  Twelve American women serving in the military share their gripping personal stories of combat in Iraq. In Iraq, the front lines are everywhere—and everywhere in Iraq, no matter what their job descriptions say, women in the U.S. military are fighting. More than 155,000 of them have deployed to Iraq and Afghanistan since 2003—four times the number of women sent to Desert Storm in 1991. More than 430 have been wounded and over seventy killed—almost twice the number of American women killed in action in Korea, Vietnam, and Desert Storm combined.  But should women be in combat? Do they have what it takes to be warriors? Compelling questions once, but now empty because, more than ever, American women are in combat, and they are warriors. The real question is: What are their experiences of war? We haven’t heard their stories—until now. Band of Sisters presents a dozen groundbreaking and often heart-wrenching stories of American women in combat in Iraq, such as the U.S.’s first female pilot to be shot down and survive, the military’s first black female pilot in combat, a young turret gunner defending convoys, and a nurse struggling to save lives, including her own.  As one female service member said, “We love our country as much as any man, and we have made the same sacrifices as our brothers in arms.” Band of Sisters reveals those sacrifices for the first time. Praise for Band of SistersWinner of the 2007 American Authors Association Golden Quill AwardWinner of the 2007 Military Writers Society of America Founder's Award“An insightful, intimate portrait of America’s fighting women in Iraq. This is must reading.” —Charles Jones, author of Red, White, or Yellow?: The Media and the Military at War in Iraq “Lyrical, visceral, and potent. Kirsten Holmstedt sets a peerless standard as a raconteur with powerful stories of the valor of today’s women in combat.” —David J. Danelo, author of Blood Stripes and The Border“This overdue account . . . reads a swiftly as a thriller, but the thrills here come from the real sacrifices and valor of America’s fighting women.” —Ralph Peters, author of Never Quit the Fight and Wars of Blood and Faith“Inspirational and revealing.” —Paul Riechkhoff, executive director, Iraq and Afghanistan Veterans of America, and author of Chasing Ghosts

  'We sat on our bags and waited, our cargo piled high beside us. The tide lapped at the stone wall below us, and in that moment, with the land behind and the sea in front, I felt the first real jolt of what we were doing. This is real. It's happening.'
  Lesley Bond and her partner, Gordon, were the first couple to embark on the six-month caretaking residency on the Great Blasket Island, one of Ireland´s most remote and historically rich locations. With no electricity, hot water or modern conveniences, their daily existence was like nothing they had experienced before.
  A unique blend of personal reflection and rich heritage, Blasket Bound reveals how the past continues to shape the present. It is a deep exploration of identity, illustrating how the environments we inhabit and the histories we inherit leave an indelible mark.

He was 21 years old. In the fall of 1990, Steven Bott was finishing up a day at work when the unthinkable happened. Several weeks later he woke up in a hospital bed with no memory, physically and cognitively crippled. He was 21 years old. These stories are connected through Chris Richards, Larry’s oldest son and Steven’s close childhood friend. The immense challenges that followed both men would haunt Chris, shaping his life. It wouldn’t be until many years later, when faced with his own crisis, that he would be able to look past his fears and grief and find inspiration within their broken lives.

  Otto von Bismarck - A Life from...

  Otto von Bismarck was not the kind of man who waited for history to happen. He made it happen, and he didn't much care whose feelings got hurt along the way. 
  Bismarck was the pragmatic Prussian statesman who engineered Germany creation as a unified nation through Realpolitik—the unsentimental art of doing whatever it takes to get results. While other politicians speechified and moralized, Bismarck was already three moves ahead, turning all of Europe into his personal chessboard. He made allies, manipulated kings, and baited emperors just so he could maneuver them into position to wage war on them later. Where others saw diplomacy as a matter of trust and principle, Bismarck saw it as a tool to be picked up and discarded as the situation demanded. 
  It was his cynical disposition that allowed him to make and break alliances whenever politically suitable, and he played this game masterfully all the way to Germany's unification under his rule. Few could have threaded the political needle the way Otto von Bismarck—the Iron Chancellor—did. This book follows both his life and his unmatched political career.
