Product Description
"Like San Francisco's earthquake and Baltimore's fire, the flood of 1937 became a Louisville benchmark; modern Louisville started with it." So said Harper's Weekly, and most historians agree. Seventy years ago, in January 1937, the Ohio River flooded in biblical proportions. Like New Orleans after Katrina, two-thirds of the city of Louisville, Kentucky was under water. But the citizens of Louisville, under the inspired leadership of Mayor Neville Miller, fought through the hardships and the challenges of the city's worst natural disaster to overcome extraordinary tragedy to save their city. This is the complete story of those heroic days. Through historic photographs, maps, log books, diaries and personal recollections, author Rick Bell re-creates, in thrilling detail, the magnitude of the devastation and the totality of the city's eventual triumph.

Book Description
A car thief isn't the sort of person you'd expect to find helping out in an animal shelter. But to make up for his crime, Kevin is sent to help Tracy and her brother, Luke -- and none of them knows what to expect. When heavy winter rains cause the town's levee to break, the teenagers are forced to skip orientation and help with the rescue effort. Within moments they're in a powerboat packed with sandwiches and supplies and out on the water. Their mission runs smoothly until armed thieves, caught in the act of stealing from a flooded home, kidnap Luke. In a heartbeat, the rescue effort turns towards Tracy's brother -- and unless she and Kevin can band together, there's no hope for survival.

Rising Water Book review by tiffany age12.......2005-03-07
I Disagree with Baby Blues review because I did not think Rising Water was a great book. I thought it was ok but not great. I thoght it was an ok book because I enjoy books that keep me hanging off the edge of my seat and Rising Water has quite a few dull parts to it. Some parts of it were unesessary
The changing of friends.......2005-03-03
This is a fast pace mystery. This book starts off really slow but as you get into it ,it becomes the most exciting book you have ever read.
The book starts off with this girl named Julie,and this guy named Jake. Julie thinks that Jake will never change. He was sent to the center because he stole a car and it was either charity work or going to jail. Of course he choose that. He starts off being really mean but that is a cover-up for how he really feals about Julie. This all changes when they are sent out in a flood to feed a dog. They go into a house that they thought looked weird to them. When they got inside they discover that a robber is still inside,and Jake gets stuck inside. This hardworking team came together to face alot of problems on this trip. Julie finally relizes that Jake is not that bad.
I would highly recomend this book.
Rising Water by Jordan in Ms. Corners class.......2005-03-02
"Rising Water" is about three kids whose names are Tracy, Luke, and Kevin. Although these 3 teenagers are very normal they will experience something different from most other kids. It began one day in the animal shelter during a flooding rainstorm when a lady came to the shelter and asked Luke to take his boat out to her house and feed her dog who was trapped at the house because of the flood and if he did this she would reward him with money for the animal shelter. So out of common courtesy he accepted the offer and all three of them went to her house in the gut-wrenching weather experiencing many fun and different things on the way. After they fed the lady's dog and began their journey back to the non-flooded land. They fortunetally managed to catch 2 burglars in the act of steeling some family's stuff from their house. After trying to stop them Luke was kidnapped and held hostage after being beatin by the burglars. Now its up to Tracy and Kevin to save Luke. But,should Tracy and Kevin leave to go and get help or try and fight the kidnappers/burglars on there own? Read the book and find out what happens in the end.
TERRIBLE!.......2005-02-24
I really don't like this book. I cannot get into it. It's the most boring book on the planet. I highly suggest not to read it. You will be bored to tears. If you are forced to read this book in school like I had to, good luck. I cannot believe people ACTUALLY like this book. Some parts are ok, but nothing that could be described as wonderful! I will have to finish this boring book to see if it is "truly" wonderful. But for now I will go with my current opinions. Good luck to those people who have to read this book. I pity you.
Book Description
Water is Rising in the Classroom: True Terror Dreams of Teachers is an illustrated collection of actual teacher's nightmares. Teachers in classrooms K-12 were interviewed in seventeen schools in three states to form the content of the book. The stress brought on by teaching is evident in the dreams. Teachers are afraid they will lose control, be humiliated, have no preparation, or be put in charge of students who could not be handled by anyone. Teachers in all schools surveyed admitted to having the dreams, there being no apparent difference in the content of dreams experienced by men and women, teachers in wealthy versus less wealthy schools, or public versus independent schools. The book is interesting and humorous, and reveals the pressures teachers experience.

