  The only state born as a result of the Civil War, West Virginia was the most divided state in the nation. About forty thousand of its residents served in the combatant forces about twenty thousand on each side. 
   
   
   
  The Mountain State also saw its fair share of battles, skirmishes, raids, and guerrilla warfare, with places like Harpers Ferry, Philippi, and Rich Mountain becoming household names in 1861. When the Commonwealth of Virginia seceded from the Union on April 17, 1861, leaders primarily from the northwestern region of the state began the political process that eventually led to the creation of West Virginia on June 20, 1863. Renowned Civil War historian Mark A. Snell has written the first thorough history of these West Virginians and their civil war in more than fifty years.

  One of the very first books to offer feminist insights and critiques of business to the practicing manager, business student, and non-academic, this provocative volume offers a fresh, positive vision that makes feminist thought accessible and relevant. Feminism: A Key Idea for Business and Society boldly challenges assumptions about both feminism and business. This provocative book:-- Offers a primer on feminism for business and explains feminist interventions including adding women's voices, pushing for equality, and practicing feminist values to make businesses more successful and more just. -- Analyzes the obstacles organizations and individuals face in their efforts to address gender inequality. -- Illustrates how feminist interventions have changed the terms of business conversations around topics such as defining work, centering the economy around care, how jobs work and wages are gendered, violence in the workplace, horizontal and peer-to-peer organizational structures that don't depend on dominance, enlightened leadership models, and power. Feminism has already had a profound impact on business, with many of its key tenets incorporated into business thinking.  With the insights revealed in this book, we can see how applying feminist perspectives to business can liberate our understanding of work and management.

  This volume traces how a small frontier beylik became a world empire. It follows the Ottomans from Osman and Orhan through Mehmed II and Süleyman I, explaining conquests in the Balkans, the fall of Constantinople in 1453, the building of Istanbul, and the creation of powerful institutions like the Janissaries, the timar system, and the millet framework. Alongside battles and treaties, it opens the doors of mosques, courts, workshops, and homes, showing how law, faith, art, and war worked together—right up to the first clear signs of strain around 1606.

  Erwin Rommel and the Afrika...

  One of his biographers called him “a complex man: a born leader, a brilliant soldier, a devoted husband, a proud father; intelligent, instinctive, brave, compassionate, vain, egotistical, and arrogant.” As that description suggests, every account of Erwin Rommel’s life must address what appears to be its inherent contradictions. Fittingly, and in the same vein, he remains one of the best remembered generals of World War II and history at large, despite the fact he was on the losing side, and he was defeated at the most famous battle of his career, the decisive Battle of El Alamein. 
  With the Axis forces trying to push through Egypt towards the Suez Canal and the British Mandate of Palestine, American forces landed to their west in North Africa, which ultimately compelled Rommel to try to break through before the Allies could build up and overwhelm them with superior numbers. Given that the combined Allied forces under Bernard Montgomery already had an advantage in manpower, Montgomery also wanted to be aggressive, and the fighting would start in late October 1942 with an Allied attack. At Alamein, 195,000 troops in 11 divisions faced off against 50,000 Germans (four divisions) and 54,000 Italians (eight divisions), where they were able to use their superior numbers and weapons to defeat the Axis troops. Over the next few weeks, the Allies made steady progress and forced Rommel to conduct a fighting retreat to safety until his army linked up with another Axis army in Tunisia, but the fighting at the end of 1942 inevitably compelled all Axis forces to quit the theater, the first time since the beginning of the war that Africa was safe for the Allies. 
  After leaving North Africa, Rommel spent much of the later part of the war strengthening German defenses across the Atlantic in anticipation of an amphibious Allied landing, which would come in June 1944.

  In Store Bought Baby, Laura Melane unravels the complex emotions of growing up adopted, feeling different, and battling a deep sense of insecurity. Raised alongside her parents’ biological daughter in a well-meaning but dysfunctional family, Laura always felt like something was missing. As she grappled with codependency, low self-esteem, and an unhealthy desire to please others, she found herself trapped by the “good girl” conditioning too many women find themselves unable to escape.  
  With raw honesty and vulnerability, Laura chronicles her journey from questioning her worth to reclaiming her identity and becoming the hero of her own story. Along the way, she tackles the emotional void left behind by adoption, sheds the toxic beliefs that shaped her, and shares the hard-won lessons that finally led her to self-acceptance and love.  
  This memoir is a heartfelt exploration of personal growth, resilience, and the courage to break free from expectations and relationships that don’t serve us. For anyone feeling lost or trapped in someone else’s story, Store Bought Baby is an inspiring reminder that we all have the power to choose ourselves and create the life we deserve.
