New Memoir Shares Inspirational Story of Family’s Path to Success – Book by Thomas & Betty Jones

It’s not easy raising a family of any size, much less one with seven children, but Thomas and Betty Jones succeeded. This new family memoir tells the story of these two determined parents and their struggles to raise their children in the barren and desolate coal mining camps of southwest Virginia. Their remarkable achievement – sending all seven children to college and preparing them to find success outside of Wise County – is a testament to their resolve, faith and dedication to a strong family unit.

Blessings from the Dust follows the Jones’ story from the time their ancestors – along with many other African-Americans – came to Virginia to work in the coal mines in the 1920s, to Thomas and Betty’s difficult decision to return to the Big Stone Gap/Appalachia area after being away for five years, and then remaining there to raise their growing family. They began seeing the fruits of their labors as, in addition to all seven children going off to college, each excelled in his and her own way and the two boys, Thomas and Julius, became collegiate football stars and ultimately outstanding running backs in the NFL. The authors speak honestly and candidly about the difficulties encountered on their journey, as well as sharing their opinions about the problems facing many African-American children and the absolute importance of the two-parent family in today’s society. Told with additional input from the Jones children, this memoir paints a moving portrait of one family’s ambitious plan to succeed.

Thomas and Betty Jones grew up in the segregated coal mining camps of southwest Virginia, children of coal-mining fathers. They married and moved away, but fate drew them back to the area. Betty toiled underground in the mines for nearly 20 years, while Thomas gave up a promising broadcasting career to work closer to home and to help raise the children: Gwen, Beatrice, Thomas, Knetris, Julius, Knetta and Katrice.

Justin Grant has no idea that the hike he has taken to salve his grief over the death of his wife and child will lead to the discovery that everything he has ever been taught has been a lie. As Justin walks through the mountains that wind near the cabin he’s staying in during his leave of absence from a Midwestern religious college, he is amazed to see a man floating slowly to the ground; strangely, the man is not wearing a parachute, and he appears to have a halo. Suddenly the man stops floating, and plummets to the ground.  Who is this mysterious stranger, and can Justin believe what he saw?

Justin takes the stranger, whose name is Sandel, to the cabin and gets him medical attention.  In the days that follow, as Sandel regains his strength, he shares with Justin a story so amazing that it’s difficult to comprehend.  However, Sandel offers irrefutable proof, and Justin is drawn into a world he never believed existed.  Soon, he finds himself working with the forces of good against an evil that is so unexpected and so shocking that it will change the way the earth perceives religion for the rest of time.

New Release Shares Young Family’s Struggles and the Strange Form Hope Can Take – Book by Larry W. Fish

Tom felt that his life couldn’t get any better; he was happily married to Cindy, the woman of his dreams, and they were blessed with a lovely little girl, Megan.  He made a good living as a car salesman, and they lived in a comfortable home in the Pocono Mountains of Pennsylvania with their beloved pet, a dog called Izzy.  However, their picture-perfect life is shattered when Tom is involved in a horrifying car accident.  Miraculously, Tom recovers, but the family’s luck goes from bad to worse.  Tom and Cindy decide to move their little family down to North Carolina to get away from the bitter winter and the bad memories, but they find a new form of trouble after they move into a house with a troubled past.

Tom and Cindy are alarmed by the hints dropped by neighbors, and the fact that the neighbors refuse to allow their child to play in the house, but as time passes they are troubled by paranormal disturbances within the house.  The guardian angel that kept them safe in the Pocono Mountains finds herself taxed to her limits as she attempts to keep the family safe from  the forces of evil at work in the house.   Will she be able to hold the evil at bay, or will the family succumb to the demons that possess their home?

Golden Haze is a spellbinding tale chock full of chills and suspense that will keep the readers turning the pages.  Author Larry W. Fish spins a story that ensures the readers will be in the throes of suspense until the thrilling climax.  Fish spent most of his life working in manufacturing and building maintenance, but upon reaching his 60th birthday, he picked up an old hobby—writing.  After writing many stories for an online website, Fish was inspired to expand upon the short stories with which he found success.  He also received inspiration from Cher Valentino, the founder and editor, of Our USA Magazine. Larry has had several short stories of his youth  published in that magazine.

New Release Reveals Medicine’s Failings, Triumphs Through Poetry – Book by Howard F. Stein

Spending more than 40 years in medicine brings an educated perspective to Howard Stein’s poetic views on clinical life. Stein, a medical, psychoanalytic, organizational and applied anthropologist, is regarded as a leader in the medical humanities in family medicine. He uses poetry in teaching clinical behavioral science to family medicine interns and residents. “Poetry can capture the ambiguities and pain of clinical practice, as well as its passion and delight,” Dr. Jack Coulehan writes in the foreword. “Poetry is perhaps the clearest acknowledgement that the word is an instrument of healing.”

In the Shadow of Asclepius delves into themes of human suffering and of having compassion, empathy and respect for patients and their families. His depth of feeling for people shows through his powerful words and imagery. In “Importance,” Stein writes of a busy doctor and nurse on hospital rounds, and of a housekeeper who later came in and “sang to the [crying] baby before she mopped. … As if this room were the manger at Christmas time.” “Hospitalized at Christmas” tells of the holidays, a time when “hospitals are riot with hope and disappointment.”  “Cancer Patient” reveals a tired patient’s resolve not to let his doctor down. “Diagnosis” features a patient’s reaction to a terrifying diagnosis that was relayed by a doctor without emotion: “Though you were here with me, I was alone with your words.”

This is the eighth book of poetry by author Howard Stein. His most recent poetry book, Seeing Rightly with the Heart, was a finalist in the 2011 Oklahoma Book Award Competition. He was nominated in 2006 for Oklahoma Poet Laureate. Stein, a clinical anthropologist who has taught at the University of Oklahoma Health Sciences Center since 1978, serves as professor and special assistant to the chairman in the Department of Family and Preventive Medicine. He also taught for seven years in the Department of Psychiatry at Meharry Medical College in Nashville, Tenn. Contact him at howard-stein@ouhsc.edu.
