Both countries had large arsenals of nuclear warheads and large land and sea armed forces. Sometimes, both sides utilized extraordinary tactics to achieve the balance of power.

This book is the third, but first published, writing on the doctrine of eternal salvation and only reflects a portion of the many studies undertaken to refine his understanding of biblical truths, and to separate fact from philosophically imposed teaching. Russell lives in Cobourg, Ontario, Canada. He is a husband and father to six children and to six grandchildren. He is a graduate of Queen's University with a Bachelor's degree in Psychology and a Master's in Counselling. He has been involved in Christian ministry for over fifty years since having made a commitment to Christ through confession of belief. He was brought up in a family of nine children and was encouraged to attend church. An eternal need was awakened in him through the challenges of the Word while attending a Bible-believing and teaching body. He soon took interest in hearing God's words and through small group studies and teaching opportunities he developed an unquenchable thirst for understanding and truth. As his knowledge grew, opportunities were provided to teach the youth and to become involved in sharing words from the pulpit. His commitment led him to become active in Sunday School as a teacher and local superintendent. He became inspired to lead weekly Bible studies in a nearby church plant and after thirty years it remains a thriving and growing body. He took over responsibility for his church youth group and from it several pastors have been birthed. This ministry eventually led to participation in the start-up of a local Youth for Christ chapter. He served in the capacity of board member for almost twenty years and eventually was elected to the Youth for Christ Canada board of directors where he served for a nine-year period.
The years is AD 1147. King Arthur of Britain is still an unseasoned monarch. He has yet to meet his betrothed, Guinevere, and Camelot is still a little more than an idea in his mind. He is visited at the castle by a gentleman who brings him an astonishing tale of an astonishing woman--the Naked Queen of Tabithia. The man is named Darien, and he is the queen's son, soon to be ruler of Tabithia. But before he can reign, he must learn the secret behind the singular events that have shaped his life. As the two converse, Arthur begins to understand the truth and the lies associated with the Naked Queen. It is around AD 1120. The Scandinavian realm of Tabithia is in turmoil. Since his ascension to the throne, King Ballizar has embarked on a horrid ritual that seems intent on decimating the maiden population. On the night of each full moon, Ballizar conducts a despicable ritual that puts some poor maiden of the realm to a terrible test. No one yet has been able to withstand it. It is not until the ritual is interrupted by the arrival of a woman named Syrenya that the ritual is finally broken, and by doing so, Syrenya becomes the King's consort and queen of Tabithia. But on her wedding night, she learns a terrible secret--one that will take all her cunning and intelligence, and the span of a quarter-century, to put right.

RISING MAGNIFICENTLY in the wilderness of Western Tibet, Mount Kailash is one of three sacred mountains in Tibet. Its shape is unmistakable: a symmetrical cone marked with striations and graced with perpetual snows. Four rivers emanate from it, nourishing the entire region. Mount Kailash is the center of the spiritual universe. It is sacred to four religions: Buddhism, Hinduism, Bon, and Jainism. For Hindus, it is the home of Shiva. All of these statements are true of this magnifi cent mountain, but the truest is what my teacher said to me before I left to do prostrations around Mt. Kailash: "The center of the spiritual universe already exists in your human heart. Meet your mirror."

The true story of a kinda normal person who has had an abnormal life. I have slid down a snow-covered mountain in the hood of a car, streaked on a highway, raged war with Mexicans and Afro Americans, had an option to live or to die, had my car stolen in Tijuana, had a car that everyone called (and looked like) a "whore mobile," and stabbed my best friend in the back with a knife. There are famous names in this book like Elvis, Eastwood, Helmsly, Osmands, Peter Paul and Mary, the Beatles, and others. Horse stories, horror stories, and no stories that have been made up. All are 100% true. However, some may be embellished a bit to make you laugh, cry, or wonder why!
