  Edward Vernon-Harcourt (1757–1847) was Archbishop of York from 1807 until his death at the age of 90.
  
   
  As a younger son of a wealthy land-owning family, Archbishop Harcourt depended on good family and political connections to make progress in the Church. He had to combine his responsibility for one of the largest dioceses in the Church of England with his duties in parliament and at court and with providing for his family of 16 children. More supportive of reform of both parliament and the church than most of his fellow bishops, Harcourt took steps to improve the training of ordinands in his diocese, encouraged the building of over 100 new churches to cope with population growth in the industrial towns of the West Riding and made some progress in tackling pluralism and non-residence. He was not afraid to stand up for a cause he believed to be right.
  
   
  In this biography, Tony Vernon-Harcourt examines the professional and family life of one of the last aristocratic bishops in the Church of England.

  The Rise of China as a Global...

  Over the past few decades, China has emerged as a dominant force in global affairs, reshaping the economic, political, and cultural landscape of the 21st century. From its beginnings as an agrarian society to its status as the world's second-largest economy, China's rise has been nothing short of transformative. This journey, marked by rapid industrialization, technological innovation, and assertive foreign policy, has propelled the nation into the global spotlight, prompting discussions about the future balance of power in a multipolar world.  
    
  China’s rise did not happen overnight. Decades of reform, beginning with Deng Xiaoping’s economic policies in the late 1970s, laid the foundation for what would become an economic powerhouse. By opening its markets, encouraging foreign investment, and emphasizing export-driven growth, China achieved an unprecedented transformation. The country’s ambitious initiatives, such as the Belt and Road Initiative, have further cemented its influence across Asia, Africa, and Europe, showcasing its capability to lead large-scale international projects.  
    
  While China’s economic success has garnered global admiration, it has also sparked significant challenges and controversies. Trade wars with the United States, disputes over intellectual property rights, and concerns over its role in international organizations have underscored tensions with other global powers. Simultaneously, its advances in technology, including 5G infrastructure and artificial intelligence, have positioned it as a key competitor to traditional Western tech leaders.

  Damn the Valley - 1st Platoon...

  Featured in Task & Purpose and Army Times."A riveting, unsparing, gritty, first-hand account of life in a great airborne unit that engaged in some of the toughest fighting in Afghanistan."—General David Petraeus, former Commander of the Surge in Iraq, US Central Command, former Commander of NATO/US Forces in Afghanistan and former Director of the CIA.
  
  “DAMN THE VALLEY” was a phrase regularly uttered by the men that spent any amount of time in the Arghandab River Valley during the deployment of 2 Fury to Afghanistan in 2009–2010. The valley has claimed bodies from the troops of Alexander the Great, the British Empire, and more recently, the Russian Army. Operating in the valley was like nothing the men could have envisaged, they called it the “meat grinder.”
  
  It was a deployment that the media didn’t talk about, and the government doesn’t acknowledge. Three of the company were KIA, more than a dozen suffered life-changing injuries, and half the company had Purple Hearts—not many modern-day deployments have a 52% casualty rate. At one point, the entire prosthetics ward at Walter Reed was full of the men who patrolled that deadly area of the world. 
  
  Since their return, many of the survivors have struggled to move on with their lives, and the unit has been declared at "extraordinary risk" by the Department of Veteran Affairs. No one who entered that region was left unscathed. This book shares the perspective of the men that were on the ground for that deployment during the fighting season of 2010.
