Book Description
Charleston: A Historic Walking Tour will help natives and visitors alike appreciate the history and residents of this beautiful city. With its architecture, palm trees, and cobblestone streets, Charleston is one of the South's great cultural destinations. Its ballrooms and benevolent society halls attest to grand periods of opulence and high living. The theater, libraries, museum, and college show an appreciation for culture and sophistication. But don't let the city's beauty hide its turbulent history. The horrors of bombardment and occupation by conquering armies have left their marks. The city has experienced bleak times and disasters, including fires, a devastating earthquake, and hurricanes, not to mention the challenges of Reconstruction. Yet Charleston has survived its darker days, and now may be the city's finest hour.
Book Description
What's so cute about a little brown dog, anyway? And why does everyone think tie's so clever just because he can catch a ball in his mouth? That's what Henry wants to know!
When The Man brings home a new puppy named Buttons, the spunky Siamese is no longer the center of attention. But he'll show them. Yow-meowl! Isn't he the best hind-leg walker on four feet?
So Henry climbs a tree, stretches his whiskers for balance, and starts to tightrope-walk along a branch. But nobody is impressed -- until Buttons gets himself into a fix and only an aerial artist like Henry can save him.
Mary Calhoun's gently humorous story and Erick Ingraham's breathtaking illustrations combine in a rollicking picture-book adventure that will delight the feline daredevil's countless fans.
Customer Reviews:
Wonderful book, adorable artwork - great story.......2007-04-13
My children absolutely love this book and I love reading it to them. It is a wonderful story with lots of humor and a heartwarming ending. Henry is a very entertaining character for adults and children.
What will Henry the cat do next?.......2001-09-01
My daughter absolutely loves Henry the adventerous cat. I believe that we have most all of Mary Calhoun's childrens books. The Henry the cat books are illustrated and written wonderfully. We can't wait until Henry the x-mas cat book comes out!
A talented Siamese cat cleverly overcomes "sibling rivalry".......1999-08-11
Kids will love the Henry books! Henry is a very talented Siamese cat who learns to balance on his hind legs. He puts his talent to good use when he rescues the newcomer to the family. Kids will love this book because it successfully blends suspense with the themes of sibling rivalry and working hard to overcome obstacles. And, of course, it has a happy ending! On another level, parents and teachers can use this engaging story as a way to tie in to discussions about the scientific concepts of balance (center of gravity) and motion. Suitable for pre-K to grade 3.

Book Description
A hidden tradition of Christian spirituality has always existed alongside the institution of the Christian church. In the past only a few hardy pilgrims explored the mysteries of the hidden tradition on the "spiritual bypaths," whereas the majority of Christians traveled upon the familiar "highway" represented by the church. However, the challenges of our modern world demand that we explore the riches of Christianity's hidden tradition, and recent discoveries have opened the spiritual bypaths to all dedicated seekers. Walking the Path of ChristoSopia invites you to join in the quest along the nature, feminine, and mystical bypaths of Christian spirituality as it integrates scholarly investigations of the hidden tradition with practical applications to help the contemporary seeker explore these bypaths.

The Mystery at the Heart of the Cosmos.......2007-02-16
This book is like a spring of precious water that can nourish and sustain the reader over many years, even a lifetime. Lovingly wrought, it can be consulted again and again for its wisdom and insight. Working together, the authors have recovered for us vital elements of the Christian tradition that have been lost or excluded from mainstream teaching, to the great impoverishment of Christianity as a whole. At this crucial time of choice for humanity, their book reveals the way of the heart that could unify the visible and invisible dimensions of life, reconnecting nature with spirit, body with soul. The great spiritual task of our time as they see it, is to integrate the ancient wisdom that recognized divine immanence as the feminine face of God with the extraordinary scientific discoveries that point to our participation in the awesome Mystery at the heart of the cosmos.
Highly Recommended Book for People of All Faiths.......2006-09-22
This marvelous book points the way for all who are concerned with peace, justice, and the survival of the planet. With power and grace, the authors demonstrate that the path of ChristoSophia balances the Divine Feminine and the Divine Masculine, thus restoring humankind and all creation. The authors' scholarship is impressive and their style is accessible, as they synthesize a wide variety of traditional and excluded sources.
Cynthia Avens and Richard Zelley use the apt metaphor of "bypaths" for the hidden traditions within Christianity. The creative symbol of ChristoSophia restores the Divine Feminine to her original prominent place in Christianity. The institutional Church suppressed Sophia; the authors show that it is imperative to rediscover her in the "bypaths" of the Christian tradition. This insightful book reveals ways that ChristoSophia resurrects the Divine Feminine, restores the natural world, and recovers the mystical Christian tradition.
I highly recommend WALKING THE PATH OF CHRISTOSOPHIA to people of all faiths who desire a deeper spiritual experience, equality and justice in human relationships, and the restoration of the earth.

