  My First Thirty Years - A Memoir

  Gertrude Beasley, Marie Bennett,...

  Shortly after its 1925 publication, Gertrude Beasley's ferociously eloquent feminist memoir was banned and she herself disappeared under mysterious circumstances. Though British Nobel Prize winner Bertrand Russell called My First Thirty Years "truthful, which is illegal" and Larry McMurtry pronounced it the finest Texas book of its era, Beasley's words have been all but inaccessible for almost a century—until now. 
   
  Beasley penned one of the most brutally honest coming-of-age historical memoirs, one which strips away romantic notions about frontier women's lives at the turn of the twentieth century. With characteristic ferocity, Beasley rejected a life of dependence, persisting in her studies and becoming first a teacher, then a principal, then a college instructor, and finally a foreign correspondent. 
   
  Along the way, Beasley becomes a strident activist for women's rights, socialism, and sex education. She is undaunted by authority figures but secretly ashamed of her origins and yearns to be loved. My First Thirty Years is profoundly human and shockingly candid, a rallying cry that cost its author her career and her freedom. 
   
  Her story deserves to be heard. 
   
  Contains mature themes.

  A small and effeminate boy—bullied for years while growing up in an alcoholic family in suburban Cleveland—Gil finds refuge in the equestrian world. A coach instills in him the dream of going to the Olympics and becomes his mentor, his guide—and his predator. 
  Gil survives rape, betrayals, setbacks, and the loss of family and friends—all while on a quest to fulfill his dream. This book is not only about surviving; it's about the resilience of the human spirit and the pursuit of dreams against all odds. Gil makes it to the Olympics, but not in the way he imagined. He discovers what happens when a dream ends, and all you have left are your addictions. 
  What does it take to finally realize that our lives can’t go on as they are? How do we put an end to our self-destructive ways? Is it even possible to grasp the complexities of untreated and unrealized trauma? How do we come to terms with the cost of the abuse we suffered? 
  Gil tells his story with a breadth of detail and thought-provoking insights rarely shared by male victims of sexual abuse. Readers will find a story of hope, determination, and the transformative power of confronting one's past.

  Becoming Elijah - Prophet of...

  The story of the prophet Elijah's transformation from fierce zealot to compassionate hero and cherished figure in Jewish tradition 
   
   
   
  In the Bible Elijah is a zealous prophet, attacking idolatry and injustice, championing God. He performs miracles, restoring life and calling down fire. When his earthly life ends, he vanishes in a whirlwind, carried off to heaven in a fiery chariot. Was this a spectacular death, or did Elijah escape death entirely? The latter view prevailed. Though residing in heaven, Elijah revisits earth—to help, rescue, enlighten, and eventually herald the Messiah. Because of his messianic role, Jews open the door for Elijah during each seder—the meal commemorating liberation from slavery and anticipating final redemption. 
   
   
    
  How did this zealot turn into a compassionate hero—apparently the most popular figure in Jewish tradition? Becoming Elijah explores this question, tracing how Elijah develops from the Bible to Rabbinic Judaism, Kabbalah, and Jewish ritual (as well as Christianity and Islam). His transformation is pertinent and inspirational for our polarized, fanatical world.

  An inspiring true story that blends life, leadership, and lessons learned  Throughout most of his life, Ethan Spelman felt like he was never good enough. Despite his friendly demeanor and perceived success, he was haunted by his past, controlled by his fears, and consumed by emptiness and loneliness. But destiny – disguised as an ill-timed business trip – ultimately changed the trajectory of his life, and led him to discover and then champion the life-changing power of leadership done right.  By immersing himself in leadership principles and practices and infusing them into his own life story, Ethan discovers that leadership can transcend lives – especially his own. As he works to incorporate leadership into all aspects of his life, he unleashes the leader within – and finds the courage and strength to come to terms with his past, overcome his fears, leave the loneliness behind, and move forward with confidence, conviction, and hope.  If you believe that real leadership is much greater than the titles we hold, seek to find the light in your own darkness, or long to discover the leader within, you’ll be inspired by this candid true story interwoven with powerful leadership lessons that have helped the author transform his life – and may help unleash the leader in you.
