"A Walk Through Time" is a landmark book, gorgeously illustrating the remarkable drama of the history of the universe, from the furious blast of the Big Bang to the first pulse of life on Earth and on through the rich pageant of life's evolution from primordial microbes to the rise of "Homo sapiens". 130 color illustrations.

Steve Noon's award-winning A Street Through Time has been revised and updated for a new generation. In a series of fourteen unique illustrations, A Street Through Time tells the story of human history by exploring a street as it evolves from 10,000 BCE to the present day. Readers will see how the landscape and the daily lives of people changed as a small settlement grows into a city, is struck by war and plague, and gains trade and industry.

The remarkable classic of nature writing by the first man ever to have walked the entire length of the Grand Canyon.

When he learns that his pregnant wife has been spirited off to a distant city, William responds as any man might—he drops everything to pursue her. But as a fugitive slave in Antebellum America, he must run a terrifying gauntlet, eluding the many who would re-enslave him while learning to trust the few who dare to aid him on his quest. Among those hunting William is Morrison, a Scot who as a young man fled the miseries of his homeland only to discover even more brutal realities in the New World. Bearing many scars, including the loss of his beloved brother, Morrison tracks William for reasons of his own, a personal agenda rooted in tragic events that have haunted him for decades. Following up on his award-winning debut, Gabriel’s Story, David Anthony Durham presents another riveting tale, a brilliantly drawn portrait of America before the Civil War, and a provocative meditation on racial identity, freedom and equality.

Sit back, relax, and lose yourself in the fascinating life adventures of a real human being, a person like you and me. As you do, you’ll embark on a familiar, satisfying, and often exhilarating journey of love, joy, sorrow, achievement, and self-discovery. Gary H. Fowler is a Vietnam veteran. He has worked on most of the United States Navy’s aircraft carriers, and for years he worked in direct service to several presidents of the United States. At the time of this publication, he works as a scientific photographer. He is a loving and dedicated father, son, brother, and friend, and perhaps most importantly, he is a dedicated born-again Christian. Gary’s beloved mother asked him to write a book detailing his life experiences. This is such a book. He writes not only about the above-mentioned events, but many others as well. In all cases he tells the truth of his life as he remembers it, even when some of it involves “the good, the bad, and the ugly” that may be more than his mother cared to know. A Walk Through Time is a book of life stories dating back to August 18, 1942, when he was born, written in sixty-five memoirs, at the request of a mother who loves her son and wants the world to know him better. It is a gift to Gary’s mother and a gift to you as well. It will make you laugh and cry, and you will recognize yourself in its pages. It is proof that there are no “ordinary” people and that we each have unique and important stories to tell.
