Road From Hilldene chronicles the boyhood of the author on a farm in rural Virginia during the Great Depression. It tells of hard work and happy play of a time long ago. Times were lean. On the farm, there was no electricity, telephone or radio; farm work was performed with horse and mule. Harvesting hay, threshing wheat and working in the cornfields contrasted with Huck Finn-type adventures floating down the river in a leaky homemade boat with playmates. Accidents on the farm called for frantic horseback rides for the only doctor in the nearby town. The author relates the happy times along with his sadness when events force him to leave the farm. His adult career in engineering and management positions in NASA's manned space programs, Gemini, Apollo and the Space Shuttle, contrasted sharply with his simple boyhood life.

With an intensity of understanding and a straightforward wisdom, Johnny Albritton, Jr. writes poetry that is, indeed, All About Alife.In This, his debut collection of published verses, Mr. Albritton examines the spiritual and physical life of a man, and how one deals with each from day to day. His poems burst forth with images about everyday life that range in the theme form criticizing apathy to celebrating one's newfound relationship with the Lord. It is not often readers of fine religious poetry get to absorb a man's vision of the world that is not condescending but uplifting in its intent. Johnny Albritton, Jr, certainly achieves that, and much more.The poet recognizes that he and his readers have to answer to God every day, but how to do is the key. Are hearts opened in joyful song? Or the lower depths of society, those that can only cause harm, sought out? In poems such as Job the Man" "Chasing After the Wind" and "What's Going On?" to name but a few, Mr. Albritton's keen wit, sensitive lament, and define optimism are clear. In others, such as "What Happened to Justice?" and "A Prayer for Mankind" he continues to clarify today's state of affairs as he sees it, whether good or bad, right or wrong. Whatever your present state of mind, the poems in All About Life, by Johnny Albritton, Jr., have that unique ability to entertain inform and enlighten.

The Oracles of God is a message from the Word of God that teaches how to overcome evil, inherit all things, and dwell with God forever. It rebukes the powerless modern church, tells how it fell from the blessedness of God's presence into its present state, and what it must do to recover from such iniquity. The book does this in lively discourse between three friends (characters you will meet herein) and a mysterious old man who appears in their midst with a message from God. But, before he can deliver it, he must prove to them that their spiritual walk is so inadequate that they cannot even read the Bible accurately. You will chuckle as you listen to their debate.The narrative unfolds a rich, deep analysis of the Bible, with hundreds of footnotes addressing its many truths. You will be delighted by its clarity, for it demonstrates that the words of Scripture are, in reality, words from God, to be ready for what they say, not what men say they say. As they learn to do this, God's Word opens to them, and more importantly, to the reader.

Living effectively in a traditional African society requires a mastery of the nuances of communication. This is an article of existence made imperative by the time settled character of the African society. Tradition has always been the soul of the African society and rich idioms more than any other dimensions of expression constitute both the very fountain from which cultural values are reinforced and replenished. It is also the channel through which the essence of the African cultural heritage is handed down from generation to generation. African Wisdom captures as much as is possible within the boundaries of one volume the eclectic stretch of African parables, that essential vehicle that transmits African wisdom, tradition and values. Meaningful living in a typical traditional African society is not expected to be disorderly but but choreographed outing. There is a purpose to every life. It is believed that life is designed to give ample expression to the deep bond between the past and the present, the ancestors and their living progenitors, the gods and the mortal beings on the earthly plane. This emphasis on the importance of structuring a life of meaning is best captured in the African saying that " a good death is better than wasted ( efulefu) or meaningless life".African Wisdom offers an impressive articulation of the multi-dimensional, issue-specific African sayings that are either prescriptive of the higher goals and wholsesome values to which every conduct in every society is expected to conform to, or descriptive of conduct not expected of a correct head on a good neck.Wisdom is of course, not confined to any one continent. The language and idioms in which words is couched is however culture-defined and enriched. African Wisdom presents a great insight into the profound, peculiar thrust of parables and aphorisms that reflect the values and characters of traditional African societies. ]
