Beschreibung

In "Reed Anthony, Cowman: An Autobiography," Andy Adams presents a vivid narrative that immerses readers into the rugged world of cattle ranching in the American West during the late 19th century. Employing a straightforward yet evocative literary style, Adams combines authenticity with rich detail, depicting the trials and triumphs of his protagonist, Reed Anthony. This semi-autobiographical work serves not only as a personal account but also as a cultural document, reflecting the challenges of ranch life, the relationship between humans and nature, and the transformative power of the American landscape in post-Civil War society. Andy Adams, born in 1870, lived through the rise of cattle ranching and its cultural significance in the United States. His firsthand experiences as a cowboy and ranch manager enabled him to portray the creeds and characters of the era with remarkable insight and fidelity. Drawing on his own life and the social realities of his time, Adams seeks to honor the rugged dignity of those who shaped the American frontier, blending historical accuracy with compelling storytelling. For readers interested in Western literature, "Reed Anthony, Cowman" stands as a quintessential text that delves into the heart of cowboy culture and the struggles of frontier life. This engaging autobiography is highly recommended for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of America's pastoral legacy and the indomitable spirit of its pioneers.

    Known as the godfather of the civil rights movement, Howard Thurman served as a spiritual adviser to Martin Luther King Jr. and other leaders and activists in the 1960s. Thurman championed silence, contemplation, common unity, and nonviolence as powerful dimensions of social change. But Dr. Lerita Coleman Brown didn't learn about him during her years of spiritual-direction training. Only when a friend heard of her longing to encounter the work of Black contemplatives did she finally learn about Thurman, his mystical spirituality, and his liberating ethic. 
     
     
     
    In What Makes You Come Alive, Brown beckons listeners into their own apprenticeship with Thurman. Brown walks with us through Thurman's inimitable life and commitments as he summons us into centering down, encountering the natural world, paying attention to sacred synchronicity, unleashing inner authority, and recognizing the genius of the religion of Jesus. We learn from Thurman's resilience in the psychologically terrorizing climate of the Jim Crow South, his encounters with Quakers and with Mahatma Gandhi, and his sense of being guided by the Spirit. Each chapter illuminates an aspect of Thurman's work and includes reflection questions and spiritual practices.

At the age of 49, Sean’s life is abruptly disrupted by the stroke, which results in a significant loss of memory and cognitive abilities.
