Book Description HTML

In the eastern side of the Dead Sea rose the citadel of Machaerus. It was built upon a conical peak of basalt, and was surrounded by four deep valleys, one on each side, another in front, and the fourth in the rear. At the base of the citadel, crowding against one another, a group of houses stood within the circle of a wall, whose outlines undulated with the unevenness of the soil.

    I understand. I only wrote it so I would remember. I made sure I did not editorialize so truth would be in plain sight. Yes. I could have made it a remarkable story had I wanted to embellish it with my feelings, but I wrote this story quite a while back and still I am discovering what happened. I still do not know what my Dad did for a living involving the Secret Service. Yes. is still difficult to read.

    This is written in a very "matter of fact" way. No emotions are expressed which makes it difficult to read, but read it I did. I too, strive for truth, but it is still a matter of perception and or interpretation. I really didn't find any "challenge" in the book and unfortunately, to me, there didn't seem to be any purpose to the story. Sorry, but this is my personal opinion.

    My name is Wade Welch. I gave up materialism and have been walking the state of Texas carrying everything I own since February 2013. I have had a few experiences involving the influence from angels, as I see that if I am walking it allows them to influence me. I am suffering from severe seizures and don't have more than a couple of years to live. This is the perfect way for government to deal with a person who challenges their lies.I am only a couple of months away (maybe by Halloween 2014) from finishing what will likely be my last book, and is the bottom line of my work. The answers are there for those who care.
