on the premise that humankind has its destiny in its own hands and that
destiny will be determined collectively by the actions of each
individual.
Book one in the series is titled
"The Chinook River Princess" which takes place in the late
1800's. The series jumps several hundred years to the present
with book six, "No Tears for an Empty Grave" which is set on
Capitol Hill amongst the national leaders in electric power lawmaking
and the lobbyists.
While that series is fiction, In March
2002, Judgment Ring Books released "A voice in the Wilderness
- a pastor's journal of Ground Zero" by Camille Yorkey, which is
a real-life example of how the love, commitment, and work of individuals
affects and furthers all humankind.
September 2001, Judgment Ring Books
released "Power to the People," an expose on the major
shortcoming of electric power deregulation, including the novella "Blackstart
2005" This book predicted the August 14, 2003 northeast
