Harold Hill is an engineer, not a theologian, but the gospel he describes in down-to-earth, common-sense, every-day language gets to the essence of what living the Christian life is all about.
This book is dedicated to my daughter Nancy Ellen Donovan Krauss. Nancy is such a bright and beautiful part of my life. Pictured are my daughter and her daughter, Billie Marie Krauss. Nancy has the gift for writing and expresses herself outstandingly. Included in this book is something she wrote about losing her only brother, Michael Delaney Donovan. They were five years apart in age, and although she was the older of the two, she looked up to her brother as her protector. There wasn't anything he could not do in her eyes. He was her superman. What i would want to tell you is He was my superman also. i believed in him, and knew he would always be here to take care of me. Nancy, my angel face, is so very beautiful and such a part of her brother. they were always inseperable. they usually always got along and when they talked, they talked deep. he was most definitely her soul mate.

Much of what we know about the birthplace of jazz is the stuff of legend. Danny Barker was a small boy during the early years of jazz, but he heard all the great marching bands, the trumpet kings, and the jazz bottles at first hand, as well as playing in a children's "spasm" band in the red light district of Storyville (which officially closed in 1917, but where many of its occupants carried on exactly as before throughout the 1920s). Barker was working on this book -- the second volume of his memoirs -- for some years before his death in 1994, drawing together a lifetime of writing on early jazz and the characters that mode up the rich social fabric of New Orleans. Some of the raw material for this volume exists in draft form in the William Ransome Hogan Archive at Tulane. But through interview, correspondence and editorial collaboration, Barker and his editor have shaped and extended much of it into a book that brings brilliantly to life the formative years of a uniquely American art form.
