Описание:

Brower had left San Francisco with the intention of making a short dash north on a whaling ship bound for the mythic Arctic Circle. Adventure had a way of following Charlie Brower. His initial landing turned into a fifty-year long ice-bound lifestyle. Once he stepped off the whaler and back onto dry, albeit frozen land, Brower took a job as master of the whaling station. But, though commerce brought him north, it was the people that helped keep him there for Charlie soon became fast friends with the native Inuit people. They taught him how to hunt seals on the ice, caribou on the tundra, and whales out on the sea. He learned their secrets, lived in their igloos, navigated in their kayaks and avoided being murdered in their feuds.


Plus the young adventurer observed the great dramas of the Far North play out. He saw the last of the sailing ships disappear over the horizon, and watched the first airplane fly in. For fifty-seven years, through ice storms and northern lights, Charlie Brower maintained both this lonely outpost and his claim as Uncle Sams most northerly citizen. A book to remember, Fifty Years Below Zero is illustrated with photos by the author.

Описание:

In the mid-nineteenth century, French colonial leaders in Algeria started southward into the Sahara, beginning a fifty-year period of violence. Lying in the shadow of the colonization of northern Algeria, which claimed the lives of over a million people, French empire in the Sahara sought power through physical force as it had elsewhere; yet violence in the Algerian Sahara followed a more complicated logic than the old argument that it was simply a way to get empire on the cheap.

"A Desert Named Peace "examines colonial violence through multiple stories and across several fields of research. It presents four cases: the military conquests of the French army in the oases and officers' predisposition to use extreme violence in colonial conflicts; a spontaneous nighttime attack made by Algerian pastoralists on a French village, as notable for its brutality as for its obscure causes; the violence of indigenous forms of slavery and the colonial accommodations that preserved it during the era of abolition; and the struggles of French Romantics whose debates about art and politics arrived from Paris with disastrous consequences.

Benjamin Claude Brower uses these different perspectives to reveal the unexpected causes of colonial violence, such as France's troubled revolutionary past and its influence on the military's institutional culture, the aesthetics of the sublime and its impact on colonial thinking, the ecological crises suffered by Saharan pastoralists under colonial rule, and the conflicting paths to authority inherent in Algerian Sufism. Directly engaging a controversial history, " A Desert Named Peace" offers an important backdrop to understanding the Algerian war for independence (1954-1962) and Algeria's ongoing internal war, begun in 1992, between the government and armed groups that claim to fight for an Islamist revolution.

Описание: A remarkable history with elements of both In the President's Secret Service and The Butler, The Residence offers an intimate account of the service staff of the White House, from the Kennedys to the Obamas. America's First Families are unknowable in many ways. No one has insight into their true character like the people who serve their meals and make their beds every day.

Full of stories and details by turns dramatic, humorous, and heartwarming, The Residence reveals daily life in the White House as it is really lived through the voices of the maids, butlers, cooks, florists, doormen, engineers, and others who tend to the needs of the President and First Family. These dedicated professionals maintain the six-floor mansion's 132 rooms, 35 bathrooms, 28 fireplaces, three elevators, and eight staircases, and prepare everything from hors d'oeuvres for intimate gatherings to meals served at elaborate state dinners. Over the course of the day, they gather in the lower level's basement kitchen to share stories, trade secrets, forge lifelong friendships, and sometimes even fall in love.

Combining incredible first-person anecdotes from extensive interviews with scores of White House staff members-many speaking for the first time-with archival research, Kate Andersen Brower tells their story. She reveals the intimacy between the First Family and the people who serve them, as well as tension that has shaken the staff over the decades. From the housekeeper and engineer who fell in love while serving President Reagan to Jackie Kennedy's private moment of grief with a beloved staffer after her husband's assassination to the tumultuous days surrounding President Nixon's resignation and President Clinton's impeachment battle, The Residence is full of surprising and moving details that illuminate day-to-day life at the White House.

Описание:

Why forgive? Why is it so important to release forgiveness in our lives? Can you live productively in the midst of a life tarnished with unforgiviness? When I was in that place of harboring hatred, anger, and malice in my heart it was an awful place to be in. It was like I was walking around in a fog, just going through life numb. I had no real regard for others feelings; I was just going through the motions.


