Summary

The Eagle and the ShadowA Novel by Miguel Santiago
 
Rome casts a long shadow. Not all who march beneath it return unchanged.
 
Centurion Publius Sertorius has survived more campaigns than he can count, but nothing prepares him for the brutality—and the moral cost—of Caesar’s war in Gaul. In the mud, forests, and blood-soaked rivers of the frontier, he leads men into battles history will remember… and through choices it will never record.
 
Alongside him, Marcus—a young recruit confronting his first taste of war—and Quintus—a Gallic-born Roman torn between two worlds—must face not only the enemy in front of them, but the darker battles within.
 
From the icy Alps to the thunder of Germanic drums along the Rhine, The Eagle and the Shadow is a sweeping, visceral journey into the heart of conquest, loyalty, and loss.
 
Not all wars are won with swords. Some are survived. Others haunt forever.

For too long, women have been told to confine themselves-physically, socially, and emotionally. Eliza VanCort says now is the time for women to stand tall, raise their voices, and claim their space. 
 
Women fight the pressure to make themselves small in private, professional, and public spaces. VanCort, a teacher, consultant, and speaker, provides the necessary tools for women to rewrite the rules and create the stories of their choosing safely and without apology. 
 
VanCort identifies the five key behaviors of all "Space-Claiming Queens": use your voice and posture to project confidence and power, end self-sabotage, forge connections, neutralize unsafe spaces, and unite across differences. Through personal narrative, research, and actionable strategies, VanCort provides how-tos on combating challenges, such as antimentors and microaggressions, and gives advice for building up your "old girls" club, asking for what you're worth, and owning your space without apology. 
 
Bold, fun, and enlightening, this book is birthed from VanCort's incredible story. Having a mother with schizophrenia forced VanCort to learn to be small and invisible at an early age, and suffering a traumatic brain injury as an adult required her to rethink communication from the ground up. Drawing on these experiences, and those of real women everywhere, VanCort empowers women to claim space for themselves and for their sisters with courage, empathy, and conviction because "when we rise together, we rise so much higher."
