DOWNLOAD EBOOK"One Sabbath morning more than two hundred years ago, the dawn broke clear and beautiful over New England. It was one of those lovely mornings that seem like a benediction, a smile of God upon the earth, so calm are they, so full of unutterable rest and quiet. Over the sea, with its endless line of beach and promontory washed softly by the ocean swells; over the towns of the coast,—Boston and Salem,—already large, giving splendid promise of the future; over the farms and hamlets of the interior, and into the rude clearings where the outer limits of civilization mingled with the primeval forest, came a flood of light as the sun rose above the blue line of eastern sea..." Frederic Homer Balch was born in Oregon but had converted to Christianity at the age of 21. He became a preacher and helped establish a lot of churches in Oregon. His keen interest in Native Indian folklore and belief gave him a deep insight into their customs and rituals.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKA combined omnibus version of Fiona Wimber's local trilogy, the Bridge of the Gods series in its entirety. In the area now known as the Pacific Northwest, two brothers, Wyeast and Pahtoe, arrive in turmoil. Their father, the great god Sahale swears them to peace, but this is not destined to last. To survive, the pair must endure hardships unlike anything ever faced before or since with their only connection being their shared brotherhood and their faith. From the wrath of the great god Sahale, to great earthquakes that destroy the coast and fracture tribes, to a civil war and a forbidden love that threatens to tear the brothers apart, things will never be the same once the brothers arrive in the Pacific Northwest. Friendships will be tested, enemies will become friends and for one brother, their humanity will be lost forever. Meanwhile, a new threat looms on the horizon, a threat that comes from both east and west. With the brothers divided on strategy, their only hope lies in the Velchanos, an ancient power Sahale left behind to combat the darkest of the gods. But one thing is for sure, the tribe's home of the Pacific Northwest will never be the same again.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKAn amalgamation of fact and legend that creates a portrait of rural Native American life in the 19th century First published in 1890, The Bridge of the Gods is a tale of the American Indians of the Northwest. Frederic Homer Balch describes missionaries attempting to convert Native Americans to Christianity, warring tribes who try to form an alliance to drive out the white settlers, and Native American legends of how the land—its mountains and rivers—came to be. Throughout his brief life, Balch observed and interviewed the American Indians in his native Oregon. More than a compilation of stories, Balch's classic work is a portrait of the Northwest tribes: their food, dress, shelters, canoes, gambling games, religious beliefs, and the sports and pastimes of their children.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKThe story is based on a fictional disaster that occurred in Peru on July 20, 1714. A rope bridge woven by the Incas on the road between Lima and Cuzco collapsed when five people were crossing it. They all fell into the river from a great height and were killed. Brother Juniper, a Franciscan friar who was about to cross the bridge himself, witnessed the tragedy. Being deeply pious, he saw in what happened a possible divine providence. Did the dead deserve to have their lives cut short in such a terrible way? The monk tries to learn as much as he can about the five victims, finding and questioning people who knew them. As a result of years of investigation, he compiles a voluminous book with all the evidence he has gathered that the beginning and end of human life are part of God's plan... The Bridge of San Luis Rey won the 1928 Pulitzer Prize for the Novel, and remains widely acclaimed as Wilder's most famous work. In 1998, the book was rated number 37 by the editorial board of the American Modern Library on the list of the 100 best 20th-century novels. Time magazine included the novel in its TIME 100 Best English-language Novels from 1923 to 2005.
