It Can't Last Forever

The 19th Battalion and the Canadian Corps in the First World War

By: David Campbell

The 19th Battalion was an infantry unit that fought in many of the deadliest battles of the First World War. Hailing from Hamilton, Toronto, and other communities in southern Ontario and beyond, its members were ordinary men facing extraordinary challenges at the Somme, Vimy Ridge, Passchendaele, Amiens, and other battlefields on Europe’s Western Front. Through his examination of official records and personal accounts, the author presents vivid descriptions and assessments of the rigours of training, the strains of trench warfare, the horrors of battle, and the camaraderie of life behind the front lines. From mobilization in 1914 to the return home in 1919, Campbell reveals the unique experiences of the battalion’s officers and men and situates their service within the broader context of the battalion’s parent formations—the 4th Infantry Brigade and the 2nd Division of the Canadian Corps. Readers will gain a fuller appreciation of the internal dynamics of an infantry battalion and how it functioned within the larger picture of Canadian operations.

The First World War: Teach Yourself

By: David Evans

The Teach Yourself History series offers an alternative to academic historical books, its content being extensive yet extremely accessible and the approach refreshingly different. The books are informative and compelling, and engage the reader from beginning to end. They assume no prior historical knowledge, and are full of anecdotes and details that provide a very personal appeal. Teach Yourself The First World War covers all aspects of the war from an international perspective. It follows its key developments, including the build up to the war, how it developed and the role of the different countries involved. It considers many intriguing aspects of the war, including life in the trenches, spies and espionage, the role of women, propaganda, weapons of war and the loss of life. It looks at the impact of the war on those involved and questions why Germany lost the war. The aim throughout is to give you a better understanding of the events that ultimately led to the slaughter of some nine million men and left a further twenty-nine million either wounded or missing.

A Happy Pocket Full of Money, Expanded Study Edition

Infinite Wealth and Abundance in the Here and Now

By: David Cameron Gikandi

This is the book that has served as an entry point to the Law of Attraction for thousands of readers throughout the world. David Gikandi starts with basics. Wealth is not about having buckets of cash--although that might be a by-product of wealth. True wealth understands the value within. True wealth flows out of developing "wealth consciousness." True wealth flows out of internalizing the mantra: "I am wealth. I am abundance. I am joy." To help people better understand and utilize this simple system, a 16-page study guide has been added to the original text, making it the ultimate self-help book.

Unto a Good Land

A History of the American People

By: David Edwin Harrell,John B. Boles,Sally Foreman Griffith

Unto a Good Land offers a distinctive narrative history of the American people -- from the first contacts between Europeans and North America's native inhabitants, through the creation of a modern nation, to the standing of the United States as a world power. Written by a team of distinguished historians led by David Edwin Harrell, Jr. and Edwin S. Gaustad, this textbook shows how grasping the uniqueness of the bAmerican experimentb depends on understanding the role of religion as well as social, cultural, political, and economic factors in shaping U.S. history. A common shortcoming of most United States history textbooks is that while, in recent decades, they have expanded their coverage of social and cultural history, they still tend to shortchange the role of religious ideas, practices, and movements in the American past. "Unto a Good Land addresses this shortcoming in a balanced way. The authors recognize that religion is only one of many factors that have influenced our past -- one, however, that has often been neglected in textbook accounts. This volume gives religion its appropriate place in the story. "Unprecedented coverage of the forces that have shaped the history of the United States While none of America's rich history is left out, this volume is the first U.S. history textbook to give serious attention to the religious dimension of American life. This textbook is not a religious history; instead, it offers an account of American history that includes religious ideas, practices, and movements whenever they played a shaping role. "Comprehensive and current This volume traces the American story from the earliest encounters between the first North Americaninhabitants and Europeans through the 2004 presidential election. Complete and balanced treatment is also given to issues of gender, race, and ethnicity, as well as cultural, political, and economic forces. "A clear and compelling narrative The authors are more than expert historians; they are also talented writers who recognize history to be the retelling of human life. United by a seamless narrative structure, these chapters restore the bstoryb to history. "Multiple formats specially designed for flexible classroom use "Unto a Good Land is available as a single hardcover edition or as two paperback volumes, offering maximum flexibility when adapting curriculum for one- and two-semester courses in U.S. history. The two paperback volumes can be used for U.S. history survey courses divided at 1865 or 1900 -- or at any date in between. "Informative special features to complement the text In addition to the book's exceptional narrative, an array of special features enhances the instructional value of the text and points students to resources for further study. "Includes assistance for teaching and test preparation The instructor's manual for "Unto a Good Land provides helpful suggestions for lesson plans and assignments, and the test bank provides multiple-choice and essay questions for use as study aids, quizzes, or tests. "Suitable for instruction at both secular and religious colleges and universities Drawing on their experience in both secular and religious schools, the authors have ensured that this textbook is suitable for U.S. history classes in a wide variety of settings.

