In the spring of 1968, under the threat of the draft, Loring M. Bailey Jr. enlisted in the Army with the option for Offi cers Candidate School. From his induction in June 1968 and basic training in Fort Knox Kentucky, he began a series of letters to his family and friends. With an Infantry assignment, he entered nine weeks of Advanced Infantry Training at Fort Polk Louisiana, followed by nine months of combat infantry in Vietnam. Writing stations were established immediately, and letters fl owed out of the jungle. On the fi fteenth of March 1970, while on Nui Chap Vung Mountain in the Quang Ngai province, Ring was fatally wounded from the detonation of a hidden antipersonnel device. He was posthumously awarded the Bronze Star Medal and the Purple Heart. Ring gave us the insight of an educated and articulate soldier and delivers Vietnam in the perspective of one man in a war with a 360 degree front. We present these letters to you as they were written to us: In a calm frenzy.

"'Manaen, my father's dead!' Antipas shrieked. His voice was shrill with terror. 'My life is in danger! Help me hide!' His eyes rolled wildly in his head as he searched for a hiding place. 'They'll surely kill me now. Help me, Manaen. Please help me.'" As a member of the household of Herod the Great, Manaen is immersed in an unpredictable and often violent world. In his search for truth and for love, he finds that it can also be a world of healing and restoration. Manaen is uniquely positioned to witness the entire life of Jesus Christ. The way their lives intertwine provides a fresh perspective on Jesus from the moment of his birth to his persecution, death, and resurrection. Will Manaen's prophecies come to pass, or is he just another false prophet? Though we see mention of the true Manaen in the Bible, we really know little about him. In her novel, "Manaen: Prophet to the King," Robbie Munn Bayler weaves fact and fiction together in a tale of intrigue, adventure, love, and betrayal. From the wealth of the palace to the depth of the tomb, "Manaen: Prophet to the King" is timeless and exciting. It is the story of the influence one man has on every life he touches. You can be a witness to history.

The End of Certainty is a magical realist book on world politics. Stephen Chan takes the reader on a rollercoaster ride through how we can establish a new kind of international relations and construct a common future for the planet. Chan argues that the certainties of singular traditions of philosophy have failed to help us understand power shifts and struggles in an endlessly diverse world. Chan argues that fusing different strands of Western, Eastern, religious and philosophical thought, is far more likely to help us move forward amidst uncertainty. In doing so, he takes us on a journey from the battlefields of Eritrea to the Twin Towers, via the Book of Job, Clausewitz, Fanon and Wahabism. You'll never think about international politics in quite the same way again.

A reviewer once called Peter Viereck's thought "not common sense but inspired, electric common sense." This volume of Viereck's selected essays on poetry and on history, written between 1938 through 2004, exemplifies this quality. Its main theme is suggested in Viereck's coined phrase "strict wildness," which suggests a balance between restraint (which by itself is staid and rigid) and passion (which by itself is incoherent). Frost called free verse tennis without the net. Viereck calls dead mechanical form "net without the tennis." Strict wildness, then, is spontaneity of feeling within strict organic form. The book explores questions of modernism and poetic craft with respect to American poetry. It discusses the controversy over Ezra Pound's politics and its relation to his poetics, and the nearly forgotten poet Vachel Lindsay. Viereck offers more general views on poetics, including the fruitful tensions between form and content, and the impact of modern technology on poetic expression. This book also discusses history and politics, and contains essays on McCarthyism, the Cold War, political conformity of the Left and Right, and issues of historiography and culture that define Viereck's highly individual, often critical brand of conservatism. In treating representative trends and figures in conservative thought, Viereck insists on clear awareness of what exists to conserve, what ought to be conserved, and why it should be conserved. In their range and originality, the writings brought together in Strict Wildness constitute an ideal introduction to Peter Viereck's literary and political thought. It will be of interest to literary scholars, intellectual historians, and political scientists.

Mark Doty's last two award-winning collections of poetry, as well as his acclaimed memoir Heaven's Coast, used the devastation of AIDS as a lens through which to consider questions of loss, love and identity. The poems in Sweet Machine see the world from a new, hard-won perspective: A coming back to life, after so much death, a way of seeing the body's "sweet machine" not simply as a time bomb, but also as a vibrant, sensual, living thing. These poems are themselves "sweet machines"—lyrical, exuberant and joyous—and they mark yet another milestone in the extraordinary career of one of our most distinguished and accomplished poets.
