Sinossi

This is the second volume of a three-volume study of Scottish social change and development from the eighteenth century to the present day, originally published by John Donald in association with the Economic and Social History Society of Scotland.  The series covers the history of industrialisation and urbanisation in Scottish society and records many experiences which Scotland shared in common with other societies, looking at the impact of those changes throughout the spectrum of society from croft, bothy and hunting lodge to mines, foundries and urban poor houses.  The series is intended to illustrate the identity and distinctiveness of Scotland through its separate institutions and through areas such as language, law and religion and recognises Scotland as a multi-cultured society, the highland and lowland cultures being only two among several.

    Do you want to improve your life and be happy and successful? 
    Do you want to use the law of attraction to live your wildest dreams?This amazing book is a collection of positive affirmations made specifically for my beautiful black queens! 
    We often struggle with negative emotions like anxiety and low self esteem in our teens and adulthood when we have not done the work to heal our inner child and truly nurture our mental health. If you find that these sentiments resonate with you, you may have come to realize that its time to begin loving yourself. 
    But how? 
    Positive affirmations are incredibly underrated. What they do not do is radically transform your mindset overnight. What they do is bring a sense of intentionality into your self-love journey. They are a symbol of your intent to reach emotional freedom and peace. With consistency, you can and will reverse the thinking patterns that are causing you emotional harm. 
    Why will this book help? 
    The simple answer is that it will serve as a constant reminder of the power of words: the beautiful and affirming words you can tell yourself to raise your vibration. It will help you to stop getting in your own way. It will be there as your support as you go through your journey to achieve radical self-love and joy. Instead of self-sabotaging, pick up this book and give yourself a little reminder of who you are. 
    This book is the first step to start living the life of your dreams, order your copy and make yourself a priority!

    American Leftovers is the story of Heidi, Eric, and Shaun, three children who follow their parents through eastern Europe on Bible-smuggling adventures in the early 1970s. When they return to the States, they face third-culture questions of home and identity. They also deal with sexual situations and abuse, while settling into an evangelical bubble with their parents who pastor a fast-growing church. Everything collapses when their father runs off with an eighteen-year-old girl, leaving behind his family and church. This forces Heidi, Eric, and Shaun to reconcile their own spiritual fervor with the lies and dysfunction so close to home.

    Florida's Space Coast tells the compelling story of America's half century in space exploration from the successful launch of the first two-stage rocket in 1950 through the space shuttle missions of 2000. Told from the unique viewpoint of the people who built the Spaceport, this book shows how the space program transformed the east central Florida coast from a traditional citrus production and tourist area to one of the most influential high-tech centers in the nation. 
     
     
     
    Cape Canaveral was chosen as a missile launch site because of its many geographical advantages. However, in the early years of the space program, the area was far from an ideal place for NASA employees to raise their families. NASA brought in thousands of space-related workers, who, besides sending machines and people into space, had to meet the challenge of moving their families from urban environs to a rural southern county. This book engagingly recounts the parallel stories of the establishment of America's space program and its impact on the development of Brevard County.

    In Churchill's D-Day, Allen Packwood and Richard Dannatt narrate and analyze Sir Winston Churchill's emotional turmoil and epic decision-making before, during, and after the world-defining action of D-Day. Culled from the official Churchill Papers at the Churchill Archives Centre, the book features historical documents, letters, and more, for a Churchillian experience of D-Day leadership, military strategy, and humanity. 
     
     
     
    As dawn breaks on June 6th, 1944, the landings from the greatest armada of ships ever assembled begins at 0630hrs. Overnight paratroopers from the British 6th Airborne Division secure the eastern flank of the landing zone with the U.S. 82nd and 101st Airborne Division securing the western flank to reduce the risk of German counter attacks. 
     
      
     
    While Churchill is aware of the huge responsibility he bears for the British soldiers and French civilians, no one else in the world is aware of the conversations, innermost thoughts, deliberations, and decisions he's been making and will continue to make on this day. 
     
     
     
    Churchill's D-Day provides an unprecedented opportunity for listeners to experience the Invasion of Normandy as the British Bulldog experienced it himself.

    Stop worrying about taking notes, losing track of what you've learned or working out what to learn next. This course guides you through the Mandarin language step by step. Each new question adds a tiny building block to what you already know rather than introducing entirely new sentences and telling you to memorize them. Instead you can intuitively build up an understanding of the language through incremental logical steps.Each word introduced is repeated throughout the course using a spaced repetition system. That means first at roughly 10 seconds, then 30 seconds, 1 minute, 2 minutes, 5, 10, 20, 40, 1 hour etc until it becomes become fixed in your mind. Sentences throughout the course deliberately make use of vocabulary you learned earlier, so words are naturally revised without a deliberate focus on doing so.Grammar, tones and pronunciation are all taught but never drilled. Instead they are incorporated into each question.
