Book excerpt: On November 11, 1918, World War I officially ended. But for the men of the ill-starred American Expeditionary Force to North Russia, the fighting had only begun. Plagued by meager supplies, poor leadership, and the lack of a clear-cut objective, this small but valiant American contingent fought impossible odds, scoring several stunning victories against the Bolsheviks before superior numbers and the bone-breaking arctic winter that had defeated Napoleon forced them to withdraw. Now, in the clear, forthright account, E.M. Halliday re-creates one of the most obscure but important of America's foreign interventions: an epic of confusion, endurance, failureand gallantrythat history almost forgot and the Russians never forgave. Perhaps the Russians have never forgotten these events? E. M. Halliday was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York, and attended Columbia University and the University of Michigan (where he got a Ph.D. in literature with a dissertation on the novels of Ernest Hemingway). During World War II he was an enlisted reporter for Army newspapers and a field correspondent for Yank, the Army magazine. From 1946 to 1962 he taught literature and history at the University of Michigan, the University of Chicago and North Carolina State. In 1951-1952 he was a Fulbright scholar in France. From 1963 to 1979 he was a senior editor with the history magazine, American Heritage.

Book excerpt: Doug Wilder's story is one even a Hollywood scriptwriter would be hard-pressed to imagine: A black candidate, given up for dead by many in his own party, wins election in the South, partly on the strength of votes from Appalachian mountaineers and low-country rednecks. But it happened. Doug wilder's stunning upset election as Lieutenant Governor of Virginia in 1985 marks a milestone in the South: Not only was Wilder the first black to win a statewide election in Virginia, he became the first black to win a statewide executive office in the South since Reconstruction. Wilder became the nation's highest-ranking black elected official -- and a serious contender for governor, an office that no black anywhere has ever won. Now one of the journalists who covered the 1985 campaign tells the behind-the-scenes story of how Wilder pulled off his remarkable upset. "When Hell Froze Over" offers a rare glimpse of how politics really works. -- From publisher's description.

Book excerpt: The unforgettable characters from the bestseller What Goes Around Comes Around are backin a smashingly suspenseful tale of love, trust, and the secrets that have the power to control our lives. The dashingly handsome Keaton Lapahie has watched many of his friends do the one thing he has vowed he will never do: get married. His plan is to enjoy his retirement, open a restaurant, and remain a bachelor for life. But when he is unexpectedly put on mandatory medical leave, he decides to visit his sister and her family, not realizing fate is about to take him on a trip—not just out of town, but toward his own heart. In Philadelphia, Keaton is reacquainted with Dr. Meridan St. John, his sister's pediatrician. Meridan is seemingly the perfect woman—smart, bold, and beautiful. But why can't Keaton attract her attention? He soon learns that Meridan is haunted by something in her past—and though Keaton can read her better than anyone else, he cannot figure out the cause of her nightmares and fears. Things become even more complicated when Jacob, her jealous childhood friend, arrives in Philadelphia and threatens to expose all the dark secrets of her past. Worried that Keaton will not believe she was innocent in her situation, she does the only thing she can—run. Thus, Keaton must decide: does he follow her and get to the truth, or does he leave the woman he loves to her own dark nightmares? Penetrating in language and powerful in meaning, When Hell Freezes Over is a remarkable story about how accepting the past is the only way to make a future.

Book excerpt: He has been described as “bold, brazen, and totally unabashed,” “one of a kind,” and “clearly a genius.” He won the Canadian figure-skating championships six times and brought back a bronze medal from the 1976 Winter Olympic Games. He revolutionized men’s figure skating, single-handedly transforming an athletic competition into a modern art form. He is an artist, celebrity, costume designer, broadcaster, choreographer of skating routines, coach, bon vivant, world traveller, art collector, legend, and enigma. And Toller Cranston has stories to tell. Like the time at Lake Placid when a woman drove her car directly into his bedroom and seduced him, and the groupie who broke into his house and waited for him naked except for a few strategically arranged rose petals. He writes about his encounters with the great and famous. (On meeting Joni Mitchell, for example, he asked, politely, “You sing, don’t you?”) With mixed feelings, he describes his reaction upon viewing a German-made pornographic film in which he played an unexpected part. This is not so much a sequel to Toller Cranston’s previous best-selling memoir,Zero Tollerance,as a companion volume. There are skating stories and stories from the world of art, there are stories of good times and of bad, high times and low. There are portraits of extraordinary people who have shaped and coloured his life, parting thoughts about his relationship with the management group IMG, about his own retirement, and about the condition of skating today. But this is chiefly an entertaining look back on the first half of an eventful, unusual life by a great Canadian artist and performer.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This novel could best be described as historical fiction since it is based on actual events that the author experienced firsthand during the year 1950 and uses both real and fictional characters as well as real and fictional events. Following the second war to end all wars, a group of young men stationed at Pearl Harbor, Hawaii, find themselves in a virtual land of enchantment. Though not exactly a murder mystery, the book begins with the investigation of the murders of two young boys that takes place at a now-defunct military base, Camp Catlin, on the island of Oahu. The narrative follows the exploits of these young marines, who eventually get caught up in an unexpected war in an unexpected place. There is mystery, romance, humor, camaraderie, deceit, betrayal, dilemma, death, hardship, and pain as the book shifts from part one in the tropical splendorous “heaven” of Hawaii to part two, in the frozen “hell” of war-torn South and North Korea. If you enjoy adventure filled with twists and turns, this is the book for you.

In the midst of an ageless war between the more powerful creatures in the world, Roth should see Lily as a weapon he must hone. If she’s to accomplish his destiny, she’ll have to be placed in harm’s way. But every time they touch, their chemistry drives him mad. Love or victory. They can’t possibly have both. In the clutches of the all-powerful ruler of Heaven, Raven has a choice: letting Ash risk his life for hers, or suffering the consequence of her betrayal. Everyone has lied to Lily, hiding her legacy, her duty. She’s the daughter of Lucifer and Lilith, the rightful heir of Hell, born thousands of years ago. But she also happens to be a twenty-something-year-old with barely enough training to keep herself alive, let alone rule anything. With her family in dire danger, she has to do whatever it takes to survive—and to protect Hell from Heaven’s wrath. Even if that means taking the Wicked Crown. When Hell Freezes over is the second book in the paranormal romance Wicked Crown trilogy. keywords: urban fantasy, paranormal romance, thriller, horror, heaven, hell, angels, demons, mystery, supernatural suspense, mythology, destinate mates, shifters, fallen angels

This book was released on 2011-06-30 with total page 307 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Bringing together recent scholarship on religion and the spatial imagination, Kristen Poole examines how changing religious beliefs and transforming conceptions of space were mutually informative in the decades around 1600. Supernatural Environments in Shakespeare's England explores a series of cultural spaces that focused attention on interactions between the human and the demonic or divine: the deathbed, purgatory, demonic contracts and their spatial surround, Reformation cosmologies and a landscape newly subject to cartographic surveying. It examines the seemingly incongruous coexistence of traditional religious beliefs and new mathematical, geometrical ways of perceiving the environment. Arguing that the late sixteenth- and early seventeenth-century stage dramatized the phenomenological tension that resulted from this uneasy confluence, this groundbreaking study considers the complex nature of supernatural environments in Marlowe's Doctor Faustus and Shakespeare's Othello, Hamlet, Macbeth and The Tempest.
