Avalanche of the Shackles unravels the struggle of a strong female protagonist who instills the ethics of forgiveness, humility, philanthropy in a world fraught with social castigation, border lines and the politics of divide and rule. This novel is one woman's courageous quest to uncover the murder of a teenage girl whose heart was gored out to replace the ailing heart of a prominent man's son. The novel brings to life the oral tradition embedded in African-American literature, its rich doctrines of historical storytelling as seen by Missy's household. Missy is the protagonist who changed her name to escape her exiled past because of her status in the community. She returns back to the land that once ostracized her to embark in full scale production, but finds herself and all her brood enslaved by the prominent man in her community. A twist of fate, however, ushers her surprises. She faces the after-effects of the Ngene Iji war while she endures the challenges of raising other people's children. She makes astonishing achievements that endear her to the entire community where she runs an orphanage and builds a home for the mentally ill. The Avalanche is the sequel to the biographical and historical sketch of the caste system that was brushed on in the Shackles of Oruku Threats. The Shackles dabbled in men's leading role in the politics of caste and class.

Have you ever wondered what left behind those prints and tracks on the seashore, or what made those marks or dug those holes in the dunes? Life Traces of the Georgia Coast is an up-close look at these traces of life and the animals and plants that made them. It tells about how the tracemakers lived and how they interacted with their environments. This is a book about ichnology (the study of such traces) and a wonderful way to learn about the behavior of organisms, living and long extinct. Life Traces presents an overview of the traces left by modern animals and plants in this biologically rich region; shows how life traces relate to the environments, natural history, and behaviors of their tracemakers; and applies that knowledge toward a better understanding of the fossilized traces that ancient life left in the geologic record. Augmented by illustrations of traces made by both ancient and modern organisms, the book shows how ancient trace fossils directly relate to modern traces and tracemakers, among them, insects, grasses, crabs, shorebirds, alligators, and sea turtles. The result is an aesthetically appealing and scientifically grounded book that will serve as source both for scientists and for anyone interested in the natural history of the Georgia coast.

This book will tell all you need to know about British English spelling. It's a reference work intended for anyone interested in the English language, especially those who teach it, whatever the age or mother tongue of their students. It will be particularly useful to those wishing to produce well-designed materials for teaching initial literacy via phonics, for teaching English as a foreign or second language, and for teacher training. English spelling is notoriously complicated and difficult to learn; it is correctly described as much less regular and predictable than any other alphabetic orthography. However, there is more regularity in the English spelling system than is generally appreciated. This book provides, for the first time, a thorough account of the whole complex system. It does so by describing how phonemes relate to graphemes and vice versa. It enables searches for particular words, so that one can easily find, not the meanings or pronunciations of words, but the other words with which those with unusual phoneme-grapheme/grapheme-phoneme correspondences keep company. Other unique features of this book include teacher-friendly lists of correspondences and various regularities not described by previous authorities, for example the strong tendency for the letter-name vowel phonemes (the names of the letters ) to be spelt with those single letters in non-final syllables.
