*Includes pictures *Includes accounts of mining by soldiers on both sides *Includes online resources and a bibliography for further reading "It was a pretty gloomy business. We started sinking this shaft and it filled with water, so we pumped it out with hand pumps-lift and force. We got down about 10 feet or so. It was heartbreaking-I hated it. But I had to keep my men going. The Boche [Germans] saved us. We were making a lot of noise with spiling [timbering the tunnels]. The Boche opposite us were Saxons, rather friendly, and they put up a notice on a blackboard 'No good your mining. We've tried. It can't be done.' The notice was in English. I reported this to my OC and it went up to HQ and they stopped the mine." - Major General F. Gordon Hyland World War I, also known in its time as the "Great War" or the "War to End all Wars", was an unprecedented holocaust in terms of its sheer scale. Fought by men who hailed from all corners of the globe, it saw millions of soldiers do battle in brutal assaults of attrition which dragged on for months with little to no respite. Tens of millions of artillery shells and untold hundreds of millions of rifle and machine gun bullets were fired in a conflict that demonstrated man's capacity to kill each other on a heretofore unprecedented scale, and as always, such a war brought about technological innovation at a rate that made the boom of the Industrial Revolution seem stagnant. World War I was the first truly industrial war, and it created a paradigm which reached its zenith with World War II and towards which virtually all equipment, innovation and training were dedicated throughout the Cold War and the remainder of the 20th century. To this day, modern warfare remains synonymous with tanks and mass infantry battles, although a confrontation of this nature has not occurred (except briefly during Operation Desert Storm) since World War II. The enduring image of World War I is of men stuck in muddy trenches, and of vast armies deadlocked in a fight neither could win. It was a war of barbed wire, poison gas, and horrific losses as officers led their troops on mass charges across No Man's Land and into a hail of bullets. While these impressions are all too true, they hide the fact that trench warfare was dynamic and constantly evolving throughout the war as all armies struggled to find a way to break through the opposing lines. Most books and documentaries about the war focus on the carnage of the trenches, depicting the ceaseless bombardment and sniping, and the assaults and counterattacks that took millions of lives. This was the experience of most frontline soldiers during that great conflict, but it was not the only experience. There was another war going on beneath the trenches, a war of tunnels and mines fought by men who didn't see sunlight for days at a time and who lived in constant fear of cave-ins and enemy detection. These men, who had mostly been miners in civilian life, lived a twilight existence, working long hours in silence and near darkness while great battles raged overhead. They suffered from fatigue, stress, and the knowledge that they could be killed at any time by an unseen enemy. Despite this, they persevered, and the mines they laid under enemy trench systems turned the tide of at least one major battle. Underground Warfare in World War I: The History and Legacy of the Fighting Beneath and Between the Trenches examines one of the most forgotten aspects of the fighting on the ground during the Great War. Along with pictures of important people, places, and events, you will learn about World War I's underground warfare like never before.

This chilling anthology recounts what happens to ordinary people when they are suddenly faced with things they can't explain rationally. While some are what you might expect from decades of horror stories, others take "the road less traveled." Melissa Nelson is faced with "The Scarecrow of Bachmieir Farm", and she begins to doubt her sanity as she becomes certain it is moving when no one is looking. Teenagers discover "She Is Not Dead, But Sleepeth" when they dabble with something they think is only a party game. Baron Rokosky has always known "The Blood Is the Life", but he uncovers new meaning to that phrase when intruders enter his castle -- and disappear. Atheist Colton Bremerton is forced to ask for help from the Christians he despises and learns "The Cost of an Exorcism" might be more than he is willing to pay. Alesio DeLuca responds to his sister-in-law's urgent call for help and belatedly realizes he might not be a match for "That Which Seethes Within." Faith healers Dakota and Emily Peterson learn how easily the "The Road to Hell" is traveled. Aging Patience Bellamy finds "The Cuckoo" and makes a decision that has far reaching and long term consequences she could never have imagined. And finally, Tyemon meets "The Antrix and the Aeoli", two mythological beings he discovers are all too real.Whatever the tale, you are certain to be surprised.These novellas, novelettes, and short stories can be purchased separately. "The Blood Is the Life" has also been collected in the anthology, "A Little Bit of Everything."

