Synopsis

Medieval Castles explores the multifaceted world of medieval fortifications, examining their architecture, military significance, and social impact in Western Europe. The book highlights how these structures were not just military strongholds but also centers of daily life, reflecting the social hierarchy from lords and ladies to knights and servants. Intriguingly, the evolution of castle design, from the early motte-and-bailey constructions to the more complex concentric castles, showcases medieval engineering ingenuity.

 
The book progresses through three sections, beginning with the evolution of castle design and then transitioning to detailed analyses of siege warfare, including tactics like mining and the use of trebuchets.

 
Finally, it delves into the routines and social structures within the castle walls, shedding light on food production, justice administration, and the roles of various inhabitants. By integrating historical records, architectural analysis, and archaeological findings, Medieval Castles provides a comprehensive understanding of these iconic structures and their impact on medieval society and military strategy.

    Growing up as an adoptee and identical twin, Julie McGue will take you on her journey for identity and individuality, searching for answers through tragedy and adversity. 
    “A heartfelt exploration of connection, community, and the unbreakable bond between sisters . . . Her journey beautifully reminds us of the strength we find within ourselves as we seek to uncover where we truly belong.”— Simone Knego, author of The Extraordinary UnOrdinary You 
    In this coming-of-age memoir, set in Chicago’s western suburbs between the 1960s and ’80s, adopted twins Julie and Jenny provide their parents with an instant family. Their sisterly bond holds tight as the two strive for identity, individuality, and belonging. But as Julie’s parents continue adding children to the family, some painful and tragic experiences test family values, parental relationships, and sibling bonds. 
    Faced with these hurdles, Julie questions everything—who she is, how she fits in, her adoption circumstances, her faith, and her idea of family. But the life her parents have constructed is not one she wants for herself—and as she matures, she recognizes how the experiences that formed her have provided her a road map for the person and mother she wants to be.

    Alexander Rosenberg was a smart and curious teenager who spoke many languages, collected stamps, played the violin, and lived a pampered life with his affluent parents in a tranquil Czechoslovakian town. The rise of fascism and Nazi Germany causes his protected existence to collapse, alongside the illusion of secular Jewish assimilation in 1930s Europe. 
     
     
     
    Using their last reserves of wealth and influence to escape extermination, the Rosenbergs go underground to avoid the Gestapo. Eventually exposed, captured, and taken to Buchenwald, the largest concentration camp in Germany, Alexander and his father collaborate to survive one day at a time. A chaotic chain of events puts young Alexander at the heart of a massive armament sabotage scheme. When his father is gravely injured and disappears after an air bombing, it is up to industrious Alexander to create leverage and use wartime machinations and raw talent to save his father's life. 
     
     
     
    This universal, true story of inner strength, resourcefulness and optimism was documented and written by Alexander's grandson, Oren Schneider. It is dedicated to brave people everywhere who choose not to give up.
