“An eminently readable, visually compelling overview and summary of . . . one of the greatest world-shaping events of the twentieth century,” World War I (David Stone, author of The Kaiser’s Army). This beautiful and evocative book gives an illustrated overview of the First World War, on land, on sea, and in the air. With original drawings in full color, Steven Patricia uses thirty years’ experience as a historical illustrator to give an informative and insightful account of the war, portraying the human faces of the participants and capturing moments in time with a vividness and immediacy that brings home both the emotional impact and the tragedy of war. Accompanied by soldiers’ diary extracts and other contemporary literature, there are many drawings of the hardware of war: aircraft and airships, submarines and ships, guns and grenades. We also get a glimpse of weary officers relaxing in an RAF mess, see panicking sailors swimming desperately away from a sinking ship, soldiers stumbling across no-man’s-land, and the dramatic scene of one of last great cavalry charges of any war, in Egypt. The role of animals is featured, including the importance of horses and rescue and messenger dogs. The text gives a concise introduction to the events of the war and why it started, with maps of the different fronts where fighting took place and a diagram of a trench system. “With an emphasis on showing the humanity of soldiers and the emotions of war, this illustrated overview is designed especially for those with little previous knowledge of the Great War.” —ProtoView

“Both timeless and timely, this is a book of wisdom and wonder” (Geraldine Brooks, Pulitzer Prize–winning author of March), a deeply personal exploration of what can sustain us through our darkest moments. “What has fascinated and sustained me over these last few years has been the notion that we have the ability to find, nurture, and carry our own inner, living light—a light to ward off the darkness. This is not about burning brightly; it’s about yielding a more simple phosphorescence—being luminous, having stored light for later use. Staying alive, remaining upright, even when lashed by doubt.” After surviving a difficult heartbreak and battle with cancer, acclaimed author and columnist Julia Baird began thinking deeply about how we, as people, persevere through the most challenging circumstances. She started to wonder, when we are overwhelmed by illness, loss or pain, or a tragedy outside our control: How can we keep putting one foot in front of the other? Baird went in search of the magic that fuels the light within—our own phosphorescence. In this stunning book, she reflects on the things that lit her way through the darkness, especially the surprising strength found in connecting with nature and not just experiencing awe and wonder about the world around her, but deliberately hunting it, daily. Baird also writes about crossbeams of resilience: nurturing friendships and a quiet faith, pursuing silence, fighting for what she believes in, the importance of feeling small, learning from her mother's example of stoic grace. She also explores how others nurture their inner light, interviewing the founder of the modern forest therapy movement in Tokyo, a jellyfish scientist in Tasmania, and a tattooed priest from Colorado, among others. Weaving together candid and moving memoir with deep research and reflections on nature and the world around her, Baird inspires readers to embrace new habits and to adopt a phosphorescent outlook on life, to illuminate ourselves and our days—even in the darkest times.

When the World Went Dark is a dystopian story of the future that begins in what was once Hong Kong with the mainland - Jungwa - being the landmass that Old City is attached to even though owned by a separate entity than Jungwa within the Corporation. Across the harbor is the high-tech island of New City that is owned by still another entity. Both cities have different legal systems thus rights and freedoms. Both cities represent different opportunities for their citizens that ultimately provoke the citizens in Old City to begin to rebel, which brings them into conflict with the security forces headed at the street level by Captain David McStern. Yet more is at stake then basic freedoms as McStern at the street level and along the Border of Jungwa learns. His high ranking counter-part in New City Nigel Roberts is confronted with the same revelation: an underground "skin-trade" exists for experimentation up to and including "Rendition" that involves the government sanctioned New City research center. As both men begin to follow the various clues they discover in the course of their investigation they are confronted with Kahn: a product of "Rendition" himself that was taken from the deserts of Jungwa and used as a mercenary. Although mind-jacked by drugs and other bio-tech implants that suppress his spirit for many years Kahn is able to break free and begins the desperate search for self and meaning. In the course of his break for freedom he finds out about others who have been likewise "taken for Rendition" and seeks to free them also. It is in the process of this escape that Kahn begins to work with Roberts and his crew to save even more which brings them into conflict with the powers to be in both cities including the Eastern Sea cartel from the mysterious city of Artillect that is attempting to high-jack the bio-tech firm and the soldiers it had begun to breed: the Chimera.
