Download or read book Hitler s War written by Harry Turtledove and published by Del Rey. This book was released on 2009-08-04 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stroke of the pen and history is changed. In 1938, British prime minister Neville Chamberlain, determined to avoid war, signed the Munich Accord, ceding part of Czechoslovakia to Hitler. But the following spring, Hitler snatched the rest of that country, and England, after a fatal act of appeasement, was fighting a war for which it was not prepared. Now, in this thrilling alternate history, another scenario is played out: What if Chamberlain had not signed the accord? In this action-packed chronicle of the war that might have been, Harry Turtledove uses dozens of points of view to tell the story: from American marines serving in Japanese-occupied China and ragtag volunteers fighting in the Abraham Lincoln Battalion in Spain to an American woman desperately trying to escape Nazi-occupied territory—and witnessing the war from within the belly of the beast. A tale of powerful leaders and ordinary people, at once brilliantly imaginative and hugely entertaining, Hitler’s War captures the beginning of a very different World War II—with a very different fate for our world today. BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Harry Turtledove's The War that Came Early: West and East.

Download or read book He Came First written by Rod Parsley and published by HarperChristian + ORM. This book was released on 2008-07-13 with total page 172 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ask any person to name the first man to walk on the moon, and most can tell you it was Neil Armstrong. And almost anyone could tell you Charles Lindberg made the first solo transatlantic flight. Few would know that Sir Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay first successfully scaled Mt. Everest, but our admiration is no less because we don't remember their names. As a society, we reward, revere, and respect firsts and the courageous men and women who achieve them. Rod Parsley calls these individuals breakers. "Breakers look at barriers as merely building blocks to further feats of achievement," Parsley writes. "They refuse to take life at face value, believing that greatness lies beyond the next barrier. With fierce determination and fearless courage, they break through what others believed was impenetrable." Parsley contends that God is raising a modern generation of breakers to achieve His purposes. We have the perfect model in Jesus Christ, the "First of all firsts" who shattered the barrier between divinity and humanity, proving Himself to be "the Breaker who goes before us." Through Scripture and insight, Rod Parsley passionately urges Christians to break out in obedience and become modern-day Samsons, Deborahs, Esthers, and Stephens.

Download or read book Gloucester written by Nubar Alexanian and published by . This book was released on 2016-05-05 with total page 116 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the summer of 1979 Nubar Alexanian stepped aboard the vessel Joseph and Lucia II for ten days of fishing on Georges Bank with the Brancaleone family of Gloucester, Massachusetts and their crew. More trips followed in 1980 and 1981, and the photographs taken on those voyages form the heart of this book. They show the photographer's intimate connection with his subjects, and with Gloucester itself.The sea gives and it takes; fishermen and their families look mortality in the face every working day. We cannot say what gives the people of Gloucester their determination and perseverance, but photographs capture the spirit when words cannot, and they can make time and tide stand still. When Alexanian was taking photographs aboard the Joseph and Lucia II, he was documenting a way of life that would soon slip away and never return. His photographs lay bare the heart of a city that literally and figuratively faces the sea, its most enduring ally and its nemesis. He has chronicled both life at sea and the upland rhythms of Gloucester in images taken over a period of four decades, weaving from Georges Bank through the streets and woods, beaches and baptisms, the granite and the granite-willed. In these images of day-to-day life, of rituals, celebrations, and the ever-changing landscape, people coexist with nature's bounties and uncertainties as they have for hundreds of years.Gloucester: When the Fish Came Fish is as much an invitation as a documentary work. Alexanian's photographs reveal the spirit of this place and the strength of her people. Complex and ruggedly beautiful, they honor Gloucester's enigmatic soul, her resilient spirit, and her hard-won character. Against all odds, this is a place that continues to believe in itself.
