Price range: $3.99 through $23.99Rocks, Roots and Rattlesnakes is the captivating story of my five-month 2020 journey hiking the Appalachian Trail, as told from a geologist’s perspective. It is written as a series of daily logs originally transcribed from my daily journals, then embellished with additional details resulting from further recollection and research. All of the stories are true, and many contain elements of human interest relating to the many fascinating hikers I met on my adventure. Perhaps the most enjoyable aspect of doing such a trek is encountering so many interesting people along the way. My goal in assembling this book was to provide entertainment and information for two main audiences First, for those who have hiked the trail, I included stories relating to places and things all of us have seen, along with frequent observations about those mysterious rocks beneath our feet. For those new to the trail, or who have never hiked long distances, this is a glimpse into the wonders and excitement out there to be discovered, as told by just one of the many thousands of past thru-hikers. The book contains three parts with 26 chapters and reads like a journal log, capturing my challenges and experiences each day on the trail. In addition to the 240 pages of text, there are over 100 beautiful color photos, 6 figures and 6 charts. Hopefully you will find this book both informative and entertaining, as you read and enjoy my tales of 150 days of discovery on the Appalachian Trail!

Global Warming: The Answer (The Energy Dividend)
Price range: $3.99 through $19.99Global Warming: The Answer takes as given that global warming is man-made and occurring with increasingly adverse effects. After a brief review of the carbon cycle (and how man is disturbing it), the book argues that global warming is an economic problem: Given the right prices, technical solutions will follow. After looking at the (limited) solutions for “personal virtue” in reducing pollution, the book examines the chimera of “a carbon neutral life-style,” and necessity to achieve a fossil-free economy. Cap and Trade is shown to involve huge wealth transfers to established polluters and is thus rejected in favor of a “revenue neutral, carbon tax.” More specifically an initial carbon tax of $250 ton, with the revenue returned the public through lowered payroll taxes in the U.S. (or V.A.T. or sales taxes elsewhere). Existing and pending technologies that will take-off once fossil fuels are taxed are reviewed, as are ancillary policies in support of the carbon tax. Some suggestions are offered for increasing international collaboration. It is emphasized however that to date no significant action has been taken to combat global warming: Kyoto, higher mileage requirements, and An Inconvenient Truth not-withstanding. Action is urgent! But first the public have to understand the answer to global warming.

This project is estimated to take twelve to fifteen years to complete. This novel covers the first two years of the pope’s African project.
Project leaders during the first two-year period understand if Africa is to be successful in building a strong middle-class society a number of events must first take place.
African social order must change; Africans must feel safe in their homes and community.
The African political structure must be restructured to focus on serving the needs of Africans. Africa’s health care system needs a major overhaul.
Africa must have an intra-continental highway, connected to four deep seaports, for the distribution of agricultural products to a global market.
Africa must have dependable electricity that services all homes and businesses.
Africa’s tropical savannas’ land, which contains 63% of the worlds arable farmland, must be restructured to allow for optimal farming while at the same time protecting native wildlife.
The pope’s project, Build Africa Together, will be responsible for implementing these basic goals, which will eventually allow Africans to build a strong African middle-class society. -

Global Warming: All You Need To Know
Price range: $3.99 through $17.99This is the third book Wilfred Candler has self-published on the problem of Global Warming and the first on the associated issues of our running out of Non-Renewable Natural Resources. These problems will lead us back to the lifestyle we enjoyed before 1750, with or without electricity. As discussed in his book, Wilfred argues that although there is popular agitation to reduce the use of fossil fuels, there is no widespread awareness of the severity of the crisis. In 1750 (and before), the world supported less than a billion people (much less in previous centuries), with horse-drawn transport, little international trade, and no electricity.
People are still promoting a switch to wind and solar electricity generation, seemingly unaware that this only provides intermittent power (think a dark, windless night) when cheaper, permanent, and continuous molten salt nuclear power is available.
Although this book does not have suggestions for how we are to go from eight to one billion people, it does make the case that this is a problem that needs to be addressed.

Global Warming: The Problem
Price range: $3.99 through $17.99In 2007 Wilfred Candler wrote and self-published “Global Warming: The Answer” It advocated a tax of $250 per ton of coal. Unfortunately, it was not widely read. Now (2021), he wants to share his concern that the problems of Climate Change are vastly more multi-dimensional than we had any idea of 14 years ago. It is no longer a simple problem of using fossil fuels. Still, as Christopher Clugston has pointed out, we are rapidly exhausting the world’s supply of a wide range of non-renewable natural resources.
Moreover, fossil fuel companies are actively promoting the continued use of fossil fuels and even supporting environmental groups providing their objection to fossil fuels extends to nuclear. Meanwhile, the world population is almost eight times the level before our use of non-renewable resources, and per capita consumption is a thousand times what it was in 1750.

Tormentas
Price range: $3.99 through $13.99Aunque el boletín de noticias confirmó su decisión de evacuar, Elise no quería escuchar otro minuto de pronósticos, preparativos y predicciones. Brad buscó hasta encontrar un canal de fácil escucha y condujo por la lluvia en carreteras sorprendentemente desiertas. Aparentemente, el resto de la ciudad había prestado atención a las advertencias mucho antes que los Steiners. Mientras el automóvil se aventuraba a través de la tranquila calma antes de la tormenta, los niños dormían mientras sus padres y abuelos permanecían en silencio, mirando hacia las tierras húmedas de Luisiana que bordean la autopista interestatal.
En un momento de su solitario viaje, una caravana de unidades de paramédicos y ambulancias los adelantó por el carril izquierdo. Elise sintió que su piel se erizaba mientras los veía pasar, imaginando cuán asustados debían estar los pacientes, lidiando no solo con el dolor e incertidumbre de una enfermedad, sino también con su única dependencia de completos extraños para encontrar un refugio seguro durante la tormenta. Cada uno de esos pacientes era la madre o el padre de alguien, un abuelo o un hermano, o peor aún, el hijo de alguien. “Gracias, Dios”, susurró de nuevo y se volvió para mirar a cada miembro de su familia, como si tuviera que asegurarse de que todos todavía estuvieran con ella.

The City Dog And The Country Dog
Price range: $3.99 through $9.99“In the beginning, God created…” That is how it all began. In his infinite wisdom, God created animals before humans. Why? Could it be that he needed the animals to explain creation to us? Or rather to explain the Creator to us? Could it be that God knew that our intellects would try too hard to understand something that is very simple? In The City Dog and the Country Dog, the man learns that what all of creation is yearning for freedom–freedom to enjoy his Creator and all the benefits of creation. There is just one big problem: we are held captive by our cruel masters. They keep us bound up, and they lie to us about who we are and what God thinks of us.
Boone is an Australian Blue Heeler whose owner is a cruel master. He is always trying to escape to get his needs met. After being taken by animal services for neglect and abuse, Boone is adopted by a good master. His new master must endure the bad habits and behaviors of Bonne learned under the cruet master, even being badly bit. When his training is complete, Boone is a new dog and readily submits to his master. He never leaves his master’s side. By watching Boone’s transformation, his master learns God’s plan for him and all of creation– to be set free to experience the love of their Creator, to return that love, and to receive their inheritance.