Book Description
A poignant coming-of-age novel set during the Galveston Storm of 1900
I looked south toward the gulf, trying to keep an eye on the stalking sea. Wild waves rose up like a great hand and wrenched loose the Pagoda’s long staircase, sending planks tumbling through the air. With horror I watched the end of one twin building sway and dip into the surf.
I yelled at Josiah, but my words disappeared on the wind. I grabbed his arm, pointed, and we stood together, shoulder to shoulder, mouths gaping, watching the impossible.
Like a wounded Goliath, the great bathhouse shuddered, folded in on its long legs, and collapsed into the sea.
Galveston, Texas, may be the booming city of the twentieth century, but to Seth it is the end of a dream. He wants to be a carpenter like his father, but the family has moved so Seth can become a doctor.
Just as things begin to look up for Seth, a storm warning is raised one sweltering afternoon. A north wind always brings change, but no one could have imagined anything like this.
The acclaimed author of The Truth About Sparrows has crafted an unforgettable story set during the Galveston Storm of 1900.
Customer Reviews:
Not for young adults only.......2007-04-03
This is a moving and beautiful story based on the actual events surrounding the Galveston storm and flood. As with many of today's books for younger readers, this is a novelist who is writing for young adults yet dealing with issues and life decisions in an intelligent way--edited to a reasonable length--so that an adult would find this a most satisfying read. I certainly did, and the images and lessons of this story will stay with me for a long time.
Ms. Hale has done it again!.......2006-10-19
A friend told me about Marian Hale's first book, "The Truth About Sparrows". She said that even though it was written for pre-teens, she had enjoyed it very much. I must agree with her. It was an excellent book, and when I finished it I wanted more! As soon as "Dark Water Rising" was available I read it. Sometimes when we have expectations about a book we are disappointed, and then there's that old axiom about everyone having one good book in them. However, I was delighted to see that Ms. Hale had done it again!
"Dark Water Rising" captivated me from the beginning. When I was reading it, it was as though nothing else existed. I looked forward to the limited time I have each day for reading. This book seized hold of my mind and my heart, wrapped them in tears and smiles and wouldn't let go. I made it last as long as I could, because I didn't want it to end. I was amazed at Ms. Hale's ability to achieve such depth and detail of content with a warm simplicity. I would not like to see adults pass this book over thinking it is only for "children". Any adult who enjoys good writing will love it!
It's been a long, long time since a writer has taken me back to the first good feelings that I associate with books. My grandmother read to me as a child. She sat in front of a blazing, crackling fireplace with me on her lap, reading the same stories over and over. Her gift to me was a love of reading. Ms. Hale's books take me to that same lovely, warm place. She obviously has a superior gift as a storyteller, and I impatiently look forward to many more books.
Novel of the 1900 Galveston Storm puts you in the middle of the story.......2006-09-30
After enjoying the author's first novel, The Truth About Sparrows, I wasn't sure I wanted to read yet another book about the great Galveston storm of 1900. I've visited Galveston often and heard the stories all my life, so I wondered whether this novel could offer anything fresh. But within a few pages of Dark Water Rising, I was hooked and finished the novel in one sitting.
Seventeen-year-old Seth, the oldest of four children, resents moving to Galveston with his family on a hot August day in 1900. His father hopes the move will push Seth closer to a dream of going to medical school. The trouble is, that's Papa's dream, not Seth's. Seth wants to become a master carpenter, just like Papa.
With the help of their Uncle Nate, Seth and his family settle into life in Galveston. Seth soon forms a friendship with Ben, son of his uncle's caretaker, despite barriers of race and position. In the hot, airless days that lead up to the storm, Seth finds work on a construction project, samples the delights of life on the Galveston Boardwalk, and argues with his father about his future.
This story shines with realism and historical detail. On every page, the reader experiences the sights, smells, textures, sounds, and mood of life in the bustling, turn-of-the-century island boomtown. As I was reading it, I was tempted to get in my car and drive to Galveston so I could walk along the beach and imagine the town as it existed in August of 1900.
Just as Seth settles into his new job and starts accepting life in Galveston, the first storm warning flags go up. Seth and Ben are separated from other members of the family, and they experience a day and night of terror as a hurricane changes life forever on Galveston island.
