Gibbs, Lee W.
2024 1-4955-1191- x 256 pages
"It may be discerned through the proceeding parts of this book my own spiritual pilgrimage from hard line double predestination to potential universal salvation through the metamorphoses of Calfinist thinking as reflected in my life-long research into the writings of Calvin, and three other great theologians--William Ames, Richard Hooker, and Charles Chauncy--who were all heavily influence by Calvin. The discussion of each of these figures addresses each of the following questions: (1) How much of Calvin did they change? (2) How much of Calvin did they retain? (3) What difference did it make?" -from The Author's "Preface"

Boccagna, David L.

"[H]ere are my recollections, remembrances, memoirs and performances essentially from 1956 through 1958 when I lived with Joe in New Haven, Connecticut, and in later years when performing with him. Essentially it is a brief epoch of the time I spent with him, but, as the reader will discover, his influence lives on today with an even greater impact now, than it had when I lived with him." - David Boccagna (Memoirs Prelude)

Hinkle, William G.
2024 1-4955-1197-9 164 pages
"This book is a composite of how the Indiana Department of Correction attempts to comply with the courts, the state constitution, and the ever-swinging philosophical pendulum. We provide public safety while preparing the offenders for their eventual return to the streets." -from The Author's "Introduction" "Ed was uniquely qualified to write this book. Unfortunately, he did not live long enough to finish and publish it. ...I prepared it for publication by The Edwin Mellen Press. With 36 years of experience, Ed's collection of essays speaks to us actively. It gives us unprecedented insight into the world of the Indiana Department of Correction's Commissioner. His work is a living history, and he is undoubtedly the only Commissioner in the history of the I.D.O.C. to publish his experiences." -Dr. William Hinkle, "Foreword"
