Эта книга русскоязычного журналиста Алексея Орлова представляет собой сборник очерков о Гражданской войне (1861-1865). Взгляды автора на некоторые аспекты войны - самой кровопролитной в истории Америки - в какой-то степени противоречивы. Это касается и причин, вызвавших войну, и действий генералов Шермана и Форреста, и последовавшего за войной периода Реконструкции, и многого другого. Но, как сказал американский писатель с корейскими корнями Вьет Тхань Нгуен, Все войны ведутся дважды. Первый раз на полях сражения, второй раз в памяти. Следует дополнить и в книгах по истории войн.

This book should be in the hands of everyone in a prison cell. It reveals a challenging but clear course for overcoming the obstacles that stand between prisoners and their freedom. For those behind bars, one goal outshines all others: GETTING OUT! After being released, that goal then shifts to STAYING OUT! This book will help prisoners do both. It has been masterfully constructed into five parts that will help prisoners maximize focus while they strive to accomplish whichever goal is at hand. Part One: Get Out! Preparing For Board Hearings breaks down the process step by step and provides prisoners with much-needed tips and information that will increase their odds of being granted parole. Part Two: Understanding Recidivism explains the forces that make recidivist prisoners repeat the same cycle over and over - they themselves are often baffled at their situation. This part provides information, understanding, and insights that they need to uproot their compulsive-criminal mentality, and break the recidivist cycle. Part Three: The Change Process provides prisoners with proven strategies to a positive life change. These strategies cover multiple topics that may have affected their lives, such as anger, substance abuse, illegal activity, and gang involvement. Part Four: Stay Out! Preparing for Release covers obvious survival issues like money, employment, housing, and transportation, as well as not so obvious issues, like how to deal with the mental, emotional, and social changes that prisoners face upon release. Part Five: Social Security and Other Benefits covers benefits that are available.

A story of discovery, as a son reconstructs the life of a father he never truly knew in life. Hanus Neumann enjoys an idyllic childhood in western Czechoslovakia, until 1939 when the Nazi occupation shatters his family and, at age 18, he somehow manages an unlikely escape to America, where he begins a new life as Jack Neuman. What follows is an eventful life of unexpected turns and adventure. He returns to Europe, first to fight WWII with US Army Intelligence as one of the celebrated Ritchie Boys; and later as one of the first American private citizens to go behind the Iron Curtain. His life work then unfolds as a trailblazer in the emerging international travel business. Jack's life ends tragically in his early 50s, without fully revealing his life story to those who knew and loved him. Now, almost a half century later that story is brought to life, revealed through an extensive collection of documents and photos that he inexplicably left behind.

"The fae live in harmony of light and dark, life and death, sun and moon. Their magic is separated through the balance of the universe, chosen at random by the gods, creating two races of fae. The Seelie, children of the sun. The Unseelie, children of the moon. The differences between the two races created a divide between the people, only ever mixing when the sun and moon are at equal, and every solar eclipse, the young fae are sorted by whatever magic runs through their veins. Gold, Seelie. Black, Unseelie. Marie, a half-fae, was born in The Seelie Territory. Her skin shimmers gold and the ends of her hair are bleached from too much time spent under the sun. Everything about her screams seelie but on the day of the sorting ceremony, Marie finds out her blood does not run gold but black. Now she must go to The Unseelie Territory and study magic for the next four years, with the hopes that she can get good enough grades to find a job under The Seelie King and return to her family. Her plan is full proof, that is until she meets The Unseelie Prince. His grumpy persona and midnight eyes stir something inside her that she hasn't ever felt before. His presence alone threatens to rip every fiber of her being and reduce her to rubble. Marie tries to ignore his pull, but she finds herself drowning in him, until she doesn't have any air left to breathe. Blood So Black is a tragic story about fated mates destined to create chaos, not only towards each other but the entirety of fae. This book is the first in a trilogy and ends with a cliffhanger. The themes within this book are Dark and may not be suitable for all readers.

LIDERAZGO DE REINO VS. LIDERAZGO DE BRONCEEl liderazgo es un asunto de vocación, preparación, esfuerzo y valentía. Debemos hacer un contraste entre lo que por ahí se escucha y lo que Jesús enseña. Por otra parte, no en todos los casos, actualmente las enseñanzas con escudos de bronce se han puesto de moda tergiversando el mensaje del Reino a la conveniencia de cada quien. Sin embargo, el verdadero estilo de vida de los hombres y mujeres de Reino consiste en desarrollar una identidad conforme al corazón de Dios siendo un liderazgo vanguardista. Nuestro gran reto es perseverar en la Verdad, servir a las familias y formar generaciones de acuerdo a lo que Dios estableció para el orden familiar. Como iglesia, somos lo que Dios dice que somos: ... Martillo me sois, y armas de guerra; y por medio de ti quebrantaré naciones, y por medio de ti destruiré reinos. Por tu medio quebrantaré caballos y a sus jinetes, y por medio de ti quebrantaré carros y a los que en ellos suben. Asimismo, por tu medio quebrantaré hombres y mujeres, y por medio de ti quebrantaré viejos y jóvenes, y por tu medio quebrantaré jóvenes y vírgenes. También quebrantaré por medio de ti al pastor y a su rebaño; quebrantaré por tu medio a labradores y a sus yuntas; a jefes y a príncipes quebrantaré por medio de ti..., (Jeremías 51:20-23).

Volúpia é um diálogo intimista entre Nicinha e Sabrina. O tom Marinho atravessa os tempos nesse romance, apresentando com delicadeza a história de Giovanna, uma menina obrigada a se casar com um homem bem mais velho, para quitar uma dívida de seu pai, sem saber que o casamento a jogaria no oceano aterrorizante das violências sexual, física e verbal. Em uma obra de conteúdo sensível, volúpia, além de um texto estético de grande valor, um documento histórico e filosófico que nos faz refletir sobre as condições da mulher em sociedade.A autora aborda violências violentas, agressões físicas repetidas, um filho após outro, abandonos, decepções, cárcere privado e solidão constante. Todos esses fatos narrados, acompanhados e refletidos de muito perto pela amizade fiel da narradora Nicinha à neta de Giovanna, Sabrina representa o perfil moderno do inconformismo relacionado às desigualdades contra a mulher. Esse caminhar de Giovanna pelo calvário de sua vida, os prazeres que fizeram, os descaminhos, as perdas sofridas, todas essas acontecências, são retratos atravessados pelo tempo e vividos por milhares de Giovannas, testemunhadas por outras tantas Nicinhas invisíveis que precisam denunciar as vulnerabilidades e os abusos sofridos. Mas muitas vezes denunciar a quem?>Sandra Maia-VasconcelosLiguísta, narratologista e poetisa

Viajei? Sim! Passei um mês da minha vida passeando sozinho. Fui à Europa, voltei e os fatos já ficaram para trás... A rotina voltou ao estado normal de uma forma imensamente rápida, não permitindo tempo para assimilar tudo o que aconteceu. Anos já se passaram e muitos ainda me questionam: como você fez? Por onde você passou? O que você achou?Por essa razão, decidi ouvir a sugestão de algumas pessoas e escrever tudo - ou quase - que ocorreu durante esse período com o objetivo de registrar as respostas para essas e outras questões.Desejo que você, leitor ou leitora, se inspire com as palavras e possa também realizar uma inesquecível e encantadora viagem em busca de desbravar o velho continente.
