Download or read book Rustler s Vengeance written by Douglas Sipple and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2013-02-20 with total page 309 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exciting international espionage thriller, a continuation of the Rendman family exploits as Zelta joins forces with her brother, Joseph, and the CIA. They race through Cuba, Russia, Brazil and the United States in a perilous attempt to root out a deeply entrenched Soviet spy ring operating at the highest levels in the US, while avoiding Cuban Military Police and KGB assassins. Major American universities, the Naval Academy, even a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff are complicit in a twisted web of intrigue, espionage and stolen secrets. Beginning with pure vengeance for the slaughter of complete Russian and Cuban guerrilla communities and culminating in a one day CIA clean sweep of the multi-state spy cell, climaxing in a Florida orange grove estate—a last ditch all-out effort by the KGB to kill the Rendmans. “A terrific sequel that, if you can believe it, packs more thrills than Code Name Rustler. The action comes on with a vengeance and doesn’t let up. Like its predecessor, Rustler’s Vengeance puts the reader smack in the middle of what was the Western hemisphere’s hottest flash point.” -Jonathan Scott, author of Lenegrin and The Woman in the Wilderness-

Download or read book The Story of a Life written by Konstantin Paustovsky and published by New York Review of Books. This book was released on 2023-02-14 with total page 817 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: One of the most famous works of Russian literature, a memoir about a writer's coming of age during World War I, the Russian Civil War, and the rise of the Soviet era. This is the first unabridged translation of the first three books of Konstantin Paustovsky's magnum opus. In 1943, the Soviet author Konstantin Paustovsky started out on what would prove a masterwork, The Story of a Life, a grand, novelistic memoir of a life spent on the ravaged frontier of Russian history. Eventually expanding to fill six volumes, this extraordinary work of a lifetime would establish Paustovsky as one of Russia’s great writers and lead to a nomination for the Nobel Prize in Literature. Here the first three books of Paustovsky’s epic autobiography—long unavailable in English—appear in a splendid new translation by Douglas Smith. Taking the reader from Paustovsky’s Ukrainian youth, his family struggling on the verge of collapse, through the first stirrings of writerly ambition, to his experiences working as a paramedic on the front lines of World War I and then as a journalist covering Russia’s violent spiral into revolution, this vivid and suspenseful story of coming-of-age in a time of troubles is lifted by the energy and lyricism of Paustovsky’s prose and marked throughout by his deep love of the natural world. The Story of a Life is a dazzling achievement of modern literature.

Download or read book A Handbook on the Jewish Roots of the Christian Faith written by Craig Evans and published by Hendrickson Publishers. This book was released on 2021-04-18 with total page 375 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Handbook on the Jewish Roots of the Christian Faith is a comprehensive handbook that serves as an introduction to the Jewish roots of the Christian Faith. It includes Old Testament background, Second Temple Judaism, the life of Jesus, the New Testament, and the early Jewish followers of Jesus. It is intended as a resource for college and/or higher education. It is no longer a novelty to say that Jesus was a Jew. In fact, the term Jewish roots has become something of a buzzword in books, articles, and especially on the internet. But what does the Jewishness of Jesus actually mean, and why is it important? This collection of articles aims to address those questions and serve as a comprehensive yet concise primer on the Jewish roots of the Christian faith. It consists of thirteen chapters, most of which are divided into four or five articles. It is in a “handbook” format, meaning that each article is brief but informative. The thirteen chapters are grouped into four major sections: (1) The Soil, (2) The Roots, (3) The Trunk, and (4) The Branches. Craig A. Evans, PhD, DHabil, is the John Bisagno Distinguished Professor of Christian Origins at Houston Baptist University in Texas. He is a frequent contributor to scholarly journals and the author or editor of over seventy books. Evans resides in Houston, TX. David Mishkin, PhD, serves on the faculty of Israel College of the Bible in Netanya, Israel. He is the author of The Wisdom of Alfred Edersheim and Jewish Scholarship on the Resurrection of Jesus.

And, like many others, she is drawn to the mysterious, charismatic figure beginning to make a name for himself in the city: Rasputin. As the rebellion descends into anarchy and bloodshed, a commission to repair a priceless Stadivarius violin offers Inna a means of escape. But what man will she choose to take with her? And is it already too late? A magical and passionate story steeped in history and intrigue, Vanora Bennett's Midnight in St. Petersburg is an extraordinary novel of music, politics, and the toll that revolution exacts on the human heart.

Download or read book Hidden Truth in Plain Sight written by Kenny Brown and published by Home Life Publishing. This book was released on 2015-02-12 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Do you believe what you read, or do you read what you believe? Have you ever read a familiar passage of Scripture and suddenly noticed something you had never seen before? “Wow!” You may have asked, “Has that always been there?” Hidden Truth in Plain Sight explores this very notion – that profound truth has been right there on the pages of the Bible, yet continues to go unnoticed by its readers. Why? Filters. Christians tend to read the Bible through the filter of doctrines we have been taught and hold to be true, rather than simply reading the words on the page, considering the language, context, audience, and author. Do you desire to seek truth, even if it requires change? Are you willing to ask the hard questions, regardless of the answers? Are you ready to discover the Bible’s Hidden Truth in Plain Sight?

Download or read book Surveillance Valley written by Yasha Levine and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2018-02-06 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The internet is the most effective weapon the government has ever built. In this fascinating book, investigative reporter Yasha Levine uncovers the secret origins of the internet, tracing it back to a Pentagon counterinsurgency surveillance project. A visionary intelligence officer, William Godel, realized that the key to winning the war in Vietnam was not outgunning the enemy, but using new information technology to understand their motives and anticipate their movements. This idea -- using computers to spy on people and groups perceived as a threat, both at home and abroad -- drove ARPA to develop the internet in the 1960s, and continues to be at the heart of the modern internet we all know and use today. As Levine shows, surveillance wasn't something that suddenly appeared on the internet; it was woven into the fabric of the technology. But this isn't just a story about the NSA or other domestic programs run by the government. As the book spins forward in time, Levine examines the private surveillance business that powers tech-industry giants like Google, Facebook, and Amazon, revealing how these companies spy on their users for profit, all while doing double duty as military and intelligence contractors. Levine shows that the military and Silicon Valley are effectively inseparable: a military-digital complex that permeates everything connected to the internet, even coopting and weaponizing the antigovernment privacy movement that sprang up in the wake of Edward Snowden. With deep research, skilled storytelling, and provocative arguments, Surveillance Valley will change the way you think about the news -- and the device on which you read it.

But after falling desperately in love with her handler, Elizabeth makes another surprise discovery when she learns he is actually a Russian spy. Together, they will build the largest Soviet spy network in America and Elizabeth will become its uncrowned Red Spy Queen. However, once the war ends and the U.S. and U.S.S.R. become embroiled in the Cold War, it is Elizabeth who will dangerously clash with the NKVD, the brutal Soviet espionage agency. As Catherine listens to Elizabeth's harrowing tale, she discovers that the women's lives are linked in shocking ways. Faced with the idea that her entire existence is based on a lie, Catherine realizes that only Elizabeth Bentley can tell her what the truth really is.
