From the hills of Missouri to the top of the Twin Towers, and from the Florida swamps to the Brazilian beaches, God has refused to let His daughter get bored. Through life, loss, dreams, and disasters, He has proven His love and faithfulness.

Her parents and grandparents taught her by example how to deal with life when it got difficult-how to laugh at the ridiculous and find joy in the simple things.

Motherhood brought immeasurable joy, lots of laughter, and pain beyond expression. She had to trust the Lord to "give his angels charge" over her children to keep them safe...

This book is a compelling collection of a fictional cop's reminiscences, which really captures the essence of what it was like to be a police officer in a small northwest town, spanning a fascinating period of time . . . from back in the 1960s (when they still used typewriters and carbon copies of reports), through the 1970s and early 1980s (computers and, horror of horrors, women officers). The author's voice, sometimes down-and-dirty, other times tinged with appealingly macho humor, rings completely true as he tells the tale of Ron O'Shea.

Tom Coffman's portrait of Edward Nakamura is both insightful biography and engrossing political history. The arc of the story may sound familiar (the 442nd Regimental Combat Team, the GI Bill, Statehood), but it is strewn with surprise, resulting from Nakamura's unshakable creed and unique angle of vision.

Translating the political gains of the International Longshore and Warehouse Union, Nakamura played a central role--unpublicized--in devising arguably the most progressive program of legislation in an American state: universal health care, temporary disability insurance, collective...
