Using vignettes set in or near his monastery in downtown Newark, New Jersey, Benedictine monk Albert Holtz helps us to see that the Easter mystery, which can often seem abstract and distant, is in fact present all around us. As we accompany him through the fifty days of the Easter season, we listen in on his intriguing interactions with local street people and his inner-city high school students--an insider's look at what goes on in a monk's heart as he chants Vespers to the sound of police sirens. Anyone wishing to deepen his or her experience of the Easter mystery will find this a valuable and engaging book.

The results of Albert Kurek¿s many years of research are found in his book ¿The Troopers Are Coming¿. His information was taken from newspapers, court records and recollections of those who served. It is a historically accurate account of the first 25 years of the New York Troopers with emphasis on Western New York. It provides the reader with a view of the everyday life of the early troopers.
