Shipwrecked on the remote volcanic island of Agrihan, and with one of them severely injured, Lou Benson and Jim and Staci Kirk have to find their way to civilisation. Joined by orphan Ailsa Cudby, who has been living with a local village since her parents died, they set off past the volcano in search of an abandoned U.S. Air Force base. With time running out to get medical attention, the teens once again face danger in order to save one of their own. Will they find help in time?
In 1812, less than forty years after breaking from Britain, the United States found itself in another war with its former colonial master. Now, during the two hundredth anniversary of the War of 1812 comes Neither Victor nor Vanquished, William Weber’s reappraisal of this critical but frequently misunderstood conflict. In the first half of the book, Weber reexamines the war’s military aspects, highlighting the asymmetric nature of the conflict as the world’s foremost naval power with a credible professional army stood against an idealist republic with commercial and agricultural aspirations but without an adequate navy and army. Weber also attempts to recalibrate popular conceptions of the U.S. forces’ generally poor performance during “Mr. Madison’s War,” and frames the War of 1812 in the context of both the Jeffersonian Revolution that preceded the war and the accelerated territorial expansion and consolidation of the United States that eventually led to the American Civil War. The book’s thought-provoking second half presents alternative outcomes for the War of 1812, reminding us that history is made, not predetermined. Various scenarios arise from differences in two key factors-the quality of generalship in both armies and the direction of the Napoleonic Wars, which Britain was simultaneously fighting. Weber imagines a worst case scenario for the young republic, an ending worse than a simple military defeat. Indeed, history might have provided a different answer to Francis Scott Key’s central question, “O, say does that star-spangled banner yet wave / O’er the land of the free and the home of the brave?” A final what-if explores a nineteenth-century America that chooses to avoid the War of 1812 and, consequently, the rise of Andrew Jackson.

Stories of God at work in the 21st Century feel as if they come straight from the book of Acts. Gripping accounts showcase daring, modern day heroes of the faith risking all to follow Jesus in the face of radical ISIS terrorism, kidnappings, bombs, secret police, and imprisonment. The book is filled with heartwarming eyewitness accounts of miracles of God at work in the midst of the darkest, most dangerous of circumstances. From the epicenter of Middle Eastern conflict, refugee stories depict Jesus showing up to care about those who have lost everything. He is reaching out to Muslims, and they are responding in unprecedented numbers. These first-hand accounts include a biography of the courageous, resilient Syrian pastor whose life is fraught with danger, who lives with his ear to the heartbeat of God, and for whom miracles are more common than the falling barrel bombs. Eyewitness accounts uplift and encourage, strengthening the reader's faith that God will be present in their own challenging circumstances. This is a hope-filled story of triumph on the frontlines of a fierce battle.

"Anthony Caleshu's Victor is a wild ride, an arctic adventure, a spirited quest narrative, a mad love poem to the imagination in all its unstrung wild joys. The exuberance of address in this poem is contagious, at once zany and intimate, descriptive and lyric, it's pedal to the metal and won't let up. Caleshu is an extremely gifted and accomplished poet and a true romantic to boot." -Peter Gizzi

By the fourth 56-day period of Trump's Administration, the "DUMP TRUMP" movement was in full force; North Korea was threatening to Nuke mainland America and they were saying Trump wanted to initiate a nuclear holocaust - mostly because he reminded Kim Jong Un that, were he to Nuke America, it would be an act of war which would see the USA erase North Korea from existence; in the old Confederate States, Left-wing radicals were confronting neo-Nazis who objected to the removal of Confederate statues.But, nobody mentioned that, if ordered by the Court, slavery was still legal, was still practiced and had been since 9 December 1865. We can play Trump as PT Barnum, but those promoting Mike Pence for the POTUS position would prefer to refer to Trump as the new Hitler. He is reputed to have studied Adolf Hitler's speeches, and the AntiFa rant a lot about alleged connections, but, in they attacks of the Elites they also follow the antisemitic pattern Hitler laid out as the core talking point of his propaganda. In this book, the author completes his analysis of the Trump Administration development. Many of the tactics used by Trump are typical of those who were raised in Brooklyn and Queens and grew up in the NY Real Estate Industry. When Donald Trump was twenty-eight and made his move from The Boroughs into The City, the author was already Director of Real Estate for one of New York City's most politically connected Law Firms, and overseeing expansive global ownership interests - so it is that he can look at Trump's style with the eye of an insider who was raised in a world of business and politics to see things which the media has missed but are slowly being revealed. What some see as "nepotism", and the advantages derived from "exploiting parental connections", are, in the real world, the nature of how things get accomplished. In a classic style of "New York nepotism" trust is granted to those you trained to be better than you -- your children.
