Web Site Book Description The entertainment and sports transformation of Atlanta Georgia began with the arrival of the Atlanta Braves baseball team in 1964 and didnt slow down until the 1996 Olympic Games. Every type of sporting event either passed through or called Atlanta home - except thoroughbred horse racing. Long known for its attraction to gamblers and underworld figures horseracing has always lived under a cloak of suspicion. Here is a story about a man with a tremendous stroke of luck who set out to remove that cloak and bring horse racing into the limelight. Not as a game of chance, where people squander away their money and their futures trying to hit the big payout, but as a sport of competition between the fastest and most enduring athletes on earth. Come on in and meet the players of this complex game of strategy and discover that they are typical Americans with the heart and desire to chase after their dreams. Go back and follow the history of Atlantas transformation from an ordinary southern town into a thriving metropolitan city. Realize that the cloak of suspicion placed on horse racing could also apply to any professional sport when people stray from the path of honesty and morality. Inside you will find the formula and all of the ingredients to change the face of horse racing as you look into the hearts and souls of the people who are there for the love of the game. In this age of ultra technology there is a great opportunity for a daring entrepreneur to create a great enterprise and leave his or her mark in history. Atlanta Georgia is home to an outgoing population that thrives on fun, adventure, and excitement. It is also the last best chance for horse racing to start over with a new set of rules casting the race horse as a competitive athlete instead of a number in an exotic lottery. Glorious Battle Cry is a story about a man who lucks upon the oppurtunity to start his own racing program with his own rules. Along with racing he offers everyone a look at some things and places that are beyond our horizon. He re-introduces horse racing to a new fan on a smaller and simpler scale. His goal is to restore credibility and preserve the rich rewards befitting a champion. In the heart of the thoroughbred there is a wealth of history about horse racing that needs to be regarded and preserved. There are comedies and tragedies, stories about rags to riches, and riches to rags. There are stories about love and deceit, heroes and villans. There are stories about great races that have been told and written that can now come alive. Follow this story of an ordinary fellow with extraordinary dreams as he takes a bold, yet calculated, risk to chase an elusive dream, and along the way encounters lifes greatest tragedies which makes everything seem insignificant.

Glorious War, the thrilling and definitive biography of George Armstrong Custer's Civil War years, is nothing short of a heart-pounding cavalry charge through the battlefield heroics that thrust the gallant young officer into the national spotlight in the midst of the country's darkest hours. From West Point to the daring military actions that propelled him to the rank of general at age twenty-three to his unlikely romance with Libbie Bacon, Custer's exploits are the stuff of legend. Always leading his men from the front with a personal courage seldom seen before or since, he was a key part of nearly every major engagement in the east. Not only did Custer capture the first battle flag taken by the Union Army and receive the white flag of surrender at Appomattox, but his field generalship at Gettysburg against Confederate cavalry General Jeb Stuart had historic implications in changing the course of that pivotal battle. For decades, historians have looked at Custer strictly through the lens of his death on the frontier, his last stand, casting him as a failure. While some may say that the events that took place at the Little Big Horn are illustrative of America's bloody westward expansion, they have in the process unjustly eclipsed Custer's otherwise extraordinarily life and outstanding career and fall far short of encompassing his incredible service to his country. This biography of thundering cannons, pounding hooves, and stunning successes tells the true story of the origins of one of history's most dynamic and misunderstood figures. Award-winning historian Thom Hatch reexamines Custer's early career to rebalance the scales and show why Custer's epic fall could never have happened without the spectacular rise that made him an American legend.

