Here’s the cover:

Coming June 2012… UXL Encyclopedia of Native American Tribes (Gale/UXL):

UXL Encyclopedia of Native American Tribes

UXL Encyclopedia of Native American Tribes

“Each detailed entry is presented in consistent rubrics that allow for easy access … This is a valiant effort to put into some kind of order the history and current status of the native peoples of this land, at least insofar as our tribes/nations are concerned … This is the best I’ve seen and I would strongly urge every school, agency, and government to have a copy on their finger-tips.”    ~Moccasin Print

Released 2011… Pirates Through the Ages (Cengage):

Pirates Through the Ages

Pirates Through the Ages: Primary Sources

Both of these books below came out in 2009 on the same day, but from different publishers. Rather like having twins, but without the night feedings.

Rihanna (People in the News) [Lucent]Rihanna (People in the News)

Review:

“Author Laurie J. Edwards does a wonderful job of presenting Rihanna’s life in a readable format. Beginning with the singer’s rough childhood with her cocaine-addicted father to her signing a contract with Jay-Z at age 16 and her subsequent rise to fame, the biography is a page-turner. Edwards draws you in and keeps you interested throughout as she tells little-known details of the behind-the-scenes persona of Rihanna. Sneak peeks at other performers, such as Gwen Stefani, Maroon 5, Ne-Yo, Chris Brown, and many others.”

Summer Lovin’

“Summer Storms” in Summer Lovin’

(Wild Rose Press)

Reviews:

“I’ve never read anything by Ms. Edwards, but I have to say after reading this story that I plan to read some more from this talented author. Summer Storms was my favorite of the anthology….

A heart touching story. More about change than romance but one still to affect any reader. There is some great writing going on in this story. I could feel the urgency and emotions of these characters caught in a possibly deadly situation. Outstanding.”
~Long and Short Romance

“I loved all of the stories in this book. Each story was a unique summer themed love story that was able to stand alone by itself. And…I got caught up in each story. I would recommend this book to anyone looking for a fun, breezy, summer read.” ~5-star review from Amazon

“…immensely satisfying and truly enjoyable.” ~You Gotta Read Reviews

“Summer Lovin’ is a perfect book to read poolside or at the beach.” ~The Romance Studio
