The rise and fall of William Mulholland, and the story of L.A.’s disastrous dam collapse: “A dramatic saga of ambition, politics, money and betrayal” (Los Angeles Daily News). Rivers in the Desert follows the remarkable career of William Mulholland, the visionary who engineered the rise of Los Angeles as the greatest American city west of the Mississippi. He sought to transform the sparse and barren desert into an inhabitable environment by designing the longest aqueduct in the Western Hemisphere, bringing water from the mountains to support a large city. This “fascinating history” chronicles Mulholland’s dramatic ascension to wealth and fame—followed by his tragic downfall after the sudden collapse of the dam he had constructed to safeguard the water supply (Newsweek). The disaster, which killed at least five hundred people, caused his repudiation by allies, friends, and a previously adoring community. Epic in scope, Rivers in the Desert chronicles the history of Los Angeles and examines the tragic fate of the man who rescued it. “An arresting biography of William Mulholland, the visionary Los Angeles Water Department engineer . . . [his] personal and public dramas make for gripping reading.” —Publishers Weekly “A fascinating look at the political maneuvering and engineering marvels that moved the City of Angels into the first rank of American cities.” —Booklist

Rivers in the Desert is a book of responses, in poetry, to God's precious Word. There is a poem and verse of Scripture for each day of the year, to encourage daily time with God. These short devotionals are a great way to take just a moment of each day to soak in a refreshing from those "rivers in the desert."

Do you find it difficult to obey God when you don’t understand what He is doing in your life? Elena R. Jordan tells her own story of reluctantly following God’s instructions to relocate to another state. Having to leave her hometown and family behind to start anew seemed unfathomable. Unforseen circumstances landed her in a homeless shelter. A place she never thought she would end up. Instead of having faith and trusting God in the transition, she finds comfort in a forbidden relationship to escape her lonliness and uncertanties. What you will take away from Rivers In The Desert is to stay on the path that God has for you and trust the process that He’s taking you through. Having faith and obeying God is the key to all of God’s blessings.

Excerpt from Rivers in the Desert: Or, Mission-Scenes in Burmah The sect, to which Judson attached himself, has not been named. Like Bunyan, and Martyn, and Brainerd, - Judson is the property, not of a sect, but of the whole Church of God. His light, like theirs, so shone, that men, seeing his good works, glorified -not his sect, but - his Father in heaven.
