  Beyond The Game: A Rowing Romance (Varsity Hearts Athletics, Short Story) 
  Two rowing rivals, a sweaty London locker room, and a tension so thick it could sink a scull. 
  Freddy, a disciplined, senior-squad rower and corporate architect, lives by the clock: 5 AM training, tight work deadlines, and zero emotional distractions. When his intense focus is broken by a gorgeous blonde guy in an upscale Richmond café, Freddy’s perfect schedule is thrown overboard. 
  Andy, a semi-pro photographer with a knack for trouble, is new to the development rowing squad. He should be focused on proving his athletic worth, but all his attention—and his most explicit fantasies—are suddenly focused on the beautiful, snobbish rower he keeps accidentally flashing. 
  Their lives clash when Andy’s leg brushes Freddy’s under a table at a swanky Fulham bar, turning a casual drink into a high-stakes game of seduction. From judging PEI oysters and Tattinger champagne to revealing explicit photography on a phone screen, the lines between rivalry and reckless lust blur completely. 
  They’re teammates. They’re competitors. And in the damp, secretive corners of the boat club, they might just become each other's dirtiest secret. 
  If you love sizzling tension, high-stakes sport, and unexpected encounters, grab this fast-paced, high-heat short story. It's the perfect taste of what happens when two athletes let their desire run wild.

  "In the following pages I have endeavoured to give the reader a plain, honest, homespun account of my state in life, and some few of the difficulties which have attended me along its journey, down to this time. I am perfectly aware, that I have related many small and, as I fear, uninteresting circumstances; but if so, my apology is, that it was rendered necessary by a desire to link the different periods of my life together, as they have passed, from my childhood onward, and thereby to enable the reader to select such parts of it as he may relish most, if, indeed, there is any thing in it which may suit his palate."

  Oceans of Grain - How American...

  An "incredibly timely" global history journeys from the Ukrainian steppe to the American prairie to show how grain built and toppled the world's largest empires (Financial Times). To understand the rise and fall of empires, we must follow the paths traveled by grain—along rivers, between ports, and across seas. In Oceans of Grain, historian Scott Reynolds Nelson reveals how the struggle to dominate these routes transformed the balance of world power. Early in the nineteenth century, imperial Russia fed much of Europe through the booming port of Odessa, on the Black Sea in Ukraine. But following the US Civil War, tons of American wheat began to flood across the Atlantic, and food prices plummeted. This cheap foreign grain spurred the rise of Germany and Italy, the decline of the Habsburgs and the Ottomans, and the European scramble for empire. It was a crucial factor in the outbreak of the First World War and the Russian Revolution. A powerful new interpretation, Oceans of Grain shows that amid the great powers’ rivalries, there was no greater power than control of grain.“American cotton changed the world in the first half of the nineteenth century, American wheat in its second half. Scott Reynolds Nelson’s globe-spanning exploration of the powers of a humble grain to topple empires, enable industrialization, build cities, and redirect trade flows is the kind of commodity history one wishes for: attentive to politics, connected as well as comparative in perspective, and with a knack for telling details. After reading this fast-paced book, the wars, revolutions, and empires of the nineteenth century will never seem the same.”―Sven Beckert, author of Empire of Cotton
