About this ebook
What causes brother to rise up against brother? Can men, nations, and families ever experience true unity and peace? Will racism and hatred finally be eradicated? War often seems to be man's answer for settling disputes and thwarting evil. Perhaps the best solution to our conflicts doesn't reside in this world. When a Civil War chaplain finds himself dodging death-stamped mini balls and dismembering shrapnel, he realizes there is a better way, a final, lasting hope.

"Scott Johnson turns his multiyear pursuit of truth and justice on the trail of one "mendacious" lawyer into a relentless documentation of the worst excesses that have cost consumers billions. The next time someone wonders why they can't find affordable home insurance, hand them this book." William Stander, Executive Director Florida Property & Casualty Association.

The Better Country
All these people were still living by faith when they died. They did not receive the things promised; they only saw them and welcomed them from a distance, admitting that they were foreigners and strangers on earth. People who say such things show that they are looking for a country of their own. If they had been thinking of the country they had left, they would have had opportunity to return. Instead, they were longing for a better country—a heavenly one. Therefore God is not ashamed to be called their God, for he has prepared a city for them.
Hebrews 11: 13-16

The rhythmic sounds of katydids calmed the weary soldiers and ushered in the night. The forest smoldered from the earlier conflict, the horrific
