The Nazi Impact on a German Village
“A vivid & sensitive portrait of a small, tradition-bound community coming to terms with modernity under the most adverse of conditions.” —Observer Review Many scholars have tried to assess Adolf Hitler’s influence on the German people, usually focusing on university towns and industrial communities, most of them predominately Protestant or religiously mixed. This work by Walter Rinderle and Bernard Norling, however, deals with the impact of the Nazis on Oberschopfheim, a small, rural, overwhelmingly Catholic village in Baden-Wuerttemberg in southwestern Germany. This incisively written book raises fundamental questions about the nature of the Third Reich. The authors portray the Naz...
Choosing Truman
As Franklin D. Roosevelt's health deteriorated in the months leading up to the Democratic National Convention of 1944, Democratic leaders confronted a dire situation. Given the inevitability of the president's death during a fourth term, the choice of a running mate for FDR was of profound importance. The Democrats needed a man they could trust. They needed Harry S. Truman. Robert Ferrell tells an engrossing tale of ruthless ambition, secret meetings, and party politics. Roosevelt emerges as a manipulative leader whose desire to retain power led to a blatant disregard for the loyalty of his subordinates and the aspirations of his vice presidential hopefuls. Startling in its conclusions, impeccable in its research, Choosing Truman is an engrossing, behind-the-scenes look at the making of the nation's thirty-third president.

Solitary Consignment
Doctors perform procedures but God is the Healer. In “Solitary Consignment” Dr. Bert Park, a neurosurgeon is called into the mission field. A real life story set as a trial complete with prosecution, defense and closing arguments, Dr. Park encounters some 25 ‘witnesses’ and the timeless truths of Christ’s Beatitudes as expressed in Matthew Chapter 5. He shares through his trial of life that only by investing our unique spiritual gifts to the fullest in Christ can one truly reap the benefits in our ‘life saving’ efforts. Miracles don’t lead to lasting faith; rather, faith merely affirms the miraculous. Is the mere confession that Christ is Lord and a belief that God raised Him from the dead, all that’s required? Will Jesus’ verdict reveal that we are ‘guilty as believers’? Or will we come up short?

Colonel House
A man who lived his life mostly in the shadows, Edward M. House is little known or remembered today; yet he was one of the most influential figures of the Wilson presidency. Wilson's chief political advisor, House played a key role in international diplomacy, and had a significant hand in crafting the Fourteen Points at the Paris Peace Conference. Though the intimate friendship between the president and his advisor ultimately unraveled in the wake of these negotiations, House's role in the Wilson administration had a lasting impact on 20th century international politics. In this seminal biography, Charles E. Neu details the life of "Colonel" House, a Texas landowner who rose to become one of...
