    The thrilling story of a pioneering conservationist working with dogs to protect wildlife from poachers.
    Conraad de Rosner is one of the first game rangers to focus on working with specially trained dogs to protect wildlife from poachers – both 'bushmeat' poachers, who use cruel snares to trap animals, and criminal syndicates killing for rhinoceros horn and capturing critically endangered pangolins, the most trafficked animal in the world.
    Con's life – constantly at risk from poachers, wildlife and even his own fellow rangers – has been saved on numerous occasions by his devoted canine companions. His first dog, Zingela, a Weimaraner, saved Con from near certain death at the hands of two fellow rangers; on another occasion, Zingela alerted Con to a concealed wounded buffalo, one of Africa's most dangerous animals, about to charge.
    When Zingela was tragically killed, hit by a car while Con was away, the only meagre consolation was that Con had kept Landa, one of the nine puppies sired by Zingela. Landa followed in his father's footsteps as the leader of the canine anti-poaching team that is still operating today. Con's story is an epic of modern-day African wildlife conservation, filled with courage, adventure and romance.

    "In a world of cold calculation, can a heart of fire survive?"
    
    Born the son of a provincial carpenter, Julien Sorel is possessed by a brilliant mind and a dangerous obsession with Napoleon Bonaparte. Realizing that the "Red" path of military glory is closed to him in the stagnant era of the Bourbon Restoration, he chooses the "Black" path of the clergy as a means to power. Julien's journey takes him from the bedchambers of provincial nobility to the glittering salons of Paris, as he maneuvers through a society where hypocrisy is the only language spoken fluently. Caught between his genuine passion for the gentle Madame de Rênal and his intellectual fascination with the haughty Mathilde de la Mole, Julien finds that the climb to the top is paved with secrets that could lead to his ultimate downfall.
    
    The "Red" vs. the "Black": The title serves as a perfect metaphor for Julien's internal conflict. The "Red" represents the lost glory of the battlefield and the meritocracy of the Empire, while the "Black" represents the mourning clothes of the Church and the subtle, often corrupt, influence of the priesthood. Julien is a hero who plays a part he despises to achieve a status he craves.
    
    A Pioneer of Psychology: Stendhal was one of the first novelists to focus intensely on "inner monologue." He provides a window into Julien's constant self-analysis and strategic thinking, revealing the anxiety and pride that drive every move. It is a remarkably modern look at how we construct our identities to fit the expectations of others.
    
    Why It Is a Literary Essential: The Red and the Black is the ultimate "outsider" novel. It speaks to anyone who has ever felt like they were watching life from the sidelines, planning their entry. It is a thrilling, tragic, and bitingly funny critique of a society that rewards the mask more than the man.
    
    Witness the rise and fall of Julien Sorel. Purchase "The Red and the Black" today.
