I have always been a fan of history, especially military history. However, I have found that the military history of African Americans in the defense of America has had very little written about it, and in some cases, their deeds and accomplishment were completely omitted. This book is a brief look at some of their accomplishments. Americans of every race should remember and take pride in the courage of Crispus Attucks at the Boston Massacre, the bravery of Peter Salem at the Battle of Bunker Hill, the unselfish sacrifices of John R. Fox on December 26, 1944, at the Italian village of Sommocolonia, and the heroic deed of Dorie Miller aboard the USS West Virginia on December 7, 1941, during the attack on Peral Harbor. When we remember these acts of courage, devotion to duty, and paying the ultimate sacrifice, we realize that the African American’s military contributions goes far beyond digging ditches and serving meals aboard ships. It is my hope that the readers of this book will be encouraged to explore more information on America’s history. America’s history includes all Americans.

The Legend Unleashed
Scott Smithfield knew he was in for one hell of a summer since purchasing his new RV that he teasingly christened “The Titanic.” Unbeknownst to him, that doomed name foretold events Scott couldn’t imagine in his darkest nightmares.
The annual camping party started off good when leaving the city but deteriorated upon entering the mountains. Not to be deterred, the group pushes on. Upon discovering that their usual campground is closed, they go in search of another site and become hopelessly lost on the winding and treacherous roads of the Rocky Mountains.
From the first night, things go awry as their campfire stories seem to take on a life of their own. The blood curdling screeches that echo in the night come closer and closer, encircling them.
A dark family secret is revealed, and the group realizes they are being systematically hunted – hunted by something strong enough to punch through the temporal plane.
Their fear turns to stark terror as the closer they get to discovering the truth, the closer they get to becoming victims of the legend unleashed.
Aesthetics and the Divine
"Rabbi Cowen's creative engagement with these contemporary artists reveals how spirituality can enhance the power of the visual image, the emotional persuasiveness of the literary text, and the neurological impact of music …" – Mel Alexenberg, formerly Professor of Art at Columbia University<br /> <br />In the realm of contemporary aesthetic high culture, there are many painters, writers and composers of great talent, but few with deep religious knowledge and belief. In the realm of faith, there are many with deep belief and religious knowledge, but very few with developed great artistic talent. Is there some way of making good the absent but essential combination of artistic prowess and religious depth required to produce great religious artworks in the various artistic media?<br /> <br />In response to this question, this book addresses the theory and practice of engaging significant artists – not necessarily religiously learned or committed – to draw forth from them genuinely religious high art. After exploring the concept of the religious artwork, it documents three religious-creative encounters through which important religious artworks emerged, in the realms of painting, literature and music. It concludes with thoughts on the methodology and kinds of successful engagements between religion and aesthetics – with broader implications for education to religious art.
