Vicksburg Is the Key

The Struggle for the Mississippi River

By: William L. Shea,Terrence J. Winschel

The struggle for control of the Mississippi River was the longest and most complex campaign of the Civil War. It was marked by an extraordinary diversity of military and naval operations, including fleet engagements, cavalry raids, amphibious landings, pitched battles, and the two longest sieges in American history. Every existing type of naval vessel, from sailing ship to armored ram, played a role, and military engineers practiced their art on a scale never before witnessed in modern warfare. Union commanders such as Grant, Sherman, Farragut, and Porter demonstrated the skills that would take them to the highest levels of command. When the immense contest finally reached its climax at Vicksburg and Port Hudson in the summer of 1863, the Confederacy suffered a blow from which it never recovered. Here was the true turning point of the Civil War. ø This fast-paced, gripping narrative of the Civil War struggle for the Mississippi River is the first comprehensive single-volume account to appear in over a century. Vicksburg Is the Key: The Struggle for the Mississippi River tells the story of the series of campaigns the Union conducted on land and water to conquer Vicksburg and of the many efforts by the Confederates to break the siege of the fortress. William L. Shea and Terrence J. Winschel present the unfolding drama of the campaign in a clear and readable style, correct historic myths along the way, and examine the profound strategic effects of the eventual Union victory.

The Johnson Method

Guidebook For New Tractor-Trailer Drivers

By: Terrence Johnson

Driving tractor-trailers - a seemingly simple activity, but in reality, a complex system of moving goods from one location to another. Driving tractor-trailers - not just a job or profession, but an experience. It will change your life. But it is not short of challenges (and a sharp learning curve). Many who step foot through those doors come to the conclusion that they made the right choice by going to a trucking school and getting a CDL, until they begin driving and realize the industry (and driving tractor-trailers) is a lot different than they were expecting. In this guidebook I will share with you The Johnson Method, a tried, true, and actually safe driving performance I learned, personally use myself, and train others. Learn everything from greasing the 5th wheel, sliding tandems, how to properly perform an alley dock, drop trailers, hook trailers, sliding the 5th wheel, how to use a weigh scale, keeping your paychecks high (and your work easy), and much more! Learn all the things they don’t teach in trucking school, and gain insight on how your job will be like in the real world, on and off the highway.

The Meaning of Superhero Comic Books

By: Terrence R. Wandtke

For decades, scholars have been making the connection between the design of the superhero story and the mythology of the ancient folktale. Moving beyond simple comparisons and common explanations, this volume details how the workings of the superhero comics industry and the conventions of the medium have developed a culture like that of traditional epic storytelling. It chronicles the continuation of the oral/traditional culture of the early 20th century superhero industry in the endless variations on Superman and shows how Frederic Wertham's anti-comic crusade in the mid-1950s helped make comics the most countercultural new medium of the 20th century. By revealing how contemporary superhero comics, like Geoff Johns' Green Lantern and Warren Ellis's The Authority, connect traditional aesthetics and postmodern theories, this work explains why the superhero comic book flourishes in the "new traditional" shape of our acutely self-conscious digital age.

Sustainable

Moving Beyond ESG to Impact Investing

By: Terrence Keeley

Should business and finance play larger roles in resolving the great social and environmental challenges of our time? Proponents of environmental, social, and governance (ESG) investing say yes. They argue that ESG financial strategies can help reverse runaway carbon emissions and fix income and gender inequalities, among other ills. ESG-integrated investments already encompass more than $120 trillion in financial assets. Are they working as promised? If not, how can they be improved? In Sustainable, a finance-industry veteran offers an insider’s look at the promises, prospects, and perils of ESG investing. Terrence Keeley argues that many ESG advocates have been overly optimistic about what it can accomplish. Divestment threats are ineffective tools for altering corporate behavior, and verifiably “good” companies do not systematically generate great returns. Most importantly, business and finance cannot cure social ills on their own: regulators, public policies, civil society, and individuals must all play specific, complementary roles to shape the future we want. Keeley provides comprehensive solutions that would promote more inclusive, sustainable growth. In particular, he recommends reallocating capital from some indexed products toward an emerging class of strategies with more verifiable social and environmental benefits. Keeley identifies dozens of alternative “impact investing” strategies that could generate true double bottom lines. He also highlights promising civic organizations with proven methodologies for achieving widely shared benefits at scale. Proposing practical, actionable, and in many cases profitable solutions to social and environmental problems, Sustainable offers an incisive vision of the roles business and finance can and should play in building a flourishing society.

