Book Description
Letters to Angela provides an intimate glimpse at author Phillip Reisner's love for his two daughters, Angela and Kaitlyn. Through a series of emotional letters and honest poetry, Reisner shares the wonderful memories they have shared and the sad, sometimes hurtful events that changed their lives forever. The letters cover a span of nearly eighteen years of Angela's life, including the untimely death of her twin, Kaitlyn, at the age of three and a half. Reisner writes candidly about his relationship with his wife, daughters, mother, and extended family. The letters were written during several months of soul searching and emotional venting in hope of finding truth in his relationships. Reflecting on spiritual and earthly forces that affect his life, beliefs, and relationships, Reisner's letters are separated by poems, offering windows into the emotions that the author confronts as he explores his innermost thoughts and feelings regarding the events of the lives of those around him. From the joy of the birth of his twin daughters to the delightful discoveries of their early years to the hope that he and Angela can rebuild their relationship through love and forgiveness, Letters to Angela attests to the unconditional love of a father for his daughter.

Book Description
Today, we know US President Barack Obama and German Chancellor Angela Merkel as two of the world's most influential leaders, together at the center of some of the biggest stories of our time. But while their friendship has been the subject of both scrutiny and admiration, few know the full story. Taking office at the height of the 2008 global recession, Obama was keenly aware of the fractured relationship between the US and Europe. And for her part, Merkel was suspicious of the charismatic newcomer who had captivated her country. The two often clashed over policy, but--as the first Black president and first female chancellor--they shared a belief that democracy could uplift the world. Dear Barack is a thoroughly researched document of the parallel trajectories that led to Obama and Merkel meeting on the world stage. At times in the leaders' own words, the book examines the challenges of globalization and demonstrates the highs and lows of this extraordinary alliance.?A story of camaraderie at a global scale, Dear Barack shows that it is possible for political adversaries to establish bonds of respect--and even friendship--in the service of the free world.

Book Description
To anyone who had just walked down the drive in the August sun, the open door of the Red House revealed a delightfully inviting hall, of which even the mere sight was cooling. It was a big low-roofed, oak-beamed place, with cream-washed walls and diamond-paned windows, blue-curtained. On the right and left were doors leading into other living-rooms, but on the side which faced you as you came in were windows again, looking on to a small grass court, and from open windows to open windows such air as there was played gently. The staircase went up in broad, low steps along the right-hand wall, and, turning to the left, led you along a gallery, which ran across the width of the hall, to your bedroom. That is, if you were going to stay the night. Mr. Robert Ablett’s intentions in this matter were as yet unknown.
