It was 1942, and Theodora, a charming Dutch/Indonesian teenager, was uprooted from her pampered East Indies upbringing and forced to live in one of many desperate, disease-infested concentration camps set up by the occupying Japanese army. A few years later, her life was plunged into danger again from the angry Indonesian nationalists on the hunt for anyone with Dutch blood. Arriving in The Netherlands, her “mother country,” Theodora thought she had found safe haven, but was to face an epic deluge when the North Sea burst through the existing dams and flooded her quaint Dutch village.          A prisoner, refugee, immigrant, and survivor, Theodora’s story is one of faith, forgiveness and reconciliation. You will witness an untold chapter in history as you are inspired by one amazing woman’s testimony of grit and grace.  

"What an Awesome God we serve" At the risk of sounding like a modern day zealot, I am prepared to shout this truth from the highest rooftop.I freely speak of God's awesomeness when I look back at the unwavering faith He gave to my grandmother, my mother, and me as we walked through the fiery furnaces of the Jim Crow era of accepted- although ignorant-segregation of people of color.Ignorance is not bliss as some would have us believe, but merely a coping mechanism designed to keep vulnerable segments of society in darkness and a super-imposed way to deal with societal induced pain.To have come away with a genuine love for my brothers and sisters in Christ; no matter their color and to know that the God I serve gave us the life tools to work with, making the journey while raising our children, nothing short of miraculous is paramount.It is my prayer that everyone who reads this book, will also come away with a deeper love for God and our fellow man. Remember and apply this truth daily to your walk with Christ that "God is no respecter of persons." Acts 10:34C.B. Porter

On a June morning in Saskawan, Michigan, 84-year-old columnist Iris VanWingen discovers a runaway monkey in the barn of her tumble-down urban farm. She is not pleased. In fact, her searing diatribe aimed at "that pathetic menagerie next door" stirs up opposition to Ridge Park Zoo's plans for expansion. It will be up to Caroline Finch, the zoo's new and untested spokesperson, to control the damage and placate the opinionated (and frankly scary) Mrs. VanWingen. But before the summer ends, the two women uncover a sinister conspiracy that threatens them both. What Iris and Caroline learn from each other and from ten-year-old junior zookeeper Rafael Rojas, sets them on a dangerous quest to save the land, the wildlife and the people they love.

Tom and Glykeria share memories of their early years living as goat herders in a remote mountain village in Greece as their daughter-in-law, Christine, documents their probably-true tales of winters without shoes, baths without soap, schools without classrooms, recipes without measurements - and so much more! Continuously recording on her laptop, Christine is entertained by (and fed by) her in-laws as she interrogates them about everything she can think of, hearing stories about their youth from the time they are toddlers until the day they get married. While Tom and Glykeria’s early life experiences are often unimaginable adventures, their engaging personalities, their love for family, and their occasional back-and-forth bickering are totally relatable. Anyone with relatives from the old country will thoroughly enjoy this hilarious and heartfelt account of communicating with family members who have semi-understandable English and an unbelievable history.

This book was originally published in hardcover by Cambridge University Press.Rhetoric and Representation in Nonfiction Film provides a clear and compelling introduction to the basic theoretical issues that ground any in-depth study of documentary film and video. Exploring the legitimacy of the distinction between fiction and nonfiction, Carl Plantinga characterizes the documentary in a new way. He examines the uses of moving photographic images and recorded sounds in documentary communication, and describes the implications of various structural and stylistic choices. He explores the notion of voice, the overall nature and functions of objectivity, reflexivity and truth-telling. Rhetoric and Representation in Nonfiction Film offers a "critical realist" perspective on these issues and thus offers an alternative to post-modernist and post-structuralist theories of the documentary.