Reframing Organizations

Artistry, Choice, and Leadership

By: Lee G. Bolman,Terrence E. Deal

Set aside trends to focus on the fundamentals of great leadership Reframing Organizations provides time-tested guidance for more effective organizational leadership. Rooted in decades of social science research across multiple disciplines, Bolman and Deal's four-frame model has continued to evolve since its conception over 25 years ago; this new sixth edition has been updated to include coverage of cross-sector collaboration, generational differences, virtual environments, globalization, sustainability, and communication across cultures. The Instructor's guide has been expanded to provide additional tools for the classroom, including chapter summary tip sheets, mini-assessments, Bolman & Deal podcasts, and more. These recent revisions reflect the intersection of reader recommendations and the current leadership environment, resulting in a renewed practicality and even greater alignment with everyday application. Combining the latest research from organizational theory, organizational behavior, psychology, sociology, political science and more, the model detailed here provides real guidance for real leaders. Guide, motivate, and inspire your team's best performance as you learn to: Optimize group, team, and organizational structure Build a positive, collaborative dynamic across generations, teams, and sectors Understand power and conflict amidst the internal and external political landscape Shape your organization's culture and build a cohesive sense of spirit Bolman and Deal's four-frame model has withstood the test of time because it offers an accessible, compact, and powerful set of ideas for navigating complexity and turbulence. In today's business climate, leadership trends come and go; today's flash in the pan is tomorrow's obsolete strategy, but a leadership framework built on a solid foundation will serve your organization well no matter what the future holds. Reframing Organizations provides clear guidance and up-to-date insight for anyone facing the challenges of contemporary leadership.

Clear Heads and Holy Hearts

The Religious and Theological Ideal of John Henry Newman

By: Terrence Merrigan

Clear Heads and Holy Hearts is an examination of John Henry Newman's vision of the way in which the individual believer and the community of the Church grow in faith and the knowledge of religious truth. The ideal, at both the individual and the communal level, involves, for Newman, a union of ethical and devotional praxis on the one hand and critical self-reflection on the other - in short, the union of "clear heads and holy hearts". Terrence Merrigan is a member of the Faculty of Theology of the Katholieke Universiteit Leuven (Louvain), Belgium. He pursued his doctoral studies on Newman under the direction of Jan Hendrik Walgrave. He has published a number of studies on Newman and edited a special centenary issue of "Louvain Studies" (1990) dedicated to the Cardinal's life and thought.

Thalamocortical Assemblies

Sleep spindles, slow waves and epileptic discharges

By: Alain Destexhe,Terrence Sejknowski

During sleep, the mammalian brain generates an orderly progression of low frequency oscillations as the brain moves from sleep onset into deep sleep. This book explores the underlying neural mechanisms involved in generating these oscillations through interacting neural assemblies in the thalamus and the cortex. Sleep spindles are involved in the consolidation of experiences in long-term memory during sleep. Written by two leading experts in the field, this book integrates the properties of ion channels, synaptic interactions, and intrinsic cellular mechanisms into biophysical models of neural oscillations in local circuits and distributed networks. In particular, the book focuses on sleep spindles and how they are highjacked by epileptic seizures Reissued in paperback after being unavailable for many years, this revised edition of Thalamocortical Assemblies includes updates to each chapter, highlighting developments since its first publication. The book will be valuable to neuroscientists, neurobiologists, physiologists and computational researchers interested in sleep and memory processes.

