From the mighty cedar of the rainforest came a wealth of raw materials vital to the early Northwest Coast Indian way of life, its art and culture. For thousands of years these people developed the tools and technologies to fell the giant cedars that grew in profusion. They used the rot-resistant wood for graceful dugout canoes to travel the coastal waters, massive post-and-beam houses in which to live, steam bent boxes for storage, monumental carved poles to declare their lineage and dramatic dance masks to evoke the spirit world. Every part of the cedar had a use. The versatile inner bark they wove into intricately patterned mats and baskets, plied into rope and processed to make the soft, warm, yet water-repellent clothing so well suited to the raincoast. Tough but flexible withes made lashing and heavy-duty rope. The roots they wove into watertight baskets embellished with strong designs. For all these gifts, the Northwest Coast peoples held the cedar and its spirit in high regard, believing deeply in its healing and spiritual powers. Respectfully, they addressed the cedar as Long Life Maker, Life Giver and Healing Woman. Photographs, drawings, anecdotes, oral history, accounts of early explorers, traders and missionaries highlight the text.

Cedars In Lebanon is a two-part series on Christian character development emphasizing Believers Growth and Development through Biblical Principles. The work is informative, inspirational, and sound in Biblical truth with the goal of giving principles that can be activated in one's life to achieve and continue to develop a strong personal value system to deal with life's challenges. Developing a strong set of Biblical values in one's life is absolutely essential to meet the on-going tests that godly, righteous living presents itself. Character is the subconscious of thinking right, desiring to do right, which results in right action. These values and core principles must be planted in the heart of every believer to meet the challenges presented in one's life and to overcome them successfully. The sub-title to the original study of Cedars In Lebanon was Pentecostal Conquerors Maturity Manual. The demand and need for such teaching has become a need for all believers young and old. The need is met with this revised study that benefits all believers regardless of denominational affiliation. Times change, situations change, feelings change, but godly principles do not change. Sea-faring men guided their journeys by the North Star which remains constant and reliable. God's Word is time-tested constant and reliable in guiding one's life through the calm and rough waters of life. Be challenged, grow, mature, and develop true moral and spiritual strength of character through Cedars In Lebanon. Cedars In Lebanon can be useful in individual study, family study, and group study. The principles, values, and ideals studied, memorized, and put into active daily practice will make a difference in one's life now and throughout eternity.

In May 1776 more than two hundred Indian warriors descended the St. Lawrence River to attack Continental forces at the Cedars, west of Montreal. In just three days’ fighting, the Native Americans and their British and Canadian allies forced the American fort to surrender and ambushed a fatally delayed relief column. In Down the Warpath to the Cedars, author Mark R. Anderson flips the usual perspective on this early engagement and focuses on its Native participants—their motivations, battlefield conduct, and the event’s impact in their world. In this way, Anderson’s work establishes and explains Native Americans’ centrality in the Revolutionary War’s northern theater. Anderson’s dramatic, deftly written narrative encompasses decisive diplomatic encounters, political intrigue, and scenes of brutal violence but is rooted in deep archival research and ethnohistorical scholarship. It sheds new light on the alleged massacre and atrocities that other accounts typically focus on. At the same time, Anderson traces the aftermath for Indian captives and military hostages, as well as the political impact of the Cedars reaching all the way to the Declaration of Independence. The action at the Cedars emerges here as a watershed moment, when Indian neutrality frayed to the point that hundreds of northern warriors entered the fight between crown and colonies. Adroitly interweaving the stories of diverse characters—chiefs, officials, agents, soldiers, and warriors—Down the Warpath to the Cedars produces a complex picture, and a definitive account, of the Revolutionary War’s first Indian battles, an account that significantly expands our historical understanding of the northern theater of the American Revolution.
