Summary

In 'Joy and Power: Three Messages with One Meaning', Henry Van Dyke presents a thought-provoking exploration of the interplay between joy and personal strength within the human experience. This work is structured as a triptych of messages that succinctly articulates the transformative power of joy, illustrating how it can elevate the human spirit even in the face of adversity. Van Dyke's lyrical prose and reflective style are imbued with spiritual insight, drawing readers into a contemplative dialogue about the essence of happiness and its profound implications for a fulfilling life. Set against the backdrop of early 20th-century America, the book resonates with the burgeoning interest in self-help and spiritual literature of the time. Henry Van Dyke was an accomplished poet, novelist, and theologian, with a background that combined literary elegance with a deep understanding of spirituality. His rich experiences as a pastor and educator likely informed the thematic concerns of this book, as he sought to illuminate the joy inherent in faith and life. The synthesis of his poetic sensibility and his beliefs shines through in this work, making it a compelling read for those interested in the confluence of art and spirituality. I highly recommend 'Joy and Power' to readers seeking uplifting guidance in a complex world. Van Dyke's gentle wisdom and motivating prose will inspire reflection and action, appealing to anyone navigating the challenges of modern life. This book invites readers to reclaim their joy and discover the power it brings, making it a timeless addition to one's literary exploration of self and spirituality.

    “This military biography clearly and informatively rescues from an undeserved obscurity one of the Union’s key commanders at the battle of Gettysburg.” —Midwest Book Review Citizen-soldier Strong Vincent was many things: Harvard graduate, lawyer, political speaker, descendent of pilgrims and religious refugees, husband, father, brother. But his greatest contribution to history is as the savior of the Federal left flank on the second day at Gettysburg, when he and his men held Little Round Top against overwhelming Confederate numbers. Forgotten by history in favor of his subordinate, Joshua Lawrence Chamberlain, Vincent has faded into relative obscurity in the decades since his death. This book restores Vincent to his rightful place among the heroes of the battle of Gettysburg: presenting his life story using new, never-before-published sources and archival material to bring the story of one of the most forgotten officers of the American Civil War back to the attention of readers and historians.“This is a well-researched and well-written book, and the author makes a strong case for Colonel Vincent’s essential role in the union victory at Gettysburg.” —The Journal of America’s Military Past “Erie, Pennsylvania historian Hans G. Myers brings to life an overlooked Gettysburg hero . . . a good, well-researched biography certainly worth the read.” —Maine at War“Readers of battle history, in particular the voluminous literature on Gettysburg, will find interest in both the short life of Strong Vincent and the hereto unheralded role his decisions played in saving the Federal left flank at Little Round Top.” —Journal of MilitaryHistory

    This book explores why there is a major war again in Europe. Putin's actions need to be understood if not forgiven. With the Ukraine conflict seen as a proxy war of NATO versus Russia, how likely is the fighting to spread? 
     
     
     
    The author, a highly respected journalist and political commentator, explains why Russia invaded a sovereign neighbor. To what extent did NATO's expansion to Russia's borders in the aftermath of the Cold War provoke Putin? Did the West's recent humiliating defeats in the Middle East and South Asia encourage Putin to exploit what he saw as its decadent strategic weakness and lack of resolve? What were the reasons for Russia's savage behavior in Ukraine? How might the Ukraine war end and what will the post-bellum world look like? 
     
     
     
    The war in Ukraine has had worldwide impact with cost of living, food and energy crises, and raised the risk of nuclear Armageddon by accident or intent. It examines the complex military and political issues in layman's language while the story is told as a compelling historical narrative. 
     
     
     
    Professor Moorcraft, who has worked in Ukraine and has witnessed Russian troops in action in Afghanistan, is superbly qualified to write this work.

    Elias Thorne, a celebrated expert in forensic psychology, believes his life is a model of structure and truth—until his architect wife, Vivian Sterling, vanishes. Her only clue is a cryptic note: "The Only Lie That Matters Is the One You Tell Yourself." 
    Elias initially suspects infidelity, but his investigation leads him to a terrifying discovery: his perfect life, his esteemed career, and even his own memories were meticulously engineered by a clandestine organization known as The Cadre.

He soon realizes Vivian did not run from him; she ran for him, sacrificing her own safety to expose the ultimate deception and lead him to the one person he was programmed to forget: his sister, Phoenix. 
    Now, Elias must race across continents to evade The Cadre, decipher Vivian’s final, devastating secrets, and confront his creator to save the family he never knew he had. The Last Thing She Said is a high-stakes psychological thriller that asks: If the foundation of your life is built on a lie, how far would you go to reclaim the truth? 
    Discover the Masterpiece of Deception That Will Make You Question the Reality of Your Own Memories.

    RMS Titanic was a British passenger liner, operated by the White Star Line, that sank in the North Atlantic Ocean on April 15, 1912, after striking an iceberg during her maiden voyage from Southampton, England, to New York City. Of the estimated 2,224 passengers and crew aboard, more than 1,500 died, making it the deadliest sinking of a single ship up to that time. It remains the deadliest peacetime sinking of an ocean liner or cruise ship. In this 1993 interview, Eva Hart, a seven year-old passenger on the Titanic, offers a vivid account of her family's unexpected journey aboard the Titanic, and her mother's unsettling premonition. As Hart said of the ship having too few lifeboats: "One life is worth more than the whole ship, surely."