University Sheepdog in Westwood, L.A.

By: Terrence Duren

Retired UCLA Police Officer, Terrence Duren, at the center of the 2006 UCLA Taser Incident, writes his memoir, “University Sheepdog in Westwood, Los Angeles" to set the record straight regarding his life and law enforcement career. There were television news reports and articles written about the Taser incident and of Terrence Duren's past. Some of these news reports and articles were unflattering and did not paint a complete picture of him and other officers involved in the Taser incident. In addition to the protests held at UCLA and other UC campuses, there were high volume of telephone calls to UCLA with people voicing their anger and support over the Taser incident. These telephone calls came from people living in the United States and abroad. There was such a high volume of phone calls that UCLA’s telecommunications nearly broke down. After a complete and thorough investigation, the UCLA police chief as well as UCLA campus administrators, concluded that Officer Duren did not violate policy with his use of the Taser. "University sheepdog in Westwood, Los Angeles" is a memoir that gives a better understanding of Officer Terrence Duren and his former colleagues. This memoir is a story of "Sheepdogs" (police officers), protecting the "Sheep" (students\faculty\staff\visitors and others), from the "Wolves" (criminals). Some of the contents in this memoir will tell of Terrence Duren's Officer Involved Shootings, on and off campus, his working undercover for six months buying narcotics from UCLA hospital employees, his confrontation with members of the Nation of Islam, his SWAT standoff with an armed suspect, lewd and lascivious activity in the men's restrooms, his mentoring victims and suspects, flimflammer, and more! Additionally, this Memoir has contents regarding Terrence's childhood growing up around Black Panthers, his service in the United States Marine Corps in peace time and during the First Gulf War. This memoir is unlike any other police story ever told. As you read this memoir, sit down and strap up because you are about to go on a ride!

Fine Lines and Distinctions

Murder, Manslaughter and the Unlawful Taking of Human Life

By: Terrence Morris,Louis Blom-Cooper

Written by two of the UKs leading experts on the law of homicide. Contains new information and analysis. Suggests a radical new solution to the mess which English homicide law has become. In this powerful account, the authors show thatfrom Sir Edward Cokes classic common law definition of murder, through political fixes, poorly thought-out compromises and misguided legislative or Executive tinkeringthe English law of homicide is in a mess. Even the most adept legal minds are faced with what has been described in Parliament as fine lines and distinctions. What must juries make of messy laws and how can anyone have confidence in criminal justice if laws affecting some of the most serious offences in the criminal calendar are deeply flawed? To make matters worse, the entire subject of homicide in England and Wales is further distorted by the existence of the mandatory life sentence for murder. Building on unrivalled knowledge, extensive research, close practical observation and incisive analysis, Professor Terence Morris and Sir Louis Blom-Cooper QC trace the development of the law of homicide from early times to the present day. They counter and dismantle specious arguments for preserving the status quo and point out that only root and branch reform of the basis of liability for homicide and its sentencing regime will serve to restore justice, fairness and political probity. Professor Terence Morris and Sir Louis Blom-Cooper QC are two of the UKs leading experts on the law of homicide, having studied developments together for over 50 years. This has led them to recognise the extent of disquiet, especially following particularly troubling cases and to conclude that the law of homicide in England and Wales is an unsatisfactory law enveloped in a political fix. Their suggestion of a replacement single offence of criminal homicide coupled with abolition of the mandatory life sentence for murder in favour of discretion at the sentencing stage demands close study by judges, lawyers, legislators, academics, penal reformers and anyone who senses that something is seriously amiss. 'This is no dry legal tome. The authors present their case in a bracing, persuasive and highly readable way... This is an important and stimulating work that should engage not just the legal practitioner, politician or law student but anyone concerned with our justice system or puzzled by the conduct and outcome of a murder trial': guardian.co.uk 'Fine Lines and Distinctions prompted me to pay more attention to and reflect further on those who have killed. Though its primary focus is the law - specifically a potentially significant improvement to the law - I also warmly recommend it to anyone interested in lifers': Independent Monitor 'This timely, provocative and certainly topical book puts forward a closely argued and well supported case for encouraging "a root and branch reform of the law of homicide" ... [and] provides ample evidence and ammunition to those who would agree that such a reform should be put in place as a matter of urgency': by Phillip Taylor MBE and Elizabeth Taylor of Richmond Green Chambers.

