Stranded by stormy weather on a small Greek Island, Lutheran Bishop meritus Martin Lönnebo created the Pearls of Life concept to guide his own prayer. He shared the idea with others and was amazed at their response and their stories of ever deepening prayer. Over 50,000 copies of the book have been sold in Sweden and Germany. The beautiful prayer bead bracelet (inserted in the book cover) is made of quality glass and ceramic beads, strung on a soft elastic cord and imported from a fair-trade manufacturer in India. The book has full-color photos throughout and describes the meaning of each

From New Babylon to Eden traces the persecution of Huguenots in France and the eventual immigration of a small bloc of the French Calvinist population to proprietary South Carolina. Once there, rather than isolate themselves as a separate religious and cultural enclave, they chose instead to integrate into the Southern strain of nascent Anglo-American society. Through intermarriage and adaptation to the new economic, religious, and political environment, Huguenots soon numbered among the most influential and successful colonists and have left a persevering legacy throughout Charleston and the

Compiled between 1900 and 1903, James Hathaway’s 1,700-page North Carolina Historical and Genealogical Register is widely regarded as the supreme collection of genealogical source materials on the Old Albemarle region of North Carolina. Although a substantial amount of data appearing in the Register was arranged in alphabetical order from the outset--the marriage bonds and lists of Revolutionary soldiers, for example--and is therefore not covered by this index, it was left to Worth S. Ray to prepare an index to the remainder of the Hathaway work. More important, Ray’s indispe

Mining in Western North Carolina played an important economic role in the lives of its people and the state’s history, but little has been recorded about the industry, especially the day-to-day trials and triumphs of the individual miner. Presented hear are the tales of old-timers as they talk about discovering huge books of mica, outrunning muck cars, and finding out in the nick of time that a mine has bad air. Marvel at Conrad Reed who found an interesting-looking rock (a seventeen-pound gold nugget) or Dr. George Kunz, vice president of Tiffany’s, who searched for hiddenite but

To travel South Carolina is to journey through American history-from the meeting place of Hernando DeSoto and the Queen of Cofitachiqui in 1540 to Albemarle Point on the Ashley River, the first permanent European settlement established by the English in 1670; from Sullivans Island, where outgunned patriots gave the American cause its first victory in 1776 to Fort Sumter, where the first shots of the Civil War were fired. In Backroads of South Carolina, the rich heritage of the state, one of the original thirteen colonies, unfolds along with its rich natural history and scenic splendors. This
