Excerpt from Down the Mother Lode The geologist and the historian agree as to its location and composition, but the old miners and' 'sojourners' 'of the vanished golden era give strangely different versions of it. Some of these are here set down, if not all for your enlightenment at least, I hope, for your entertainment. That is, after all, the principal aim of these tales of the old days. 1n California, that are gone for good. Mark Twain says in his preface to Roughing It that there is a great deal of information in his work, which he regrets very much but which really could not be helped, as information seems to stew out of me naturally, like the precious ottar of roses out of the otter! These stories make no such: particular claim! They are merely historical fragments of their everyday life, gathered from a passing generation before they shall be finally lost. Each one is based upon truth. Somewhere, sometime, some place, certain characters lived the scenes and actions here described. The title Mother Lode has been used in its broader sense, as exemplifying the source of all gold in California, and the life which arose from it.

A teenage boy is dying of cancer, and his mother cannot save him. But Susan Addison has a strong heart and a gift for words, and the stories she tells her son Charlie sustain them both through his long illness.These are stories of home, of Charlie's young life Before Tumour, of family cakes and the rich housekeeping heritage passed down the generations. They provide a comforting context - and the relief of humour - for the emotionally wrenching stories of life After Tumour.For these are also stories of home deaths. In a decade of loss Susan's parents and parents-in-law also die, but natural deaths at the end of fruitful lives are easier to bear.In writing of Charlie and his grandparents, Susan Addison draws on the rich mother lode of our common human experience of love, loss and grief. Her inspiring stories help us view death as an acceptable part of living, where memories and pain are shared, and laughter is never far away.

His name was Daniel Alexander Jacobi but his friends just called him Jac. He was the quintessential underachiever, a likeable ne'er-do-well who just couldn't seem to get his life together. After a life time of financial mismanagement, he'd wound broke and living pay cheque to pay cheque on a salary that never seemed to stretch far enough ... a situation he found increasingly frustrating, but one he couldn't find his way out of ... until one day on a back road, everything changed dramatically. With 40 million in $100.00 bills literally dropped in front of him and the mob and the police searching for him, he fought desperately to hide the money. Fear of having been seen by someone gripped his heart like an icy hand, as he struggled to try to come to grips with his new found wealth. This is the story of an unremarkable individual suddenly thrust into a terrifying situation which forced him to draw on a hidden reserve of courage and resolve in order to protect those he loved and the Mother Lode! Unwilling to defend himself, he discovered a will to kill if necessary to protect the money and the future of his loved ones.