Becoming An Insightful Leader

Charting Your Course to Purposeful Success

By: David Spitulnik

Many of us climb the corporate ladder thinking that we need to be a certain kind of leader. Yet, once we reach the top, we often discover that we need to change that direction. As Spitulnik explains, that's the beauty of becoming an Insightful Leader, a composite entity learning to adapt to different environments, people and challenges rather than applying one leadership style to all scenarios.

The Real Anita Hill

The Untold Story

By: David Brock

Millions of Americans were riveted to the spectacle of a Supreme Court nominee--a black conservative--charged with sexual harassment by a former female employee. Not since the no-holds-barred assault on Robert Bork has the nation been so gripped by a political melodrama. Now journalist David Brock argues that Hill's testimony was a desperate and cynical hoax.

Administrative Law and The Administrative Court in Wales

By: David Gardner

As we progress into the twenty-first century, Wales is acquiring a new identity and greater legislative autonomy. The National Assembly and the Welsh Government have power to create laws specifically for Wales. In parallel, the judicial system in Wales is acquiring greater autonomy in its ability to hold the Welsh public bodies to account. This book examines the principles involved in challenging the acts and omissions of Welsh authorities through the Administrative Court in Wales. It also examines the legal provisions behind the Administrative Court, the principles of administrative law, and the procedures involved in conducting a judicial review, as well as other Administrative Court cases. Despite extensive literature on public and administrative law, none are written solely from a Welsh perspective: this book examines the ability of the Welsh people to challenge the acts and omissions of Welsh authorities through the Administrative Court in Wales.

A Novel of South Africa

By: David Schmahmann

An expatriate South African goes home to find the black woman he loved and left behind in this “engaging . . . Poignant [and] altogether promising debut” (Publishers Weekly). Danny Divin is a young white man in South Africa who enters into an illicit romance with a mixed race schoolgirl, the daughter of a black domestic servant. When social constraints force Danny to end the romance, he travels to America with the hope of starting a new life. There he meets Tesseba, a curious and trusting artist who takes him in and marries him to save him from deportation. The two build a life together, but Danny continues to be plagued by a growing sense of loss. Twenty years later, Danny returns to a “new” South Africa in the hope of saving a family fortune and finding the girl he has never forgotten. “Unexpected, even unforgettable . . . [An] artful battle against cultural and historical amnesia.” —The Washington Post “Schmahmann is adept at blending the personal and the political, and his story manages memorably to evoke his country’s terrible past even as it portrays the tragic difficulties of its present struggles.” —The San Francisco Chronicle “Teaches us volumes about hello and goodbye, holding on and letting go.” —The Christian Science Monitor “All of Schmahmann’s characters . . . long for a past that can no longer exist—a longing [he] elucidates with bittersweet grace.” —The Baltimore Sun “A South African Gone with the Wind.” —Library Journal “Brings characters, family tensions and racial complexities alive in just a line or two.” —Seattle Times “It bristles with tension and suspense and is remarkably authentic.” —Desmond M.

A Bibliography

By: Andrew David Irvine

The definitive bibliography of Canada’s Governor General’s Literary Awards Alice Munro, Michael Ondaatje, Margaret Atwood, Antonine Maillet, Carol Shields, Marie-Claire Blais, Gilles Vigneault... For over three quarters of a century, the Governor General’s Literary Awards have been instrumental in recognizing many of Canada’s best authors, illustrators and translators. The result is impressive: between 1936 and 2017, 705 titles have been recognized with this prestigious award. With careful attention to detail, Andrew Irvine presents the history and evolution of the Awards and extols their importance for the careers of authors, illustrators and translators, as well as for the development of Canada’s national literature. The heart of the book contains the first comprehensive bibliography of the awards, including the first list of winning books organized according to their historically correct award categories; information about five books wrongly omitted from previous lists of winning titles; detailed information about award ceremonies, film adaptations and jury members; and other key information. This is a seminal work that belongs on the shelf of every scholar and every lover of Canadian literature. This book is published in English. - Une bibliographie incontournable des Prix littéraires du Gouverneur général du Canada Alice Munro, Margaret Atwood, Antonine Maillet, Carol Shields, Marie-Claire Blais, Michael Ondaatje, Gilles Vigneault...