It's in the aftermath of the storm that this story will grip readers. Seth and Ben walk the streets of Galveston, searching for survivors and family members. The devastation is everywhere, and the reader experiences it through the senses of Seth as he struggles to find his place in the unfamiliar world that is life after the storm.
Although this is a story of the Galveston storm, it is also Seth's story of growth, finding his own place in the world, and understanding his relationships with friends and family. The author balances the historical story with the fictional story of Seth in a perfect blend that keeps the reader turning pages until the satisfying end. Long after you close the book, you'll remember the poignant but personal stories of these characters.
Readers of any age, adult and child alike, will be drawn into this memorable story about a devastating natural disaster. I've spent a lot of time in Galveston, and have weathered my share of hurricanes, but this story let me experience one particular storm better than any other book I've read about the event.
This is a great book for classroom use, and can be used with equal success for middle grade as well as high school readers. While Seth is a teen, his younger siblings and friends also shine in this story, so it will appeal to a variety of student readers. It would make a great read-aloud book, although your students will be reluctant to have you stop and you may find yourself reading more than one chapter aloud at a time. There's an extensive author's note at the end with more information about the storm.

An amazing achievement.......2003-06-05
Nicholas Crane embarks on a journey on foot through some of the remotest parts of Europe, travelling along the chain of mountains that run from the Atlantic in Spain, to Instanbull in the East. It's not just a story about travel, but also about the human condition, about growth and fulfilment.
In parts, it's a wonderful story written with humour. Very colourful characters, an endearing umbrella, beautiful descriptions and yes even some action bring this story to life. However, I think the book falls short in some of it's loftier goals. Nicholas Crane saw the trek as more than just a walk through the watershed of Europe. He describes how the chain fascinated him in part not just because of it's great length, but also with the associations with Christianity in the west where he climbs in Spain, with Islam in the East... a division between Northern and Southern Europe... as a median between Eastern and Western Europe. I felt that he never really succeeded in exploring some of these issues in much detail and I think that's one of the disappointments in the book. It's left to the reader to reflect on his experiences, rather than drawing on the writers thoughts.
It remains an incredible journey and a good treking story that is a good read for any travel enthusiast.
A really long mountain walk.......2000-09-16
After only one year of mariage the author sets of on a journey walking from Cape Finistere (the most westerly point of continental Europe) to Istanbul (where Europe stops and Asia starts) following the high mountains of Europe. This also means that about half of the journey is in Eastern Europe, where no good maps are available. He is to travel alone most of the way, carry all his luggage with him and use no form of motorized transport.
The journey is long and hard, but also very interesting, not in the least because of the people who are met on the way. Some photographs reveal the beauty of the barren mountain landscape and the architecture found on the way (also beautifully described in the text). Several times red tape makes the journey all but impossible. It remains a question to the very end if the author will reach his goal walking.
I have a reasonable collection of walking books, but this one ranks among the best both in style as in the impressive journey undertaken.
Book Description
How human demands are outstripping the earth's capacities—and what we need to do about it.
Ever since 9/11, many have considered al Queda to be the leading threat to global security, but falling water tables in countries that contain more than half the world's people and rising temperatures worldwide pose a far more serious threat. Spreading water shortages and crop-withering heat waves are shrinking grain harvests in more and more countries, making it difficult for the world's farmers to feed 70 million more people each year. The risk is that tightening food supplies could drive up food prices, destabilizing governments in low-income grain-importing countries and disrupting global economic progress. Future security, Brown says, now depends on raising water productivity, stabilizing climate by moving beyond fossil fuels, and stabilizing population by filling the family planning gap and educating young people everywhere.
If Osama bin Laden and his colleagues succeed in diverting our attention from the real threats to our future security, they may reach their goals for reasons that even they have not imagined.

Outgrowing The Earth by Lester Brown.......2007-08-11
Excellent work as all of this author's are. This book should be required reading for all government ministers of all stated globally.
