  The liberation of Western Europe in the Second World War remains one of the most significant military campaigns in history. The Allied push from Normandy to the Rhine marked the beginning of the end for Nazi Germany, culminating in its eventual surrender in May 1945. However, the path to victory was neither smooth nor inevitable. It was a campaign marked by intense fighting, strategic challenges, and the determination of soldiers from across the globe. 
    
  Following the D-Day landings on June 6, 1944, the Allies sought to free France from German occupation and drive Nazi forces back toward Germany. The operation, which involved an unprecedented amphibious invasion, was a turning point in the war. The success of the landings, despite the heavy losses, opened a second front in Europe, forcing Hitler to divert critical resources away from the Eastern Front, where the Soviet Union was steadily advancing. Yet, the Allies’ victory was not guaranteed, as German forces, though weakening, still posed formidable resistance. 
    
  The Battle of Normandy, with its brutal fighting in the hedgerows and small villages, proved to be just the beginning. The Allies encountered fierce opposition as they pushed eastward through France. While the liberation of Paris in August 1944 was a symbol of hope, it came with its own set of challenges. The need to secure vital supply lines, adapt to changing battle conditions, and coordinate across multiple national forces created both logistical and strategic headaches.

  While most of Gibran's early writings were in Arabic, most of his work published after 1918 was in English. His first book for the publishing company Alfred A. Knopf, in 1918, was "The Madman," a slim volume of aphorisms and parables written in biblical cadence somewhere between poetry and prose. Gibran is considered to be the third most widely read poet in history, behind Shakespeare and Lao-Tzu.

  Before the Pilgrims landed at Cape Cod, what was happening in North America? Who was there? What civilizations rose and fell? For years, the answers to these questions have been shrouded in mystery.
   
  At the time of European contact, a diverse world of Native peoples thrived across the continent. What was their backstory? Who were the ancestors of the Sioux? Where did the Navajo come from? What about the Apache, the Comanche, the Cherokee?
   
  They Had Names is the result of a multi-year deep dive into genetics, indigenous histories, archaeology, and linguistics—an ambitious quest to uncover answers to these questions.
   
  In this book, you will explore pre-Columbian links between civilizations of the Old World and civilizations of the New. You’ll read about unexpected connections between Mexico and tribes north of the Rio Grande. You’ll also discover that ancient ruins from North American civilizations still exist, that these ruins tell dramatic stories, and that they can still be visited today.
   
  On this continent, peoples and kingdoms rose and fell, great battles were fought, heroes were enshrined—heroes whose names have been preserved.
