TRAVELING BLIND

Letty Lozano

 

The journey toward future joy and a deeper Christian faith as a survivor of suicide ...

Traveling Blind is written especially for those who have experienced the suicide of a loved one, and are unable to find comfort and answers they need in the secular and more conventional forms of therapy or support groups. Such survivors need someone to listen without judgement, to offer encouragement, courage, strength of mind and most of all, assurance that He will never abandon them.

Letty Lozano's memoir was born out of the responses she recieved from readers of her blog entries written after the suicide of her husband.

To Truckee's Trail

Celia Hayes

 

 

The greatest pioneer adventure never told ... until now!

In the year of 1844, a party of fifty men, women and children set out for California. They walked two thousand miles, across trackless plain and desert, fording rivers and climbing mountains. They found a new trail through the wilderness, hoisted their wagons up a sheer cliff, were caught by the winter snows and faced starvation, with nothing to rely on but their own courage and trust in each other. These are their stories; the doctor-diarist and party co-leader, the old mountain-man who guided them, the feisty woman with her brood of children who means to rejoin her husband in California, the taciturn wagon master... all inexorably drawn to Truckee's Trail!.

DEEP IN THE HEART

Celia Hayes

 

A woman with many friends - but few of them would ever know her heart!

Two husbands, a large house, many friends - that was predicted for Margaret Becker Vining; that she would be a widow, left to raise her four sons in a tiny frontier town, was not mentioned in the old conjure-woman's prophecy. Austin, the makeshift capital city of the Republic of Texas, was threatened and besieged from all sides. Peace did not come with Sam Houston's victory over the Mexican Army at San Jacinto. Between old and bitter enemies and the inconstancy of unreliable friends, Margaret Becker Vining, her family, and her friends must fight to maintain their independence and security . . . while Margaret herself despairs of ever finding happiness again.

Adelsverein: The Complete Trilogy

Celia Hayes

 

The Adelsverein Trilogy, now combined in a single hardbound edition, is a saga of family and community loyalties, and the challenge of building a new life on the hostile frontier. They came from Germany to Texas in 1847, under the auspices of the "Mainzer Adelsverein" - the society of noblemen of Mainz, who tried to fill a settlement in Texas with German farmers and craftsmen. Christian "Vati" Steinmetz, the clockmaker of Ulm in Bavaria, has brought his sons and daughters: Magda - passionate and courageous, courted by Carl Becker, a young frontiersman with a dangerous past. Her sister Liesel wants nothing more than to be a good wife to her husband Hansi, a stolid and practical farmer called by circumstances to be something greater, in the boom years of the great cattle ranches. Their brothers Friedrich and Johann, have always been close - in the Civil War, one will wear Union blue, the other Confederate grey homespun - but never forget they are brothers. And finally, there is Vati's adopted daughter Rosalie, whose life ends as it began - in tragedy. But Vati's family will will survive and ultimately triumph. They will make their mark in Texas, their new land. Adelsverein: It's about love and loss, joy and grief . . . and the sometimes wrenching process of becoming American.

DAUGHTER OF TEXAS

Celia Hayes

 

Before the cattle drives and before the Alamo. Before the legends were born; she was there and she saw it all!

On the day that she was twelve years old, Margaret Becker came to Texas with her parents and her younger brothers. The witch-woman looked at her hands and foretold her future; two husbands, a large house, many friends, joy, sorrow and love. The witch woman would not say what she saw for Margaret's younger brothers, Rudi and Carl – for Texas was a Mexican colony. Before the Becker children were full-grown, the war for Texas independence would come upon them all and show no mercy.

During her life, she would observe and participate in great events. She would meet and pass her own judgment on great men and lesser men as well; a loyal friend, able political hostess ... and at the end, a survivor and witness. But in all of her life, there would be only one man who would ever hold and break her heart!
