Book excerpt: The beautiful Princess Tanafriti, beloved daughter of Pharaoh Merenptah of Egypt, awakens one blissful morning to find that her life of privilege does not come without a price. The burden of a title means she is to be made a bride to a former enemy in order to keep a peaceful alliance between her father's empire and King Solomon's growing kingdom. Understanding the depth of her duty, Tanafriti journeys to Jerusalem with personal maids and guardsmen in tow, including her true love, Kam. The transition is not an easy one, as there are several Israelites who believe bringing a gentile into the sacred land of David the Great is blasphemous to God.The future of the kingdom now rests in King Solomon's hands, offering stresses of its own despite his divine wisdom as he waits in anguish for his bride. 'She of the Beautiful Land' is to be with him soon, and he longs for his wife. When the betrothed meet, the prior struggles are minimized by yet more religious opposition, but genuine love prevails. Solomon's desire for Tanafriti inspires the royal palacea "the only one built for any of his thousand wives. When their marriage fails to produce a male heir, Solomon leaves Tanafriti in distress and Kam to decipher his newfound role in Solomon's guard. New Hebrew and Danite friends and a miracle in the new temple prompt the princess to resign pagan rituals and follow the living God. Her faith brings wisdom, just like her husband's, and motivates her to encourage the Queen of Sheba with insight into the king, as well as offer guidance to Solomon. Through it all, a remarkable journey awaits the lives of all as an ultimate plan from a higher power strategically makes way into two kingdoms and two hearts vying for power and romance."

Book excerpt: What happened to Brigitte Berthold? That question has haunted Daniel Knight since he was thirteen, when he and ten-year-old Brigitte escaped the Gestapo agents who arrested both their parents. They survived a harrowing journey from Germany to England, only to be separated upon their arrival. Daniel vowed to find Brigitte after the war, a promise he has fought to fulfill for more than seventy years. Now a wealthy old man, Daniel’s final hope in finding Brigitte rests with Quenby Vaughn, an American journalist working in London. He believes Quenby’s tenacity to find missing people and her personal investment in a related WWII espionage story will help her succeed where previous investigators have failed. Though Quenby is wrestling her own demons—and wary at the idea of teaming up with Daniel’s lawyer, Lucas Hough—the lure of Brigitte’s story is too much to resist. Together, Quenby and Lucas delve deep into the past, following a trail of deception, sacrifice, and healing that could change all of their futures. A 2018 Christy Award finalist!

Book excerpt: Fern dreams of riding on a wild horse's back, as fleet as the wind. She makes pets of small animals and watches the bison herds as they pound over the endless grasses of the steppe. Chafing at the inequality of being female, she longs for the freedom her twin brother enjoys to run free in the wilderness. One day in early spring, Fern secretly rescues a young horse mired in the bog, names her Thunder, and tames her enough to ride. But the people of her tribe are distrustful of her bond with nature. Is she a witch? Fern's future looks bleak until a silent man in a rival tribe, known only as The Nameless One, teaches her about patience—and love. Susan Williams's lyrical prose makes this journey to prehistoric western Asia at once inspiring and heart wrenching.

Download or read book Hidatsa Social and Ceremonial Organization written by Alfred W. Bowers and published by . This book was released on 1965 with total page 562 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Hidatsa Social and Ceremonial Organization, a study of an important horticultural Plains Indian tribe, synthesizes the rich material Alfred W. Bowers recorded in the early 1930s from the last generation of Hidatsas who lived in the historic village of Like-a-Fishhook. This documentary record of their nineteenth-century lifeways is now a classic in American ethnography. The book is distinguished for its presentation of extensive personal and ritual narratives that allow Hidatsa elders to articulate directly their conceptions of traditional culture. It combines archeological and ethnographic approaches to reconstruct a Hidatsa culture history that is shaped by a concern for cultural detail stemming from the American ethnographic tradition of Franz Boas. At the same time, its concern for the understanding of social structure reflects the influence of the British structural-functional approach of A. R. Radcliffe-Brown. The most comprehensive account ever published on the Hidatsas, it is of enduring value and interest.
