Beyond the Palm Trees begins with the historic arrival of American free black slaves at what was once known as the 'Grain Coast' and is now called Liberia. It illustrates how the acquisition of land began in the country and the establishment of the Oil Palm Plantations Company, the first and largest plantation in Liberia. Beyond the Palm Trees tells the story of a young man from the country-side whose primary ambition-to marry and live a normal family life -is derailed by a series of unfortunate events, including catching his newly wedded wife in bed with another man. Later, he marries another woman who produces two, fine sons. Due to his frequent and prolonged absences from his village because of work, however, the young man one day returns home and finds his wife heavily pregnant by another man. What happens next is up to the reader to discover. This story does not reflect the true images of actual people who may still bear the actual names of its main characters: there's no entity known as the ''Oil Palm Plantations Company'' in Liberia; and although there are villages named Nyandemoh-Lahun in Lofa County, Dar-Es-Salaam in Grand Cape -mount County, and Gbakokoyata in Bong County, there is no settlement in Liberia known as ''Lopolu or Freeman Town.'' References made of Gardnersville, Bardnersville; Charlesville and other settlements are purely an illustration of fictional dimensions and have nothing to do with the reality of the present-day geopolitical divisions of Liberia.

Growing Up under the Palm Trees is about a young Haitian American's journey advancing through the rough streets of Little Haiti, Miami, Florida during the late 80s to the early parts of the 21st Century. His account starts with his exit out of Haiti amidst a brutal revolution in which he and his family barely escaped with their lives. Upon arriving in Miami, they found another group of challenges in which each member had to acquire skills that would allow him or her to properly assimilate into American life. During those early years, his inability to properly communicate with others led him on a more introverted path that both helped him academically but would later hinder him socially when he entered school. Upon entering school, he found much success in the classroom, but still was a social deviant in terms of him making friends and growing beyond the classroom. Although he made great strides coming out of elementary school, middle school seemed to have been a much different challenge that would test his resolve as a student, and allow him to delve deep and find a connection with his past and heritage. High school proved to be a dangerous place for him, but it was there that he experienced the most success and experience love and heartbreak for the first time while graduating a year early. This success translated into him getting accepted into college at a local university and him getting significantly involved in every facet of college life. After one of his professor's death, he decided to once again graduate early and face the working world. It was during this time that he experienced yet another set of challenges including the death of one of his half-brothers, unemployment, debilitating health, and career exploration.

The rapid development of oil palm cultivation feeds many social issues such as biodiversity, deforestation, food habits or ethical investments. How can this palm be viewed as a miracle plant by both the agro-food industry in the North and farmers in the tropical zone, but a serious ecological threat by non-governmental organizations (NGOs) campaigning for the environment or rights of local indigenous peoples? In the present book the authors – a biologist and an agricultural economist- describe a global and complex tropical sector, for which the interests of the many different stakeholders are often antagonistic. Oil palm has become emblematic of recent changes in North-South relationship in agricultural development. Indeed, palm oil is produced and consumed in the South; its trade is driven by emerging countries, although the major part of its transformations is made in the North that still hosts the largest multinational agro industries. It is also in the North that the sector is challenged on ethical and environmental issues. Public controversy over palm oil is often opinionated and it is fed by definitive and sometimes exaggerated statements. Researchers are conveying a more nuanced speech, which is supported by scientific data and a shared field experience. Their work helps in building a more balanced view, moving attention to the South, the region of exclusive production and major consumption of palm oil.

Havana, 1939-The glamorous capital city of an alluring Caribbean island, the year that Rolando Fernandez and Ninina Perea meet and fall in love. Strassburger begins her story with her parents' courtship in the golden years of pre-Castro Cuba. Her memoir recounts how her father's mental collapse and the communist revolution of 1959 uprooted her privileged childhood, both physically and emotionally. While providing substantial background on Fidel Castro's political revolt, Strassburger focuses on her family's experiences: The appropriation of their wealth and properties by the rebel regime. How families were torn apart as children were taken from their parents, forced to undergo communist indoctrination in Russia. Strassburger narrowly escaped such a fate through Operation Pedro Pan, one of the largest political exoduses of children in history. Fearing for her future, her parents sent her out of Cuba-unaccompanied-in 1961. She relates the terror of being separated from her family and living in a foreign country without them. With affecting detail, Strassburger depicts her family's disintegration as her father spiraled into schizophrenia and communism forced them into exile. They left behind their loved ones, their homes, and their identities to face the hardships of a new life in the United States. Palm Trees in the Snow is a family's story of love, sacrifice and survival. It is the author's tribute to a way of life lost forever and the embracing of a new one in America.
