Titanic - the most magnificent ocean liner of her time - was doomed and destined for disaster before she ever left the docks at Southampton. Doomed by her owner, doomed by her designers, doomed by the men who sailed her -- doomed even by her sister ship.

"Author S.A. Cosby meets Netflix blockbuster Money Heist in the first novel by New York Times bestselling author and global superstar Curtis '50 Cent' Jackson, who confidently charts the journeys of Nia Robinson, a Texas ranger who is on the hunt for wily bank robber Desmond Roberts in this high-tension, fast-moving page turner about power, equity, and revenge"--

On the occasion of her one hundredth birthday in 2001, a new edition of Laura Riding's collected poems. Always ahead of her time, no other major poet of the last century enters the twenty-first so fresh, so essentially unexplored as does Laura Riding. Her formidable credentials as a modernist need no longer distract attention from the class-of-her-own this writer occupies. Beginning in spiritual respect for Shelley, Whitman, and Francis Thompson, Riding's resolve to work toward nothing less than "the essence of the good in language" carries her across an entire poetic world within this volume--as it afterwards carried her out of poetry altogether. This centennial volume presents the entire content of the 1980 edition, together with the author's retrospective Introduction and Appendices, corrected and reset. The poem-text reproduces, with the few errata corrected, the typography and design of the celebrated first edition of 1938, as supervised by the author herself. Included are the ten memorable full-page illustrations by John Aldridge.

Like Rilke's Letters to a Young Poet, this remarkable little book of wisdom and advice refreshes the mind and renews the spirit. Written in 1930 and published in Paris by the Hours Press in a limited edition of only two hundred, these letters were addressed to an eight-year-old girl, the "thoughtful and sensible" child of Nancy Nicholson and Robert Graves. But they were also meant for adults who might have such a child in their spirit. In simple, luminous language, Laura Riding explains the difference between learning and knowing; the value of thinking, of doing, and of not-showing-off; and how it is good to live straight, avoiding the hypocrisies and pretensions of "the muddle". Here is a literary treasure to be shared between generations. For many readers, it will also serve as an invaluable key to the thought of this astonishingly original writer.

Have you been hiding from God? Have you been hiding your gifts, your talents, and your anointing that God has on your life? Have you lived up to your full potential? Do you understand your purpose? Do you have the faith and courage to leave your comfort zone and step out into A World of Possibilities? Many of us often think about the things that are missing in our lives. We become easily discouraged and bogged down with busyness, boredom, mediocrity, and routine. Within these pages, Jackson points out that we are often the cause of our own lack of success. Our limited thinking and our self-doubting of what we can accomplish do not reflect the God-given power that resides within us. Jackson also states that we should have a "can do" attitude because God says that we can do it.
