In Great Commanders, Davis turns his attention to military leaders from throughout history who stand out for their abilities - indeed, individuals who were destined for success or even born to command, challenging the prevailing view that movements, rather than individuals, have determined the progression of history. In short, this is unapologetically Great Man history. Each chapter opens with a brief biography that reveals or outlines the subject's character, followed by an overview of the methods of warfare of his time. A concise overview of each subject's military career leads to a more in-depth look at the battles that reveal precisely how each commander was able to achieve victory, often against great odds. Finally, Davis analyzes each individual's contribution to tactical warfare and offers an assessment of how his personality shaped his leadership style.

Between the Civil War and the early decades of the eighteenth century, English poets of the first rank devoted more of their time and creative energies to translating than they had ever done before or have ever done since. Paul Davis's Translation and the Poet's Life is the first study to range across the entirety of this golden age of poetic translation in England, taking as its organizing principle and object of inquiry the significances of translating itself as a distinctive mode of imaginative conduct. Composed of case studies of the five leading poet-translators of the age - John Denham, Henry Vaughan, Abraham Cowley, John Dryden, and Alexander Pope - it explores the part translation played in their lives as poets and thence in modelling 'the poet's life' during what was a period of transition between early-modern and modern constructions of it. The argumentative method of the book is metaphorical. Each chapter explores the impact on the theory and practice of the poet at issue of a metaphor or group of metaphors broadly current in contemporary translation discourse: in particular, figurations of the translator as an exile, as a child, as a code-breaker, and as a slave; and comparisons of translation to friendship, sexual congress, metamorphosis and trade. The majority of these metaphors were wholly or potentially pejorative: translation remained a controversial practice throughout this period, widely depreciated and stigmatized. Turning translator accordingly forced the five major poets considered in Translation and the Poet's Life to undertake strenuous efforts of self-inquiry and self-presentation; to find new answers to questions integral to their understandings of themselves and their standing in their culture: questions about vocation and career, fame and happiness, responsibility and freedom. Translation and the Poet's Life tells the stories of these personal and public remakings.

Boston, early 1970s. Amidst the yellow school buses being shaken and the Black children being stoned by angry white mobs in early 1970s Boston, we meet a white boy whose journey includes a mother struggling with her sanity and a father who meets his son's moments of immense pain and tentative pride with callousness. He seeks belonging in Boston's Black community, where he is baptized "Goatbeard" at a police stop. Carrying his new identity, he strives to fit in amongst his running buddies, the ladies at the "blue light"parties, playing dominoes in the kitchen, and amongst his young students' families. Along the way he develops a deep understanding of Boston's inequitable educational system, the "Life" on the streets, the strong arm of the racist authority system, and finally the warmth of found family.

The white hair. Those horn-rimmed glasses. And that voice-that unmistakable bass-baritone voice. George Beverly Shea has witnessed to more than 220 million people, in over 185 countries around the world, making him one of the most well-known gospel singers of all time. His decades-long partnership with Billy Graham took him to stages in every state and on every continent, but that doesn't mean Bev Shea should be labeled as a performer or an entertainer.No, he was God's instrument for bringing the hope of the gospel around the world.George Beverly Shea: Tell Me the Story is a detailed and fascinating look in the life and music of the man often called "America's Beloved Gospel Singer," an ordinary insurance worker God used to spread the gospel to every continent.

This book came because I wanted to be a notary public. I met the lady in charge. She asked me to raise my right hand and swear to uphold the Constitution. My answer was, "I do not know what it says." Her answer was what caused me to study more and then do much intensive studying. She said, "That is okay. We don't know it either. This is the courthouse. That is okay. We do not need to know it." But God, He made me go back to my Church office, find a copy of the United States Constitution, and study others. The Declaration of Independence, the Olivette Petition, and then our Constitution are documenting what men wrote, wanting a nation where men can serve God freely. "We hold these truths to be self-evident: that all men are created equal; that they are endowed by their Creator with certain inalienable that cannot be taken away or given away] rights."I began learning that Matthew 22:15-22 and Romans 13 had so many different meanings from other preachers. It was confusing."That whenever any form of government becomes destructive to these ends it is the right of the people to alter we try that at our polls] or to abolish it." We the people have the right under God and government to abolish bad government. Exercise it.You will learn the twenty-five reasons they gave for their freedom from tyranny. Today you will see that eleven of those reasons of separations are in our America today. "To know wisdom and instruction; to perceive the words of understanding; A wise man will hear, and will increase learning; and a man of understand shall attain unto wise counsels" (Prov. 1:2, 5).
