And That’S the Truth!

Meaningful Fiction to Stimulate Your Mind and Nurture Your Soul

By: Carl W. McClure

And Thats the Truth! Meaningful fiction to stimulate your mind and nurture your soul is a treasury of short fiction stories. Most of the narrators in Part One are animals talking about themselves. You learn how dozens of animals live, eat, and survive through dialogue and description. Look, too, for inanimate objects to spring to life and talk about themselves: a houseplant, a stop sign, a dollar bill, and others. Part Two gives you traditional fictional stories with lively characters and believable or not-so-believable storylines. All of the stories leave you with a nugget of wisdom or a bit of a chuckle. Sprinkled throughout Part Two are a few short articles of general interest non-fiction. Whether you read the stories in order or at random, you will come away enriched with inspirational and encouraging accounts that stimulate your mind and nurture your soul.

Fleeing Falmouth

A Novel of Courage and Insight

By: Carl W. McClure

Janiana and Henry Hocking of Falmouth, England are in a terrible way. The spring rains and summer heat have all but destroyed their annual crops. Making matters worse is the hurricane that sweeps over the island that fall of 1859. Together with their equally poor neighbors, Clive and Harriet Murley, they struggle against the weather and the manorial system under Queen Victoria. The hurricane is a blessing in disguise, for it provides an escape from their impasse. The Cheryl Belle, a sailing ship caught by the storm in the Channel, takes refuge in Falmouth Harbor. Through great effort and no small amount of luck, the families book passage to New York on the ship. Disease, hardship, and personal tragedy curse the voyage, but they emerge to begin a new life in a new country. Narrated by a most unusual character, and punctuated by a cavalcade of succinct commentaries, Fleeing Falmouth is a rich source of nineteenth century English history. Immerse yourself in it to learn how the families go on to farm once more, only to be torn apart by yet another calamity in their new home.