Nick Robson, South Asian Strategic Stability Institute.
enlightening review of the upcoming global food crisis.......2007-01-03
"Outgrowing the Earth" is another great contribution by Lester Brown. In ten concise chapters the author reviews the relationship between continuing human population growth and the finite land and water resources of the planet. I found the discussion of falling water tables especially interesting and important. I was also glad to see the increasing food needs of China as well as the potential for increasing food production in Brazil were both covered from several angles. There were also extensive endnotes and a decent index, both of which I found useful. In summary, this is another important and well-researched publication for anyone interested in issues of food security in these times of diminishing fuel reserves, rising temperatures, and falling water tables.
A sober, apparently scientific presentation of relevent facts .......2006-07-02
I'm not a scienttist. I recently became interested, however, in the issue of the sustanability of the human race. Much of my concern has been due to political uncertainties, but I also wondered about some fundamental environmental issues.
Since I have not read much in the field of environmentalism, I can not say for certain how solid Brown's facts are, but it does appear he presents many claims, in this book and in the web site that the book refers to, which would enable his claims (and priorities) to be tested. It would be unusual for one person to have everything right on such complex issues but if Brown has presented what he sees clearly and verifiably, that seems a great help to us all. It seems a big help to me personally.
Brown does not focus on catastrophe in this relatlively subdued 2005 book: it is clearly instead stated many times to be about food security. He is concerned, but doesn't speculate, as to how polticians and nations will react if the food security challenge is not met. Beyong warming, which dominates the news, Brown raises concerns about issues I was less familar with such as the water tables.
I definitely plan now to read Brown's "Plan B 2.0: Rescuing a Planet Under Stress and a Civilization in Trouble" which does sound more alarmist. Even if scientists ran the world, it seems we might be in grave danger but with our current set of politicians, how can we feel confident? This may be a time when every good world citizen sets aside national boundaries and steps forward to seek a solution to the earth's woes for the sake of the future of our descendants.
Outgrowing the Earth: An Imaginary Problem and Fanciful Solutions.......2005-12-11
Brown's thesis is that humanity is outgrowing the earth and putting world food security at risk. One might assume that Brown would support his thesis with charts and statistics on hunger, starvation, famine, nutrition and food prices... but one would be wrong. Outgrowing the Earth eschews all of this and instead focuses on global warming, dust storms, grain stocks, water tables and world population which are only indirectly related to food security.
The key to understanding world food security, Brown argues, is to understand world grain production. For example, the "Japan Syndrome" is a pattern of rapid industrialization followed by rising grain consumption, shrinking grainland and falling grain production (p10). Japan, South Korea and Taiwan have all followed this pattern and today they are heavily dependant on grain imports. Brown predicts that very soon China will also tumble down this path and that the world will be unable to produce enough grain to feed 1.2 billion Chinese. Brown warns that catastrophic starvation looms large in China's future.
Brown presents his discussions of water and livestock also in terms of grain production. Livestock is analyzed in terms of "protein efficiency." Fish are the most efficient at converting grain feed into live weight whereas steer are the least efficient (p44). Therefore, diets will need to shift from less efficient livestock to more efficient livestock as grain becomes increasingly scarce in the near future. In the chapter on water tables, Brown argues that when nations import grain they are, in a sense, importing water "since it takes a thousand tons of water to produce one ton of grain" (p111).
Brown's ideas about the Japan Syndrome, protein efficiency, and grain markets (i.e. water markets) are among the highlights of Outgrowing the Earth. Unfortunately, these are overshadowed by a fundamentally flawed thesis.
The problem with Brown's thesis is that recent history does not indicate an impending food catastrophe. The past 50-100 years have produced trends of falling food prices, better diets, improved nutrition, better access to clean water, less hunger, less famine and ever increasing agricultural productivity and efficiency. Brown concedes all of this but he chooses to wave such facts aside and treats his own tenuous predictions of future catastrophe as more compelling than the current real-life long-term trends of declining hunger and improving diets.
Often, Brown's ideas are plain silly. Brown believes that we can use arable land for either cropland or roads but not both. Hence, to preserve cropland Brown argues for more bicycles, more public transportation and less automobiles. He even engages in some class warfare: the competition between roads and cropland is "a struggle between the rich and the poor-between those who can afford automobiles and those who are struggling to get enough food to survive" (p93). Brown argues that wind erosion is carrying away precious topsoil and depositing it in the ocean. Wind erosion is such a serious problem in Africa that it is literally "draining the continent of its fertility" (p85). Apparently, Brown has no trouble believing that wind can carry away an entire continent's worth of topsoil! Fortunately, Brown has a solution: "for areas with strong winds and in need of electricity, such as northwestern China, wind turbines can simultaneously slow wind speeds and provide cheap electricity" (p93).
