Sinopse

In "Life of Bunyan," James Hamilton offers a profound examination of the life and spiritual journey of John Bunyan, the celebrated author of "The Pilgrim's Progress." Through a meticulous blend of biographical narrative and literary analysis, Hamilton situates Bunyan within the socio-political context of 17th-century England, drawing attention to the trials of dissenting faith and the rich tapestry of allegory that characterizes Bunyan's work. The prose is both accessible and scholarly, reflecting Hamilton's command of historical and theological themes while inviting readers to explore the innate struggles and triumphs of a man whose faith was tested through imprisonment and personal loss. James Hamilton, a respected scholar of English literature, brings a wealth of insight borne from his deep engagement with Puritan literature and the historical circumstances of the Reformation. His background in theology and literary studies informs his nuanced portrayal of Bunyan, shedding light on how the author's profound religious convictions and personal adversities spurred his literary creativity, firmly positioning Bunyan's narrative within the larger discourse of faith and resilience. For readers seeking a rich exploration of the intersection of faith and literature, "Life of Bunyan" is an essential text. Hamilton'Äôs blend of scholarly rigor and narrative elegance illuminates Bunyan'Äôs life and works, making it an invaluable resource for those interested in understanding the spiritual legacy of one of Christianity's most influential writers.

    Perfect for fans of Peter Hart, Max Hastings, and Barbara W. Tuchman. 
     
     
     
    In the spring of 1918 German forces broke through Allied lines in a last-ditch attempt to overcome their enemies. To hold back this tide young, inexperienced men from France, Britain, the United States, Australia, and Canada were sent into war against battle-hardened and desperate German soldiers. 
     
     
     
    What was it like to be an eighteen-year-old and sent to the frontlines in the First World War? 
     
     
     
    Frederick James Hodges was one of these young men and his book, Men of 18 in 1918, provides insight into the ordeals of an ordinary soldier who left Britain as a teenager but returned as a man having witnessed the full horrors of war. 
     
     
     
    Hodges charts his progress through the conflict from his short period of training to being thrown into defending Allied lines against the onslaught before being ordered, as part of Britain's prime assault troops, into a ninety-five-day non-stop attack which only ended with the armistice of November 1918.

    The compelling inside story of how America abandoned Afghanistan. 
     
     
     
    When America retreated from Kabul amid chaos in 2021, Lieutenant General Sami Sadat, the last commander of the army of the Afghan republic, was still fighting to the end. In this firsthand account, he reveals how his troops were starved of ammunition for two years before the final pullout, while America was glad-handing the Taliban. Although Sadat spent his early career fighting alongside the CIA to track down al-Qaeda in the mountains of the Hindu Kush, it was in conventional combat—leading from the front—that he made his name. In The Last Commander, he contends that Afghanistan could have won the war if support had continued. President Biden may have ended America's longest war, but the story does not end there. Now Sadat's birth country is plunged into barbarism, where women are beaten for showing their face and his former comrades are hunted down and killed. But Sadat is planning to fight back. It will not be easy, but this riveting personal account of combat shows that if anyone can do it, he can. 
     
     
     
    Sadat's story was told in the Emmy Award–winning documentary Retrograde. Now he tells it for himself.