Wonderful Guide .......2006-07-02
What a wonderful guide to greater spiritual fulfillment.
In their scholarly but eminently readable book, Avens and Zelley explain the important role of women in early Christianity, focusing on the two Marys, and celebrate the significance of Sophia, the feminine aspect of the Divine.
The authors also discuss the hidden revelations of lost scriptures, the role of Celtic Christianity, the history of the Holy Grail, the symbolism of the Green Man in nature, the mysteries of the Kabbalah and the rewards of walking a unique spiritual bypath...that of the ChristoSophia...which acknowledges the union of feminine and masculine divinity, the sacredness of nature and the rewards of mystical experience.
The authors' genuine belief in the spiritual rewards of walking "the path with a heart" is likely to appeal to readers of all faiths, and perhaps even those who have lost their way along the spiritual highway.

A "ByWay" on the Path of Christian Mysticism.......2006-02-07
This wonderful little book will assist those who wish to explore the various "ByWays" along the Christian Mystical path..
The authors pull together an interesting and insightful synthesis of The Feminine, Nature, and Mysticism,to lay the foundation for the Christo-Sophaic path of Christian Mysticism.
I would highly recommend this book for those interested in exploring Christian Mysticism..

Book Description
A walk can be much more than great exercise -- if you know how to renew your body, mind, and spirit with a MindWalk. MindWalks combines easy, inspiring mental exercises and meditations, which help you make a simple walk more productive, relaxing and fun, with exquisitely written observations in the tradition of Thoreau's Walden.
More and more people are walking for exercise because it provides most of the benefit of running or aerobics without punishing stress on the body. MindWalks shows you how to double the benefit of your exercise by using the time to solve problems, reduce the impact of stress, manage your emotions, and enjoy the world around you more. With MindWalks, you make the most of your time by improving your mental state while you work on your physical well-being.
But MindWalks is more than just useful information. It opens your eyes to the everyday wonders that lie all around you if you know how to spot them. Done right, a MindWalk isn't just about exercise. It's also about inhaling the smell of crisp salt air at the beach. It's about spotting a jogger with a parakeet on her head. And it's about discovering one special thing each day that makes a walk worthwhile. In short, it's about enjoying yourself.
This collection of meditations and mental exercises use awareness, humor, and practical advice to turn a walk into exercise for both body and brain. MindWalks can be tucked into a pocket and taken on your walk. It makes a perfect gift for someone who already enjoys a walk -- or for someone who's thinking about starting. Because MindWalks makes walking more fun, it can motivate you to walk more often.
MindWalks will appeal to the growing number of baby boomers who want easier, more enjoyable ways to exercise while combating the stress of everyday life.

Walking enlightenment.......2002-06-24
Mindwalks gets you out on your path with mindful approaches to walking that help keep you motivated.
A terrific inspiration.......2002-06-18
I picked this up on a whim because the price was right, and boy, have I been glad I did! It goes so far beyond just reinforcing the mind/body connection as it relates to walking. It's beautifully written; I like to read one or two sections every day to get me inspired in the morning. It's helped me use my walks more creatively, and look at the world in a new way.
I can't recommend it highly enough.
Keep it Simple.......2000-07-26
A lot of books on relaxation and stress-reduction are complicated and time consuming. Mindwalks is so simple. The concepts are easy to understand and they are not easily lost when you begin your journey. Start off slow with the book because it is so easy to read the whole thing through. Read a couple of different mindwalks and actually attempt them on a walk. It makes the book so much more enjoyable. Two thumbs up to Mary Frakes for an excellent, simple, and inspirational book.
very motivating and inspirational.......1999-08-26
I thoroughly enjoyed this book. It really helps to look at an average daily walk in a new way and made me excited about a walk i took over and over. i would recommend this book to anyone that liked walking and exploring new ways of doing it!
The big hatpin.......1999-05-08
I call it "the big hatpin." We're all looking for more time/space for ourselves. This little book has short, easy-to-digest chapters (no major commitment required). Just the thing to get the mentally overburdened, physically underachieving boomer off the rear end and onto the feet -- so we feel we're claiming time and space for our own, not just "doing something I know I ought to do."
