On a slope above a mountain lake in Alaska’s Brooks Range, Sam and Billie Wright built a twelve-by-twelve-foot log cabin with hand tools and named it Koviashuvik—an Eskimo word meaning "living in the present moment with quiet joy and happiness." Sam’s account of the twenty years they spent there is both a tale of wilderness survival and an inspiring meditation on the natural world and humanity’s relationship to it.

You Are Being Betrayed by the U.S. Government

YOU ARE BEING BETRAYED BY THE U.S. GOVERNMENT is a must read book for all Americans written by an American about the Constitution of the United States, the unconstitutional acts of the Government of the United States, and the abuses We the People suffer because of the Government's unconstitutional behavior. Every citizen of this country has a personal stake in our Government's unconstitutional conduct. This book explains step-by-step in simple, clear, and easy to understand language the unconstitutional behavior of the U.S. Government and how YOUR RIGHTS are being trampled upon. The unconstitutional acts described within are not the result of the Government's attempt to protect YOU from terror or anything else. Each Branch of the Federal Government is ignoring the Rights and the principles in the Constitution. The behavior of officials in each Branch of the Government proves that when our Constitution becomes inconvenient for them, they simply ignore it. The Executive Branch is out of control because Government officials are not held accountable for failing to support the Constitution. The Executive Branch is running amuck and fails to follow the rules and laws written by Congress. Congress fails to take the action necessary when it is perfectly clear to Congress that the Executive Branch is not upholding the Constitution or the laws. Federal judges, including the Justices of the Supreme Court, have repeatedly issued decisions that ignore the Constitution and the laws written by Congress. Congress can remove Federal judges, but the threat of removal has not deterred Federal judges. Federal judges do as they please!! Why? Because Congress permits them to!! Congress is our defense against oppressive Government officials. Congress is our watchdog for the store (the store being our Rights). Congress has failed to attend to its responsibilities. The checks and balances are no longer fully operative because Congress does not perform its watchdog function.

Dr. Sam Wright admits it--he was born a smart aleck. Even thought he has a Ph.D., has taught in the field of biblical studies, and has been a pastor for decades, Dr. Wright has spent his life asking such questions as: If God created light and called the light good, was God afraid of the dark?Is there a Mrs. God?When God gave Himself an "A" for creating the world, was that like grading his own paper?Who mucked out the stalls on the ark?Why did it take Noah so long (ten months) to open a window?Improper questions? Maybe. But God winks as Dr. Wright chuckles his way through the stories we learned at the knees of our Sunday school teachers, pastors, and Vacation Bible School leaders. In this first book, he invites readers to journey through the first 17 chapters of Genesis with a mind toward the questions most of us never think to ask. Get your tickle box ready ... this is funny stuff.
