Genevieve: Based on a True Story of Pain, Perseverance, and Triumph
Mary Laurienti
Genre: Contemporary Fiction | Women’s Fiction | Historical Fiction
FREE for a limited time
The irony of disease is that it often strikes the right person, not because she deserves to suffer or is unlucky, but because she can endure it.The deeper irony is that she is typically the one person who serves as a source of strength for those around her of lesser fortitude.Genevieve is a historical novel about Genevieve Patrick’s trials with Multiple Sclerosis (MS), the death of her unborn child, and her triumph over the disease’s damning impact on three generations of family.The novel takes place between 1937 and 1948, traversing Great Depression and World War II events that frame Genevieve’s struggle with MS.The novel is based on a true story and includes short interludes of biographical nonfiction commentary from the author.
When Gen is stricken with MS at age 25—newly married and pregnant—she musters the inner strength to bounce back to near normalcy only to suffer a debilitating MS attack several years later, an event that forces her husband, parents, a sibling, and the Church to fiercely debate and choose the fate of her unborn child.Near death, Gen endures an interstate voyage in the bed of her father’s truck to undergo surgery that ultimately terminates her pregnancy but saves her life.Faced with a multi-year recovery, a strained marriage over the loss of her child, a husband drafted into military service, and the dispersal of her three children with family members, Gen relies on nothing more than her unyielding character to mend literal and figurative wounds, rebuilding her life and the lives of those around her.

Skywalker–Close Encounters on the Appalachian trail
Bill Walker
Genre: Humor & Entertainment | Sports & Outdoors
FREE for a limited time
Why would a middle-aged businessman who had never even spent the night outdoors, attempt to hike the entire Appalachian Trail? Bill Walker, a former commodities trader in Chicago and London, and an avid walker, had developed a virtual obsession to hike this historic 2,175 mile footpath in one hiking season. In the spring of 2005 he set off from his home state of Georgia, hoping to make it to Mount Katahdin in northern Maine before the arrival of winter. Immediately, he realized he had plunged into a whole new world. For starters, the Appalachian Trail has some ferociously difficult terrain, winding through dramatically diverse geography and covering the East’s highest peaks.
Walker’s 6’11’ height earned him the trail name, “Skywalker”, and drew envious attention from his fellow hikers. However, the height made him more susceptible to weight loss, cold weather, and crushing fatigue. An elemental fear of bears and snakes, as well as getting lost, also loomed large.
Skywalker was especially struck by the rich culture this jewel of a trail has developed over the years. Included is a history of how the Appalachian Trail has become such a stunning American success story over the decades. It is a model public-private partnership. As many as 4,000,000 people hike some part of it each year.
Mortals are compelled–or perhaps cursed–to relive their lifetime adventure. This is Bill Walker’s unforgettable version, leavened with ruthlessly self-deprecating humor. Some have joked that the book is as much about what NOT to do, as what to do. Skywalker couldn’t agree more!
