  Americans have long been fascinated by the Civil War, marveling at the size of the battles, the leadership of the generals, and the courage of the soldiers. Since the war's start over 150 years ago, the battles have been subjected to endless debate among historians and the generals themselves. 
  By 1863, the Civil War had reached a level of ferocity not yet seen, and the 5 biggest battles would take place in 1863-1864, starting with Chancellorsville. Of all the Civil War battles fought, and of all the victories achieved by Robert E. Lee at the command of the Confederate Army of Northern Virginia, the Battle of Chancellorsville is considered the most tactically complex and ultimately the most brilliant Confederate victory of the war. Despite being outnumbered by over 2-1, Lee's army won a battle that saw 30,000 casualties inflicted upon the two sides. 
  Less than 2 months later, the Army of the Potomac and Army of Northern Virginia faced off in the most famous and biggest battle of the war at Gettysburg. Day 1 of the battle would have been one of the 25 biggest battles of the Civil War itself, and it ended with a tactical Confederate victory. But over the next two days, Lee would try and fail to dislodge the Union army with attacks on both of its flanks during the second day and Pickett’s Charge on the third and final day. Meade’s stout defense held, barely, repulsing each attempted assault, handing the Union a desperately needed victory that ended up being one of the Civil War’s turning points. 
  The second bloodiest battle of the Civil War came in September 1863 at Chickamauga, which saw George H. Thomas save the Union Army of the Cumberland from a disaster on the second day of the battle after a Union blunder had created a gap in the line. After nearly 35,000 casualties suffered by the two sides, Thomas prevented the destruction of the Union army by Braxton Bragg's Army of Tennessee.

  Feeling Is The Secret by Neville Goddard is a seminal work in the field of metaphysics and personal development, emphasizing the profound influence of emotions on the manifestation of desires. First published in 1944, this concise yet powerful book distills Goddard's teachings on the law of attraction and the creative power of the subconscious mind.Goddard's central thesis is that feelings are the key to unlocking the creative potential within each individual. He asserts that it is not enough to merely think about one's desires; one must also cultivate the corresponding feelings to bring these desires into reality. By aligning thoughts with emotions, individuals can effectively impress their desires upon the subconscious mind, which in turn shapes their external reality.The book is divided into four chapters:The Law and Its Operation:Goddard explains the fundamental principles of the law of attraction and the role of the subconscious mind in manifesting desires. He emphasizes that the conscious mind directs and the subconscious mind executes, making the feeling of the wish fulfilled essential for successful manifestation.Sleep:This chapter highlights the importance of the state of mind before sleep. Goddard advises using the moments before sleep to focus on positive emotions and desired outcomes, as this is when the subconscious mind is most receptive to suggestions.Prayer:Goddard redefines prayer as a feeling rather than a verbal request. He encourages readers to embody the feeling of their desires already being fulfilled during prayer, thereby creating a sense of certainty and inevitability.Spirit – Feeling:The final chapter delves deeper into the relationship between spirit and feeling. Goddard explores how emotions connect individuals to their spiritual essence and the universal creative power, reinforcing the idea that feeling is the secret to effective creation.Feeling Is The Secret is a timeless guide that empowers readers to harness their emotions and subconscious mind to create the life they desire. Its practical wisdom and clear instructions make it an invaluable resource for anyone seeking to understand and apply the principles of manifestation and the law of attraction.This book remains a cornerstone in the study of metaphysics and personal transformation, offering profound insights into the dynamic interplay between thoughts, feelings, and reality.

  The long-awaited reissue of Alice Coltrane’s original spiritual teachings and reflections, which provide powerful insight into her transcendent music, cherished by millions across the globe.  
  ALICE COLTRANE (1937–2007) was a composer, master of various musical instruments, improviser, spiritual leader, and wife of John Coltrane. Throughout her adult life, she worked within and combined a broad range of musical genres, including gospel, R&B, bebop, free jazz, Indian devotional song, and Western art music. She recorded more than twenty full-length albums for Impulse and Warner Bros. Her music speaks to her experiences as a child playing for church congregations in Detroit; the transcendent and mind-bending avant-garde improvisations she performed with her husband John Coltrane; and her religious pilgrimages to India.  
  When Monument Eternal was originally published in 1977, Alice Coltrane was living in Southern California and had recently become a swami, building and nurturing an alternative spiritual community. In these pages, she says that the book is “based upon the soul’s realizations in Absolute Consciousness and its spiritual relationships with the Supreme One.” Monument Eternal offers deep insight into Coltrane’s tremendous musical output and shines a light on her transformation from Alice McLeod, Detroit church organist and bebopper, to sage thought leader Swami Turiyasangitananda. It also reflects the extraordinary fluidity of American religious customs in the mid- and late-twentieth century.  
  Akashic’s long-awaited reissue of Monument Eternal includes a new foreword by Ashley Kahn.
