    This in-depth Civil War study examines two early Union victories that were instrumental in deciding the conflict’s ultimate outcome. Some historians argue that the Civil War was decided in February 1862 with the collapse of the Confederate defenses of Forts Henry and Donelson on the Tennessee and Cumberland Rivers. This ambitious offensive opened the whole Tennessee Valley to Union invasion and control, effectively cutting the Confederacy in two.  In domino fashion, the Confederates lost Nashville and central and western Tennessee. Memphis eventually fell, and the upper stretch of the Mississippi itself was brought under Union control. During this period, General Ulysses S. Grant came to prominence, putting him in place to lead the Union to victory. Where the South Lost the War is a major contribution to Civil war literature. Shedding light on an overlooked campaign and revising conventional judgments on key players and events, author Kendall D. Gott provides a detailed, incisive, and even controversial study of the operation’s events.

    You accomplish life goals, but your Aunt did not due to her failing to put in the work and now out of envy she blames you as to why she cannot accomplish any of her life goals. Your friend of 15+ years publicly disgraced himself, but turned around, and publicly erroneously blamed and defamed you for it. Many people are faced with being blamed for other people's shortcomings. Most of the problems that people face are caused by no other person but themselves. A lot of times it is easy to blame someone else for the cause of the problem rather than take responsibility for one's own actions. For some people it is easy to accept the blame if the blamer provides a compelling reason why their accusation is true and if the person being blamed is not confident enough to put up a strong defense against the accusation. I Am Not The Cause Of Your Problems serves to empower and encourage you when faced with situations of being falsely blamed for other people's problems by providing an understanding that you are not the cause for every problem that other people face and also how to remove yourself from such a situation.  
    I Am Not The Cause Of Your Problems will help you to identify behaviors that try to deceive you into thinking you are the cause of other people's problems, to help you begin to stand up for yourself in such a situation, distance yourself from such a situation, recover from erroneously being blamed for other people's problems and to begin a life free from carrying other peoples weight around. You can gain the confidence to stand-up and firmly state: I am not the cause of your problems to anyone who tries to cast blame on you for their own problems.

    24 Stunden Aus Dem Leben Einer Frau

    Die elegante 67 jährige englische Dame Mrs. C. erzählt von den außergewöhnlichsten 24 Stunden ihres Lebens vor über 20 Jahren: Die aufrüttelnde Begegnung mit einem verzweifelten Spieler ändert schlagartig ihr Leben. Sie kommt dabei den seelischen Abgründen von haltloser Leidenschaft beim Spiel und in der Liebe gefährlich nahe. Der österreichische Schriftsteller Stefan Zweig ist zweifellos einer der größten Erzähler Europas. Jeder Satz funkelt in sprachlicher Schönheit und strahlt in überwältigender Bildhaftigkeit. Die psychologisch feingezeichneten Figuren offenbaren präzise und brillant, wieviel unter der kontrollierten Oberfläche der Konvention verborgen liegt. Das Duo Phantasma mit Michael Stülpnagel (Erzähler) und Johannes Weigle (Soundtrack) bringt die Worte zum Klingen und Sie erleben diese mitreißende Novelle durch die Kraft der Phantasie in ihrer ganzen Einzigartigkeit. Gekürzte Lesung.

    Rene Descartes is often described as the first modern philosopher, but much of the content of his Meditations on First Philosophy can be found in the medieval period that had already existed for more than a thousand years. Does God exist? If so, what is his nature? Is the human soul immortal? How does it differ from the body? What role do sense experience and pure reason play in knowing?
     
    Descartes stands out from his predecessors because of the method he developed to treat these and other fundamental questions. Drawing on his study of mathematics, he searches for a way to establish absolutely certain conclusions based on indubitable premises. His importance in modern philosophy lies in the challenge he offers to every subsequent thinker in philosophy and science.

    Shattered Empire chronicles the dramatic centuries that reshaped the Byzantine Empire from the height of its medieval power to the brink of collapse and eventual renewal. This volume explores the unraveling of imperial authority after Basil II, the catastrophic defeat at Manzikert, the Komnenian restoration, and the complex entanglements with the Crusades. It delves into the empire’s role as a diplomatic broker, the economic and religious controversies that rocked its foundations, and the devastating sack of Constantinople in 1204. Through the lens of exile and resilience, the book reveals how Byzantium’s people, faith, and culture endured, adapted, and ultimately laid the groundwork for a remarkable, if fragile, recovery.
