    A “masterful and eminently readable” journey through the fascinating insights and revelations of Biblical archeology (Publishers Weekly, starred review). Many of our religious beliefs are based on faith alone, but archaeology gives us the opportunity to find evidence about what really happened in the distant past—evidence that can have a dramatic impact on what and how we believe. In Digging Through the Bible, archaeologist and rabbi Richard Freund takes readers through digs he has led in the Holy Land, searching for evidence about key biblical characters and events.  Digging Through the Bible presents overviews of the evidence surrounding figures such as Moses, Kings David and Solomon, and Mary the mother of Jesus, as well as new information that can help us more fully understand the life and times in which these people would have lived. Freund also presents new evidence about finding the grave of the Teacher of Righteousness mentioned in the Dead Sea Scrolls, and gives a compelling argument about how the Exodus of the Israelites may have taken place in three separate waves over time, rather than in a single event as presented in the Bible.

    The Battle of the Little Bighorn and the massacre of Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer and five companies of the U.S. 7th Cavalry in June 1876 is one of the best-remembered events of the turbulent period known as the Wild West. This defeat came as a stunning shock to most Americans. Before Custer’s Last Stand, there was a general assumption that in any full-scale battle between Native Americans and the U.S. Army, the army would prevail. Events at the Little Bighorn River changed that perception, and people soon began to wonder just why this defeat had happened. In the immediate aftermath of the massacre, Custer was hailed as a hero who had died with his men attempting to stop Native American warriors who were threatening white settlers. It would be more than 50 years before a new version of events emerged in which Custer’s presumed arrogance and hubris were given as the reason why he led his troops against a Native American force that outnumbered them by almost ten to one. 
What precipitated this fateful battle? Did Custer really make tactical mistakes that led to his death and the death of all the men under his direct command? Given that no member of the five companies of the 7th Cavalry survived, can we even establish what really happened on June 25, 1876? Let’s take a look at the real story of the Battle of the Little Bighorn.

    For officers with 15-25 years of service, leaving the military isn't a job search problem, it's an identity crisis. When the rank comes off, the chain of command disappears, and the institutional structure that defined you for two decades is gone, most transition guides leave you with checklists. This one gives you a strategy. The Campaign of Your Life applies the campaign planning methodology you already know to the five pillars of civilian transition: military requirements, financial reality, employment strategy, corporate culture, and personal reinvention. The result is a Personal Transition Campaign Plan built for the officer mindset - honest, structured, and designed to get you from institutional certainty to civilian success. The mission isn't over. It's just changing.

    Of the many profound works by James Allen, the pioneering voice of the New Thought movement, The Mastery of Destiny stands as a powerful and practical guide to the pinnacle of self-creation. While his timeless classic, As a Man Thinketh, laid the foundation by revealing the formative power of thought, this volume builds upon it, charting the path to conscious living and absolute self-command. Written as a companion piece to The Life Triumphant , it delves into the principles of self-control, willpower, and purpose, arguing that we are not mere bystanders to fate but active architects of our destiny. Allen’s philosophy, distilled from a life marked by hardship and contemplation , asserts that by mastering our inner world, we can transform our outer circumstances, turning suffering into triumph and chaos into order. 
Here, Allen moves from principle to practice, meticulously detailing how the laws of mind and character operate in everyday life. He argues with compelling conviction that destiny is not a matter of chance, but a matter of choice—the direct result of deeds and habits willingly repeated until they become the iron girders of our fate. This is the science of self-determination, a call to harness the divine forces of will and purpose to rise above circumstance and forge a life of profound accomplishment and peace. 
Positioned between the foundational insights of As a Man Thinketh and the structural wisdom of Eight Pillars of Prosperity, The Mastery of Destiny is the essential manual for the application of Allen's philosophy. It is for those who understand the power of thought and are now ready to undertake the greatest of all journeys: the mastery of oneself.