Over the past decades, plant breeders have greatly increased crop productivity by breeding hardier and pesticide resistant crops. Brown concedes that this is a good thing but he laments that plant breeders have been unable to "fundamentally improve the efficiency of photosynthesis." In fact the photosynthesis of today's crops "remains unchanged from that of their wild ancestors" (p62). Brown believes that this bodes ill for world food security.
Drip irrigation is more water efficient that current methods of irrigation, but alas, it's also very labor intensive (p113). Undeterred by the labor needs, Brown proposes that drip irrigation is well suited to countries suffering from both water shortages and high unemployment! Other deep thoughts from Outgrowing the Earth are that there are no substitutes for water and that people can "live for only a matter of days without water" (p99). Brown believes that governments should "coordinate population policy with water availability" and he's bewildered that "there appears to be no effort to do so" (p105). Notice that Brown's argument is not that water policy should be based on population but that "population policy" should be based on water availability! "Population policy" sounds like a euphemism for government restrictions on family size but Brown declines to go into specifics. In all seriousness, Brown proposes that wind power and bicycles are good for food security whereas automobiles are bad for food security. By the time Brown claims that water prices are "irrational" (p114) this reviewer was laughing out loud. I imagine that much of the world appears "irrational" to Brown.
The bulk of Outgrowing the Earth consists of many such imaginary problems and Brown's fanciful solutions. If you would also like to worry about paving over cropland, the stagnant efficiency of photosynthesis, and the soil-pilfering wind then I recommend Outgrowing the Earth for you.
must read for people who expect to eat in the future .......2005-06-07
This is an outstanding work, highlighting the very likely risk of future global food shortages and food price inflation. During most of our western-world memory there was on oversupply of basic food and governments were concerned about too much grain and prices dropping too low. Lester Brown makes a very convincing case that the opposite is likely to happen in the future. His opinions are very well documented and based on plenty of statistics.

Review of Travis Cole's Atlantis series.......2004-02-19
I recently read Travis Cole's "Atlantis" series of five books.
I found them to be an enjoyable and easy read, with clever interplay
between historical events and conjecture about their causes, and
imaginative extrapolation from them to support the story line.
Due in large part to these characteristics, I believe this story's
excellent use of fact and fantasy will pique the interest of
a wide audience all of the way down to the elementary grades.
In addition, themes are clearly presented that are particularly
relevant for our times and represent some of humanity's sorely
needed lessons. These are messages to which the younger reading
audience, and the rest of us as well, need exposure and constant
reinforcement. In a world that seems a bit more insane each time
you look at it, this story tells us to have hope and to be able to
trust, not only the benevolent race that consistently wants to help
us, but also ourselves and each other to be able to work out our
differences and control our own destiny. There are some great
messages in this story!

One of my favorites.......2003-07-17
I found Travis Cole's work to be highly creative, thought provoking and entertaining. After finishing book one, I wanted more. Thank goodness there are additional books on this fantastic journey. Even my daughter,Wendy, enjoyed reading The Waters Are Rising. I found out that the author is completely blind and that this book flowed from his inner vision and his determination to fight the progressive MS that is shutting down his body day by day. Travis Cole is a testament to the unconquerable human spirit. I highly recommend this book and his whole series. Let the journey begin for you.
A Hugely Ambitous Novel.......2002-12-03
For anyone looking for a Mitchner-esque opus in a compact form, Atlantis by Travis Cole is what you want.
Atlantis is a fascinating piece of science fiction with amazingly insightful probes into human nature. I can't wait to read the follow-up book.
I have read a little about the series of books of which Atlantis is the first. It is an enormously ambitious undertaking, and I think it will achieve the same success as the Star Wars and Star Trek series.
An Interesting Story of Atlantis That Opens Many Questions.......2002-10-11
I highly recommend this book as a very entertaining and quick read. I read the book in about 4 hours, over severals days. It's not a book that boggs you down with great detail. The author makes points quickly and moves along with the story. Several questions are left open to increase interest for the next book.
Looking forward to the release of the next book.
