"The epoch of the Latvian Riflemen during World War I, the war for the country's liberation from teh Communist yoke in 1918-20 and the fate of the Latvian Legion during World War II are skillfully depicted by the only living former Prime Minister of his country. During his youth Mr. Blodnieks took an active part in the revolution against the Russian monarchy and the Baltic German nobility who had for generations been the oppressors of the Latvians, and has continued his efforts against the Communists through the period of struggle still going on. The Undefeated Nation is a casebook of extraordinary value to all interested in the pursuit of liberty and the understanding of the frustrations which from time to time face free people. The author, active in exile as a leader of the Free Latvians, gives hope and inspiration to all who demand and fight for individual liberty."--Jacket.

A great American sport and Native American history come together in this true story for middle grade readers about how Jim Thorpe and Pop Warner created the legendary Carlisle Indians football team, from New York Times bestselling author and Newbery Award recipient Steve Sheinkin. “Sheinkin has made a career of finding extraordinary stories in American history.” —The New York Times Book Review A Boston Globe-Horn Book Nonfiction Honor Book A New York Times Notable Children's Book A Washington Post Best Book Undefeated: Jim Thorpe and the Carlisle Indian School Football Team is an astonishing underdog sports story—and more. It’s an unflinching look at the U.S. government’s violent persecution of Native Americans and the school that was designed to erase Indian cultures. Expertly told by three-time National Book Award finalist Steve Sheinkin, it’s the story of a group of young men who came together at that school, the overwhelming obstacles they faced both on and off the field, and their absolute refusal to accept defeat. Jim Thorpe: Super athlete, Olympic gold medalist, Native American Pop Warner: Indomitable coach, football mastermind, Ivy League grad Before these men became legends, they met in 1907 at the Carlisle Indian Industrial School in Pennsylvania, where they forged one of the winningest teams in American football history. Called "the team that invented football," they took on the best opponents of their day, defeating much more privileged schools such as Harvard and the Army in a series of breathtakingly close calls, genius plays, and bone-crushing hard work. This thoroughly-researched and documented book can be worked into multiple aspects of the common core curriculum. “Along with Thorpe's fascinating personal story, Sheinkin offers a thought-provoking narrative about the evolution of football and the development of boarding schools such as the Carlisle Indian School.” —The Washington Post Also by Steve Sheinkin: Bomb: The Race to Build—and Steal—the World's Most Dangerous Weapon The Notorious Benedict Arnold: A True Story of Adventure, Heroism & Treachery Most Dangerous: Daniel Ellsberg and the Secret History of the Vietnam War The Port Chicago 50: Disaster, Mutiny, and the Fight for Civil Rights Which Way to the Wild West?: Everything Your Schoolbooks Didn't Tell You About Westward Expansion King George: What Was His Problem?: Everything Your Schoolbooks Didn't Tell You About the American Revolution Two Miserable Presidents: Everything Your Schoolbooks Didn't Tell You About the Civil War Born to Fly: The First Women's Air Race Across America

This epic story recounts the exceptional valor and endurance of American troops that battled Japanese forces in the Philippines during World War II. Bill Sloan, “a master of the combat narrative” (Dallas Morning News), tells the story of the outnumbered American soldiers and airmen who stood against invading Japanese forces in the Philippines at the beginning of World War II, and continued to resist through three harrowing years as POWs. For four months they fought toe to toe against overwhelming enemy numbers—and forced the Japanese to pay a heavy cost in blood. After the surrender came the infamous Bataan Death March, where up to eighteen thousand American and Filipino prisoners died as they marched sixty-five miles under the most hellish conditions imaginable. Interwoven throughout this gripping narrative are the harrowing personal experiences of dozens of American soldiers, airmen, and Marines, based on exclusive interviews with more than thirty survivors. Undefeated chronicles one of the great sagas of World War II—and celebrates a resounding triumph of the human spirit.

An extraordinary, vivid, haunting and stunning novel magnificently crafted taking you into a time of tragic history that molded a nation out of exploration and discovery, wanton carnage, savagery, courage and bloodshed.An overwhelming gripping action packed story of a young man's grind to manhood through despair, shame, torture, survival and retribution. His early years infused with hate, of a mystic meeting with a spirit from another time and place, of the tragic wasted years fighting hell and horror of the blood lust of the American Civil War.This is an epic story of the hunter who became the hunted, as the predator giving no mercy, as the prey fighting for his life, of the rise and fall of a savagely persecuted nation of proud people caught in a turmoil by an encroaching world, of a love spurned and re-ignited in hot raw passion amid the death-defying challenge of leading the oppressed to freedom from a ruthless tyrant and the surprise, thrilling climax of revenge and a hate suppressed.The overwhelming power of such heart gripping action of this magnificent story penned in the poetry and endless beauty of the wilderness of Northern America so vividly described in Barry H Young's unique style.
