Описание: An unrivalled account of the American Civil War from the Confederate perspective. One of the most compelling personal narratives of the Civil War, "Mary Chesnut's Diary" was written between 1861 and 1865. As the daughter of a wealthy plantation owner and the wife of an aide to the Confederate President, Jefferson Davis, Chesnut was well acquainted with the Confederacy's prominent players and-from the very first shots in Charleston, South Carolina-diligently recorded her impressions of the conflict's most significant moments. One of the most frequently cited memoirs of the war, "Mary Chesnut's Diary" captures the urgency and nuance of the period in an epic rich with commentary on race, status, and power within a nation divided.

Just walk into any room of people and you'll find immeasurablepain and wounds. On the outside we wear our camouflage well, but on the inside, deep withinour own souls, we realize life is conflict. It is traceable to a single source: Satan, the adversaryof our souls. Written by two US Army Green Berets, The Warrior's Soul provides a guide for how to apply thetechniques of a true warrior in the spiritual realm by emphasizing five core elements:
A cause greater than self--why we fight
A settled memory--the link between history and current circumstances
A personal intensity--eager for challenges and undistracted by personal issues
An unflagging optimism--an absolute commitment to never surrender
A deep camaraderie--a personal commitment to fellow warriors
True warriors are willing to stand when others bow. With this first-rate preparation for spiritualbattle you can stand strong and see victory.

Описание: This is a literary work of art about one person/artist's journey in creating a better person in oneself, with the hopes that it will inspire others to do the same.Transformation must first start in the mind for it to shine on the outside. " Creating a better self is not about getting to one place in your life and staying there. It's about continuous evolution of the self; forever growing to be a better human being. With that being said, I am still a work in progress." - Floyd Boykin Jr.
