Churchill by Himself
Quotations by the great statesman who helped lead Britain through two world wars: “Magisterial . . . Should be in the library of every Churchill aficionado” (American Spectator). We shall fight on the beaches, we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets, we shall fight in the hills; we shall never surrender . . . Millions have been moved by these words—and by the hundreds of speeches given by Winston S. Churchill to rally the British public, spur its government to armament against Hitler, and defend the causes for which he believed. Churchill by Himself is the first collection of quotations from a leader who had as much talent for wit as he had for inspiration and exhortation. Edited by renowned Churchill scholar Richard Langsworth, this volume is the definitive collection of important quotes from one of the twentieth century’s most persuasive and brilliant orators, whose writings earned him a Nobel Prize in Literature in 1953.
Who Cares?
"A swallow does not a summer make . . ." but when flocks of birds keep on flying like the A formation of raptors across the sea, you know that the season has arrived. "Who Cares" is a collection of many stories of the beginnings of Malaysian Carea Christian Social NGO which became a prophetic voice and a compassionate force in the wilderness of minimal social consciousness and apathy for the surrounding poor and marginalized communities. "In terms of both staff and budget, Malaysian Care has become, in 11 years, one of the most significant Christian social ministries in Malaysian history, second only to the mission schools and the wide ranging projects of the Roman Catholic Church. Certainly, it is the most important inter-denominational ministry in Malaysia. "Rev Robert Hunt, lecturer in Seminari Theologi Malaysia

Between Deterrence and Détente
The year 1953 represented a pivotal moment in the Cold War and set the course of global affairs for the next sixty-five years. The cessation of hostilities in the Korean War resulted in the creation of two opposing countries separated by a contentious demilitarized zone. This book presents how Great Britain’s Ambassador to the US, Sir Roger Makins, provided the British Foreign Office with weekly summaries of American political and diplomatic affairs throughout 1953. Examining the events of this critical year through the eyes of this British diplomat provides a fresh perspective on the Cold War.
Midnight in Chattanooga
During a five-year stretch in the middle of the decade, the James Madison Dukes emerged as one of the elite programs in FCS football. Behind a confident coach and an established recruiting pipeline, the Dukes steamrolled their way to four playoff appearances, one national championship and a 49-15 record from 2004-2008. The origins of this run, however, began much earlier — in critical moments and decisions made during a long rebuilding effort. Madison football had most recently been marked by poor attendance, young players, mediocrity and tragedy when the 2004 season opened. And yet there also existed a foundation of camaraderie, purpose and talent — the building blocks of a successful p...
