Beatrix Conoway, a little girl living in the fourteenth century, has her fate sealed by the blood flowing within her veins. Little does she know that her blood will also determine the fate of the entire world many centuries later when an event occurs that is even more horrific than the one she lives through.
COVID-19: An America Changed looks back at the virus that transformed the world. Janice M. Barlow zeroes in on the day-to-day impact the virus has had on society, including debates about our response to the pandemic. She argues that some of the sticking points are old issues with new names, while others are new—especially for most of us who have never lived through a pandemic. Drawing on interviews of ill individuals, as well as data from news reports, the author paints a detailed picture of how mandates were enforced, testing was conducted, and information (and misinformation) was circulated. She also shares her own experience of getting sick in early 2020 and not being sure of its cause. For weeks, she was exhausted and miserable. While God is not the focus of this monograph, it poses an important question that should be top of mind: Where will your heart be when you meet God on the other side?
Sequestered in the wilderness, seventeen-year-old Jade Greenwood and her father, Chase, must deal with the high price placed on their lives. Their unique bloodline gives them immunity to every disease, but endangers their lives. In fact, the plasma from Jade and Chase’s blood was used to create millions of live-saving vaccines during the recent Plague-21. A sequel to the pandemic thriller, “The Last Bloodline”, “And the Stars of Heaven Fell” continues the story of Jade and her father as they embark across the Atlantic. In this chilling novel, Biblical prophecies become real, and the world is swept up in the magnitude of the horrors of the end times.
The Changing Mile, originally published in 1965, was a benchmark in ecological studies, demonstrating the prevalence of change in a seemingly changeless place. Photographs made throughout the Sonoran Desert region in the late 1800s and early 1900s were juxtaposed with photographs of the same locations taken many decades later. The nearly one hundred pairs of images revealed that climate has played a strong role in initiating many changes in the region. This new book updates the classic by adding recent photographs to the original pairs, providing another three decades of data and showing even more clearly the extent of change across the landscape. During these same three decades, abundant information about climatic variability, land use, and plant ecology has accumulated, making it possible to determine causes of change with more confidence. Using nearly two hundred additional triplicate sets of unpublished photographs, The Changing Mile Revisited utilizes repeat photographs selected from almost three hundred stations located in southern Arizona, in the Pinacate region of Mexico, and along the coast of the Gulf of California. Coarse photogrammetric analysis of this enlarged photographic set shows the varied response of the region's major plant species to the forces of change. The images show vegetation across the entire region at sites ranging in elevation from sea level to a mile above sea level. Some sites are truly arid, while others are located above the desert in grassland and woodland. Common names are used for most plants and animals (with Latin equivalents in endnotes) to make the book more accessible to non-technical readers. The original Changing Mile was based upon a unique set of data that allowed the authors to evaluate the extent and magnitude of vegetation change in a large geographic region. By extending the original landmark study, The Changing Mile Revisited will remain an indispensable reference for all concerned with the fragile desert environment.
