"Love Letters" is a series of romantic poems, notes, and texts written by Lewis for his wife over the course of eight years, including the first year of their marriage in 2014. Some of the poems are originally found in other books by Lewis, "Process of Praise, Second Edition" and "Black Bubblegum", and the rest are brand new creations. This is for the lovers who know corny lines work. For the hopeless romantics who have nothing to lose. For the husband who knows exactly what to say. For the wife who doesn't like poetry. For the spouse who married their best friend. For the heartbroken, hurt, and healing. For the lover in all of us.

"Love Letters from Missouri" is a human interest story of a young Missouri doctor, Dr. Samuel Ayres, who joined the general exodus of 1850 to the gold fields of California in the pursuit of riches. As promised to his wife, Samuel faithfully writes letters describing his day-to-day adventures of the trail, including brief encounters with Indians, successful treatment of numerous chases of cholera along the Platte river between Fort Kearney and Fort Laramie, and celebrating the third anniversary of the establishment of the Great City of Salt Lake. Frequently he mentions his loneliness and heartbreak being away from his wife Priscilla and their two small boys, of concern for his own personal safety and of his extreme disappointment in the deteriorated conditions and lack of opportunities found in California on his arrival. Following only one actual day of labor in the gold fields, Dr. Ayres succumbed to illness and tragically dies November 19, 1850, six months and one week after his departure from his Missouri wife and family.

In the early 1950s, Pruitt-Igoe, a vast public housing project, arose on 57 acres on the near north side of St. Louis. Barely 20 years after construction, the 33 eleven-story buildings that made up the complex were razed, and the vacant land that was once home to thousands of people was gradually reclaimed by a dense, neglected urban forest. What happened in-between is a story that tempts but also defies simple narratives. It is a story of interweaving and competing accounts, both then and now. This volume approaches Pruitt-Igoe with all of its contradiction in mind. Alongside iconic images, other seldom-seen photographs flesh out the history in sometimes surprising ways and, in doing so, preserve some of the stories that are in danger of being permanently erased and lost, just as Pruitt-Igoe was.

Love Letters in a Box By: E. W. Boening For author E. W. Boening, a simple gathering one day at a friend’s house ended up turning into something much more than simple. While talking and enjoying each other’s company, her host jumped up, left the room, and, when she returned, she brought a box of letters to Boening. These letters took Boening’s breath away, as they were filled with such beautiful words of love, which she felt had to be shared with the world. Love Letters in a Box gives us a peek into American history from 1902-1912 and the lost art of love letter writing.

A spiritual and knowledgeable woman once told me that I was a Sacred Prostitute. She explained that a Sacred Prostitute is someone who soothes, nurtures and heals another and then sends them on their way to find their true destiny, a better, more emotionally complete person for the experience. I was initially confused, but eventually relieved and elated by this possibility. I sometimes felt guilty because it wasn't possible for me to ignore a woman who was strong or beautiful or talented or sweet. I had many deep but relatively short lived relationships. I was in love with many of these women. I respected and admired every single one of them. I found them simply amazing. I was never looking for notches on a bedpost, only searching for my one true Love. Many left me and moved on, found another. I was left alone, again and again, wondering...But maybe there was a reason for such an active lovelife. Maybe I really am a Sacred Prostitute! After all, very few of the women seemed to hate me when we parted. And most were married shortly after their time spent with me. I can't tell you why I was chosen as a Sacred Prostitute. I can't tell you how to become one yourself. But, in this book, I share the journeys, the thoughts and passions of 89 women that loved one, in their own words.
