"Stranger and conqueror, his deeds won him a right to a place on the roll of English statesmen, and no man that came after him has won a right to a higher place." - E.A. Freeman A lot of ink has been spilled covering the lives of history's most influential figures, but how much of the forest is lost for the trees? In Charles River Editors' Legends of the Middle Ages series, readers can get caught up to speed on the lives of the most important medieval men and women in the time it takes to finish a commute, while learning interesting facts long forgotten or never known. "We, conquered by William, have liberated the Conqueror's land". So reads the memorial to the British war dead at Bayeaux, Normandy. Commemorating those who gave their lives to free France in 1944, it also serves to remind us of an earlier conflict. For the English, the Norman conquest remains deeply embedded in the national psyche. As the last contested military invasion to have succeeded in conquering this proud island nation, the date of 1066 is the one every citizen can remember. For them, William will forever be the "Conqueror", the last invader to beat them in an open fight. For others, notably the French, he is the "Bastard", a reference not only to his lineage. William's conquest of the island arguably made him the most important figure in shaping the course of English history, but modern caricatures of this vitally important medieval figure are largely based on ignorance. William is a fascinating and complex figure, in many ways the quintessential warrior king of this period. Inheriting the Duchy of Normandy while still an infant and forced to fight for his domain almost ceaselessly during his early years, William went on to conquer and rule England, five times larger and three times wealthier. In doing so, he demonstrated sophisticated political and diplomatic skill, military prowess and administrative acumen. Although he lived by the sword, he was a devout man who had only one wife, to whom he remained faithful. However, peering back nearly 1,000 years to understand William does not just require a suspension of 21st century values and prejudices, because the evidence itself is far from complete. The historical record includes chronicles and documents, most notably the Anglo-Saxon Chronicle, the famous Domesday Book and the Bayeux tapestry, leaving scholars to attempt the meticulous and painstaking process of piecing together the narrative of his life and determining what William and the Normans might actually have been like. At the same time, those scholars are the first to admit the limitations of these abilities, since the few people who could write in medieval England and Normandy often had important agendas and prejudices of their own, or they were recording events decades after they occurred. Legends of the Middle Ages: The Life and Legacy of William the Conqueror chronicles the historic life and conquests of the medieval king and analyzes his monumental legacy. Along with pictures of important people, places, and events, you will learn about William the Conqueror like you never have before, in no time at all.

"The Life and Legacy of Cyrus the Great" details the life of Cyrus II of Persia (c. 600-530 BC), the founder of the Achaemenid Empire, the first Persian Empire. Under his rule, which lasted c. 30 years, the empire embraced all the previous civilized states of the ancient Near East, expanded vastly and eventually conquered most of Western Asia and much of Central Asia. From the Mediterranean Sea and Hellespont in the west to the Indus River in the east, Cyrus the Great created the largest empire the world had yet seen. He respected the customs and religions of the lands he conquered, which became a very successful model for centralized administration and establishing a government working to the advantage and profit of its subjects. Cyrus the Great has been known for his innovations in building projects; he further developed the technologies that he found in the conquered cultures and applied them in building the palaces of Pasargadae. He is also well recognized for his achievements in human rights, politics, and military strategy, as well as his influence on both Eastern and Western civilizations.

This book was written to share words of inspiration, encouragement and hope that are biblically based and practically applied. As many people require daily consumption of medications in quantities of doses prescribed by physicians, my prayer is that as you read these spiritual doses of inspiration, you will experience an uplifted spirited and a renewed mind. My prayer is that the Lord allow this tool to be one where those who are hurting spiritually and emotionally, those who are oppressed and depressed, or those that just need a "picker-upper" will obtain a "right now" word that will feed their spirit, mind and soul.

“Break your opponent, little Erin. Shatter their will. End their life. Anything else is playing games with death.” ---- She is Erin Felhorn, the hidden daughter of the legendary Watcher of Veldaren. She is also Erin Gemcroft, inheritor to the wealth of one of the three families of the Trifect...which might have meant something before the east was destroyed in the Gods' War. Her family has sailed west, seeking safety in the lands of Ker, which were spared much of the wrath of the Fallen when the Night of Black Wings befell the world. In their capital city of Angkar, she trains, ever seeking to live up to the stories of her father, Haern. What were just stories quickly become real when the Godslayer, Harruq Tun, arrives as escort to the young prince of Mordan. They come to ensure a lasting peace between the two nations as well as the last survivors of the elven people, but Erin cares for none of that. With the half-orc's arrival, she can be trained by someone her own father trained. Except there are those among the elves who have witnessed the destruction wrought upon the land by the human gods and seek to elevate their own. Those who would follow in the legacy of the Darkhand, who conquered human cities with vice, assassination, and betrayal. They would build for elvenkind a new kingdom, the Sun Kingdom, where humanity is ruled by those who who live eternal. To get what they want, they will come for Erin's family. They will destroy the life they have built in the west. Not even the Godslayer is safe. Her only savior is the one person she should never trust: a ghost of her past believed dead by all the world. THE LEGACY OF THE WATCHER by David Dalglish The child must bear the sins of their father's shadow.
