Book Description
A woman heartbroken Sam Kerr had it all: a thriving law practice, a beautiful home and a wonderful circle of friends. But watching her friends find love reminds her of the man who left her behind. Romance isn’t worth the pain; she’ll stick with business. Then she discovers Marcus Bank, her wealthiest client, is supporting criminal activity. Sam drops them immediately and loses her income, her community’s support, and everything she fought so hard to build. Even worse, the only person who can help her is the man who abandoned her. A man conflicted Trevor Mills sails the world with the US Navy, haunted by the memory of the woman he had to leave behind. A life-changing injury drives him from the service into a new desk job with the FBI in the DC area. The city’s noise, traffic and people are a constant reminder that he lost the perfect life and love. Then the FBI needs an undercover agent in Marcus, Montana, forcing Trevor to return and face the woman he’d never stopped loving. Sam hates him, but needs to bring the criminals threatening their town to justice. As the danger intensifies, Sam and Trevor can’t deny their attraction. Will confronting their painful past help Sam and Trevor survive the present and build a future together, or tear them apart forever?

Montgomery
Author: Nigel Hamilton
Publisher: Potomac Books, Inc.
ISBN: 1612340660
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 190
Book Description
This fascinating study of military leadership follows British general Bernard Law Montgomery's military career from his cadet days and service in World War I to his great victories of World War II, including his defeat of the great German panzer commander, Erwin Rommel, at Alamein. Nigel Hamilton presents a brilliant, arrogant Montgomery, who refused to bow to authority and skated on the edge of dismissal like his American counterpart, George S. Patton. Though very different in their command styles, Montgomery and Patton became the two most successful Allied field generals in World War II. From North Africa through the invasion of Sicily, they routed the Germans in battle, with Patton as a thrusting cavalryman and Montgomery as an infantry commander devoted to applying massive force at a vital point. The author contends that Montgomery's planning and leadership transformed Operation Overlord from a Second Front project doomed to fail into a successful Allied invasion plan. Allied operations after Normandy foundered in bitter arguments and failure, for Montgomery at Arnhem and Patton at Metz. Had Montgomery and Patton been ordered to fight in the same direction after Normandy, argues Professor Hamilton, the Allies might have ended the war in Europe in 1944. As it was, Montgomery and Patton had to save the Allies from sensational defeat in the Battle of the Bulge in what was to be their last battle together. The war ended for Monty on May 4, 1945, when he accepted the surrender of all German forces in the north.

Churchill The Young Warrior
Author: John Harte
Publisher: Simon and Schuster
ISBN: 1510739912
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 517
Book Description
This is the intriguing chronicle of Winston Churchill’s early years as a young soldier fighting in several different types of wars—on horseback in the cavalry at Khartoum, with saber and lance against the Dervishes at age twenty-two, in the South African war against the Boers, and finally in the First World War after he resigned as First Lord of the Admiralty, to volunteer to lead a Scottish brigade in the trenches of the Western Front, as Lieutenant-Colonel. The book also covers the failure, bloodshed, and disgrace of Gallipoli that was blamed on him, which could have led to his downfall, as well as the formative relationships he had with the two important women in his young life — his mother, Jennie, who was an eighteen-year-old woman when she married an English aristocrat, and Churchill’s young wife, Clementine. How did the events of his early life shape his subsequent life and career, making him the leader he would become? What is the mystery behind how World War I erupted, and what role did Churchill play to end it? Most readers are aware of Churchill’s leadership in World War Two, but are unaware of his contributions and experiences in World War One. Through engaging narrative non-fiction, this book paints a startlingly different picture of Winston Churchill — not the portly, conservative politician who led the UK during World War II, but rather the capable young man in his 20s and 30s, who thought of himself as a soldier saving Britain from defeat. Gaining experience in battle and developing a killer instinct and a mature worldview would serve him well as the leader of the free world.

Sojourners in the Wilderness
Author: Corwin E. Smidt
Publisher: Rowman & Littlefield
ISBN: 9780847686452
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 314
Book Description
While the Christian Right has been the subject of a good deal of scholarly analysis, it has not been adequately studied within a comparative context -- across time, across different institutional systems, or across different religious communities. In Sojourners in the Wilderness, a host of distinguished scholars examine these dimensions of the Christian Right. The contributors analyze the Christian Right historically -- what is its relationship today with earlier manifestations? How have its organizational structures and strategies changed over time? Sociologically -- what are the current opportunities for Christian Right inroads within African-American, Catholic, and Jewish communities?; and politically -- what accounts for the affinity between many evangelical Protestants and the Christian Right within the American political context, while such an affinity appears to be lacking in other political contexts? All of those interested in religion's role in politics and history will find this book valuable.