It was a deep rooted, horrible affliction I was carrying which had me weighed down like a "ton of bricks." I did not realize how bound I was until I was free. God allowed me to understand I had to find a way to release the bondage I was carrying around, totally to Him. I had tried my way to no avail, now God was saying cast your cares on me, because I care for you. (See 1Peter 5:7).


My question to God out of a sincere heart was how? How do I move past the hurt, shame, and guilt? How can I forgive when the pain is so real? This book will cause you to deal with some feelings that have been suppressed for years. It is a one on one encounter with God. If you are honest freedom is within your grasp...Are you ready to be free?

Описание:

Lady Pearyn Treedale has been affianced to Cameron Spencer, the Duke of Partridgdon since she was eight years old. An archaic practice, but a situation she's come to enjoy. At her formal introduction to society she wasn't like the other debutantes. While they all searched for husbands, she made friends, had titillating conversations, and did whatever pleased her. Her fianc had the good grace to be absent most of her life. Then, the duke went on his world tour, and decided never to return to England, allowing Lady Pear a freedom most ladies never experience.

Now at five and twenty, Lady Pear wonders if perhaps she had it all wrong. She has friends, but no love, and no family. With Christmas around the corner, she receives gifts from a secret admirer, and she begins to believe that perhaps she should give this new gentleman her attention, because her duke certainly doesn't want her.

Together Paul and Evelyn rely on each other to survive the raging storm, villainous pirates, and a little bit of culture shock. Can they get past each other's differences and learn to trust each other and find love.

SEARCHING FOR MY ROGUE: Alys Dewitt's sister is getting married. Lucky for her she gets to be the maid of honor in a Regency themed wedding at an actual Ducal estate in England. While attending the wedding, she falls through a time hole and wakes up in 1815. Everything is strange, wondrous, not at all as she expected it to be.

James Kendall, the Duke of Weston returns from war to find an injured woman on his estate. She mumbles strange phrases and keeps calling him by another name. Thinking her a bit mad from her wounds, he takes her to the manor and calls for a doctor.

Will they give into their mutual desires, or will Alys find a way back to her own time?

SEDUCTIO OF MY RAKE: What's a man to do when he's attracted to a woman he can't have? Bradford Kendall, the Duke of Weston, is in that very predicament, when his brother's ex-wife shows up at his estate. Regina has always held an unnerving lure for him, and it's a nuisance to have to deal with it, and her.

Regina Dewitt wants to find out what happened to her sister. The best place to start her search is where she disappeared--Weston Manor. It's been a year, and clues will be scarce, but she's determined. She didn't count on how tempting the estate's resident duke would be...

As they begin the search together, the question remains: Can they fight their growing desire?

"Well, this is curious - I've only got papers that say to take one of you."

My two latest deaths stood in front of me.

"The other is supposed to keep on living. But here you both are."

Neither spoke to volunteer which was which.

"So, you both intend to keep on living, in spite of my orders to take one of you."

Silence signaled assent.

"You know that no one has ever cheated Death. Just because you have some spirit-guides looking out for you doesn't mean I won't end up with one - or even both of you."

I tapped a long, bony finger.

"Or maybe all four of you, just to make it completely fair. Because the more those two gals are working to keep you both alive, the more they are just making a bargain with me."

The two men standing there looked at each other.

Then turned to me and shrugged. At the same time, like they'd rehearsed it.

"Alrighty, then. The Game is on. Let's see who can beat Death and keep living. It's like always - all or nothing.

"And I never lose..."

Excerpt:

JUDE AND I GOT RUSHED in here again last night.

Because both our boys slipped under again. Flat-lining like before.

Rochelle kept telling us we two sisters were doing great at nursing them, that there was nothing anyone else could do any better. But now each of us had only one duty right now - and that was to save the guy we were "assigned" to.

We knew Rochelle had never seen anything like this before. Sure, she'd had people just give up and die on her. Especially when she couldn't get to them in time. Even after she'd brought them back to life once or twice or more.

But under the care of a Lazurai healer, body death is extremely rare.

Sure, they both had serious wounds when they came in. But those had all been patched. And there were only faint lines now where the jagged cuts had been repaired. In time, there wouldn't even be any scars to show. The surgery here was expert.

Yet this was the third time both of us had to come in and stop the slide.

And once we did, it left us both exhausted. Of course, it didn't help that we were either sleeping on hallway couches or a nearby wheeled gurney just to be on call.

At least we had plenty of towels around to sob into when it got to be too much...
