  The Women of Rendezvous is a dramatic transatlantic story about five women who birthed children by the same prominent Barbados politician and enslaver. Two of the women were his wives, two he enslaved, and one was a servant in his household. All were determined to make their way in a world that vastly and differentially circumscribed their life choices. From a Barbados plantation to the center of England's empire in London, Hester Tomkyns, Frances Knights, Susannah Mingo, Elizabeth Ashcroft, and Dorothy Spendlove built remarkable lives for themselves and their children in spite of, not because of, the man who linked them together. 
   
   
   
  Mining seventeenth- and eighteenth-century court records, deeds, wills, church registers, and estate inventories, Jenny Shaw centers the experiences of the women and their children, intertwining the microlevel relationships of family and the macrolevel political machinations of empire to show how white supremacy and racism developed in England and the colonies. Shaw also explores England's first slave society in North America, provides a glimpse into Black Britain long before the Windrush generation of the twentieth century, and demonstrates that England itself was a society with slaves in the early modern era.

  The Syrian Civil War, which began in 2011, stands as one of the most devastating conflicts in modern history, reshaping not only Syria but the entire Middle East and the international political landscape. The war has drawn in numerous global powers, each with their own motivations, and has sparked a humanitarian crisis of unparalleled scale. This conflict is not merely a battle between the Assad regime and opposition groups but a complex web of local, regional, and international rivalries, ideologies, and geopolitical interests. As the fighting continues, the war has resulted in staggering human loss, displacement, and destruction, leaving a country in ruins and millions of people displaced across borders. 
  At the heart of the Syrian Civil War lies a struggle for power, with multiple factions vying for control over a fractured nation. The Assad regime, backed by Russia and Iran, has maintained a firm grip on large parts of the country. Meanwhile, various opposition groups, initially united by a common goal of overthrowing the regime, soon fractured into competing factions with differing ideologies, including Islamic extremists and Kurdish forces. The conflict became a battleground for regional and global powers, each seeking to shape Syria’s future in line with their own strategic interests. The United States, Turkey, and other Western powers became deeply involved, often supporting rebel groups or fighting alongside Kurdish forces in the fight against the Islamic State (ISIS), further complicating an already volatile situation. 
  The humanitarian impact of the Syrian Civil War has been catastrophic. With over half of the pre-war population displaced and millions of civilians killed, the war has created one of the largest refugee crises in history. The fighting has destroyed critical infrastructure, making it difficult to deliver aid to those in need, while the global response has often been inadequate.

  The suspenseful true story of a love that defied Nazi oppression, and a harrowing journey to freedom. 
   
   
    
  In 1945, Ditha Bruncel was living with her parents in the small town of Lossen, in Upper Silesia. Close Jewish friends had vanished, swastikas hung from every building, and neighbors were disappearing in the middle of the night. At the same time more than fifteen hundred British and Commonwealth airmen were being marched out of Stalag Luft VII, a POW camp in the same region. Twenty-three of these prisoners managed to escape from the marching column—and by chance hobbled into Lossen. One among them, Warrant Officer Gordon Slowey, was the man Ditha was destined to meet and fall in love with. 
   
   
    
  Into Enemy Arms tells the extraordinary story of Ditha and the escaped POWs she helped save. Together, they embarked on a dangerous and daring flight out of Germany. As they faced exhaustion, hunger, extreme cold, and the constant risk of discovery, Ditha and Gordon's love for one another intensified, and so did their determination to survive and escape.
