Synopsis Goin' Back in Time For a Visit With Ancestors by : David Halsey
Stories in this book should make it easier to virtually travel back in time to a past where we can imagine what emotions were experienced by our ancestors during some of their life events. These stories provide a small window into some of those experiences that formed who they were to a small degree. They acted as we would have acted under similar circumstances but by a different set of values that defined their "time", not ours. Maybe when reading some of these stories, it might remind you of a family member that you know. For example at my age when I look into a mirror I see my father. I'm sure I have inherited many of his characteristics since he was my first and most important teacher/mentor. My ancestors, who are the subjects of these stories, discovered, as we have, that the world of our youth expands quickly as we mature and leave the nest.

Synopsis Maps by : John Sladek
Maps is the definitive collection of John Sladek's uncollected work put together by his friend, fellow writer and critic David Langford who also provides an introduction. It includes all the solo stories - science fiction, detective puzzles, mainstream, "non-fact" pieces - as well as poems, playlets, pseudonymous fiction, all the short collaborations with Thomas M. Disch (including three never previously published) and some witty autobiographical essays. Sladek, was as good a writer of satire as Vonnegut, and without the Vonnegut mannerisms. Unfortunately he never received the appropriate credit, except from a small following of devoted readers.

Synopsis Sleeping with the Ancestors by : Joseph McGill Jr.
In this enlightening personal account, one man tells the story of his groundbreaking project to sleep overnight in former slave dwellings that still stand across the country—revealing the fascinating history behind these sites and shedding light on larger issues of race in America. Joseph McGill Jr., a historic preservationist and Civil War reenactor, founded the Slave Dwelling Project in 2010 based on an idea that was sparked and first developed in 1999. Since founding the project, McGill has been touring the country, spending the night in former slave dwellings—throughout the South, but also the North and the West, where people are often surprised to learn that such structures exist. Events and gatherings are arranged around these overnight stays, and it provides a unique way to understand the often otherwise obscured and distorted history of slavery. The project has inspired difficult conversations about race in communities from South Carolina to Alabama to Texas to Minnesota to New York, and all over the United States. Sleeping with the Ancestors focuses on all of the key sites McGill has visited in his ongoing project and digs deeper into the actual history of each location, using McGill’s own experience and conversations with the community to enhance those original stories. Altogether, McGill and coauthor Herb Frazier give readers an important unexpected emersion into the history of slavery, and especially the obscured and ignored aspects of that history.

Synopsis Sync My World: Thief's Honor GA SK (Paperback Edition) by : Rodney St. Michael
This is chapter two to ten of a three-part series discussing the astrophysical cause of mental and biological conditions such as schizophrenia, bipolar disorder, MPD syndrome, autism, homosexuality, personality, gender, "race" and so forth. It also analyzes the correspondence of these conditions to humanity in general and concludes that all the activities of people stem from astrophysically-caused gender elements that conduct people's lives from their socio-physiological behavior, to their security, spiritual and political needs. It also observes the convergence of these elements that lead to relative peace.
