2011réf. 97816177728631There must be a reason such a large portion of Scripture is devoted to the Nation of Israel's journey from bondage in Egypt to freedom in the Promised Land. Authors Jack and Ruth McDonald contend that each individual Christian's life is also a journey from bondage to freedom. The good news is that just as God was with Israel each step of the way He promises direction and protection for our journey as well. Under the Cloud is still the place to be. Jack and Ruth use the inerrant and unchanging message of the Bible to encourage brothers and sisters to be on the move again. As you read you will discover how to successfully deal with the stresses of life. Discarding excess baggage and learning to travel light will become a way of life. Don't struggle for another single day; read Under the Cloud and find the high road today. Tate Publishing paperback

1949réf. 4129Tuskegee Al: Tuskegee Institute 1949. Very good. vi66pp. carbon copy typescript printed on rectos only. Contemporary red buckram gilt spine titles. Minor soiling and edge wear to boards corners bumped. An official copy of Ruth Boatwright's Tuskegee Institute Masters thesis signed by her advisor Robert Reid and two Tuskegee administrators Dean Alonzo Davis and the Chairman of the Graduate Committee R.W. Brown. As usual the thesis includes an introduction literature review background on the topic and a summary with findings. At the outset of the summary Boatwright states that her thesis was intended "to trace the development of visiting teacher services in the United States and in the state of Alabama so that the findings might be of benefit to persons seeking to make possible the expansion of Negro visiting teacher services in Alabama for neglected Negro boys and girls." Among the reasonable findings Boatwright made include that "Negro visiting teachers get better results in dealing with Negro boys and girls than white visiting teachers" and "There are too few Negro visiting teachers in Alabama one worker for every 3000 children." The text is supplemented throughout with maps tables and charts; among the supplemental material are questionnaires employed by Boatwright in her research." The work was later privately printed by the author through Vantage Press in 1975. OCLC records just one other copy of Boatwright's original thesis retained by Tuskegee and the University of Alabama holds a copy. Tuskegee Institute unknown
