Paperback. Condition: Very Good. When author Glenn Hermann first heard tales of Yup'ik Eskimo Abraham George's near-death experience, he greeted the story with serious skepticism. George, the village drunk, claimed that an otherworldly being guided him through heaven, outer darkness, and hell during the hours he lay unconscious and on the brink of death following a logging accident. Yet as Hermann dug deeper into George's story-and into the supernatural occurrences following his miraculous recovery-the former military man had to acknowledge that something spectacular had happened to the Yup'ik man. Now, Hermann invites readers to experience the life-altering journey and message proclaimed by George for themselves. Whether you believe in heaven or an afterlife-or are looking for more proof that it's all a bunch of hogwash-dare to travel beyond your understanding of birth and death, and everything in between. Examine Abraham George's claims and the evidence for and against the veracity of his message. Sift through the testimony and judge for yourself. Just don't expect to come away unchanged.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. One America's Favorite Books, PBS's The Great American Read Nobel Prize-winning author: This classic of 20th-century literature chronicles the spiritual evolution of a man living in India at the time of the Buddha-a tale that has inspired generations of readers Here is a fresh translation of the classic Herman Hesse novel, from Sherab Ch dzin Kohn-a gifted translator and longtime student of Buddhism and Eastern philosophy. Kohn invites readers along Siddhartha's spiritual journey-experiencing his highs and lows, loves and disappointments along the way. We first meet Siddhartha as a privileged brahmin's son. Handsome, well-loved, and growing increasingly dissatisfied with the life expected of him, he then sets out on his journey, not realizing that he is fulfilling the prophesies proclaimed at his birth. Siddhartha blends in with the world, showing the reader the beauty and intricacies of the mind, nature, and his experiences on the path to enlightenment. Sherab Ch dzin Kohn's flowing, poetic translation conveys the philosophical and spiritual nuances of Hesse's text, paying special attention to the qualities of meditative experience. Also included is an extensive introduction by Paul W. Morris that discusses the impact Siddhartha has had on American culture.…

Paperback. Condition: Good. Fun and informative, this dual history and guide to all things Wiffle(R) gives readers an inside look at the enigma of the perforated plastic ball and the unique game that evolved around it. The book recounts the 1953 circumstances in which a down-on-his luck shoe polish salesman and his 13-year-old son concocted the first Wiffle(R) ball from spare perfume packaging, turning a plastic orb into an American icon. The hard science behind the ball and its seemingly unpredictable tendency toward curveballs is explained in addition to useful guides to handling the ball and enjoying the sport, such as throwing a sinker, a riser, and a screwball. The history of the variation of baseball that accompanies the plastic ball and bat is detailed along with profiles on some of the most competitive players and anecdotes from professional athletes and celebrities who have enjoyed the sport in their personal lives. This one-of-a-kind book will recall fond memories of playing Wiffle(R) ball and provide a thorough understanding of this quirky American recreational sport.…
