Synopsis

For sixty years, the armies of the tsar fought a multi-generational ethnic and religious war against the mountain peoples of the Caucasus, leaving a deep cultural impact on the participants and their descendants which resounds to this day. Translated into English for the first time, The Sixty-Year Caucasian War is the seminal account of this tumultuous contest. Through the clear and experienced eyes of the 19th century chronicler Rostislav Fadeev, who was himself a distinguished multi-decade veteran of the war, this work provides a comprehensive analysis of the key players, battles, and political dynamics that shaped this decisive period in Russian history.

Until the appointment of Prince Baryatinsky to commander-in-chief of the Russian forces in 1856, the brutal and complex conflict seemed locked in a stalemate after decades of heroic resistance by the Caucasian tribes. In just three years’ time, Baryatinsky was able to break the spine of Caucasian resistance, kill or capture its leadership, and subdue the entirety of the eastern Caucasus. This pivotal work bears witness to the courage and martial prowess of both the Caucasians and their Russian conquerors.

Antelope Hill Publishing is proud to present The Sixty-Year Caucasian War as a must-read for anyone interested in the intricacies of 19th century warfare, the nature of ethnic and religious struggle, and the enduring legacy of the Russian conquest of the Caucasus.

This recording examines in what sense and to what degree Scriptural prophecies have legitimate apologetic value and how they can be used properly in the contemporary defense of the faith.

    This remarkable book is the testimony of an itinerant evangelist whose only goal is to see people in India come to know his Lord and Savior. Through these pages, you will discover how a whole-hearted commitment to making Jesus known can overcome unimaginable obstacles, open the door to miracles, and provide God’s wisdom in the absence of mentors and instructors. 
    India is home to 94 percent of the world’s Hindus, and only 2 percent of its population call themselves Christian. Levon Canary Kom, born to a nominally Baptist, rural family, has been set aflame by God to share His truth and word wherever he might go. His passion has impelled him to press forward despite his lack of formal education and material resources. He describes himself professionally as a woodcutter, water carrier, wage laborer, and teacher of needy children, although as a self-taught English speaker, he also teaches English conversation and has taught in India’s schools. 
    Kom is upfront about mistakes and regrets and unsparing in his Bible-based commentary about the social, political, and religious systems he observes. This book will provide you the opportunity to understand more about village life in India and how access to a Bible can shape a life where there is no church. You’ll be uplifted, inspired, and challenged by this unusual story.

    In a chilling tale of soft power, corruption, and covert influence, Canada Under Siege pulls back the curtain on how the Chinese Communist Party quietly turned Prince Edward Island into a strategic forward operating base—right under the noses of Islanders and Ottawa alike.
    		 
    Drawing from a nearly two-year investigation by veteran intelligence officer and Chief of Asia Pacific (CSIS) Michel Juneau-Katsuya, former RCMP financial crime chief Garry Clement, and publisher Dean Baxendale, this groundbreaking exposé follows the money, the land grabs, the political manipulation, and the elites, captured or compromised.
    		This is not fiction. With whistleblower testimony, court documents, and explosive first-hand accounts stretching from Charlottetown to Taiwan, this book connects the dots between organized crime, espionage, elite capture, and Beijing’s United Front Work Department.
    		 
    What emerges is a damning picture of how one of the world’s most authoritarian regimes used immigration loopholes, Buddhist temples, and Anne of Green Gables to anchor its influence in Canada’s Prince Edward Island, the birthplace of Canadian Confederation. With China’s increased belligerence towards taking Taiwan by force, the authors show readers how the infiltration of Buddhist groups is playing a key role in the soft power dynamic in Taiwan and around the world, particularly as it relates to His Holiness the Dalai Lama and Tibetan Buddhism.
    		 
    Canada Under Siege is more than an exposé, it’s a warning. The threat is no longer at the gates. It’s already here. The time to act is now.
