"A significant contribution to American history."–Kirkus Reviews “[Breaking the Chains] will force many readers to reexamine their assumptions about American history….Young adults will be fascinated and better informed for having experienced this book.” –School Library Journal, starred review Generations of American history students have grown up believing that enslaved people accepted their lot and became attached to their enslavers, that rebellion was rare, and that liberation from slavery happened thanks to the enslavers. Celebrated historian and children’s book author, William Loren Katz offers a thoroughly researched look at the lives of enslaved people in the United States in Breaking the Chains. From their African abductions through their brave resistance to and escape from the ships and harsh plantation life to their roles in the Civil War, those given voice here show that enslaved people themselves were a driving force behind their emancipation. This compelling look at history is an educational eye-opener for history buffs of all ages, and offers clarity on one of the most turbulent periods of US history. This new paperback edition features a new introduction by historian Robin D. G. Kelley. “Katz masterfully steers the reader step by step through the astonishing forms of resistance, both active and passive. . . . powerful and authentic.” –Publishers Weekly

Another mad-cap adventure awaits Detan and his ne’er do well companions in this delightful steampunk mash-up with all the trappings of a heist caper As the city that produces the most selium—that precious gas that elevates airships and powers strange magic—Hond Steading is a jewel worth stealing. To shore up the city’s defenses, Detan promises his aunt that he’ll recover Nouli, the infamous engineer who built the century gates that protect the imperial capital of Valathea. But Nouli is imprisoned on the Remnant Isles, an impervious island prison run by the empire, and it’s Detan’s fault. Detan doesn’t dare approach Nouli himself, so his companions volunteer to get themselves locked up to make contact with Nouli and convince him to help. Now Detan has to break them all out of prison, and he’s going to need the help of a half-mad doppel to do it.

Breaking Chains was ushered in behind the birth of Refl ections of Madison because God empowers me through the Holy Spirit to continue this journey with His inspiration, direction and gift of writing. As Victoria faces turmoil and loss in her life, her faith wavers and breaks when she turns from the one constant upon which she should depend. This leaves her vulnerable to forces that malevolently twist her life into a pain-fi lled journey of discovery, whereupon she eventually realizes that she had the solution to her problems in her heart all along. Breaking the chains of old is a process of identifying and eliminating or conquering generational sins. In my opinion: once you’ve been in the presence of God. He gives you the power of discernment... to identify the sin and the tools to conquer sin, individually.

Rison's Way shows the different areas of the American West and the people who lived and died there. Some of the stories contain humor, some dark tragedy. The West was not just about cowboys and Indians, lawmen and outlaws. People went west to start a new life, or escape the old one. Every town had an assortment of blacksmiths, cobblers, peddlers of household goods, and shady characters. The characters in Rison's Way represent a cross section of American life west of the Mississippi in the 19th century. Some lived, some died, but all were searching for part of the American dream.

The incredible story of spaceflight before the establishment of NASA. NASA's history is a familiar story, one that typically peaks with Neil Armstrong taking his small step on the Moon in 1969. But America's space agency wasn't created in a vacuum. It was assembled from pre-existing parts, drawing together some of the best minds the non-Soviet world had to offer. In the 1930s, rockets were all the rage in Germany, the focus both of scientists hoping to fly into space and of the German armed forces, looking to circumvent the restrictions of the Treaty of Versailles. One of the key figures in this period was Wernher von Braun, an engineer who designed the rockets that became the devastating V-2. As the war came to its chaotic conclusion, von Braun escaped from the ruins of Nazi Germany, and was taken to America where he began developing missiles for the US Army. Meanwhile, the US Air Force was looking ahead to a time when men would fly in space, and test pilots like Neil Armstrong were flying cutting-edge, rocket-powered aircraft in the thin upper atmosphere. Breaking the Chains of Gravity tells the story of America's nascent space program, its scientific advances, its personalities and the rivalries it caused between the various arms of the US military. At this point getting a man in space became a national imperative, leading to the creation of the National Aeronautics and Space Administration, otherwise known as NASA.

Breaking the Chains By: Sonja Rongstad Saying Sonja Rongstad has had a rough journey through her life is an understatement. Her grandfather, Granville Rongstad, had twenty-seven known children. They were all severely abused, physically, mentally, and sexually. His wife, Sonja’s grandmother, was basically his slave. Similarly, Sonja’s own father unfortunately followed in his father’s footsteps, abusing Sonja for as long as she can remember. A series of short, abusive relationships with men also followed Sonja all through her adulthood. But through it all, her faith in God never wavered. Breaking the Chains is Sonja’s life journey, trying to overcome the abuse and find happiness in an otherwise dark and hopeless world. We learn that we may never forget our past, but we can learn to leave it there.
