Stories of My Life: Ivan Clifford Morgan is a collection of fascinating remembrances chronicling 91 years of a life well lived. Recounting the sometimes harrowing history of his first ancestor in Canada. pioneer, John Matthews, Ivan Morgan relives childhood adventures from Ontario to Saskatchewan, ushers skeletons out of the closet, reveals historic, heart rendering glimpses of World War II, and even provides recipes from "Ivan, the cook!" His vignettes run the gamut, from romantic to humorous to inspiring, with true tales of mystery, invention, spiritual insight, tragedy and triumph. From these autobiographical scenes of the 20th Century life, a picture emerges of a remarkable man through brushstrokes of youth, marriage, family, a distinguished public service career in ministry and education, and a productive retirement. Woven into these pages are the threads of a generous life of a man who loved greatly, and was greatly loved.
JOGGING THROUGH SPACE tells the story of the author's courageous journey in recovering from the long-term effects of life-threatening brain tumo(u)r surgery. As she researched therapeutic mind-body techniques for dealing with each physical, mental, emotional and spiritual challenge, she finally came to realize that she had compiled a simple handbook of 60 key pathways to feeling better. In this book, she presents each pathway clearly and concisely, showing how she came upon it-- techniques which anyone can use who is feeling persistent challenges in their life. "JOGGING THROUGH SPACE is an anti-depressant between two covers. Mary Morgan McKnight, in a day-to-day account of her remarkable experience with nearly devastating brain surgery, describes the strategies she devised to cope with its effects. This book's vignettes of courage, love and kindness reveal the ability of the human spirit to not only survive adversity, but to build from it." -- Robin Brown M.D. "I am so impressed with Mary McKnight's book, JOGGING THROUGH SPACE. It is absolutely unique and beautiful -- like nothing else I've seen! It would be most effective for anyone who is depressed, hurting, dealing with pain management, or just wanting to improve their life and be inspired. The book is as lovely and gentle as is Mary. " -- PMH Atwater, Author, COMING BACK TO LIFE and BEYOND THE LIGHT. "Mary Morgan McKnight's JOGGING THROUGH SPACE" is a refreshing reminder of how precious life is, and how frail and vulnerable all of us are at times. I keep this book next to my desk and take the time daily to read a few pages to anchor its honest, candid observations and suggestions. This book is a priceless treasure of sincerity and simplicity." --Tom Matters, U.S. Marine Corps Veteran
