Pennies From Heaven

The latest book published by OMNI Book Publishing is a tasteful work by Mr. Samuel J. Elliott, a complete artist from North Carolina.

"Pennies From Heaven" brings us Mr. Elliott's poems enhanced by his photographs and paintings, and together they form a beautiful book. This is a combination of the visual and sensitive expressions through poetry; these are poems that are easy to understand and that depict his life as a talented artist who is proud of his land and heritage. From his great-great grandfather in the early 1800s, a Presbyterian missionary who rescued the Dakota Indians and baptized and saved over 300 in one day to other members of his family who were the first founders of the famous Underground Railroad, we hear their stories told by Mr. Elliott with pride. This is a testimony to always endure and never give up. It is his message to be heard at this time of trials for many people.

A grant from the Arts Council oif Hendersonville, North Carolina, opened the door for Mr. Elliott to fulfill his dream of seeing his art and talent published for all of us to enjoy.

A beautiful book to own and to give to others.
