For over half a decade, Michael Price has written poetry as a way to orient his heart as he travels down the Christ-paved path of eternal life. In his debut volume of poetry, you are invited to peer down the road this pilgrim has traveled as you continue on your own pilgrimage. "The poems in BRUSHSTROKES, Price's first collection, are clear and direct, imbued with the light of a sincere faith. Through them, we view a heart that hungers for God and seeks to invoke His presence through the luminous gift of language. Price invites us, as readers, into the quiet 'moments' of these poems-moments mostly of praise and contemplation of both the grandest of truths and the smallest of beauties. Price does not, however, attempt to 'paint over' the darkness. There is a groaning here, of the self in correspondence both with others and with nature, as well as on their behalf. Price's sonnet, 'To My Wife,' reflects this beautifully-though never hopelessly. These poems are, overwhelmingly, poems of hope. They shine with it, and with an honest love for the One from whom all hope springs." -- Cindy Beebe, poet and freelance editor "BRUSHSTROKES is a treasure in written form. A delight to read, Price's work lets beauty jump from the page in a way that's both winsome and accessible to us everyday people." -- Chioma Usoh, Physical Therapist

Many of us think we know what the price system is, and because of this, we do not take the time to explore it to any real depth. This one mistake is perhaps the biggest reason our economy is in such bad shape. It is the reason countries around the world have the economic hardship that they face today. You can do something to help the world dig itself out from under these problems. It is said that knowing about a problem is the first step in resolving that problem. Knowing about the price system could save your economic life, your familys future, and perhaps even the planet. These are big claims, and it is hard to believe that the price system could be threatening all of these things. This book addresses those claims in a way that is easy for the reader to follow. It is not a book about accounting, as the name might suggest. It is rather about the intrigue surrounding the diabolical system that you may have thought was harmless. For many people who read it, it will be an eye-opener. Some people with vested interest in the price system would rather you not read it. This book is not written to favor them, and they stand to lose their control should you begin to see the world from a different vantage point. This vantage point could be many times more precious to your personal freedom and sense of well-being, than you could imagine. Granted you will not like some of the things you hear, but personal growth generally demands that you face some pain first. In a way, it is a self-help book, because it presents a new worldview that puts you on the spot. This is not my attempt at hype, but it is my honest attempt to encourage you to find out just what the price system really is.

Boston is a city rich in the history of residents from all walks of life, every country and every ethnicity imaginable. From 1840 to 1925, Boston's diversity created a city with a thriving nexus of people who wove together a community that reflected their own unique heritage. In this lavishly illustrated book with over 200 thought-provoking and evocative photographs, Anthony Mitchell Sammarco and Michael Price have created an important book chronicling the determination, strength, and often manifold successes of immigrants who arrived in Boston. From the mid-nineteenth century when Boston's burgeoning population included one out of every three as being foreign born, the immigrants' arrival at the East Boston docks increased greatly between 1840 and 1925, where they were to pass into the New World, and a new life. In chapters that deal with the immigrants before their arrival, their first perceptions, to where they went, worked, and played, this book outlines the ancestors of many present-day Bostonians in the evolving process of Americanization.
