The Worldwide Flood: Uncovering and Correcting the Most Profound Error in the History of Science

Two hundred years ago, geologists determined that there was never a worldwide flood.
But the early geologists' conclusion--which continues to be believed today--is indisputably erroneous, according to Michael Jaye, Ph.D.
Told in easily understood language, Jaye explains how geologists got it so wrong, and more importantly, he challenges their modern-day peers to examine foundational beliefs, especially in the presence of new map data. Along the way, he identifies and rectifies geology's historic error and its consequences, answering questions such as: 
Why do geologists believe that there was never a worldwide flood? How is this belief erroneous?
How did submerged structures like Monterey Canyon form? What process do geologists ascribe to their formation?
In what way are Google Earth and Google Maps similar to Galileo's telescope?
With new map data revealing submerged rivers in more than two miles of water, it's clear that such a volume could only have a cosmic source.
Jaye identifies the impact remnants, and he explains how its effects irreversibly changed Earth's ecosystem. Humans are among surviving species, but we find ourselves ill-adapted to the post-flood ecosystem.
Discover a historical, scientific, and philosophical treatment of The Worldwide Flood--it will forever change the way you consider Earth and human history.

While growing up on a farm in New England, Zachary Bower does not have much time to play. But when he is not doing chores and learning to read and write, he happily reenacts the glory of his brothers stories fighting the British during the War of Independence.  After his mother tragically dies in 1789, Zacharys uncle invites him on his next expedition at sea.

It is 1790 when Zachary, the schooner, and its weapons are captured by Kamehameha and his army. As Zachary eventually transforms into a Kamehameha warrior, he becomes immersed in fierce battles like the ones that once enveloped his childhood imagination. But will he survive his new reality? In this historical novel, a lad from New England is unwittingly thrust into the army of Kamehameha and the wars to unite the Hawaiian Islands during the late eighteenth century.
