Sinopse

Birth of Korea explores the crucial period of the Three Kingdoms – Goguryeo, Baekje, and Silla – and their impact on shaping Korean civilization. It examines how these kingdoms, despite their rivalries and conflicts, contributed to the formation of a distinct Korean identity. The book highlights the innovative military strategies and technologies employed during their constant struggles for dominance, demonstrating how military history influenced state formation. It also delves into the complex diplomatic relations between the kingdoms and their interactions with China and Japan, showcasing the importance of cultural exchange in East Asian History. The book uniquely balances the narrative by examining the political systems, social hierarchies, and cultural practices of each kingdom individually, moving beyond the traditional focus on Silla's eventual triumph. By drawing on archaeological findings and ancient texts, Birth of Korea reconstructs aspects of daily life and military technology, offering a comprehensive view of this era. The book progresses chronologically, beginning with the tribal confederations before the Three Kingdoms and culminating in an analysis of their diplomatic engagements.

    Medal of Honor recipient Jack H. Lucas’s classic memoir of his heroics at the Battle of Iwo Jima—with a foreword by Bob Dole and reissued to coincide with the 75th anniversary of the battle in 2020. 
     
    On February 20, 1945, the second day of the assault on Iwo Jima—one of the bloodiest battles of the Pacific theater in World War II—Private Jack Lucas, who was only seventeen, and three other Marines engaged in a close-proximity firefight with Japanese soldiers. When two enemy grenades landed in their trench, Lucas jumped on one and pulled the other under his body to save the lives of his comrades. Lucas was blown into the air as his body was torn apart by 250 entrance wounds. He was so severely wounded that his team left him for dead. Miraculously, he survived. 
    While on the hospital ship Samaritan, his spirit soared to see the American flag flying atop Mount Suribachi—the same flag immortalized in Joe Rosenthal’s iconic photograph, Raising the Flag on Iwo Jima. Lucas endured twenty-one grueling surgeries and carried 200 pieces of shrapnel in his body for the rest of his life. Awarded the Medal of Honor, he became the youngest Marine in U.S. history—and the youngest of all World War II servicemen—to receive the honor. 
    Indestructible tells the remarkable story of an extraordinary American possessed with a fierce determination to serve his country.

    Over forty million people a year travel to Las Vegas, more than to Mecca. It is a global celebrity, an improbable oasis, a place offering bank-breaking fortunes and instant gratification, 24/7, with no moral debits.
    Award-winning writer Timothy O'Grady lived in Vegas for two years. He finally began to understand it when he talked to people who had grown up there, the children of the card dealers and cocktail shakers, the jugglers and the dancers – young people who had borne witness to this strange city all their lives. One had her student loans and credit card limits stolen by her father. Another fled a sequence of exploiters until she found herself living in the storm drains under the casinos. There was the boy whose father entered him into a drinking contest when he was eight, the casino owner's son, the erudite contortionist turned stripper. Each told their own tale.
    In Children of Las Vegas, O'Grady renews his partnership with photographer Steve Pyke. Through short essays, Pyke's portraits and ten witness testimonies, he pierces the city's glittering façade to reveal the darker reality that lies beneath.
