  Egyptian Warfare - Battles...

  In the earliest periods of Ancient Egypt, military organization was relatively simplistic, reflecting the needs of a society transitioning from small, independent communities to a unified state. During the Predynastic and Early Dynastic periods, military efforts were often led by local chieftains or emerging kings, whose power was consolidated through the control of small, regional armies. These early forces primarily consisted of able-bodied men called upon when conflicts arose, rather than a standing army.  
  The unification of Upper and Lower Egypt under King Narmer marked a significant turning point in the military structure. With this unification came the need for more organized military strategies to maintain control over the expansive territories. The pharaoh, regarded as both a political and military leader, played a central role in directing military campaigns and defending borders. Early depictions on palettes and reliefs show the pharaoh as a warrior, symbolizing strength and divine authority in battle. This image was crucial in asserting dominance and maintaining internal order. 
  Weapons used during this time were relatively basic, often crafted from stone, wood, and copper. Warriors wielded maces, spears, and simple bows, which were effective in close combat and hunting but limited in more advanced warfare. Shields made from animal hides provided some defense, but armor was scarce, as mobility remained more valued than heavy protection. Chariots, which would later become integral to Egyptian military prowess, had not yet been introduced, and combat primarily involved foot soldiers engaging in skirmishes.

  Tele Aadsen met the ocean as a child when her parents traded jobs as veterinarians for a migratory life shared with sea birds, salmon, and fishermen. In the mist of the Tongass rainforest, Tele learned to explore life within endless shades of gray, coming to know firsthand how fine the line between life and death and the precarious balance of sea, land, and sky. She’s spent the four decades since trolling for salmon off Southeast Alaska. 
  In What Water Holds, a series of lyrical essays first shared at Oregon’s FisherPoets Gathering, Tele examines questions of equity, identity, community, the changing climate, and sustainability with loving, detailed attention, revealing the complexities within their many shades of gray. Weaving stories of what lies beneath the surface and the possibilities beyond, What Water Holds speaks to anyone who has fallen under the spell of the sea, struggled to find their own uncharted path, and wrestled with big philosophical questions – in short, anyone seeking to live a full, deeply considered life.  
  “In this beautiful, brave, knowledgeable collection, Aadsen invites us to examine an industry with clear eyes. Her recollections are rich and poignant, and her eye for social critique is unwavering as she lays bare the complexities of fishing life. Gender, death, power, history, relationships, and the natural world all come under her gaze and are shared with ruthless love.”

  The Passenger: Ireland

  Passenger The

  The best new writing, photography, art, and reportage from and about Ireland—in the series that’s “like a literary vacation” (Publishers Weekly). 
   
  Ireland is a land full of charm and conflict, a country that in just a few decades has gone from being a poor, semi-theocratic society to a thriving economy free from the influence of the Catholic Church. With the 1998 peace agreements, the conflict between nationalists and unionists seemed, if not resolved, at least dormant. But Brexit—with the ambiguous position it leaves Northern Ireland in—caused old tensions to resurface, with ramifications in politics, society, culture, and sport. 
   
  Meanwhile, south of the border, epochal transformation has seen a deeply patriarchal, conservative society give space to diversity, the only country in the world to enshrine gay marriage in law through a referendum. And there’s a whole other Ireland abroad, an Irish diaspora that looks to the old country with newfound pride but doesn’t forget the ugliness it fled from. 
   
  Memory and identity intertwine with the transformations—from globalization to climate change—that are remodeling the Irish landscape, from the coastal communities under threat of disappearing along with the Irish language fishermen use to talk about the sea, inland the peat bogs, until recently important sources of energy and jobs, are being abandoned. Pieces in this collection include: 
   
  The mass is ended by Catherine Dunne and Caelainn Hogan · The Way Back by Colum McCann · A Trip to Westeros by Mark O’Connell · Plus: life on the margins of two unions and right in the middle of Brexit, making war on each other for thirty years while playing on the same national rugby team, emigrating to the great enemy or transforming the country one referendum at a time, digging peat bogs and building cottages, talking of the sea in Gaelic, and much more . . .  
   
  “These books are so rich and engrossing that it is rewarding to read them even when one is stuck at home.” —The Times Literary Supplement
