  This is small part of introduction of the book: Welcome, dear reader, to a journey through the annals of time, where the threads of history weave together to reveal the remarkable tale of Emperor Yao. As we embark on this adventure, we shall traverse the vast landscapes of ancient China, unearthing the legacy of a man who stands as one of the Three Sovereigns and Five Emperors, a luminary figure whose virtues illuminated an era long past. Imagine, if you will, the distant mists of antiquity, when empires were yet to be forged, and civilizations were in their tender infancy. In this age of wonder and discovery, Emperor Yao emerged, leaving an indelible mark upon the tapestry of humanity. Our journey commences by peering through the mists of time, into the heart of ancient China. This storied land, replete with emerald valleys and winding rivers, was a cradle of culture, innovation, and aspirations. Here, amidst the rustling leaves and flowing waters, Emperor Yao's story unfurls.

  Do You Trust God? 
  Meg Apperson grew up having a relationship with Jesus, and she always trusted God. But it wasn't until her daughter Avery-a miracle in so many ways-was born with a litany of life-threatening birth defects that she began to fully understand what it means to trust Jesus with everything. 
  In this heartbreakingly beautiful memoir, you'll learn how a mother fought for her child, her family, and even herself as she grappled with the weight of failure-of letting down everyone around her and feeling let down by God. 
  But in the midst of the fight, through heavy grief, she not only discovered her own voice-she discovered that God is both good and faithful. 
  If you have ever experienced grief, suffering, or pain; if God has ever asked you to surrender more than you thought possible; if you've ever questioned how God is at work in the darkness . . . Sky Full of Stars is for you. 
  This book will show you that when everything around you is dark, peace can be found in the suffering. You'll discover new ways to rely on God's trustworthiness.

  Resented by some in New York and beloved in Los Angeles, O'Malley is one of the most controversial owners in the history of American sports. He remade major league baseball and altered the course of history in both Brooklyn and Los Angeles when he moved the Dodgers to California. But while many New York critics attacked him, O'Malley looked to the future, declining to argue his case. As a result, fans across the nation have been unable to stop arguing about him-until now. 
   
  Using never-before-seen documents and candid interviews with O'Malley's players, associates, and relatives, Pulitzer Prize-winning writer Michael D'Antonio finally reveals this complex sportsman and industry pioneer. Born into Tammany Hall connections, O'Malley used political contacts to grow wealthy during the Great Depression, and then maneuvered to take control of the formerly downtrodden Dodgers. After his defeat in a war of wills with the famed power broker Robert Moses, O'Malley uprooted the borough's team and transplanted them to Los Angeles. Once in Los Angeles, O'Malley overcame opponents of his stadium and helped define the city. Other owners came to regard him as their unofficial commissioner as he worked behind the scenes to usher in the age of the players' union and free agency. 
   
  Filled with new revelations about O'Malley's battle with Moses, his pioneering business strategies, and his relationship with Jackie Robinson, Forever Blue is a fascinating history of baseball, business, and the American West.

  The exhilarating true story of the greatest escape route of the Second World War On a hot afternoon in August 1941, a 24-year-old Belgian woman walks into the British consulate in Bilbao, neutral Spain, and demands to see the consul. She presents him with a British soldier she has smuggled all the way from Brussels, through Occupied France and over the Pyrenees. It is a journey she will make countless times thereafter, at unthinkable danger to her own life. Her name is Andrée de Jongh, though she will come to be known as the 'Little Cyclone' in tribute to her extraordinary courage and tenacity. And she is an inspiration. From nursing wounded Allied servicemen, de Jongh will go on to establish the most famous escape line of the Second World War, saving the lives of more than 800 airmen and soldiers stranded behind enemy lines. The risks, however, will be enormous. The cost, unspeakably tragic. Her story is shot through with the constant terror of discovery and interception - of late-night knocks at the door, of disastrous moonlit river crossings, Gestapo infiltrators, firing squads and concentration camps. It is also a classic true story of fear overcome by giddying bravery. Originally published shortly after the war, Little Cyclone is a mesmerising tale of the best of humanity in the most unforgiving circumstances: a remarkable and inspiring account to rival the most dramatic of thrillers. Royalties from the sale of this book will go to the Airey Neave Trust.
