LIFE. A provisional loving place, with contrasting experiences that shape our perception of how we choose to view the world. LIFE. A still camera capturing moments of sunshine and rain, joy and pain. LIFE. It begins with an empty canvas that awaits your artistry of: failure and success, loss and gain, love and hate, sickness and health. Within the pages of this book, my desire is to take you on my personal journey of LIFE. Intrepid Hope is a true, authentic and powerful display of how HOPE alters our lives and allows us to overcome the greatest of obstacles. While no one is exonerated from the pain life can often present, I pray this book speaks directly to your heart and allows you to discover the champion that has, and forever will, I've inside of you.

This is the story of Intrepid’s 7 year voyage of adventure and exploration, not a race or rally. We chose to go to some of the most interesting and remote places in the world, and once there tried to get under the surface of what life is really like in these unique places. We travelled with friends, some experienced, some novices who shared thrilling sails, in violent winds and calms, and learned the meaning of self-sufficiency – when you are 2000 miles from land if something breaks you fix it or it stays broken. And you have to plan for everything from food, water, fuel, medical emergencies, spare parts, communications. This story is written as it happens, with the highs and lows, the excitement and the near misses, and the fascinating people we met. Starting in the Canaries, Intrepid crosses the Atlantic, through the Panama Canal to Galapagos, then remote Marquesas Pacific islands and atolls to Tahiti, Bora Bora, Samoa, Tonga, Fiji, Vanuatu, New Caledonia, Australia, Indonesia, Singapore, Malaysia, Thailand, historic Indian Andaman Islands, Sri Lanka, Maldives, Oman, Yemen (narrowly avoiding pirates), and up the Red Sea to Turkey. Andy Gibb is a psychologist, Nicky a hydrogeologist, and with friends they describe a voyage of adventure, wildlife and insight.

Glendora is a small rural town located in the heart of the Mississippi Delta. Th e people of the town take pride in living in a quiet, close-knit community where everybody knows their neighbors. However, like many small rural towns in the South, Glendora inherited the eff ects of slavery, Jim Crow, and poverty, in addition to having the unfortunate experience of being the town where a fourteen-year-boy named Emmett Till was brutally murdered and thrown into the Black Bayou that energized the Civil Rights Movement in America. Th is book tells a story about the struggle of this small town to rise above a mountain of despair that plagued the town for decades to a stone of hope that Dr. Martin Luther King Jr. mentioned in his famous I Have A Dream speech in Washington, DC, in August 1963. For the past four decades, Glendoras hope for a brighter future has rested in the hands of Johnny B. Th omas, who rose from the son of sharecroppers on a local plantation to the mayor of the town. When Th omas became mayor, he inherited a town that had been ravaged by the eff ects of poverty, neglect, isolation, a heritage of plantation sharecropping servitude, and a culture of racial suppression of the civil rights of African Americans. Th is book provides a historical account of the struggles and challenges that Mayor Th omas faced in building the Emmett Till Museum to promote education about civil rights, and to promote cultural tourism to generate much needed revenue for community development in Glendora. Th is book also includes much information about the rich history and culture of the people of Glendora as they continue their journey to become one of the stones of hope in the Mississippi Delta.
