From early spring through late fall, nearly one hundred thousand people hike or bike the Ghost Town Trail that winds its way through the Laurel Highlands of Pennsylvania. Its beauty is legendary and so are its ghosts. To solve the mysteries of the trail, renowned ghostologist, C. L. Shore, Ph.D., and her "Ghost Crew" are called in to investigate the strange conditions and uncanny occurrences on the trail that have local residents screaming in fear. What Dr. Shore and the Ghost Crew discover is both shocking and unbelievable as the ghosts reveal the secrets of their deaths. Fortunately, the group of ghostbusters are able to help some of the lost and lonely spirits pass over to the next dimension. Sadly, there are many who remain earthbound, unable to find their way home. Perhaps you can help them find peace by walking the path with them for a little while. Don't be afraid...they won't hurt you. Much. Whether you believe in the supernatural or not, do yourself a favor: Read Ghost Tales from the Ghost Trail. Examine the photographs of disembodied spirits and the locations of ghostly sights included in the book. Then be prepared to shiver.

Why have elephants—and our preconceptions about them—been central to so much of human thought? From prehistoric cave drawings in Europe and ancient rock art in Africa and India to burning pyres of confiscated tusks, our thoughts about elephants tell a story of human history. In Elephant Trails, Nigel Rothfels argues that, over millennia, we have made elephants into both monsters and miracles as ways to understand them but also as ways to understand ourselves. Drawing on a broad range of sources, including municipal documents, zoo records, museum collections, and encounters with people who have lived with elephants, Rothfels seeks out the origins of our contemporary ideas about an animal that has been central to so much of human thought. He explains how notions that have been associated with elephants for centuries—that they are exceptionally wise, deeply emotional, and have a special understanding of death; that they never forget, are beloved of the gods, and suffer unusually in captivity; and even that they are afraid of mice—all tell part of the story of these amazing beings. Exploring the history of a skull in a museum, a photograph of an elephant walking through the American South in the early twentieth century, the debate about the quality of life of a famous elephant in a zoo, and the accounts of elephant hunters, Rothfels demonstrates that elephants are not what we think they are—and they never have been. Elephant Trails is a compelling portrait of what the author terms "our elephant."

Read the true first-hand account of Laura Hardin Carson and the work she and her husband Arthur Carson did converting the Chin people of Burma (now called Myanmar) to Christianity. Young and old alike will be inspired by this retelling of the life of this young American missionary couple. Learn how they became the first missionaries to the Chin people and how their sacrifice and service led to the conversion of an entire people group now numbering in the millions. See how God molds Laura and Arthur into His image as they brave extraordinary hardships while beginning their own family far from home. The perseverance of the Carsons blazed a new trail through the jungles of a land steeped in demon worship and superstition, and now the light of the Gospel shines there brightly. In recent years, after decades of forced isolation from the rest of the world, Burma has opened up to the flow of Christians longing to connect and bless their brothers and sisters who have endured great persecution. Those returning from Myanmar are carrying with them amazing and wonderful stories of God's grace among the saints of this somewhat forgotten outpost of the Kingdom of God. This book reminds the faithful of the pioneering work done by the Carsons and others who gave their lives for the work of Christ in this land, and will, no doubt, inspire others to the same.
