Summary

In Pennsylvania's anthracite coal region, a once-prosperous industry leaves a legacy of environmental destruction, social strife, and human tragedy. The Schuylkill River's devastating transformation mirrors the tumultuous lives of mining families caught between nature's force and their desperate struggles for wealth. Intersecting stories of miners, magnates, and organized crime reveal a tapestry of ambition and corruption, while ordinary lives, like Martha's and Hermie's, are ensnared by larger forces. Rendered with poignancy, it's a tale of resilience amid the rush for coal-fired prosperity, shedding light on ambition's dark underbelly and humanity's quest for justice in the shadows of industrial decay.

    Will we choose life for our children and the future of our planet? Everywhere we look, we see signs that all is not right with our earth: Extreme weather patterns wreak havoc. Pollutants sour soils and waterways. Fires and floods ravage land and communities. Climate change is just a symptom of a larger ecological crisis. If we want change, the solutions can’t come through the same systems that created those problems. ​ Ecological justice requires us to challenge our assumptions about creation and our relationship to it. It requires decolonization. We must turn to the leadership of Indigenous communities who struggle for all life as land and water protectors, and we must call on people of faith to join them—to confront climate change and resource extraction and choose life for our children and the future of our planet. This book offers hope for a better future alongside concrete actions for joining with Indigenous Peoples to protect life and negotiate with decision-makers for sustainable change that follows Jesus.

    Much is expected of a merfolk princess, and being a lesbian is not one of them. 
      
    Laela’s adventurous spirit and curiosity — sexual and otherwise — takes her far from the palace and prying eyes to explore the shipwrecks on the ocean floor. Out there, she has the privacy to experience her first time with another mermaid, and she believes her secret is safe — until her lover betrays her, selling their secret to the highest bidder. 
      
    On the brink of being forced into a marriage to a merman, Laela takes one last exploration voyage to a freshly sunk vessel. The first on the scene, Laela has the pick of the spoils — including a beautiful human woman, preserved alive in the hull of the ship. 
      
    After experiencing true bliss, will Laela be able to return to the palace, or will her magically inclined mentor be able to help her pass as a human on the surface?

    In this controversial book, Kersey Graves presents a historical and comparative analysis of the concept of Satan in various religious traditions. The book explores the origins of the devil figure, tracing its roots in ancient mythologies and religious beliefs. "The Biography of Satan" challenges conventional religious interpretations and sheds light on the diverse and evolving perceptions of evil and temptation throughout human history. Key Aspects of the Book "The Biography of Satan": Religious History: Graves' book provides a comprehensive study of the concept of Satan in different religious and mythological contexts. The author examines the symbolic significance and interpretations of Satan in ancient and modern belief systems. Controversial Perspectives: "The Biography of Satan" presents alternative viewpoints on the devil figure, encouraging readers to critically examine religious narratives and their cultural implications. Kersey Graves is best known for his controversial works on comparative religion, mythology, and freethought. Graves' writings challenged conventional religious beliefs and sought to promote a more rational and humanistic worldview. His works, including "The Biography of Satan," contributed to discussions on the evolution of religious ideas and the role of mythology in shaping cultural beliefs. The Biography of Satan is a lovely collection of lore, logic, and philosophy, dating to the middle of the rational days of the 19th century. Within this work, Kersey Graves lays waste to the doctrine of eternal Hell and the very concept of a Satan, claiming that it is, within proper tradition, the Christian god himself who is the architect of evil and suffering. With numerous references to linguistics, pagan lore, and then-modern historical science, Graves' work deserves far more attention from the world at large; and for those interested in the occult, and in magic, the comprehension of proper demonology requires such concepts to be understood.
