Sex, violence, daring secret missions, diplomatic back channel maneuvering, thrilling warship battles, intensely loyal friendships bound by blood, chivalrous love affairs, heart wrenching deaths, unimaginable bravery and soulless treachery! All swirled about the nascent United States Navy as she fought her way into existence just ten years after the Revolution. Although there were many larger and more powerful navies in 1794, none were manned by such a thorough cast of brave young gentlemen, eager and destined to travel the world, bringing glory and victory to both themselves and their nation. In their travels across many of the worlds oceans, they would learn and hone their battle skills, transforming their small squadrons of American fighting ships into unstoppable powerhouses. Time and time again, Americas enemies would change their minds by the mouths of their cannon! Just boys as the Navy is formed, they will grow to men at sea, stumbling into love, tests of their honor, new landscapes and thrilling adventures. Some will die, and others will form unbreakable lifelong friendships that will serve them well through three wars. As the navy is slated to do battle with African pirates a world away, Europes larger world war looms into view, ensnaring the men and the nation in a war that may be impossible to win! It will take all their courage, daring and skill with the sword to keep the navy from ceasing to exist, as Americas enemies surround her from all sides!

Savage Seas

A B. A. Savage Novel

By: Joshua MacLeod

Bartholomew August Savage, aka August, is a former Navy SEAL and former French Foreign Legionnaire with a reputation within the higher echelons of society for his marked propensity of waste management. Whether hunting drug lords and child traffickers or saving defenseless children, Mr. Savage is effective and deadly. But even August has ghosts in his past and demons that need to be kept in check. And nothing is more wicked than the peril he must face in Savage Seas. Newly hired for a contract hit by a world power to put an end to another terrorist, Mr. Savage is looking forward to getting his teeth into another mission, but things start going awry, and faster than he could have imagined: his mark was killed seconds before he had the opportunity to strike, a secret meeting between a Russian intelligence officer, a Chinese official, and ISIS terrorists in Shanghai, China. Things aren’t over, though. August encounters missing nuclear warheads, a straw-market of emails leading to ISIS sympathizers, and zealot Americans willing to see the destruction of the UNITED STATES. Each episode seems discrete and separate, yet Mr. Savage finds the timing disturbing. What are the connections? Is he being baited? With the help of his old friend Marcus L. Guerrero, also a former Navy SEAL and a TEU Unit team leader, the two try to figure out where all this activity is headed, but as they both discover, there is no way to predict where the real threat will be: a hashtag clan of ISIS terrorists that the world never saw coming, just like 9/11. When Mr. Savage discovers that America’s military might has been ordered to stand down, he sets out on a mission to do what he does best, kill the enemy and save the innocent. Will this bond of two rough men so devoted to their country be enough that their success literally means saving the United States of America from nuclear fallout?

To Raise and Discipline an Army

To Raise and Discipline an Army

Major General Enoch Crowder, the Judge Advocate General’s Office, and the Realignment of Civil and Military Relations in World War I

By: Joshua Kastenberg

Major General Enoch Crowder served as the Judge Advocate General of the United States Army from 1911 to 1923. In 1915, Crowder convinced Congress to increase the size of the Judge Advocate General's Office—the legal arm of the United States Army—from thirteen uniformed attorneys to more than four hundred. Crowder's recruitment of some of the nation's leading legal scholars, as well as former congressmen and state supreme court judges, helped legitimize President Woodrow Wilson's wartime military and legal policies. As the United States entered World War I in 1917, the army numbered about 120,000 soldiers. The Judge Advocate General's Office was instrumental in extending the military's reach into the everyday lives of citizens to enable the construction of an army of more than four million soldiers by the end of the war. Under Crowder's leadership, the office was responsible for the creation and administration of the Selective Service Act, under which thousands of men were drafted into military service, as well as enforcement of the Espionage Act and wartime prohibition. In this first published history of the Judge Advocate General's Office between the years of 1914 and 1922, Joshua Kastenberg examines not only courts-martial, but also the development of the laws of war and the changing nature of civil-military relations. The Judge Advocate General's Office influenced the legislative and judicial branches of the government to permit unparalleled assertions of power, such as control over local policing functions and the economy. Judge advocates also altered the nature of laws to recognize a person's diminished mental health as a defense in criminal trials, influenced the assertion of US law overseas, and affected the evolving nature of the law of war. This groundbreaking study will appeal to scholars, students, and general readers of US history, as well as military, legal, and political historians.

