    “The Comanche Perspective” illuminates one of the most infamous events in early Texas history—the Council House Fight. Traditionally portrayed through a narrow, one-sided lens, this book challenges the conventional narrative by exploring the complex web of cultural misunderstandings and mounting tensions between the Penateka Comanche and the Texians. Drawing on diverse perspectives and in-depth research, it reveals how mutual distrust and hostility led to the tragic clash on March 19, 1840. By shedding light on the shared responsibilities and deep-seated grievances that fueled this violent encounter, “The Comanche Perspective” provides a fresh and balanced understanding of a crucial moment in the history of the American frontier.

    Courage meets crisis in a doctor's extraordinary true account on the frontlines of maternal healthcare during a deadly epidemic in Sierra Leone.
    In May 2014, as the country grapples with the highest maternal mortality rate globally, a new, invisible threat emerges: Ebola.
    Dr Benjamin Black finds himself at the centre of the outbreak. From the life-and-death decisions on the maternity ward to moral dilemmas in the Ebola Treatment Centres, every moment is a crossroads at which a single choice could tip the balance between survival and catastrophe. The tension is palpable, and the stakes are unimaginably high. One mistake, one error of judgment, could spell disaster.
    Belly Woman is a powerful piece of reportage and advocacy that draws parallels between two global outbreaks of infectious diseases: Ebola and COVID-19. Black's firsthand experience on the frontlines of a global health crisis bears witness to the raw emotions, tough decisions, such as the need to carry out medically-mandated abortions to save lives, and the unwavering dedication that defines the lives of those who step up when the world needs them most.
    Compelling for readers with an interest in medical memoirs, social justice and humanitarianism, as well as healthcare professionals and maternal health caregivers.
