"An impressive blend of historical portrayal and dramatic fiction" --Kirkus ReviewsThe events and characters of this novel series are based on the writings of the first-century, Roman-Jewish historian Flavius Josephus.The First Jewish Revolt against Rome in the first century led to the destruction of Jerusalem and its Temple, and to the rise of Christianity and modern Judaism. Now for the first time, ancient eyewitness accounts have been transformed into a series of suspense-laden novels, letting you enter the lives of the men and women involved on both sides. You get to experience their fears and hopes and dreams as they are forced to confront life and death and the meaning of their lives on a daily basis. This is an epic story you that will keep you engaged and wanting to read more!In Book 1-Resisting Tyranny, you meet the cast of main characters as they struggle to survive when their ship is capsized in a storm in the middle of the Adriatic. On arrival in Rome, they must face the whims of an emperor and the great fire that almost consumes the city. Once in Jerusalem, evil forces seek to ignite a rebellion as our friends try to hold together a fragile status quo. As open warfare erupts, the Romans realize they have greatly underestimated their foe.In Book 2-Against All Odds, the enthusiasm following a Jewish victory quickly erodes as they see the empire planning to strike back. Returning with a more experienced leader and in much greater numbers, the Romans first attack Galilee. There at the siege of the fortified headquarters, our friends find themselves on opposite sides. Visions and an escape from certain death lead to capture and imprisonment, while in Judea an escape from evil leads to an uncertain future.In Book 3-Growing Anarchy, Jerusalem begins to unravel with fear as competing rebel leaders vie for control of the city. Romance compels a trip to the far reaches of the Empire, where aide is sought from a politician with rising ambitions for the imperial throne. His favor may be the only hope of an escape from behind enemy lines in Jerusalem. Meanwhile our heroine, turned assassin, has found that killing enemy spies can mean killing friends, yielding a vengeance more bitter than sweet.In Book 4-Final Siege, Rome finds itself in its own civil war with emperors lasting for months, not decades. Jerusalem continues to suffer under rival factions whose self-serving leaders refuse to unite. Their failure suddenly comes into sharp focus when the Romans arrive to a city with empty food stores. Fierce battles accompany a long siege, and starvation leads to acts of desperation. A last-minute plea for peace fails, and friends must look for meaning to what fate has delivered."The story sweeps across a first-century world that's diverse, gritty, and laced with tension. . . . Everything is supported by an incredibly well-researched foundation. The time period and social customs are delightfully developed... there is political and religious strife, moments of ancient beauty, and well-developed characters to carry the plot forward."--Historical Novels Review February 2020"The plot is as gripping as it is historically edifying, remarkably authentic, and rigorously researched. At its conclusion, readers will be left impatient for the book's sequel. An impressive blend of historical portrayal and dramatic fiction."--Kirkus Reviews June 2020Amazon Reviewer★★★★★ The characters are so well developed that you feel for them, hope for them; in some cases you hate them, in others you love them! I especially appreciate the variety of main characters-peaceful Jewish believers, extremists, sympathetic non-Jews, those in the ruling classes, soldiers, etc.

The Final Solution, first published in 1953, is an authoritative account of the Nazi's systematic plan to exterminate Jews (and other groups) in the 1930s until the end of World War II in 1945. The book traces the beginnings of the Holocaust and the Nazi pogroms against the Jews-the Nuremburg Laws, the Week of Broken Glass, the ghettos and deportations-to the extermination camps and gas chambers of Auschwitz, and Nazi actions throughout Russia, western Europe and the Balkans. Appendices detail Reitlinger's estimates of the final death toll (although some of Reitlinger's figures are considered overly conservative today) and describe the fate of leading participants in "the final solution."Gerald Reitlinger (1900-1978) was an art historian and author of several books on the Nazi period, and served in the British army during the war. Today, The Final Solution remains one of the most objective and best-documented sources on the Holocaust.