Surfboard shaper, Medford Haley arrives in California to do a three-hundred board shaping contract only to find that Clark Foam has shut down and there are no blanks. With three months to kill on his ticket, a rent a wreck burning dollar-bills at the curb, he looks up his long lost bud, legendary surfer/shaper/ballplayer, John 'Bubba' Bradbury in Venice Beach, home to musicians, artists, body builders and any number of odd-bod movie extras. A place where 'freaks' or outsiders just kind of blend in. Bubba, who is in the process of putting together a momentous baseball game, 'A battle of the titans'; asks Medford whose Gramps was a pro ballplayer to stick around and keep him company because the steroids he takes for his pitching elbow causes severe anxiety and panic attacks. Having played a lot of ball with Bubba, Medford agrees to help in the training and recruitment program for the big game. John 'Bubba' Bradbury's dream of pitching one last game against the best of all time with a team consisting exclusively of dis-qualified mavericks, misfits and downright drug-crazed outlaws, fruit-loop eccentrics with oddball nicknames and mental disorders still looking for names and crippling superstitions to challenge Leavenworth Federal Prison Warden's pet team of caged, iron-pumping one-eyed, mutants fuelled by rage. Medford takes one look and mutters reflectively, 'Business as usual.' Enter Aglakti 'Aggie' Anumiaq, an Inuit boy, fresh out of Leavenworth Federal Penitentiary and former member of their mutant 'Lifers' baseball team, here to try out for Bubba's team of freaks. Aggie: whose name in the Inuit language literally means: One who makes words stand or 'Songmaker' had served five-years for assaulting federal officers. He believes: that like his ancestors, he must first dream to manifest his future. Happy to re-visit the happy days of his baseball playing youth, Medford takes on the position of manager to help Bubba with his pet projects, remodelling his study at 'Dunrunnin', his house in Venice Beach and moulding dream team of superstar social misfits. Medford will soon remember Bubba's perfectionist side that fuels his severe anxiety affliction and superstitious tendencies. While Aggie revels in the down-souther's life in Venice, he still dreams of his arctic home in Seward Alaska. Then one day, quite by chance he bumps into a childhood girlfriend on the beach who is studying dance in Los Angeles. They learn to surf together and he falls in love. Things go well for the baseball team until some 'gang' members took exception to the team practicing on their turf, attacking Bubba's immaculate Nomad with clubs, shooting and killing two team members in the process. Things continue to deteriorate when Pee Wee, Bubba's best friend and team's dwarf-catcher begins hoeing a Russian Mafia Boss's wife's row, drawing a line in the sand that will bring the Russian Mafia into violent conflict with the Mexican Mafia that will culminate in a deadly turf war in the parking lot of the Santa Barbara City College during 'The Battle of Titans' baseball game at the stadium there. Aggie, who'd been dreaming constantly of Buniq Late Hiin his Inuit childhood sweetheart finally dreams of Bubba's team of freaks winning 'The battle of the titans'. After the game Aggie is offered a position on the San Francisco Giants but changes his mind when he dreams of coming home to Alaska: To Buniq, his father and his own brood of children. It's the story of a young Inuit man's experience of modern dystopia.

The moment everything changed didn't happen in that cliché rockets-red-glare kind of way, it happened in the form of a waking nightmare. I caught my husband, my high-school sweetheart, the father of my children, balls deep in a sordid affair.That was when I gave up on men and love. I didn't count on the NHL's golden boy, the beautiful, arrogant Cooper Stone turning my life and my hockey rink upside down.My kids are why I wake up in the morning.Hockey is what Cooper breathes for.We're from different worlds and places in our lives but when our hearts collided something so wrong and different turned into something so right.

