Download or read book Memoirs of a Stormy Life written by Harry Altman and published by iUniverse. This book was released on 2000 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The personal autobiography of a World War II survivor taking us from the pre-WWI days of life in the Jewish Ghettos of Poland through the horrors of Nazi invasion, and “escape” to the unbearable hardships of Soviet enslavement. A part of the history of WWII that has yet to be reported on anywhere in the annals of the Holocaust era. The complicity of the Soviets in the exploitation of the Jewish refugees who escaped the clutches of the Nazis is yet another shameful chapter in the history of barbarism in the 20th century. Harry Altman's story is an everlasting monument to the indomitable human spirit in the face of unimaginable adversity.

Download or read book Stormy Weather written by James Gavin and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2009-06-23 with total page 619 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At long last, the first serious biography of entertainment legend Lena Horne -- the celebrated star of film, stage, and music who became one of the first African-American icons. At the 2001 Academy Awards, Halle Berry thanked Lena Horne for paving the way for her to become the first black recipient of a Best Actress Oscar. Though limited, mostly to guest singing appearances in splashy Hollywood musicals, "the beautiful Lena Horne," as she was often called, became a pioneering star for African Americans in the 1940s and fifties. Now James Gavin, author of Deep in a Dream: The Long Night of Chet Baker, draws on a wealth of unmined material and hundreds of interviews -- one of them with Horne herself -- to give us the defining portrait of an American icon. Gavin has gotten closer than any other writer to the celebrity who has lived in reclusion since 1998. Incorporating insights from the likes of Ruby Dee, Tony Bennett, Diahann Carroll, Arthur Laurents, and several of Horne's fellow chorines from Harlem's Cotton Club, Stormy Weather offers a fascinating portrait of a complex, even tragic Horne -- a stunning talent who inspired such giants of showbiz as Barbra Streisand, Eartha Kitt, and Aretha Franklin, but whose frustrations with racism, and with tumultuous, root-less childhood, left wounds too deep to heal. The woman who emerged was as angry as she was luminous. From the Cotton Club's glory days and the back lots of Hollywood's biggest studios to the glitzy but bigoted hotels of Las Vegas's heyday, this behind-the-scenes look at an American icon is as much a story of the limits of the American dream as it is a masterful, ground-breaking biography.

With her power over magic finally in hand, and her love for Cielo at last confessed, Teodora di Sangro should be on top of the world. But the country of Vinalia is in chaos as the dictator like Capo threatens to plunge them all into war and capture every strega in the land--including Teo and Cielo. Teo knows she can't take down the Capo alone. She must convince a small band of streghe who have been hiding in plain sight to join her in the cause. But as she struggles to bring them together, she discovers a far deadlier enemy than the Capo has been hunting her all along. Now everyone--especially Cielo--is in danger. What lengths will Teo go to in order to unite her country and save the one she loves?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Memoirs from a Stormy Passage shares the story of author Mandy Innis's life with her son, Storm, describing a passage of her life that brought great pain but also great joy. After years of wanting a child and three failed in vitro fertilization attempts, she managed to naturally conceive and give birth to a son. After three precious months of happiness at the long-anticipated gift of Storm, Mandy and her husband faced devastating heartbreak when they learned their son was blind. But before she could adjust to her son's blindness, more medical conditions were diagnosed, all in the midst of their disintegrating marriage. Even so, Mandy didn't allow herself to wallow in self-pity, as her maternal instincts demanded that she step up to the challenge of doing what was best for her son. An inner knowledge told her there would be worse to come, and her son would need as much help as she could give. Storm was blind, the only word he could say was mum, and he couldn't walk unaided because his legs were failing him. Even so, he loved unconditionally, laughed loudly and showed Mandy how to live in the moment, to stop and listen. She now shares their story, as well as the ways in which a small, semi-rural town welcomed them, supported Mandy in her endeavour to help her son, and brought happiness to mother and child.

Download or read book Life Study of Genesis written by Witness Lee and published by Living Stream Ministry. This book was released on 1987-12-01 with total page 972 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the Lord’s recovery during the past five hundred years the church’s knowledge of the Lord and His truth has been continually progressing. This monumental and classical work by Brother Witness Lee builds upon and is a further development of all that the Lord has revealed to His church in the past centuries. It is filled with the revelation concerning the processed Triune God, the living Christ, the life-giving Spirit, the experience of life, and the definition and practice of the church. In this set Brother Lee has kept three basic principles that should rule and govern every believer in their interpretation, development, and expounding of the truths contained in the Scriptures. The first principle is that of the Triune God dispensing Himself into His chosen and redeemed people; the second principle is that we should interpret, develop, and expound the truths contained in the Bible with Christ for the church; and the third governing principle is Christ, the Spirit, life, and the church. No other study or exposition of the New Testament conveys the life nourishment or ushers the reader into the divine revelation of God’s holy Word according to His New Testament economy as this one does.
