Meet the producers, chefs and entrepreneurs who helped expand Milwaukee’s palate and pushed the scene to the forefront of the farm-to-fork movement. Milwaukee native and food writer Lori Fredrich serves up the story of a bustling blue-collar town that became a mecca for food lovers and a rising star in the sphere of urban farming.

  The power of love can save a life…One rainy night on the Zambian savannah, a mother’s heart moves the hand of God. From a land laid waste by disease and drought emerges this incredible story of courage, suffering, and the ultimate triumph of the power of God’s love. This is the true story of an infant born in the bush of southern Zambia at the height of the worst drought in years. That tiny life was awaiting the traditional burial—lying on the chest of her mother, who died during delivery. For months the relentless claw of death would try to snatch another victim, but God had a purpose for her life. Through Tedd Galloway’s eloquent and inspiring words you will learn that God’s timing is perfect, but not always understood, that genuine Christian love is colorblind, that love is costly and can be painful, also that every life is precious to God, and the cost of loving doesn’t compare to the joy that comes. Our world would be a different place if God’s people saw each other through the eyes of the mother in this story. Be inspired as you read about the body of Christ not just talking about loving each other, but actually demonstrating it.

  Adventurer, B.A.S.E jumper, endurance athlete and writer, Luke Richmond is a man on a mission: to cram as much living into his lifetime as humanly possible. 
  As an overweight and bullied youth, he seemed destined to be the underdog, but fought back until his tormentors were cast aside. From the Australian outback, to climbing some of the biggest mountains on earth, to rowing across the Atlantic Ocean, his enthusiasm and passion for adventure is infectious. 
  This is the blistering first-hand account of his most recent expeditions; including a 57 day 1805 kilometre crossing of the Gobi Desert on foot, kayaking the 2220 kilometre length of the Murray River and an ocean row to New Zealand that doesn’t quite go to plan. Within these pages he also shares his lessons from the edge about controlling fear, high risk decision making and how to travel around Australia for free. 
  So hold on tight, you’re in for a wild ride with the man who has become known as the Tasmanian Dare Devil.