Swami Abhishiktananda (Henri Le Saux, 1910-1973) was one of the most fascinating spiritual figures of the 20th century and a bridge-builder between East and West. His encounter with Indian spirituality over a period of twenty-five years deepened and enriched his Christian faith beyond measure. The fruits of this profound spiritual experience are to be found in this treasured book Prayer. The book was, as the author wrote, "written beside the Ganges in very close contact with the spiritual experience of the Upanishads .... In [it] there is nothing technical. It seeks rather to be a travelling companion on the road that leads within." "A simple and practical handbook resplendent with the gems of Christian and Hindu wisdom, Prayer has rightly been acclaimed a classic and can be compared to similar works authored by contemporary Christian mystics who have explored contemplative prayer through Eastern and Western Spirituality, namely: Anthony de Mello, Hugo Enomiya-Lassalle, Bede Griffiths, William Johnston, Thomas Keating, John Main, Thomas Merton, Vincent Shigeto Oshida, Ama Samy, David Steindl-Rast, Vandana Mataji and many more pioneers in interreligious spiritual understanding." -from the Editor's Note

We are born into an unequal world of wondrous dangers and opportunities. Where did we come from? To which destination might we one day depart? Why this particular bed at just this time? Male or female, poor or rich, talented or challenged? The list grows as our vision expands. Why this country, or even this planet? Why does life exist? What is the relationship of mortal man to an overwhelming Cosmos? Yet even with all our science, are the answers any nearer? The reply is a guarded yes regarding HOW. We now appreciate the realities of matter, the mechanisms of life, and the evolution of the Cosmos. But the question of WHY still remains tantalizingly resistant to analytic study. Most scientists concede that the Universe displays order, progression and intricate balance as it unfolds. But does it embody an overriding objective? An egg contains the complete blueprint for the individual. This forces seemingly mindless chemicals to combine and intertwine so that a new life can finally emerge, be it a man or a mouse. The Universe pursues its own blueprint, and one day......? But important as religion, science and philosophy may be, they are only aspects of life, not life itself. Life is for living. Humour, joy, comradeship, sadness and the challenge of adversity are the ingredients of all lives, but the proportions vary. A baby's smile, calm after the storm, the taste of a newly plucked apple, a kind act - these are the nectar of existence. And then the footlights again grow dim. This collection of poems therefore reflects the myriad thoughts, experiences and revelations that this particular traveller has encountered on the path. Are they simply poetry, one man's chronicles, anecdotal rambles, disguised preaching or a coherent theology - each individual must decide. Yet if they prove interesting and entertaining, the writer's task has been worthwhile. If they strike a chord, enjoy the resonance. And if the path is briefly illuminated, stride briskly on.

When Confucius spoke, people listened, and they still listen today. The wisdom of this Chinese philosopher, teacher, politician, and writer still rings as true today as it did over 2,000 years ago. Who was the legend who has become revered as a sage throughout the ages? To put it shortly, he was a simple man. Confucius was born into poverty, but at an early age he came to value education, integrity, and moral behavior. He developed the knowledge to become a teacher by his early 30s. He also developed an ethical code that valued, above all else, personal integrity, ethical behavior, ritual propriety, and compassion. Throughout his brief political career and his long journey afterward, he sought to spread his philosophy in the hopes that it would be adopted as political policy. While his political goals were not realized in his lifetime, his philosophy would live long after he died. This book tells the story of the life of the world-renowned philosopher and scholar, and it describes the tenets of his philosophy in a succinct manner which is packed with information.

At nineteen, Otho was living the only life he had ever known or dreamed of knowing - being a farmer. But then a heartbreaking tragedy shook his idyllic world. As he angrily lashed out at God in the middle of a cow pasture early one morning in 1952, he heard eight little words that forever changed his outlook and the course of his life.Eight Little Words is the story of God taking a young man from a Mennonite farming community in Maryland to a remote town in Nepal and later to other locations of service. Through joining Mennonite Central Committee's Pax Service after WWII, Otho was first stationed in Germany to help rebuild after the war and then in Tansen, Nepal, to help build a new hospital in a country newly opened to the Western world.Ultimately, this book is an account of God's faithfulness as He unfolds His purpose and plan in the life of a man fully committed to Him.