THE WAR CRIMES committed by General William T. Sherman and his men against Southern civilians and their means of sustaining life are a huge stain on the American national character. Sherman's crimes are routinely denied or minimized (by those who don't actually celebrate them), although they are as heavily documented, from Northern as well as Southern sources, as any event in history. Sherman's campaign through Georgia and South Carolina is even cited as a brilliant military feat. In fact, it was not a military feat at all. There was very little fighting. It was a massive campaign of terrorism against civilians. It violated international law and hypocritically deviated widely from officially-declared U.S. policy. A LEGION OF DEVILS: SHERMAN IN SOUTH CAROLINA adds more very interesting original sources to the published record of U.S. War Crimes. The book also features a timeline documenting most of the significant incidents of January through March 1865, when South Carolina's home front became a war front for thousands of civilians.Charlestonian KAREN STOKES enjoys unsurpassed knowledge of the first-hand sources that document South Carolina during the War between the States. She has been prolific in sharing her knowledge both as historian and novelist. Her works of both kinds give a rich picture of the "faith, valour, and devotion" of the South Carolinians who, in time of ruthless invasion, steadfastly endured the greatest sacrifice and suffering that any large group of Americans have ever experienced.Stokes's previous books (history and fiction) include Faith, Valor, and Devotion; A Confederate Englishman; Honor in the Dust; The Immortals: A Story of Love and War; Days of Destruction; South Carolina Civilians in Sherman's Path; The Immortal 600; The Soldier's Ghost: A Tale of Charleston; Belles: A Carolina Love Story; and Confederate South Carolina.***This title is enrolled in Kindle MatchBook.

Ο Στας Παράσκος (1933-2014), γεννημένος στην Αναφωτία της Λάρνακας, ήταν ένας από τους μεγαλύτερους Κύπριους ζωγράφους και δασκάλους της ζωγραφικής του εικοστού αιώνα.Κατά τη διετία 1956-1958 παρακολούθησε μαθήματα ζωγραφικής στο Leeds Arts University και στη συνέχεια εργάστηκε στο Ηνωμένο Βασίλειο, ως λέκτορας στο Τμήμα Προπτυχιακών Σπουδών του De Montfort University, και στο Τμήμα Ζωγραφικής του University for Creative Arts. Το 1969 επέστρεψε στην Κύπρο και ίδρυσε στην Αμμόχωστο το Κυπριακό Κολέγιο Τέχνης.Έργα του Παράσκου βρίσκονται σε διάφορες συλλογές της Βρετανίας, όπως στην Tate Gallery του Λονδίνου, στην Πινακοθήκη του Λιντς, στο Πανεπιστήμιο του Λιντς και στο Συμβούλιο Τεχνών της Αγγλίας, καθώς επίσης στην Κύπρο, στην Ελλάδα, στις ΗΠΑ, στον Καναδά και στη Δανία.Σύμφωνα με τον ιστορικό και συγγραφέα Νόρμπερτ Λύντον Ο Παράσκος είναι ένας εκλεπτυσμένος καλλιτέχνης, που σπούδασε στη Δύση, έχοντας ρίζες στην Ανατολή. Στην τέχνη του κατάφερε να συνδυάσει με επιτυχία τις εικαστικές παραδόσεις του δυτικού μοντερνισμού με τις παραδόσεις της Βυζαντινής Ορθοδοξίας.

Set in newly-independent Kenya, Lord Kitchener is the story of 'two worlds', epitomized by Ombam and Engineer Okwach, and buttressed by an eclectic mix of social and political growing pains of a young nation. Ombam is focused on education, childhood games, sickness and the like. Engineer Okwach's are high-class socio-political and economic problems that bedevil the young African nation.Concerned with political expediency, despite his education, Okwach is unashamed of political sycophancy and material aggrandizement under an autocratic regime that tramples upon citizens' rights and freedoms. It is an environment that is a graveyard of independence-era aspirations where detentions without trial and opponent assassinations are the norm. Unfavourable circumstances (greed and social stratification) mean that Ombam discontinues his schooling early, and endures many challenges that life throws at him. His education is left waiting till much later in life. Will either of the two succeed? You, the reader, be the judge.

दुनियाँ ते न्यारासारी दुनियाँ ते न्यारा।अए हिमाचल म्हारा।।प्रिय दर्शनी इंदिरा...इंदिरा तू औरत नहीं शेर थी।कायर नहीं पर दिलेर भी।।...घुटी-घुटी की आओ थी राजनितीदारी चाल।तू नेहरू री बेटी नी थी एक लाल।।
