This is a powerful historical novel that immediately captures the reader's attention with its portrayal of the Antebellum South from the perspective of a Black slave owner. It is based upon the life of Andrew Durnford, who built a successful sugar plantation on the banks of the Mississippi, 35 miles below New Orleans. The author obtained his information for the novel from the old records of St. Rosalie Plantation, Durnford's letters, Probate Records, newspapers from the period, and historical accounts relating to New Orleans prior to the Civil War. Through his portrayal of Andrew Durnford, Daudert brings to the reader a better understanding of the various issues and attitudes that were common toward the institution of slavery during this era. Daudert has addressed slavery in an honest and unbiased manner, and The Temptation of St. Rosalie will impact readers directly with its representation of this controversial subject.

The Temptation of St. Rosalie

The challenges in ecosystem science encompass a broadening and strengthening of interdisciplinary ties, the transfer of knowledge of the ecosystem across scales, and the inclusion of anthropogenic impacts and human behavior into ecosystem, landscape, and regional models. The volume addresses these points within the context of studies in major ecosystem types viewed as the building blocks of central European landscapes. The research is evaluated to increase the understanding of the processes in order to unite ecosystem science with resource management. The comparison embraces coastal lowland forests, associated wetlands and lakes, agricultural land use, and montane and alpine forests. Techniques for upscaling focus on process modelling at stand and landscape scales and the use of remote sensing for landscape-level model parameterization and testing. The case studies demonstrate ways for ecosystem scientists, managers, and social scientists to cooperate.

The purpose of this book is to make the Scriptures "come alive" by tying the stories of the Bible closely to the well-known people and events of the time. For example, we all know the story of Jesus' birth at Bethlehem, but how many of us realize that Herod the Great, who ruled over Judea when Jesus was born, was put upon the throne by the Roman General Mark Antony, and that Antony and Cleopatra committed suicide less than 25 years before Jesus was born. The first question many ask regarding the life of Jesus of Nazareth is: "Do you mean he actually existed?" The answer is: "Of course he did." The historical record establishes beyond a doubt that Jesus lived in Galilee and that he was crucified in Jerusalem by Pontius Pilate. Presenting those historical facts, not reconstructed fantasy, is the aim of Charles Daudert's research and his purpose in writing this book. And here, he correctly observes that-far more than any other religious system in the world-Christianity's Holy Book deals in fact-solid, sober fact-in its historical segments. Only one other religion in the world can also make that claim, since its Holy Book is similarly factual, and that is Christianity's parent, namely Judaism History buffs looking for more detailed information on the life of Jesus and the early Church will find the sources quoted in this book to be rich, rewarding and reliable. Others, whose curiosity regarding Jesus and the early Christians may have been aroused by popular movies or television programs, but who are overwhelmed by Bibles consisting of 2000 pages of small print, will find this book a comfortable place to begin.