Victory in Tripoli

How America's War with the Barbary Pirates Established the U.S. Navy and Shaped a Nation

By: Joshua London

At the dawn of a new century, a newly elected U.S. president was forced to confront an escalating series of unprovoked attacks on Americans by Muslim terrorists sworn to carry out jihad against all Western powers. As timely and familiar as these events may seem, they occurred more than two centuries ago. The president was Thomas Jefferson, and the terrorists were the Barbary pirates. Victory in Tripoli recounts the untold story of one of the defining challenges overcome by the young U.S. republic. This fast-moving and dramatic tale examines the events that gave birth to the Navy and the Marines and re-creates the startling political, diplomatic, and military battles that were central to the conflict. This highly interesting and informative history offers deep insight into issues that remain fundamental to U.S. foreign policy decisions to this day.

Human Resource Development

Critical Perspectives and Practices

By: Laura L. Bierema,Jamie L. Callahan,Carole J. Elliott,Tomika W. Greer,Joshua C. Collins

Human Resource Development: Critical Perspectives and Practices is a landmark textbook on HRD scholarship and practice and is a significant departure from the standard HRD texts available. Based on Bierema and Callahan’s framework for critical human resource development, this book develops an understanding of HRD that addresses both key and contested issues of practice associated with relating, learning, changing, and organizing for organizations. This book covers the basic tenets of HRD, interrogates the dominant paradigms and practices of the field, teaches readers how to critically assess HRD practices and outcomes, and provides critical alternatives. The text also addresses HRD as a contested field and the importance for HRD professionals to reflect on their values, maintain their sanity, and retain their employment while attempting to do this difficult work that serves multiple stakeholders. The text weaves in Points to Ponder, Case in Point, and Tips & Tools features and exercises, giving readers an insight into HRD issues across the globe. This critical text offers an exciting alternative to the instrumentalist, managerialist, and masculine perspective of other books. Designed for students and practitioners, this textbook will be essential reading for upper-level courses on human resource development, human resource management, and adult education.

British Antifascism and the Holocaust, 1945–79

By: Joshua Cohen

Write a review Read reviews Take a Quiz Solve Book Puzzle

British Antifascism and the Holocaust, 1945–79

By: Joshua Cohen

British Antifascism and the Holocaust, 1945–79 explores the extent to which the Holocaust has shaped British antifascism. The author tests assertions of an uncomplicated relationship between Holocaust memory and the imperative to resist postwar fascist revivals. For those with a scholarly interest in how antifascists confront their opponents, it is essential to understand whether the Holocaust has always been seen as an insurmountable barrier against fascism: is the idea of the genocide’s constant antifascist ‘use’ actually a dangerous assumption and, if so, what are the implications of this for ‘Antifa’ as its battle with the contemporary far right unfolds? This book provides a political and structural history of the Holocaust’s relationship to antifascist organisations and questions whether networks of solidarity formed around Holocaust memory, including analysing the impact of the genocide in Jewish antifascists’ motivations and rhetoric. It also assesses the Holocaust’s political capital in wider antifascism and connected anti-racism, including in defence of the Black and Asian communities increasingly victimised by fascists over the postwar period. This book will appeal to scholars and students with interests in antifascism, fascism, racism, and Jewish and left-wing history in Britain, and how these intersect with Holocaust consciousness.

Obey the Great Commission

Being Disciples Who Make Disciples

By: Joshua YJ Su

This book is an exposition of the significance of the Great Commission of Christ for Christian life and how it to be properly obeyed. It emphasizes the sovereignty of God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit, over this Commission and the rightful place of the Church as His People in its fulfilment. It addresses the biblical, theological, and ministerial, facets of the Commission. The core of this Commission is being disciples who make disciples for Christ by the Spirit and the Word of God. Obeying the Great Commission is not only the focal task of the Church but the way the Spirit transforms believers to be like Christ and grow towards His fullness. It exposes many misconceptions and misapplications that have seriously hampered the fulfilment of this Commission and how to treat them. It shows the principles and the core processes that are required for its proper realization.

