By Hope Tod ISBN: 978-1-883378-01-1 In the early 1940s, when the vast majority of men in the English labour force entered military service, thousands of women joined the Women’s Land Army to carry on with the agricultural work in support of their country. Hope Tod lovingly describes the simple joys she found working outdoors, on the land, and in close harmony with animals—even during a time of war. The experience led her to go on with dairy farming, caring for animals, and the world of nature after her volunteer national service ended. Time Beyond Time is a tenderly crafted memoir of bygone days in rural England—of the period when machinery and mechanization were just beginning to usurp the central role animals had always played on small farms.

By A. R. Eguiguren ISBN: 1-883378-45-1 What would the literary world be like with an army of James Joyces? To find out, someone needs to get hired: Reed Lodge—lab assistant, grocery-store clerk, tear-sheet manager, neon-sign apprentice, genetic genealogist, failed writer, diet-shake mixer, jack of all trades. At $5,000 every two weeks, who is he to complain about overpaid employees? But even a dream job can turn into a purposeless chore.

By John Fulton Lewis ISBN: 1-883378-83-4 China is the only likely power capable of rivaling the United States in both military might and the conduct of world affairs. China is a nation on the move—marching towards full modernization at a pace that suggests it will be to the twenty-first century what the U.S.A. was to the twentieth, when it comes to international importance and regional domination. The United States, among all Western countries, has the most need for understanding China. And under standing China’s revolutionary decades from 1895 to 1925 is crucial to understanding the China of today. China's Great Convulsion provides an overview for that understanding.

By A. R. Eguiguren ISBN: 1-883378-96-6 Global warming? New Greenland is not waiting on the international community to do something about it. One day, as a citizen of the country, you are watching TV in the comfort of your home, and the power goes out. Then you find out the government that you elected is responsible for shutting down all power plants in New Greenland, on purpose. They don't want you to watch TV, drive a car, eat at restaurants, or go to the movies. In fact, they've decided to force all citizens to leave their homes in the cities and join environmental communities on remote farms. No running water. No central heat. No entertainment. Forced back to basics. That's New Greenland. See who survives.
