There Is A Fountain

Now lawyer since Clarence Darrow has had such a colorful career and successfully defended so many controversial cases as Lynn, whose autobiography spans 60 years of legal and political struggle for equality and justice for the disenfranchised. "The Clarence Darrows, the Andrew Hamiltons, the Leonard Boudins, and, of course, the Conrad Lynns . . . have managed to keep alive freedom's most cherished ideals."--William M. Kunstler, from the foreword.

In In the Bleak Midwinter, Julia Spencer-Fleming's Malice Domestic-winning first mystery, Reverend Clare Fergusson was quickly introduced to a more eventful life than she had expected after moving to the small town of Millers Kill in upstate New York. But the Episcopal priest and former Army Air Force chopper pilot proved to her flock—and to police chief Russ Van Alstyne—that she could cope with the unexpected, even when it was as dire as murder. In this new adventure for the two ill-matched friends (who are gamely resisting something beyond friendship), evidence shows that a small town can hold just as much evil as the Wicked City. The Chicago Tribune says "[Spencer-Fleming] pulls it off again" in A Fountain Filled With Blood.

Offering practical instruction on how to perform the Tibetan Rites of Rejuvenation, which will take only minutes a day, many practitioners have experienced benefits, including increased energy, weight loss, better memory, new hair growth, pain relief, better digestion, and feeling overall more youthful. Legend has it that hidden in the remote reaches of the Himalayan mountains lies a secret that would have saved Ponce de Leon from years of fruitless searching for the Fountain of Youth. There, generations of Tibetan monks have passed down a series of exercises with mystical, age-reversing properties. Known as the Tibetan Rites of Rejuvenation or the Five Rites, these once-secret exercises are now available to Westerners in Ancient Secret of the Fountain Of Youth. Peter Kelder's book begins with an account of his own introduction to the rites by way of Colonel Bradford, a mysterious retired British army officer who learned of the rites while journeying high up in the Himalayas. Fountain of Youth then offers practical instructions for each of the five rites, which resemble yoga postures. Taking just minutes a day to perform, the benefits for practitioners have included increased energy, weight loss, better memory, new hair growth, pain relief, better digestion, and feeling overall more youthful.

MAKE A FOUNTAIN is a catalog accompanying Ying Liu's 2017 play HANG OUT. The site-specific events took place at the All Purpose Field in New York's Sara D. Roosevelt Park, and explored the impact of new visual technologies on everyday modes of public spectatorship. HANG OUT hybridized performance art and theater while utilizing virtual reality technology, and was borne out of a fascination with the site's built-in distractions and audience. The work sought to relate to its viewership in an unassuming way, remaining playful while experimenting with conditions of inquisitiveness and diffused attention. MAKE A FOUNTAIN is designed to anthologize and make sense of the three-episode work, which considered the boundaries, politics, and social dimensions of curiosity through a series of interactive performances and encounters. The book includes numerous first-hand accounts as well as extensive photo documentation of HANG OUT and its two prototypes.

Fountain is a character in its own play, its face worn by the years, traced by the touch of familiar hands. On the gentle slope of a Georgia hill sits Fountain Campground. For years, it has hosted the Camp Meeting, a week-long religious revival complete with tents, food, prayer, and praise. Author Dale Wiley grew up loving this great Georgia institution, an integral part of his family's life and faith. For his entire life, he heard the old stories about Fountain Camp Meeting. But when he found a treasure trove of information on the site's past, he discovered a story much different from the one of his childhood. Full of friendship, warmth, and love, the Fountain Campground continues to represent a rich tradition of faith. Through a compelling mixture of vivid detail and personal recollection, Wiley takes you to the present-day camp area and to the Southern kitchens that make the meeting experience so memorable. He also traces the roots of its inception nearly two hundred years ago, revealing little-known facts about Georgia's history. Part history, part memoir, and part cookbook, There Is a Fountain: Voices and Stories of an Old-Time Southern Camp Meeting takes you deep into the heart of Southern religion.
