Sinossi

E. H. Jones's "The Road to En-Dor" is a compelling exploration of the intersection between myth and morality, set against the backdrop of a fictionalized ancient world reminiscent of biblical narratives. Through vivid prose and lyrical language, Jones crafts a narrative that oscillates between the existential dilemmas faced by his characters and the rich tapestry of folklore that informs their struggles. The book deftly employs allegory and symbolism, inviting readers to question the nature of fate and free will while engaging with a story steeped in mysticism and cultural heritage. E. H. Jones, a scholar of religious studies and a passionate historian, draws inspiration from a myriad of ancient texts and traditions. His academic background in comparative mythology not only informs his storytelling but also enriches the characters' development, as they grapple with moral complexities that mirror contemporary issues. Jones's immersion in the mythological canon provides a nuanced perspective that enhances the thematic depth of his work, reflecting his belief in the relevance of ancient narratives in today's world. This book is a must-read for those who appreciate intricate world-building and thought-provoking themes. Jones's masterful storytelling is an invitation for readers to journey alongside his characters, engaging with the profound questions of existence. "The Road to En-Dor" promises not just a gripping narrative, but also an introspective experience that lingers long after the final pages are turned.

    A military operation unlike any other on American soil, Morgan's Raid was characterized by incredible speed, superhuman endurance, and innovative tactics. One of the nation's most colorful leaders, Confederate general John Hunt Morgan, took his cavalry through enemy-occupied territory in three states in one of the longest offensives of the Civil War. The effort produced the only battles fought north of the Ohio River and reached farther north than any other regular Confederate force. Morgan's Raid historian David L. Mowery takes a new look at this unprecedented event in American history, one historians rank among the world's greatest land-based raids since Elizabethan times.

    Mana. It's a big word. But what is it? Are you born with it, can you earn it, can it be taken away? 
     
    For more than five decades, Tame Iti has stood at the heart of Aotearoa's struggle for indigenous rights. From land marches to performance art, police raids to prison cells, his voice has challenged New Zealand to reckon with its colonial legacy.  
     
    Once branded as a dangerous and extreme activist, nowhailed as a national treasure, Tame has lived the contradictions and realities of standing with mana motuhake in a modern world. 
     
    After being silenced from speaking te reo Maori as a child, Tame went on to champion its revitalisation. He discovered the power of protest and what it means to live with mana in a world that often tries to strip it away. 
     
    This is his korero of the road he walked and the people who joined him. The comrades, the supporters, and the ones who tried to take him out. 
     
    Mana is the story of a man who has never stopped challenging the status quo. It cements Tame's place as one of Aotearoa's most iconic figures.

    The story of a Green Beret commander's heroism during the Vietnam War, and the long fight to recognize his bravery.When Col. Paris Davis was selected to lead one of the Green Beret A-teams organizing resistance to Communist incursions into South Vietnam, his commanding officer warned him that some of his soldiers would resent his authority. This was no surprise; there were only a handful of Black officers in the Special Forces. Davis quickly won the respect of his soldiers, and would soon fight beside him as bullets snapped past and mortars exploded overhead.On June 18th, Davis led a group of inexperienced locals and Special Forces soldiers in an attack on a Viet Cong base in Bong Son. They were met by a superior enemy force, and Davis led the charge in a grueling firefight. He was seriously wounded, but he disobeyed a direct order to retreat until he dragged three injured Green Berets off the battlefield to safety.Every Weapon I Had is an inspiring tale of valor and sacrifice, set against the backdrop of major escalations in both the Vietnam War and the Civil Rights movement. It is also a story of deferred honor and delayed recognition; Davis earned the Silver Star and Purple Heart for his actions, but his nomination for the Congressional Medal of Honor was repeatedly “lost.” No official reason has ever been given for this oversight, but those who fought to correct it believe that it was motivated by racial prejudice. Davis was finally awarded the Medal in 2023, 58 years after the battle.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

    On December 4th, 1872, a 100-foot brigantine was discovered drifting through the North Atlantic without a soul on board. Not a sign of struggle, not a shred of damage, no ransacked cargo—and not a trace of the captain, his wife and daughter, or the crew. What happened on board the ghost ship Mary Celeste has baffled and tantalized the world for 130 years. Brian Hicks plumbs the depths of this fabled nautical mystery and uncovers the truth. 
     
     
     
    The Mary Celeste was cursed as soon as she was launched on the Bay of Fundy in 1861. Her first captain died before completing the maiden voyage. In London she accidentally rammed and sank an English brig. Later she was abandoned after a storm drove her ashore at Cape Breton. But somehow the ship was recovered and refitted, and in 1872 she fell to the reluctant command of a seasoned mariner named Benjamin Spooner Briggs. It was Briggs who was at the helm when the Mary Celeste sailed into history. 
     
     
     
    The story of the Mary Celeste becomes the quintessential tale of men lost at sea. Hicks vividly recreates the events leading up to the crew's disappearance and then unfolds the complicated and bizarre aftermath. Brian Hicks reveals the truth is actually grounded in the combined tragedies of human error and bad luck.
