Robert Barclay (1648-1690) is most widely known for writing the Apology for the True Christian Divinity. But this was not his first important Quaker work. A Catechism and Confession of Faith was written in 1673, about seven years after his “convincement” of the truth, and when he was only 24 years old. Paul Anderson: “. . . An excellent discussion resource and study guide for young people and adults alike seeking to be deepened in Quaker beliefs and perspectives . . . .”

Inside you will find gripping tales of unrelieved happiness, of smile-inducing euphoria, and relentless fun. This book might also cause fits, spasms, and a sudden popping of the joints, even inthose who tend toward frowning, sneering, and general negativity. Those who resist might spontaneously implode. For the rest of us, Hawai'i Smiles contains just what the world of literature, and the world at large, has been needing for a long time a great big dose of lightening up!

In the spirit of The Notebook and The Time Traveler's Wife comes Robert Barclay's haunting and romantic novel of passion, destiny, loss and an eternal love that will bring two people together across time. His name was Garrett Richmond and he had always wanted to live by the ocean. So when the opportunity to buy--and renovate--the old home known as Seaside arrived, he leapt at the chance. Never mind that his friends and family thought he was crazy, he knew he could return this lonely mansion, worn by time, wind, and neglect, to its former beauty. But Seaside was more than just a project; it was spot that had called to him his entire life. And then one night he saw her . . . Her name is Constance Elizabeth Canfield and she tells him Seaside has been her home for over 150 years. But Constance is no ghost; rather, she claims that she has been somehow magically trapped between this life and the next. At first, Garrett can't believe her crazy story--the woman had to be lying! And yet, there was something about Constance that was from another time . . . Soon this mysterious woman and flesh and blood man share a closeness they cannot deny. But just as their love begins to bloom, Constance's presence starts mysteriously fading away, soon to be gone forever. Is their love doomed--or is it strong enough to transcend time, and even death itself?

More than anything, Cam Porter wants to join the South Shore Centaurs, a local riding club, but first she needs a horse—any horse. Cam thinks she’s found a way to make her dream come true when she comes across a shaggy, neglected gelding that nobody else wants. She dreams of turning him into the magnificent horse she’s always wanted.  But Galahad has different ideas. He hates the saddle and fights the bit. Every time Cam gets on his back, he bucks. It looks as though she’ll never get him trained! Then one day, when Galahad meets another horse, he finally comes to life. He’s suddenly cooperative and good-natured. But when Cam tries to work with him again, Galahad returns to his old tricks. Maybe all he needs is a true friend. Can Cam ever grow to care for such an unlovable beast?
