And this attack won't stop until the bitterest, bloodiest end . . .

Book Description
When the gentler pace and stillness of the countryside replace the roar of the city, but your editor keeps calling With gorgeously detailed yet minimal art, cartoonist Yeon-Sik Hong explores his move with his wife to a small house atop a rural mountain, replacing the high-rent hubbub of Seoul with the quiet murmur of the country. With their dog, cats, and chickens by their side, the simple life and isolation they so desperately craved proves to present new anxieties. Hong paints a beautiful portrait of the Korean countryside, changing seasons, and the universal relationships humans have with each other as well as nature, both of which are sometimes frustrating but always rewarding. Uncomfortably Happily is translated by American cartoonist Hellen Jo from the acclaimed Manhwa Today award-winning Korean edition.

Book Description
The never-before-told story of one of the most decorated units in the war in Afghanistan and its fifteen-month ordeal that culminated in the 2008 Battle of Wanat, the war's deadliest A single company of US paratroopers--calling themselves the "Chosen Few"--arrived in eastern Afghanistan in late 2007 hoping to win the hearts and minds of the remote mountain people and extend the Afghan government's reach into this wilderness. Instead, they spent the next fifteen months in a desperate struggle, living under almost continuous attack, forced into a slow and grinding withdrawal, and always outnumbered by Taliban fighters descending on them from all sides. Month after month, rocket-propelled grenades, rockets, and machine-gun fire poured down on the isolated and exposed paratroopers as America's focus and military resources shifted to Iraq. Just weeks before the paratroopers were to go home, they faced their last--and toughest--fight. Near the village of Wanat in Nuristan province, an estimated three hundred enemy fighters surrounded about fifty of the Chosen Few and others defending a partially finished combat base. Nine died and more than two dozen were wounded that day in July 2008, making it arguably the bloodiest battle of the war in Afghanistan. The Chosen Few would return home tempered by war. Two among them would receive the Medal of Honor. All of them would be forever changed.

Book Description
The year is 1810, and a small group of French-Canadian voyageurs, fur trade men, are canoeing the largely uncharted waters of western Canada in a rush to reach the mouth of the Columbia River. As if traveling treacherous waters, crossing unmapped mountain passes, enduring harsh winters, and surviving among bears and wolves and encounters with unfamiliar indigenous tribes weren’t challenging enough, they likely have a thief in their midst and expect to become the target of an assassination attempt. The men, accompanied by a new British arrival and two Iroquois warriors, work at the behest of their beloved comrade, David Thompson, the famed British-Canadian fur trapper, mapmaker, and explorer. Unbeknownst to them, the stranger in their midst proves to be one William Ashford, a Captain of the 95th Regiment of foot and one of the 'Chosen Men’ of British riflemen. What they don’t know yet is that Ashford, an expert marksman, has been recruited by the British government as a spy and has been selected to protect Thompson and his maps and log books from a rogue group of Americans. He must use his skills as a rifleman, his intelligence as a military officer, and his willingness to learn from the Iroquois Indians who accompany and befriend him to protect Thompson at all costs. Drawing on a richly assembled history of exploration of western Canada and the race to claim its abundant resources, Twice Chosen Man offers an exhilarating rush and deep immersion into the forces that will ignite the War of 1812 and the eventual maturation of an emerging Canada.
