In 1974 the Chattooga River became the first river East of the Mississippi to be included in the National Wild and Scenic River System. It was included because it was a clean, free-flowing mountain stream located in a relatively undeveloped mountain environment. Forming part of the Georgia-South Carolina Border, the Chattooga is the only free-flowing portion of the Savannah River System. This book gives a comprehensive overview of the river including the topography, physiography and geology, weather and climate, human history, plant life, wildlife, and recreation opportunities.
A collection of essays, most from the 80s, but with one "post-Iraq," looking at how, in a man's world, women can make revolutionary change. "Now in this exploration, we are moving onto the ground of meta-politics. Wild, vast and more primal than the little fenced-in suburban plots of what amerikkka calls 'politics'. From the rape bordellos of the Balkans to the mass murder by AIDS in Afrika, women are being pushed to understand men's society and, most importantly, ourselves, in a different way. The longest Amazon journey begins today.

Executive Civil Defense: Planet of Yenrus is a sci-fi tale.

Just remember, it is only fiction, an adventurous comedy written for your reading pleasure.
This story begins where it ends, followed by a whimsical search for lucidity. The reader is taken for a particle infused gambol, a continuum circling spacetime. Isolation propels our hero, Thomas Sawyer. Exploring truth in blackholed fiction, our protagonist forages inward, where reflections of self-determined inevitability combine in a frenzy of mockery and contradiction. At lightspeed, redemption illuminates a champion’s folly, a fatuitous glow of expiated observance plucking strings of pity. Quarantined with the loathing of an allegorical cat, Luca, Thomas purrs a sardonic tune toward infinity, and beyond. Besieged by mirrored worlds and consumed with extinction, haunting figures swirl from Thomas’ backscattering, a fanciful fancy of infantile fantasy, nonsensical nonsense, neither fanciful, nor fancy, but fantastic. Every word punctuates an elliptical narrative woven concave toward cosmic salvation. Finally, in the end, childhood friends find reciprocity in a nearby cemetery, where Thomas peddles his last commodity, cashes his final check, and sells his essence for salvation. Simply, the story is the story.

Victory in The Storm “Fighting the good fight of faith.” 1 Timothy 6:12A KJV Victory in The Storm is an exciting and inspirational book that will help you through your fight with cancer or any illness. What you learn in this book will build up your faith and strengthen you as you heal. What I wrote is what I learned after the doctors wanted to pull the plug on me. What I wrote here is how I was able to inspire others as I got my healing victory. My prayer as you read this inspirational book is that it will build up your faith. As you read this book. I pray you will build up an expectancy and an atmosphere for miracles. As your faith increases, you will be stirred up and you will get your breakthrough. Another place you can build up your faith is by reading the Bible. Romans 10:17 ESV says, “So faith comes from hearing, and hearing through the word of Christ.” I once was in ICU for 37 days, 10 of them in a coma. The doctors gave me little hope. Several times they asked my family to pull the plug on me. The doctors gave me a death sentence, but God gave me a life sentence. He always has the final say. God said “your time, Butch Dias, is not up. You need to tell the world of My story.” I had to make a conscious choice not to listen to the doctor’s report. I read my Bible and researched every healing scripture there was in it. I spent time memorizing them and praying them over myself. I had many Bible believing friends that stuck with me and encouraged me, and prayed me through the bad days. I would learn to stand on the Word of God and in tougher times, stand more. I was blessed to have a great support system. People prayed relentlessly for me. They had “Pit Bull” faith. They would not let go of my healing promises. Miracle after miracle happened and I had to step out in faith to survive. The more I stepped out in faith, the more I got well. I learned that baby steps were still steps forward. Baby steps were just building blocks of faith. This book was written with the love and compassion to help hurting people with what I learned. This is how I found victory for my situation. Sometimes you have to position yourself to receive. A tight end in football has to run the right route to be able to receive the pass from the quarterback. He has to position himself to receive the ball or he will never get his touchdown. By releasing our faith we can create an atmosphere to receive our miracle. Praying for your miracle today and believing for your healing. Sincerely yours in Christ, Butch Dias Matthew 14:12 NASB, “When He went ashore, He saw a large crowd, and felt compassion for them and healed their sick.”

Before Crime Scene: The Texas Killing Fields on Netflix, there was The Sheriff's Son - a potential suspect for the League City murders. This true story begins on Valentine's Day, 1961. 14 years old, Claudette Carolyn Covey went missing from Hondo, Texas. On Halloween evening, 1961, Claudette's remains were discovered eight miles from town in a field. She had been shot twice in the head. From the beginning, town folks believed that she was murdered by the corrupt sheriff or his 18-year-old son, whom she was dating. Because of the corrupt sheriff's influence, no one was ever charged with the murder. The story follows the life of the sheriff's son from 1961 to his death in 1998. The son was on the edges of many similar murders of young girls in the Houston and Galveston areas-but he was never charged. After 1961, the sheriff's son was arrested twice for the rape of 12-year-old girls, essentially walking away from these charges due to the connections of his father. After the deaths of the father and son, former wives and step children, no longer terrified-came forward. They tell a horrific story of brutality, rape, incest and murder at the hands of the son. Our novel connects the dots and makes the case that a serial killer went to his grave never charged with his many crimes against young women.

Cashmere Dee Crawford was born in Kentucky and lived in New York City. At an early age, she was a very successful roller-skating champion until a car accident ended her career at fourteen years old. There was a painful and long rehabilitation period following, and she never completely recovered. It was not until four years later after graduating from high school that she decided to take a road trip and met a part-time model and waitress named Chrystal Lea Stevens who had also been a skating champion when younger. The two quickly bonded, and Chrystal decided to chase the gold again after a five-year hiatus--with Cashmere as her coach.
