“A lighthearted, entertaining trip down Memory Lane” (Kirkus Reviews), Don’t Make Me Pull Over! offers a nostalgic look at the golden age of family road trips—before portable DVD players, smartphones, and Google Maps. The birth of America’s first interstate highways in the 1950s hit the gas pedal on the road trip phenomenon and families were soon streaming—sans seatbelts!—to a range of sometimes stirring, sometimes wacky locations. In the days before cheap air travel, families didn’t so much take vacations as survive them. Between home and destination lay thousands of miles and dozens of annoyances, and with his family Richard Ratay experienced all of them—from being crowded into the backseat with noogie-happy older brothers, to picking out a souvenir only to find that a better one might have been had at the next attraction, to dealing with a dad who didn’t believe in bathroom breaks. Now, decades later, Ratay offers “an amiable guide…fun and informative” (New York Newsday) that “goes down like a cold lemonade on a hot summer’s day” (The Wall Street Journal). In hundreds of amusing ways, he reminds us of what once made the Great American Family Road Trip so great, including twenty-foot “land yachts,” oasis-like Holiday Inn “Holidomes,” “Smokey”-spotting Fuzzbusters, twenty-eight glorious flavors of Howard Johnson’s ice cream, and the thrill of finding a “good buddy” on the CB radio. An “informative, often hilarious family narrative [that] perfectly captures the love-hate relationship many have with road trips” (Publishers Weekly), Don’t Make Me Pull Over! reveals how the family road trip came to be, how its evolution mirrored the country’s, and why those magical journeys that once brought families together—for better and worse—have largely disappeared.

This is the story of a journey that begins with a jolt--the bumpy, sometimes lonely, existence despite being surrounded by many. The story tells of faith searching reason, diving headfirst into independence, along with the learning curve in making life-and-death decisions. It tells about a gypsy with a Peter Pan heart living the hippie era, the mental trials and tribulations of relationships, life in the fast lanes of rock and roll. It tells about the worm towing the ship of fame and fortune from Alaska, crossing paths, tempting fate, and hearing the voices of ancient reason. This is a story of coming to terms with reality and packing up the rose-colored lenses of lost dreams and hopes. It is the turning of pages as life unravels its truth. It is about contemplating life's purpose and the existence of a creator, reasoning for the weary sorrows in the world through indefatigable searching leading to understanding.

Is there anything left to learn about God's love? When Jesus was asked what mattered most to God, his answer was seemingly simple: love God earnestly and love others the way you want to be loved. In his debut book, Steve Daugherty dives deep into this command and what it means for those who follow Jesus. Throughout Experiments in Honesty, Steve shares stories from the Bible and his own life to explore the ideas of compassion, fear, anger, and faith. This journey will lead all who want to follow Jesus to understand the truth about God's Love -- that it sets us free from fear and allows us to love others more than ourselves. That is, after all, what matters most.

Should certain truths Be hidden from the Citizenry. . . War Correspondent, Danny Frain, has just lost his long time cameraman, and he blames himself for the death. The story they were working on has touched a sensitive nerve in Washington, where powerful men are plotting to undermine the current President’s administration. A regime change is about to take place if Frain doesn’t help a newly formed Task Force. After someone tampers with the fuel tank on his Cessna, Frain takes it personally. He reluctantly joins CIA analyst, Ruth Harding, in the dangerous quest for answers. The deadly search takes the pair through Virginia woodlands and a hold-on-tight ride on a storm whipped Chesapeake Bay. Harding’s beautiful, bold, and just a little bit scary and, together, they find themselves in the thick of a massive conspiracy, involving a vengeance seeking Euphrates farmer, a power hungry senator, and a rogue agent of the Central Intelligence Agency. In the end, Danny Frain has a decision to make, and he’ll make it in the middle of the worst recession since the Great Depression. If Cable News One airs the story, it could have devastating consequences for the Stock Market and America’s standing in the World, which is already at a low point. It will be–– Bad for the Country. . .
