Hatteras

By: Thomas W. Hall

Another beautiful day in sunny Newport Beach, and Lance, a private investigator, takes time out to get some information from a local travel agency. Normally a peaceful community, not counting the tourists, all sorts of craziness interrupts his morning. Who holds up a travel agency? At least that is what appears to be happening. Lance's Army Ranger skills come in handy when he has to defend himself and others, taking out all three thugs. Not a simple robbery or holdup, he finds out, as he gets more of the back story from the agency owner, who happens to be a lovely lady named Jenny. She isn't totally innocent though, as she helps smuggle a couple into the United States. If that's not bad enough, both people turn out to be the parents of an internationally wanted terrorist. Of course, he gets sucked in all the way to help her. Some really nasty mercenaries have arranged this smuggling in order to draw out the terrorist. They hope to capture him for a multimillion-dollar bounty, and they have no qualms about innocent deaths along the way. They've killed many times before. When Jenny is kidnapped and her life is threatened, it gets personal for Lance. Though the local cops are willing to help, these mercenaries are way beyond their capabilities. Lance only sees one way to end this: find the terrorist himself and make life safe again. Lives hang in the balance.

On Call in Hell

A Doctor's Iraq War Story

By: Cdr. Richard Jadick,Thomas Hayden

At age thirty-eight, Navy Dr. Richard Jadick was too old to be called up to the front lines-but not too old to volunteer. This is the inspiring story of one man's decision to enter into the fray-and a compelling account of courage under fire. Both wrenching and uplifting, On Call in Hell is a portrayal of brothers-in-arms that few will be able to forget. Awarded a Bronze Star with a Combat V for valor, Jadick has become a modern American legend-and a true American hero.

The Screaming Room

By: Thomas O'Callaghan

A multimillion-dollar bounty brings out every vigilante in New York . . . “Chilling psychological suspense that will leave you at the edge of your seat.” —Alex Kava, New York Times–bestselling author of the Maggie O’Dell series Tourism in New York City is under siege. Visitors to the Big Apple have become targets of a pair of vengeful twins bent on exacting punishment on total strangers to right the wrongs perpetrated against them in a hellhole they called home. Their audacious killing spree leaves men and women of all ages and ethnicities brutally murdered then scalped, their lifeless forms displayed in macabre fashion at landmarks throughout the metropolis. NYPD Homicide Commander John W. Driscoll, along with his dedicated team of Sgt. Margaret Aligante and Det. Cedric Thomlinson, is determined to bring the pair to justice—as is a despicable grieving father whose idea of justice is at odds with morality itself. By offering a three million dollar bounty, not a cent of which he plans to part with, he’s turned the city into a get-rich-quick circus, with an overzealous mayor acting as ringmaster to please Mr. Moneypockets any way he can. And Driscoll—who’s been assigned the case just hours after he buried his wife—must put his grief on hold and focus on shutting down the twins’ reign of terror by apprehending them before their denouement is dictated by an unscrupulous and unforgiving interloper . . .

The Song of Charlemagne

Book One - The Grail Revelation

By: Thomas F. Motter KSJ

Ganelon had grossly underestimated Roland's savoir faire in the handling of lance and shield under the conditions of a full-on tilt. Figuring Roland would be leaning forward like any novice, Ganelon had decided to aim dead-center on his boss, which, had Roland been assuming such a posture, would have placed the duke's lance at a perfect right angle to Roland's shield maximizing its full impact and most likely unhorsing him. However, Roland was no novice. As Ganelon had lowered his lancepoint early, thus revealing where he'd intended to make his hit, Roland had moved his shield-boss in line to accommodate him. But, in the last moment before impact, Roland had leaned back and braced placing his shield not only on a direct line with the duke's lance-point, but also at a sloping angle upward. The result was as anticipated. The lance glanced harmlessly up and away as he'd completed the pass." The historic events of the period following the fall of the Roman Empire fr om 450 AD to 800 AD are sketchy at best. As such, contemporary historians refer to them as the "Dark Ages". It has been difficult to distinguish myth, legend and folklore fr om the history of the times and modern society has suff ered and continues to this day, to suffer the consequences. Mr. Motter, through scholarly research over more than 20 years has managed to link and make sense out of that which heretofore has been viewed primarily as subject matter for fairy tales. No one really knows the people behind the characters and times in which they lived in "The Song of Roland" and so, when he dies in the Pass at Roncesvalles, it is impossible to understand and appreciate what was lost there. There is no possibility for "Epic Tragedy" as defi ned by Aristotle in his work "The Poetics" resulting in a "catharsis" of pity and fear on the part of the reader. Mr. Motter, in his fi rst of three books in this trilogy, sets about changing all that and, in the process, leads us to an understanding of the role politics and religion have played in the manipulation of the roles of women in society as well as the current conflict between Islam and the West.