The Shadow of Black Star

By: Terrence Lynch

The upcoming election in the former iron curtain country of Maldisia has become the focus of intense concern throughout the world. The warlike factions in Moscow will use the country to complete the final link in their insidious nuclear “Ring of Fire.” To accomplish this, their socialist puppets, who are masters of political intrigue, must be kept in power. The US and NATO countries have to rely on this small Eastern European nation’s politically-inexperienced democratic parties to unite and win against overwhelming odds. The democrats’ chances are further diminished by the ominous presence of Black Star, a secret organization of former KGB agents and terrorists. Their psychotic leader, Scorpius, will employ bribery, kidnapping, murder…whatever it takes to achieve the Soviets’ objectives. Desperate to influence the election, the US State Department calls on Marc O’Neill to travel to Maldisia, under cover, and surreptitiously mastermind a campaign for the democrats. O’Neill, a successful election campaign strategist, accepts the challenge, not fully recognizing the extent of the danger involved. Once Scorpius recognizes O’Neill’s true roll, he becomes a highly vulnerable target. His safety depends on the courage and skills of Karl Sabo, a battle-hardened CIA agent assigned to protect him.

The Faithful

By: Terrence L. Rotering

A young boy named Abner lies alone under the stars wondering about his future and what impact his life will have on the world. He can't possibly imagine the plans God has for him and his family, plans that will affect thousands and shape the future of the world. "The Faithful" takes the reader along with Abner and his family as they embark on an epic adventure to find a new home in a strange new land. Along their journey they will witness untold wonders, encounter fantastic creatures, battle ruthless villains, and with the help of angels, struggle against the powerful forces of hell itself, intent on destroying them. The reader is front and center as the spiritual war between good and evil rages in the temporal affairs of men. Intense battles will be fought. Heroes of faith will be revealed. In the end the faithful will stand. Terrence L. Rotering is known for his action-packed novel "STAND" which portrays the eternal struggle between good and evil in both the physical and spiritual realms. "STAND", the second book in the Trinian saga, is described by readers online as thrilling, uplifting, and meaningful Christian fiction; an intriguing story using a C.S. Lewis, J.R.R. Tolkien and Frank Peretti style, having truth solidly imprinted in its DNA. "The Faithful" successfully follows suit, laying the foundation for the Trinian series with an epic serving of mounting suspense, relentless action, and heroic conviction; intent on leaving the reader satisfied, edified, and strengthened in the faith. Terrence Rotering serves his Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, at his local church and in his community. He and his wife Theresa live in Colorado with their two children, Tanner and Thomas. "The Faithful" is the first book in the Chronicles of Trinian series.

Inventing Catholic Tradition

By: Terrence W. Tilley

This creative argument that traditions are neither found nor made, but are invented and reinvented in practice, is carried out in dialogue with scholars such as Yves Congar and George Lindbeck. Tilley examines the actual practices as the bearers of tradition and argues that vibrant and meaningful traditions must be reinvented or reconstructed in every generation. He demonstrates how deliberately invented or imposed traditions are often resisted. Tilley applies his analysis to the Catholic Intellectual Tradition and, in the last chapter, shows how truth, revelation, and authority can be accommodated by a constructivist, practical theology of tradition.

The Black Diamond and the Witch’s Curse

By: Terrence Alexander

To most people, it appears as if Derek James is a typical college freshman. Yes, he is on a football scholarship at one of the most prestigious universities in the country, but other than that, he appears quite ordinary. But there is an extraordinary secret that Derek is harboring: he is a warlock! When he runs into fellow freshmen Matthias, Omar, and Tre’Vell, he is surprised to learn that they are also warlocks! Shortly after they all meet, however, the freshmen start getting attacked by terrifying monsters. Now, the four fast friends must overcome doubts and disagreements in order to discover the source of the attacks. But it may go deeper than any of them realize.

