Synopsis

In "Critical Miscellanies: On Pattison's Memoirs," John Morley delves into the nuanced interplay between biography and criticism, providing a reflective examination of the life and thoughts of Richard Holt Pattison. Utilizing a clear and engaging prose style, Morley crafts a work that not only critiques Pattison's contributions to the intellectual landscape of his time but also situates those contributions within the broader context of 19th-century philosophy and critical theory. This intricate analysis employs Morley'Äôs characteristic blend of eloquence and precision, navigating complex ideas with clarity while inviting readers to ponder the intricacies of moral and intellectual thought. Morley, a prominent Victorian thinker and politician, draws upon his deep-seated knowledge of philosophy and literature, as well as his experiences in the political arena. His familiarity with Pattison's work is reflective of his commitment to intellectual rigor and his belief in the importance of critical inquiry in shaping public discourse. This background enables Morley to thoughtfully assess Pattison's memoirs, emphasizing their significance in understanding the evolution of modern thought. I wholeheartedly recommend "Critical Miscellanies: On Pattison's Memoirs" to anyone seeking a profound exploration of the intersections between biography, criticism, and the philosophical currents of the era. Morley'Äôs insightful analysis not only pays homage to Pattison but also serves as an essential text for scholars and general readers alike, eager to engage with the complexities of literary criticism and the moral underpinnings of intellectual history.

    The MEDITATIONS of Marcus Aurelius

    Written in Greek by an intellectual Roman emperor without any intention of publication, the Meditations of Marcus Aurelius offer a wide range of fascinating spiritual reflections and exercises developed as the leader struggled to understand himself and make sense of the universe. Spanning from doubt and despair to conviction and exaltation, they cover such diverse topics as the question of virtue, human rationality, the nature of the gods and the values of leadership. But while the Meditations were composed to provide personal consolation, in developing his beliefs Marcus also created one of the greatest of all works of philosophy: a series of wise and practical aphorisms that have been consulted and admired by statesmen, thinkers and ordinary readers for almost two thousand years.

    RAF Boys in the Far East - True...

    For eighty-two years the Royal Flying Corps (RFC), which in 1918 became the Royal Air Force (RAF), maintained a permanent military aviation presence in the Far East. The first RFC units arrived in India in 1915. RAF India grew substantially in the interwar period and throughout World War Two. Various changes in the command structure finally saw the creation of the Far East Air Force (FEAF) in June 1949, covering South East Asia and Hong Kong. In the 1960s the UK government decided to withdraw all forces East of Suez and on October 31, 1971, the FEAF disbanded and most UK forces withdrew from Singapore at this time. The last RAF unit to leave the region was 28 Squadron flying. They had been operating Whirlwind and Wessex helicopters in Hong Kong until the territory was handed back to China in 1997. RAF Boys in the Far East illustrates what it was like for those air and ground crew who were there by telling their stories in their own words, supported by explanation of the situations at the time primarily drawn from veterans' own collections. Today those veterans who look back on their time served in the FEAF do so with a great deal of pride, and rightly so. This is their story.

    "...a brutal, honest account by an American veteran of what went wrong and how a few determined people tried to make it right. Beautifully crafted and deeply researched, it marks a vital contribution to the accounts that have come out of the War on Terror."— Sebastian Junger, New York Times bestselling author
    
    As the American government began a disastrous mass evacuation of its Afghan allies, a group of American veterans saw the writing on the wall—the people who had supported them on the ground over the past two decades were going to be left behind. Instead of watching on the sideline, they sprang into action. The effort became known nationally as #DigitalDunkirk, in reference to the civilian aspect of the evacuation of soldiers from the beaches of Dunkirk in 1940. As America's last days in Afghanistan came to a chaotic end, an ad-hoc group of veterans, intelligence assets and legislative aides undertook an extraordinary mission to honor the U.S. battlefield creed to leave no comrade behind.
     
    Relying on cell phones and satellites as their weapons, they worked feverishly around the clock to help evacuate as many Afghans who had supported U.S. troops over the past twenty years as possible. As the desperate mass of Afghans tried to flee brutal Taliban rule, Marines of the 2nd Battalion, 1st Marines, worked at Hamid Karzai International Airport's Abbey Gate in conditions that brought combat-hardened veterans to tears. After an ISIS suicide bomber detonated his S-vest, killing 13 U.S. service members, operations came to a halt.
     
    Told through the eyes of Mikael, his Afghan friend Abdul and the 2/1 Marines on the ground, including a Marine squad leader who personally led the Afghans through the airport, Life and Death at Abbey Gate tells the story behind the story of the mass evacuation of over 124,000 Americans and Afghan allies during a two-week period in the summer of 2021. 
     
    This is an important story that should be read by all Americans. A story of leadership, empty government promises and the convictions of our military to stand by our allies in their time of need.

    In this candid and thought-provoking memoir, a millennial woman of Black and Chinese heritage reflects on the complexities of growing up with a mixed identity in the American South and beyond. From childhood memories to college experiences and a burgeoning career, Blackinese explores the nuances of race, culture, and belonging, tackling everything from food and music to dating, politics, and religion. 
    With vulnerable honesty, author Patricia Bradby Moore takes readers on a journey through her ever-evolving sense of self, which has been shaped by her diverse upbringing and global travels. From navigating the challenges of being multiracial in the U.S. to exploring how race is understood and experienced in other parts of the world, her story speaks to the growing population of mixed-race individuals who don’t fit into simple boxes. 
    Blackinese is an invitation to reflect on identity, empathy, and the shared human experience. With every page, it encourages readers to embrace their complexity and find strength in their uniqueness. This is a memoir for anyone who has ever felt they don’t quite fit the mold and for those who want to better understand what it means to live in a world where the lines of race and identity are anything but clear.
