A joyful celebration of a young girl's childhood, written by the late Coretta Scott King Book Award-winning Jamaican poet James Berry.

In 1807, at the height of the slave trade, Ajeemah and his son, Atu, are snatched by slave traders from their home in Africa while en route to deliver a dowry to Atu's bride-to-be. Ajeemah and Atu are then taken to Jamaica and sold to neighboring plantations'never to see one another again. Readers will come away with a new sense of respect for those who maintained their dignity and humanity under the cruelest of circumstances.'SLJ.

This collection of literature attempts to compile many of the classic works that have stood the test of time and offer them at a reduced, affordable price, in an attractive volume so that everyone can enjoy them.

My Experiences as an Executioner is a 1892 memoir by English executioner James Berry (1852-1913). Berry was most notable for his contribution to the science of hanging, refining the long drop method developed by William Marwood so as to reduce the mental and physical suffering of those hanged. In this volume, Berry offers insights into the various methods he employed as an executioner and what it was like witnessing people's final moments. Contents include: The Executioner at Home by H. Snowden Ward, How I Became an Executioner, My First Execution, My Method of Execution, Other Methods of Execution, Two Terrible Experiences, How Murderers Die, From the Murderer's Point of View, On Capital Punishment, etc. Read & Co. History is proudly republishing this classic memoir now in a brand new edition complete with the introductory essay On Anne Green, Her Execution by John Mainard.

My Experiences as an Executioner, a classical book, has been considered important throughout the human history, and so that this work is never forgotten we at Alpha Editions have made efforts in its preservation by republishing this book in a modern format for present and future generations. This whole book has been reformatted, retyped and designed. These books are not made of scanned copies of their original work and hence the text is clear and readable.

A Story I Am In is not just James Berry's life in poetry but a book of all the lives he has witnessed or been part of - a story of life itself. He came to Britain in 1948, in the first postwar wave of Jamaican emigration, later becoming one of the first black writers in Britain to achieve wider recognition. Poetry mattered to Berry from an early age, exposed to two main languages: the standard English of Bible and prayerbook heard every Sunday at church, with all its rhythms and sounding patterns; and the tunes of everyday Jamaican language, with its sayings and proverbs, its special dialect words with their African connections, its expression of a roots culture. These experiences gave him that strong and particular Caribbean awareness of language which has nourished his poetry over many years. This major retrospective of his work covers five collections published over four decades, plus a selection from four books of poetry for children. Much of his poetry celebrates the divided world of a lifelong outsider. Growing up in Jamaica, Berry felt as much disturbed by his African background as by the European slave-trade and its aftermath. His poetry shows how 'root agonies' made him view Africa as a thoughtless and neglectful mother, how his years in Britain - most of his adult life - left him worried by past, present and future. Now in his mid-80s, he has sought in his later work to give voice to all the people who came on the first ships from the Caribbean, whose journeys held strange echoes of earlier sea voyages from Africa to the slave plantations.

There is a prophecy within the Bible that was foretold by the archangel Gabriel to Daniel regarding the Jews and the holy city of Jerusalem over the span of seventy weeks. Many theologians have tried to study what the prophecy means; however, due to the unknown facts within the verses as well as there being so many different interpretations of the prophecy, no one is quite sure how to accurately define its meaning. Pastor James Berry has taken on the challenge to unravel the mystery of this perplexing prophecy in Daniel's Apocalypse I: The Prophecy. The first in a new series, readers will follow Berry as he provides his findings from his in-depth research regarding calendar dates for times in history, clarifying discrepancies of facts and timelines, covering how the prophecy has been taken out of context, and more. James is an eight-year USAF veteran. James met his lovely wife Pamela in the state of North Carolina while serving at his last duty station. Pastor Lynn Berry presided over the union of James and his wife on June 4, 2005. Both James and Pamela have been married for 16 years and have a son of the age of 14 named Samuel. James attended Barton College in Wilson, NC for 4 years from 2014-2018 earning a BS in Mass Communications. James is the current Pastor and praise and worship leader of New Life Christian Church in Colorado Springs, CO. James has been serving in this church his whole life during which time he has participated in many opportunities for traveling and ministering through worship and the word at several churches and nursing homes. James has led many Bible studies at his home and throughout his tenure of ministry.

These poems gives voice to the people who came on the first ships from the Caribbean, whose journeys held strange echoes of earlier sea voyages which had brought ancestors from Africa to the slave plantations. James Berry - from Jamaica - was one of these emigrants, settling in Britain in 1948. This late collection by Berry explores the different reasons he and his fellow travellers had for leaving the Caribbean when they rushed to get on the boat. This publication was linked with events marking the 200th anniversary of the abolition of slavery. The poems also look back on slavery and individual experiences of hardship and trying to make a living: 'Mi one milkin cow just die! / Gone, gone - and leave me / Like hurricane disaster!' Windrush Songs ranges from from lyrical pictures of Caribbean country life to poems in the voices of travellers with desires, fears, anxieties, hopes and ambitions. James Berry came to Britain on the next ship after the Windrush and shared many of the experiences that prompted this migration in search of change and a better life. Many of the poems from Windrush were included in James Berry's A Story I Am In: New & Selected Poems, but renewed interest in Windrush Songs has prompted its reissue.

The cities of the Pacific Rim are in one of the most dynamic spheres of the global economy. In the twenty first century the focus of global affairs is destined to shift from the West to the East. These cities offer a wide range of different responses to the demands that rapid growth puts on planning and infrastructure: from the laxity that has lead to the urban sprawl of Bangkok to the regulation that is characteristic of Singapore. This book considers the interactive relationships between the operation of the planning system and the role and performance of property development and real estate markets in 14 Pacific Rim cities drawn from both the Eastern and Western perspective. The dynamic underlying these relationships considers the interplay between administrative structures, legislative controls and policy issues examining the role of actors and agencies in the property development and investment process.
