The Legacy of Guilt
The archetypal story of Thomas Kendall, a self-torturing, struggling missionary in nineteenth century New Zealand, is also a remarkable history of cross-cultural experience. Posted to New Zealand in 1814, Kendall was immensely devout but entirely unprepared for dealing with Māori. He nonetheless helped produce the first Māori Grammar, but was hindered by rumours of an affair with a Māori chief’s daughter. Dismissed from his duties in 1823, he continued studying Māori culture until his death nearly a decade later. Long out of print, this work by a leading New Zealand historian tells an absorbing story of the difficulties and dangers of the evangelical mission.
Blue Death
Dr. Ryan Kendall, dermatologist, thought it was just another day of patients in his office. High powered attorney Drew Garrett thought it was just a routine skin examination. Until Dr. Kendall saw the lesion on his back. Until what was just another ordinary day turned malignant. Dr. Chad Williams, noted D.C. pathologist, controls their fate. His microscope is his tool and weapon. Routine pathology is turned upside down. Lives and families are turned every which way by the pathologists fears and whims. Dr. Bob Williams, Chads father, faces the ultimate nightmare of medical and family betrayal. Their lives become irrevocably interwined in the realities of day to day real medicine and deception. No doctors appointment will ever be routine again.
The Man to See
This bestselling biography of legendary trial lawyer Edward Bennett Williams is "a skillful and lively portrait of a larger-than-life lawyer" (Kirkus Reviews). Legendary attorney Edward Bennet Williams was arguably the best trial lawyer ever to practice. Now, for the first time, bestselling author Evan Thomas takes us into the courtrooms of Williams's greatest performances as he defends "Godfather" Frank Costello, Jimmy Hoffa, Frank Sinatra, The Washington Post, and others, as well as behind the scenes where the witnesses are coached, the traps set, and the deals cut. In addition to being a lawyer of unprecedented influence, Williams was also an important Washington insider, privy to the secrets of America's most powerful men. Thomas tells the truth behind the stories that made Williams one of the most talked about public figures of his time, including Williams's role in the publication of the Pentagon Papers and the possibility that Williams may have been Watergate's Deep Throat. Based on Thomas's exclusive access to Williams's papers, The Man to See is an unprecedented look at the strategies and influence of this exceptional man.
