Legendary mountain man James P. Beckwourth was an icon of his time, and an inspiration to generations of wilderness explorers and adventurers.

A chapter-by-chapter recollection of the greatest adventures of Beckwourth's life, this autobiography recounts the experiences which served to build the legend around his name.

Born a slave to a white father and a black, enslaved mother, Beckwourth never knew or experienced easy living. Apprenticed as a blacksmith by his father and master, an argument with the smithy led to his expulsion from the job. After the family moved to Missouri, the assertive young James persuaded his father to free him from slavery; after a series of court hearings between 1824 and 1826, he gained his freedom.

Life as a free man of black heritage was difficult in the United States of the early 19th century. Finding nature to be better company than his fellow man much of the time, the young Beckwourth headed westward and joined the Rocky Mountain Fur Company.

Great complete start to finish steps setting up a website online for programmers
Format: Paperback
It was nice to have a collection of topics covered over the whole development and deployment process. As a newly retired CSC professor who has not done any work in the Web area it was nice to have so much basic useful material in one place. The source code examples all being online to download is very nice to help overcome the requirement for the book to limit full examples of complete code. I offered to put up a small website for and small non-profit and this text gave me information on every step from finding a host to front-end and backend development at little or no cost. Saved me a lot of online research as it gave a complete picture of what will be needed from start to end. It is a Dummies book so if you want to become expert it only gets you started but far enough into each topic to allow you to grow on your own after that.

Awesome Book!!
Format: Kindle
I was a little skeptical about reading this book due to previous encounters with the Holy Spirit concerning Tim Ross. However, I believe GOD has given me clearance to read this book, and because of this book or shall I say the GOD given words in this book, Welcome to the Basement has been a comprised or a condensed yet straight to the point version of another book I was in the process of reading. It took the leg work out and made it into a simple and clear insight on how to practice the way of Jesus based on the life of Jesus and how to invite others to the table to eat with Jesus. I truly enjoyed this book and can't wait to slowly start back getting down into the basement. Thank You GOD and thank you, Tim Ross, for this book. It was a goldmine!! Peace, love, blessings, Erika.

You go up by going down…Welcome To The Basement!
Format: Hardcover
Tim Ross has taken the concept of The Basement and splashed them in black and white on the pages of this book! WTTB is a not only a guide but quite literally a masterclass on how to love the way Jesus loves. As a follower of Jesus for some time, I am impressed by Tim’s fresh perspectives, vivid writing style and conversational approach to this work. Welcome To The Basement simply feels like Tim on an extended episode of The Basement podcast. This page-turner of a book is a must read for all people who want to experience a radical approach to doing ministry in a postmodern world among people who question the validity of scripture and the relevance of Jesus and His Church. Become a “Basement dweller”!

Press B!
Format: Hardcover
"Welcome to the Basement" by Tim Ross is an incredible guide to achieving true greatness through humility and service. Having known Ross as a great mentor to a dear friend, I was eager to dive into this book. The principles he share are both radical and deeply needed in our world today. This fully revised edition of his previous work, "Upset the World," is timely and relevant, addressing today's unique challenges. Ross's personal insights and practical guidance make this book a must-read for anyone looking to have a deeper connection to God. The audiobook, read by Ross himself, adds an extra layer of connection and authenticity.