Napoleon’s Cavalry: A Key Element to Decisive Victory

By: Major Thomas A. Shoffner

Napoleon’s rise to power in the late eighteenth century occurred at a time when the structure of most European armies was based on the paradigm army of Frederick the Great. Napoleon, however, changed all of this and in a few short years transformed the French army into the most powerful force on the continent of Europe. During the period of 1805 to 1813, Napoleon’s army had no equal with regard to operational effectiveness. Speed and positioning of forces were the two main characteristics that made the French army so successful. These same two characteristics were also inherent to French cavalry units. Thus, the central research question is: What influence did cavalry have upon Napoleon’s operations? To facilitate this study, two campaigns were examined that illustrate cavalry’s impact on Napoleon’s operations. The first campaign was the Jena Campaign of 1806; the second was the Saxony Campaign of 1813. The Jena Campaign demonstrated that with the employment of sufficient and well-trained cavalry, Napoleon could render his victories decisive through the complete destruction of the enemy army. Conversely, the Saxony Campaign demonstrated that without the effective employment of sufficient and well-trained cavalry, Napoleon could not obtain the complete destruction of the enemy army and thus, his victories were hollow, or at best Pyrrhic. Therefore, based on the analysis of these two campaigns, this study has concluded that Napoleon’s cavalry was a key element for Napoleon achieving complete destruction of the enemy army, thus rendering his victories decisive.

Blind Spots

A Novel

By: Thomas Mullen

The pace is fast, the body count significant, the loopholes minor. All this tech-enabled police procedural lacks is a Lennie Briscoe zinger at the beginning. Two guns—I mean thumbs—up." –Wall Street Journal A riveting crime novel with a speculative edge about the ways our perceptions of reality can be manipulated. Seven years ago, everyone in the world went blind in a matter of months. Technology helped people adjust to the new normal, creating a device that approximates vision, downloading visual data directly to people’s brains. But what happens when someone finds a way to hack it and change what people see? Homicide detective Mark Owens has been on the force since before The Blinding. When a scientist is murdered, and the only witness insists the killer was blacked out of her vision, Owens doesn’t believe her—until a similar murder happens in front of him. With suspects ranging from tech billionaires to anti-modernity cultists—and with the bodies piling up—Owens must conduct an investigation in which he can’t even trust his own eyes. Thomas Mullen, the acclaimed author of Darktown and The Last Town on Earth, delivers an unputdownable crime novel about one man's search for truth in a world of surveillance and disinformation that’s all too recognizable.

The Crusades

The War for the Holy Land

By: Thomas Asbridge

Asbridge can't help but tell a ripping yarn, often breezily dramatic, whipping the narrative along' The Times A superb and definitive one-volume account of the Crusades, the impact of which still resonates to this day. In the eleventh century, a vast Christian army, summoned to holy war by the Pope, rampaged through the Muslim world of the eastern Mediterranean, seizing possession of Jerusalem, a city revered by both faiths. Over the two hundred years that followed this First Crusade, Islam and the West fought for dominion of the Holy Land, clashing in a succession of chillingly brutal wars, both firm in the belief that they were at God's work. The Crusades tells the story of this epic struggle from the perspective of both Christians and Muslims, reconstructing the experiences and attitudes of those on either side of the conflict. Mixing pulsing narrative and piercing insight, it exposes the full horror, passion and barbaric grandeur of the crusading era. ‘A dramatic and powerful look at both sides of the story’ Sunday Times 'A compelling narrative... A masterful conclusion' Observer

The Adventures of Goodnight and Loving

By: Leslie Thomas

When George Goodnight, a lawyer on the staff of a London newspaper, finds his marriage has gone sour, his family holiday is cancelled and his car, broken down on the motorway, has been stolen, he walks through a gate in a fence on a summer's day in the middle of England. What he doesn't know, as he takes his first light steps across the sunlit meadows near the tiny village of Somerbourne Magna, is that he is embarking on a course that will take him far away from the country, the surroundings and the way of life he has always known. He is embarking on a journey that will eventually take him to the other side of the world. As in his earlier books, Arthur McCann and All His Women, Bare Nell and Ormerod's Landing, Leslie Thomas shows himself to be a master of the sustained narrative novel of adventure and romance as he evokes his hero's fitful progress round the world. Along the way George has close encounters with storms at sea and in the air; with poverty and despair; with true love and exotic passion. He spends Christmas in prison, encounters a substitute for the son he never had and tracks down a girl who was swopped at birth for some rare stamps. Always he moves on. Sometimes touching, sometimes hilarious, sometimes alarming, the adventures of George Goodnight and his shadowy alter ego, Oliver Loving, represent stages in what is both a quest for excitement and love and a haunting evocation of what happens when a man starts running away from life and can't stop. The descriptions of the cities and villages George travels to and the extraordinary cast of people he encounters are sparkling and authentic. This long, swirling novel, with comedy in its buttonhole and pathos at its heart, is a tour de force and wonderfully enthralling read.

Information Literacy and Information Skills Instruction

New Directions for School Libraries

By: Nancy Pickering Thomas,Sherry R. Crow Ph.D.,Judy A. Henning,Jean Donham Ph.D.

Exploring the ways in which today's Internet-savvy young people view and use information to complete school assignments and make sense of everyday life, this new edition provides a review of the literature since 2010. The development of information literacy skills instruction can be traced from its basis in traditional reference services to its current growth as an instructional imperative for school librarians. Reviewing the scholarly research that supports best practices in the 21st-century school library, this book contains insights into improving instruction across content areas—drawn from the scholarly literatures of library and information studies, education, communication, psychology, and sociology—that will be useful to school, academic, and public librarians and LIS students. In this updated fourth edition, special attention is given to recent studies of information seeking in changing instructional environments made possible by the Internet and new technologies. This new edition also includes new chapters on everyday information seeking and motivation and a much-expanded chapter on Web 2.0. The new AASL standards are included and explored in the discussion. This book will appeal to LIS professors and students in school librarianship programs as well as to practicing school librarians.
