'Beckoning - Beyond the Horizon' is a sequel to, but very different from 'Beckoning - Poetry of Life'.Taken together, the two, mainly non-fiction books, cover aspects of life which impact most, if not all of us, at some stage.The first significant difference is the inclusion of a black and white photograph opposite each page of writing/poetry. The author was previously a freelance photographer.Each photograph relates to the title opposite, making for an enhanced reading experience. Additionally, all the photographs were shot in the three northwestern states of Mexico - Chihuahua, Sonora and Baja California. As such, they also provide some sense of that part of the world. The area is nicely 'Beyond the Horizon' of the author's home in Sierra Vista, Arizona.The second major difference is the format. The book is the author's creation of a circle of writing where each item moves gradually on from the previous subject until, on reaching the last, one is connected straight back to the first. A sense of this will be gained by scanning the 'Contents' pages. The objective of both books is to provide very condensed and, hopefully, insightful and positive thought stimulation for anyone exploring their personal philosophy of life. For busy people there could be a huge time saving, compared with researching many of the subjects.Both books are indexed for readily accessing any subject of interest. In that sense, reading may be sequential or as research material by finding the specific subject relevant to life events, at any particular time in life.The launch price is at approximately a 25% discount from the retail price from early June 2020 onwards.
