When her grandmother asks her to accompany her to Redbud, Pennsylvania, to restore the grand old house she grew up in, Kate jumps at the chance. Upon her arrival in Redbud, Kate meets Matt Jarreau, the man hired to renovate the house. Kate can't help being attracted to him, drawn by both his good looks and something else she can't quite put her finger on. He's clearly wounded--hiding from people, from God, and from his past. Yet Kate sets her stubborn heart on bringing him out of the dark and back into the light--whether he likes it or not. When the stilted, uncomfortable interactions between Kate and Matt slowly shift into something more, is God finally answering the longing of her heart? Or will Kate be required to give up more than she ever dreamed?"--Back cover.

Summary: This work depicts the heroic young men of Alpha Company as they carry the emotional weight of their lives to war in Vietnam in a patchwork account of a modern journey into the heart of darkness. They battle the enemy (or maybe more the idea of the enemy), and occasionally each other. In their relationships we see their isolation and loneliness, their rage and fear. They miss their families, their girlfriends and buddies; they miss the lives they left back home. Yet they find sympathy and kindness for strangers (the old man who leads them unscathed through the mine field, the girl who grieves while she dances), and love for each other, because in Vietnam they are the only family they have.

Summary: "The magic and mystery of Celtic knotwork disappeared with the people and the artists whose last traces date back over 1,000 years. But the fascination with their brilliantly twisted and twined knots and plaits has only grown in the centuries since. In recent years, lovers of Celtic art--as well as studio and graphic artists--had to rely on tracing paper and pencil to copy these unending twists and turns. Now, with the help of these concise descriptions and literally hundreds of simple diagrams and grids, you can execute remarkably intricate patterns on your own. You'll find it delightfully easy to create your own exquisite designs, using the same motifs that illuminated ancient Celtic manuscripts and architecture. As well, you'll discover the simple geometry behind adapting a straight knotted pattern to fill a circle, a curve or a cross. The variations and adaptations are as infinite as the endless coils of great Celtic knotwork"--Back cover.