Blood on the Trail

By: Terrence McCauley

“Blood on the Trail is one action-packed, western . . . and Jeremiah Halstead is a lawdog to fog the outlaw trail with!” —Peter Brandvold, author of The Cost of Dying Silver Cloud, Montana. A mining town welcome to all seeking to make their fortune. And a place where a lawman has to watch his back before some hardcase empties his pistol into it. Deputy U.S. Marshal Jeremiah Halstead is escorting notorious outlaw John Hudson across the territory for trial when he’s ambushed by a pack of Hudson’s men anxious to rescue their partner from his custody. Halstead puts the blast on them, but outnumbered and outgunned, he has little choice but to hole up in an old mining town known as Silver Cloud, Montana. It’s a place where he can keep a lock on his prisoner while figuring out how to get past Hudson’s gang alive. But the folks in Silver Cloud are none too happy playing host to the lawman or his kill-crazy prisoner. Unable to trust the sheriff to back his play, Halstead finds himself standing alone against Hudson’s gang as they slip into town, recruiting gunmen to help free their leader. Except for Ed Zimmerman. He’s spent his whole criminal life in John Hudson’s shadow. He wants Hudson dead and buried so he can become the leader of the gang. And if he must, he’ll put everyone in Silver Cloud six feet under—including Deputy U.S. Marshal Halstead . . . Praise for Terrence McCauley “McCauley's Westerns move at a pace that leaves readers sweating and out of breath. Blood on the Trail is one wild, entertaining ride.” —Johnny D. Boggs “A captivating western . . . the setting is harsh and evocative . . . the punches are strong and swift and the bullets whiz by close enough to make readers’ hair stand on end.” —Booklist, STARRED Review for Dark Territory

Ralph Compton Stagecoach to Hell

By: Terrence McCauley,Ralph Compton

An ambush leaves a motley group of stagecoach riders fighting for their lives in this new Ralph Compton Western. A quiet stagecoach run between two Texas towns turns bloody when the riders are attacked by bandits and renegade Comanche. They are forced off the main trail and take cover in an abandoned bunkhouse once used for vaqueros when the land was part of a great estate. The stage was not only hauling a strongbox filled with Army pay, but a couple of dozen crates of new rifles for the cavalry. Unfortunately, the guns are useless as the team's ammunition is limited. Now the besieged stage riders have to join forces to fight off the surrounding desperados. The cast includes a veteran freight driver, an impatient disgraced Army captain looking to regain his standing, a newly promoted sergeant in his first battle, and the man riding shotgun, who has a horrible yet useful set of skills. When a vaquero riding outlier for a cattle drive rides out to investigate the siege on the old bunkhouse, he finds himself in the middle of a pitched battle for survival between the ragtag freighters and desperate outlaws.

A Journey with Spies, Afghans, and Orphans

By: Terrence Douglas

A Journey with Spies, Afghans, and Orphans By: Terrence Douglas Fifteen years ago, author Terrence Douglas accepted a contract to go to Afghanistan and help create an academy for the Afghan intelligence professionals who were charged with defeating Taliban insurgents who threatened the growth of democracy. Upon arriving in Kabul, he was assigned to reside in a “hutch,” a modified shipping container within a fortified compound. His companions were fellow U.S. contractors attracted to the challenging assignment and the pay they were to receive. They were protected twenty-four hours a day by members of the ethnic tribe of the Afghan Intelligence Minister. Any journey outside the compound was in a vehicle protected by professional U.S. security contractors. The isolation of the assignment and the environment caused much reflection. This book is the result of Terrence’s time spent alone in his hutch, socializing with fellow Americans in a confined environment, the close professional relationships developed with his Afghan hosts, and instructing the Afghans who yearned for a free environment to raise their families.
