Here
is what the publisher says about Gifts for the Road. Enter the
historical world of Jesus. In Gifts for the Road, McDaniel demonstrates her
storytelling prowess as she chronicles Jesus’ birth in the midst of harrowing
tragedy.
Joseph,
Mary, and Jesus, with helpers and borrowed servants, flee to Egypt from Bethlehem
under the threat of Herod’s soldiers looking to kill Jesus. Two bungling
thieves are also close behind hoping to steal the money Joseph carries with him.
Travel with the wayfarers as they sleep in caves, face wild animals, ride
camels and sail the Mediterranean. Meet the families along the way that Joseph
and Mary share prophecy with and tell of Jesus’ birth when they are asked why they’re
so far from home. Journey nearly two hundred miles south of Memphis to the cave
where they live for over six months. Find out the fate of the two crooks and experience
romance among the travelers when they help a destitute family in Alexandria get
back on their feet. Meet the wealthy Roman who offers them safe travel back to
Israel on his Roman vessel.
Gifts for the Road incorporates
Prophecy
and truth, as well as traditions and myths established by the Coptic Orthodox
Church and folklore recorded in Eastern and Western apocryphal literature.
