Have you ever considered the meaning in the words Truth, Liberty, and Freedom? Have you wondered what it means for America to have a designed mission that demonstrates exceptionalism and manifests our destiny? Have you pondered the relationship Darwinism, Atheism, Evolution and Christianity play in the role of the American family? "America Is Calling" is one of the boldest and most forthright accounts concerning principles of liberty, truth, America, and the American family. Concepts most authors are not willing to bring out in the open, are finally shed some light. Our world today is overflowing with confusion and uncertainty and filled with economic concerns and worldwide political bickering. "America Is Calling" states the factual reasons for today's worldly conflicts. Benjamin Franklin told us our constitution is a "Republic if we can keep it." President Ronald Reagan once said "If we ever forget we are 'One Nation Under God', we will go under." When reading this book, it invites you to search your inner self for answers to questions such as; What does America really mean to me? Where do I stand when it comes to holding to "The Spirit of America"? How much am I willing to give to keep America a Republic? Opening this book will answer these questions that will change your life forever. Do not continue waiting, for "America Is Calling.

Southern California's Best Ghost Towns

A Practical Guide

By: Philip Varney

The ghost towns of Southern California-some dramatic and nearly intact, others devastated-are well worth visiting. Most are remnants of once-colorful mining towns, though there are also railroad towns, a World War II relocation center, a promoter's swindle, and a failed socialist colony. Some excellent attractions remain. One of the best-preserved stamp mills in the West is in Skidoo. Smelters, homes, stores, and the remarkable wooden American Hotel can be found in Cerro Gordo, which the author calls "California's best true ghost town." Seasoned back-roads traveler Philip Varney, who has visited nearly a hundred ghost towns in the area, provides a down-to-earth and helpful guide to more than sixty of the best in Southern California and nearby Inyo and Kern counties. He defines a ghost town as a town with a population markedly decreased from its peak, one whose initial reason for settlement no longer keeps people there. It can be completely deserted, have a resident or two, or retain genuine signs of vitality, but Varney has eliminated those towns he considers either too populated or too empty of significant remains. The sites are grouped in four chapters in Inyo County, Death Valley, the Mojave Desert and Kern River, and the regions surrounding Los Angeles and San Diego. Each chapter provides a map of the region, a ranking of sites as "major," "secondary," and "minor," information on road conditions, trip suggestions, and tips on the use of particular topographic maps for readers interested in more detailed exploration. Each entry includes directions to a town, a brief history of that town, and notes on its special points of interest. Current photographs provide a valuable record of the sometimes fragile sites. Southern California's Best Ghost Towns will be welcomed both by those who enjoy traveling off the beaten path and by those who enjoy the history of the American West.

Desert Visions and the Making of Phoenix, 1860-2009

By: Philip VanderMeer

Whether touted for its burgeoning economy, affordable housing, and pleasant living style, or criticized for being less like a city than a sprawling suburb, Phoenix, by all environmental logic, should not exist. Yet despite its extremely hot and dry climate and its remoteness, Phoenix has grown into a massive metropolitan area. This exhaustive study examines the history of how Phoenix came into being and how it has sustained itself, from its origins in the 1860s to its present status as the nation’s fifth largest city. From the beginning, Phoenix sought to grow, and although growth has remained central to the city’s history, its importance, meaning, and value have changed substantially over the years. The initial vision of Phoenix as an American Eden gave way to the Cold War Era vision of a High Tech Suburbia, which in turn gave way to rising concerns in the late twentieth century about the environmental, social, and political costs of growth. To understand how such unusual growth occurred in such an improbable location, Philip VanderMeer explores five major themes: the natural environment, urban infrastructure, economic development, social and cultural values, and public leadership. Through investigating Phoenix’s struggle to become a major American metropolis, his study also offers a unique view of what it means to be a desert city.
