Billy has loved the slave girl Nellies for as long as he can remember, but Old Albert, the boy's father, has repeatedly warned Billy that if he impregnates the girl, she'll be sold. The old man has had his way with many a pretty slave on the Dayton plantation, so he's fearful his sons might impregnate their half-sisters. Sure enough in 1859, Nellie bears Billy a son. He arranges for her to go North; however, and iniquitous slaver captures her. Billy won't see Nellie again until he fights at Shiloh and Gettysburg and escapes from infamous Camp Douglas.

Young Rob Johnson just wants to farm his family's land in Morgan County, Virginia, and court pretty Fannie Swann, but the outbreak of war between the North and the South plunges him into a world of treachery and violence. Threatened by Rebel conscription gangs and Yankee foragers, Rob finally joins the 48th Virginia Infantry and experiences the horrors of war. Rob still thinks of Fannie, who has been playing a dangerous game for the Southern cause. He's also attracted to brave Laura Meeks, who he saved from a group of renegades. Sick of death and fighting, Rob finds work among Quakers and meets Abigail Treverton -- the two are immediately drawn to each other. Treachery follows him, however, and Rob ends up a Yankee prisoner of war. He and his comrades escape, and he returns to find Abigail married. But what of Laura, and the child she says is his? Or Fannie, who was his first love? Rob's troubles do not end with the Confederate surrender, for resentment and bitterness run deep between those who supported the South and those who were on the side of the North. After all he has endured, will Rob be able to keep his family farm and make a home for himself and those he loves?

When World War II broke out in Europe, the American army had no specialized division of mountain soldiers. But in the winter of 1939-40, after a tiny band of Finnish mountain troops brought the invading Soviet army to its knees, an amateur skier named Charles Minot "Minnie" Dole convinced the United States Army to let him recruit an extraordinary assortment of European expatriates, wealthy ski bums, mountaineers, and thrill-seekers and form them into a unique band of Alpine soldiers. These men endured nearly three years of grueling training in the Colorado Rockies and in the process set new standards for both soldiering and mountaineering. The newly forged 10th Mountain Division finally faced combat in the winter of 1945, in Italy's Apennine Mountains, against the seemingly unbreakable German fortifications north of the Gothic Line. There, they planned and executed what is still regarded as the most daring series of nighttime mountain attacks in U.S. military history, taking Mount Belvedere and the sheer, treacherous face of Riva Ridge to smash the linchpin of the German army's lines. Drawing on unique cooperation from veterans of the 10th Mountain Division and a vast archive of unpublished letters and documents, The Last Ridge is written with enormous warmth, energy, and honesty. This is one of the most captivating stories of World War II, a blend of Band of Brothers and Into Thin Air. It is a story of young men asked to do the impossible, and succeeding.

In 1950 the independent nation of Tibet was invaded and occupied by the People's Republic of China. Its people were decimated, their resources exploited, their culture destroyed, and their religion forbidden. In 1959 Tibetans rose up in a rebellion, put down harshly by the People's Liberation Army. Hundreds of thousands were either massacred or imprisoned and enslaved. A great exodus of Tibetans fled into exile, including their own highest leader, the Fourteenth Dalai Lama. Today, the cultural genocide in Tibet is ongoing, the population transfer to Tibet of millions of Chinese colonists is funded and encouraged by the Chinese government, and the flow of Tibetans into exile continues.What must it be like to be a Tibetan living in occupied Tibet? How does the escape from tyranny, leaving friends and family members behind, inform the life and thought of those Tibetan exiles who have found freedom--either just across the Himalayan range dividing Tibet from India, or in the wider world?This book of poetry by Meenakshi Negi speaks prophetically to the Chinese occupiers, warning them of the grave consequences of their oppression and predicting its ultimate failure. It also encourages the long-suffering people of Tibet, honoring their bravery and persistence, congratulating them for their extraordinary spiritual resilience, and celebrating the glory of Tibet's great mountain of devotion to life, and its great gifts of inner sciences and arts that further human spiritual evolution.
