Founded in 1948, the Israeli Air Force has seen involvement in some of the most dramatic and important conflicts of post–World War II history. In action during the Suez crisis and on call during the Gulf War, the Force continued to see active deployment right through to the 2006 Lebanon War and beyond into recent conflicts in Gaza. This is a timely release, which sets recent events in historical context, and illustrates these key operations with a range of impressive color photographs, many of which have never been published before. Don McCarthy is an established and well-respected aviation historian and as such is particularly well placed to produce such a work. Controversial contemporary conflicts between Israel and Iran make the publication of this record particularly pertinent, illustrating the history of these ongoing disputes and the conflicts that prefigured them. Included are images of iconic relics such as the historic Mirage and Skyhawk, as well as photographs of modern craft such as F-15s and F-16s. This library of images work to paint an engaging history of this Force, a presence in the skies for more than sixty-five years. Skyhorse Publishing, as well as our Arcade imprint, are proud to publish a broad range of books for readers interested in history--books about World War II, the Third Reich, Hitler and his henchmen, the JFK assassination, conspiracies, the American Civil War, the American Revolution, gladiators, Vikings, ancient Rome, medieval times, the old West, and much more. While not every title we publish becomes a New York Times bestseller or a national bestseller, we are committed to books on subjects that are sometimes overlooked and to authors whose work might not otherwise find a home.

This title will be of particular interest to students of linguistics.
“Engrossing . . . A lengthy review of the events of the final days of Robert E. Lee’s Army of Northern Virginia and the road to Appomattox” (Mark Silo, author of The 115th New York in the Civil War). The Battle of Five Forks broke the long siege of Petersburg, Virginia, triggered the evacuation of Richmond, precipitated the Appomattox Campaign, and destroyed the careers and reputations of two generals. Michael J. McCarthy’s Confederate Waterloo is the first fully researched and unbiased book-length account of this decisive Union victory and the aftermath fought in the courts and at the bar of public opinion. When Gen. Phil Sheridan’s forces struck at Five Forks on April 1, the attack surprised and collapsed Gen. George Pickett’s Confederate command and turned General Lee’s right flank. An attack along the entire front the following morning broke the siege and forced the Virginia army out of its defenses and, a week later, into Wilmer McLean’s parlor to surrender at Appomattox. Despite this decisive Union success, Five Forks spawned one of the most bitter and divisive controversies in the postwar army when Sheridan relieved Fifth Corps commander Gouverneur K. Warren for perceived failures connected to the battle. McCarthy’s Confederate Waterloo is grounded upon extensive research and a foundation of primary sources, including the meticulous records of a man driven to restore his honor in the eyes of his colleagues, his family, and the American public. The result is a fresh and dispassionate analysis that may cause students of the Civil War to reassess their views about some of the Union’s leading generals. “A detailed, scholarly analysis of one of the final battles of the American Civil War . . . A studious, unbiased account of the entire affair.” —Midwest Book Review

This deeply personal book tells the untold story of the significant contributions of technical professionals from the former Soviet Union to the US innovation economy, particularly in the sectors of software, social media, biotechnology, and medicine. Drawing upon in-depth interviews, it channels the voices and stories of more than 150 professionals who emigrated from 11 of the 15 former Soviet republics between the 1970s and 2015, and who currently work in the innovation hubs of Silicon Valley and Boston/Cambridge. Using the social science theories of institutions, imprinting, and identity, the authors analyze the political, social, economic, and educational forces that have characterized Soviet immigration over the past 40 years, showing how the particularities of the Soviet context may have benefited or challenged interviewees' work and social lives. The resulting mosaic of perspectives provides valuable insight into the impact of immigration on US economic development, specifically in high technology and innovation.

Any attempt to produce a change of mind or a change in behaviors is doomed to fail given our human natures. While we may have thoughts of creating this process in our personal life, we are unable to sustain our focus given the constant barrage of worldly distractions. Slowly or quickly, our resolve ebbs away, and once more, we’re caught up in the choices that bring pain and shame into our life and the lives of those we love. Nothing changes until we experience a change of heart. This is not an event but rather a journey that guides life and transforms character. This change of heart is a gift that is extended to those who have come to the realization that of themselves, they can do nothing. Surrender is the key word, and that is likely a difficult concept to tolerate in our human condition. Yet as you surrender your will on a regular basis, your life purpose will slowly and consistently be revealed in the opportunities that arise. With each succeeding door that opens, there will come a flow of challenges, blessings and gifts that serve to sustain and nourish continued growth. Out of this process, you will come to fully understand that there is a purpose for life and that the greatest joy comes from fulfilling that promise. This is not a “preachy” book filled with solemn sayings; rather, it is a tribute to Jesus Christ who can work His purpose in any surrendered life. My desire is that you join me on this pathway to personal transformation. Your faith will grow as you come to understand the dynamic of surrender. Out of your faith will grow a new and profound sense of hope that will complete its work in your life. You cannot buy this gift, or steal it as a possession, yet it is offered freely to those who are committed to finding the truth.

This book is written to break the greatest deception the devil (or adversary of God) has ever accomplished among Christians and nations. The devil is known as the Deceiver of Nations. KJV Revelation 12: And the great dragon was cast out, that old serpent, called the Devil, and Satan, which deceiveth the whole world: he was cast out into the earth, and his angels were cast out with him. This specific deception has been missed by every nation. The devil (adversary of God) worked this deception with his usual intent. KJV John 10: The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly. The devils MO or Mode of Operation is to steal, kill and destroy. It was his intent to hide the Eleventh Commandment, just so he (the devil), could steal, kill, and destroy God-kind. But God came that you might have life and have it more abundantly. Which would you rather have? Did you know that if you a leader of the church you will be responsible for breaking commandments of God (Exodus 32)? This is call to break the deception devil has woven. My impression from the Lord is over a Billion souls at stake. There are over a Billion souls both in the churches and still lost that this can and will affect.

What is AutoCAD? With well over 200,000 copies of the program sold, AutoCAD is the world's most popular computer aided drafting package for the personal computer (PC). It is a fully functional2D CAD program. Full 3D wire frame representa tion was incorporated in the program with the launch of Release 10 in 1988. Its popularity has made AutoCAD the de facto industry standard for PC-CAD with a host of other program developers providing application software confor ming to the AutoCAD format. As a fully functional drafting program, AutoCAD can achieve anything that can be drawn on a drawing board. The main benefits of CAD come more from being able to edit and exchange drawing information rapidly rather than simply replacing the drawing board. Starting to use AutoCAD is a difficult step as it requires a certain amount of new skill development. Once you have made the commitment to learn how to use the program and implement it in your every day work the benefits will soon accrue. You will quickly discover that there are many things that you can do with AutoCAD that you could never do with a drawing board.