The Throne of Amenkor Trilogy omnibus brings together The Skewed Throne, The Cracked Throne, and The Vacant Throne for the first time. One young girl holds the fate of a city in her hands. If she fails, it spells her doom—and the end of her world. Twice in the history of the city of Amenkor, the White Fire had swept over the land. Over a thousand years ago it came from the east, covering the entire city, touching everyone, leaving them unburned—but bringing madness in its wake, a madness that only ended with the death of the ruling Mistress of the city. Five years ago the Fire came again, and Amenkor has been spiraling into ruin ever since. The city's only hope rests in the hands of a young girl, Varis, who has taught herself the art of survival and has been trained in the ways of the assassin. Venturing deep into the heart of Amenkor, Varis will face her harshest challenges and greatest opportunities. And it is here that she will either find her destiny—or meet her doom.

The Vacant Throne

By: Joshua Palmatier

The city of Amenkor has stood for well over a thousand years as a premier trading center. Ruled by the Mistress of the Skewed Throne, Amenkor has weathered attacks by invaders and the madness, drought, famine, and disease brought by the mysterious White Fire. But now―betrayed from within and barely surviving a devastating attack by the mysterious Chorl―Amenkor reels on the brink of ruin. In Amenkor's time of greatest need, Varis―raised in the slums of the city, and trained not only to survive but to kill at need―has unwillingly become the ruler of the city―the new Mistress of the Skewed Throne. Untrained, unpreparedm and not certain who she can trust, Varis takes the Throne at one of the most perilous points in Amenkor's long history, and is forced to draw on all of Amenkor's limited resources, both ordinary and magical, when the Chorl invade. And perhaps the price Varis pays is too high, as the very heart and soul of Amenkor's power―the Skewed Throne―is destroyed duing the final deserate confrontation with the invaders. Now, with the threat of the CHorl's return still hanging over them, Varis has no choice but to turn to Amenkor's sometime ally, the city of Venitte, home to the only other throne that is a repository of magical power. Yet Varis and the people of Amenkor are not the only ones looking toward Venitte. The Chorl invaders are on the march, and whether Venitte will fare any better against the Chorl than Amenkor remains to be seen.

Forgotten Voices of the Blitz and the Battle For Britain

A New History in the Words of the Men and Women on Both Sides

By: Joshua Levine

Drawing material from the Imperial War Museum's extensive aural archive, Joshua Levine brings together voices from both sides of the Blitz and the Battle of Britain to give us a unique, complete and compelling picture of this turbulent time. In June 1940, British citizens prepared for an imminent German onslaught. Hitler's troops had overrun Holland, Belgium and France in quick succession, and the British people anticipated an invasion would soon be upon them. From July to October, they watched the Battle of Britain play out in the skies above them, aware that the result would decide their fate. Over the next nine months, the Blitz killed more than 43,000 civilians. For a year, the citizens of Britain were effectively front-line soldiers in a battle which united the country against a hated enemy. We hear from the soldiers, airmen, fire-fighters, air-raid wardens and civilians, people in the air and on the ground, on both sides of the battle, giving us a thrilling account of Britain under siege. With first-hand testimonies from those involved in Dunkirk and the Battle of Britain, Black Saturday on 7th September 1940 when the Luftwaffe began the Blitz, to its climax on the 10th May 1941, this is the definitive oral history of a period when Britain came closer to being overwhelmed by the enemy than at any other time in modern history.

Try to Run

By: Joshua Green

For those classified as morbidly obese, it has always been their body, choice, and life. If others don’t like it, that is their business—except it is their business now. Sadly, times have changed for those who appear unable to care for themselves and deemed to be a drain on the system. Growing pressure to galvanize the population for the harsh conditions of a new world has led to changes in laws. Those who cannot reduce their bulk to the government-ordained targets are imprisoned in life centers where they must remain until they are deemed healthy again. Naturally this decision prompts outrage and furious debate about freedom and life choices. Feeders, normally labeled as caring enablers, are now classified as abusers and treated as criminals. As the brave stand up to outrageous new laws on behalf of their partners, they must go underground or on the run to evade the law. But will they find a way around all their obstacles? In this science fiction novel, death and loss surround a changed world as its inhabitants battle a principle worth fighting for amid hunger, illness, guilt, past demons, and a heatwave.