In the deepest recesses of the human imagination every human heart aches to fulfill the story of God. The battle of eternity burns in the hearts of humanity. The story has been etched by the creator of life on the eternal soul of mankind. The epic tale demands to be expressed by the created being. The yearning for good to triumph over evil is played out in the imaginations of men and women from the beginning of time until now. It is the archetypal battle of life and death and the stakes are eternal. The expression of the story takes on as many forms as there are human beings in the history of the world. The heart of man plays both sides of the story, reveling as the victorious warrior or feigning the dying breath of a sacrificial king. Men seek glory and the legacy of honor as they lay down their lives for the greater good. They go to war. They seek the Truth. They fall and fail. They rise again, always grasping and yearning for the answer of peace which they know in their hearts will fulfill the deepest longing of the soul.The human soul languishes in a prison of weak, abhorrent flesh, but in moments of strength and clarity the soul repents of rebellion and reaches for the grace of God, beating the flesh and forcing its stubborn will into submission. As the conscience of mankind is seared and numbed the soul falls away from the guiding Holy Spirit of God. Yet even in the darkest hour of gross negligence and unholy bondage the story is etched in one form or another in the heart and soul of every created being. It longs to be revealed and to realize the plan of redemption, the vanquishing of evil and the ultimate victory of eternal life over death. For this reason the thespian efforts of aspiring and inspiring actors in theatres of old and movies of modern day portray in the most realistic fashion possible the heroic adventures of men and gods. From the fairy tale prince to the sleeping princess; from the white knight on a white horse rescuing the damsel in distress to the brave and hearty warrior knight vanquishing the evil, fire-breathing dragon; all of them together seek the consummation of all conflict and the destruction of evil that they might engage in the ever elusive dream of happily ever after.This is the story of God whose ultimate will is that none should perish, but that all should come to a knowledge of the truth that they might be saved. Humanity recognizes this eternal structure of holiness, righteousness, peace and grace and they seek the authority of a benevolent authority to end all conflict but many seldom come to the knowledge of the truth that this archetypal desire that is written on our hearts comes from The God Almighty who created the universe, gave us His Word, revealed to us His will, died to win our love, and has a plan of redemption according to the good pleasure of His will. This plan exists in the Words of prophetic scripture and binds all of humanity to its consummation and to the total fulfillment of the destiny, our destiny, written on every single heart and soul for eternity.There has never been such a sure collection of signs indicating we are approaching the end of the age and entering into the last days of Bible Prophecy. Based on a historical and Biblical foundation, a deep look at the prophetic scriptures of the Bible coupled with deductive exegesis reveals a great deal about where the world stands today in the prophetic timeline and in what order the events of the last days unfold. In the Glorious Battle we discuss the order of prophetic events such as: the last seven years of this age, the great tribulation, the revealing of antichrist, the rapture of the church, and the return of Jesus Christ in power and glory. In the midst of these final moments in the history of this age every soul on earth will have to endure their own personal battle as they decide what to do with Jesus, The Word of God and the clear warnings of Jesus to watch for His return.

Human progress and prosperity depend on a peaceful environment, and most people have always sought to live in peace, yet our perception of the past is dominated too often not by stories of peace but by tales of war. In this path-breaking study, former Guardian East Asia Editor John Gittings demolishes the myth that peace is dull and that war is in our genes, and opens an alternative window on history to show the strength of the case for peace which has been argued from ancient times onwards. Beginning with a new analysis of the treatment of peace in Homer's Iliad, he explores the powerful arguments against war made by classical Chinese and Greek thinkers, and by the early Christians. Gittings urges us to pay more attention to Erasmus on the Art of Peace, and less to Machiavelli on the Art of War. The significant shift in Shakespeare's later plays towards a more peace-oriented view is also explored. Gittings traces the growth of the international movement for peace from the Enlightenment to the present day, and assesses the inspirational role of Tolstoy and Gandhi in advocating non-violence. Bringing the story up to date, he shows how the League of Nations in spite of its "failure" led to high hopes for a stronger United Nations, but that real chances for peace were missed in the early years of the cold war. And today, Gittings argues that, instead of being obsessed by a new "war on terror" we should be seeking peaceful solutions to the challenges of nuclear proliferation, conflict and extremism, poverty and inequality, and climate change. This paperback edition includes a new preface, in which Gittings looks at how the world is confronted with new dangers to peace, as the election of President Trump highlights the continuing unpredictability and irrational nature of a system of international relations which could lead to new wars and even nuclear disaster.

Exploring the American Civil War through 50 Historic Treasures brings together historic objects, documents, artwork, and the natural and built environments to tell the full story of this important event in American history. The American Civil War still matters. It matters because the war—its causes and its consequences— continue to influence America as a nation. At its core, the Civil War was about slavery. Began as a fight to secure the future of slavery, the Civil War resulted instead in the abolition of slavery. The complex racial issues at its core, however, remain with us today. Exploring the American Civil War through 50 Historic Treasures begins with the causes of the war, examining objects that tell the story of slavery and its expansion in the nineteenth century. Cultural treasures representing the war years explore the battlefield and the homefront and the men and women caught up in the war as well the ways in which the scale of the war forced technological innovations. Given the centrality of slavery, race, and emancipation in the story of the Civil War, one section presents objects that detail how free and enslaved blacks transformed the war effort and were in turn transformed by the war. In the final section, the historic treasures trace the ongoing impact of the war, including the dramatic increase in the removal of Confederate monuments in the summer of 2020. Each object's story is detailed with color photos that draw readers into the story of the American Civil War. Many of these objects appear here in print for the first time.
