Summary

Forced Marches examines the pivotal role of extreme endurance marches in military history, revealing how they've been both decisive advantages and devastating liabilities. This exploration highlights that military operations often hinge on the physical capabilities of soldiers, turning the simple act of marching into a strategic weapon. The book emphasizes the human element, showcasing how successful marches could overwhelm defenses and seize key terrain, while failed ones led to exhaustion, disease, and ultimately, defeat.

 
The study focuses on the operational implementation of forced marches, the physiological and psychological demands on soldiers, and the historical consequences of these marches. The book explores historical examples like the Roman army's rapid deployments, American Civil War marches, and World War II's Eastern Front, systematically analyzing their planning, execution, and outcomes.

 
By combining historical analysis with insights into human endurance, Forced Marches provides a comprehensive understanding of this often-overlooked aspect of military history.

    When love becomes a battlefield, and the enemy wears the face of destiny. 
     
    Adam Dipietro thought he’d found his soulmate—a mysterious woman who spoke of karmic connections and cosmic purpose. But behind the tarot cards and astrological charts lay something far more dangerous: a sophisticated campaign of psychological warfare that would test the very foundations of his faith and sanity. 
     
    From Montreal's winter streets to Italy's sacred pilgrimage sites, The Codex of Shadows chronicles one man's descent into a web of manipulation disguised as spiritual destiny—and his extraordinary battle to reclaim his soul. 
     
    Part psychological thriller, part spiritual memoir, this unflinching account exposes how modern predators weaponize mysticism to override rational judgment. Through detailed documentation of gaslighting techniques, trauma bonding, and religious manipulation, it reveals the dark side of New Age spirituality while celebrating the authentic faith that ultimately provides liberation. 
     
    This is the story of how recognizing evil—whether supernatural or psychological—becomes the first step toward genuine spiritual freedom.

    Bestselling author Harriet Lerner focuses on the challenge and the importance of being able to express one's "authentic voice" in intimate relationships.The key problem in relationships, particularly over time, is that people begin to lose their voice. Despite decades of assertiveness training and lots of good advice about communicating with clarity, timing, and tact, women and men find that their greatest complaints in marriage and other intimate relationships are that they are not being heard, that they cannot affect the other person, that fights go nowhere, that conflict brings only pain. Although an intimate, long-term relationship offers the greatest possibilities for knowing the other person and being known, these relationships are also fertile ground for silence and frustration when it comes to articulating a true self. And yet giving voice to this self is at the center of having both a relationship and a self. Much as she did in THE MOTHER DANCE, Lerner will approach this rich subject with tales from her personal life and clinical work, inspiring and teaching readers to speak their own truths to the most important people in their lives.

    The Qabbalists conceive of the Supreme Deity as an Incomprehensible Principle to be discovered only through the process of eliminating, in order, all its cognizable attributes. That which remains--when every knowable thing has been removed--is AIN SOPH, the eternal state of Being. Although indefinable, the Absolute permeates all space. Abstract to the degree of inconceivability, AIN SOPH is the unconditioned state of all things. Substances, essences, and intelligences are manifested out of the inscrutability of AIN SOPH, but the Absolute itself is without substance, essence, or intelligence. AIN SOPH may be likened to a great field of rich earth out of which rises a myriad of plants, each different in color, formation, and fragrance, yet each with its roots in the same dark loam--which, however, is unlike any of the forms nurtured by it. The "plants" are universes, gods, and man, all nourished by AIN SOPH and all with their source in one definitionless essence; all with their spirits, souls, and bodies fashioned from this essence, and doomed, like the plant, to return to the black ground--AIN SOPH, the only Immortal--whence they came.

    A social history of alcoholism in the United States, from the seventeenth century to the present day 
    Today, millions of Americans are struggling with alcoholism, but millions are also in long-term recovery. Alcoholics Anonymous and a growing number of recovery organizations are providing support for alcoholics who will face the danger of relapse for the rest of their lives. We have finally come to understand alcoholism as a treatable illness, rather than a moral failure. Today’s advocates can draw inspiration from the victories of sober drunks throughout American history. 
    Christopher Finan recounts the nation’s history with alcohol and its search for sobriety, which began among Native Americans in the colonial period, when liquor was used to cheat them of their property. He introduces us to the first of a colorful cast of characters, a remarkable Iroquois leader named Handsome Lake, who dedicated his life to helping his people renounce hard liquor. And we meet Carrie Nation, the wife of an alcoholic who destroyed bars with an ax in her anger over what alcohol had done to her family, as well as the idealistic and energetic Washingtonians, reformed drunks who led the first national movement to save men like themselves. 
    Finan also tells the dramatic story of Bill Wilson and Dr. Bob Smith, the two drunks who helped each other stay sober and then created AA, which survived its tumultuous early years and has made it possible for millions of men and women to quit drinking. This is narrative history at its best: entertaining and authoritative, an important portrait of one of America’s great liberation movements.
