The Siege of Masada: A Historical Drama of the Famous Battle Between the Jews and Romans by Charles River Editors (166 Reviews)    Price verified 44 minutes ago

*Includes pictures of Masada and other important places and events *Includes a table of contents *Includes a bibliography of other books about Masada "Since we long ago resolved never to be servants to the Romans, nor to any other than to God Himself, Who alone is the true and just Lord of mankind, the time is now come that obliges us to make that resolution true in practice... We were the very first that revolted, and we are the last to fight against them; and I cannot but esteem it as a favor that God has granted us, that it is still in our power to die bravely, and in a state of freedom." - Elazar ben Yair Many Westerners have never even heard of the Siege of Masada, and those who have may simply know it as an obscure reference to a minor battle fought in a remote location of the Roman world. By contrast, virtually all Israeli school children know the story of Masada as a premier example of nationalistic pride. According to historian Klara Palotai, "Masada became a symbol for a heroic 'last stand' for the State of Israel and played a major role for Israel in forging national identity" Indeed, the heroic story of a small band of fighters facing incalculable odds has many elements that are reminiscent of both the Battle of Thermopylae and the Battle of the Alamo. The refrain "Masada shall not fall again," coined in a poem on the subject by Yitzak Lamdan, became a cry of resolve in battle for Israeli soldiers in the 20th century, just as the cry of "Remember the Alamo" had galvanized Americans. For decades, the Israelite military used the site of Masada as the location for swearing in their new recruits, and the choice of the site was obviously designed to evoke within the new soldiers a deep sense of connection with their national history. The Siege of Masada was the final battle in a long series of fights that constituted the First Jewish-Roman War. The Roman Empire had established control over the region in the 1st century BCE, when the Roman proconsul ...

Keep Your Eyes on the Flag by Lucille Frazier Burgio (29 Reviews)    Price verified one hour ago

August 1959. Ex-GI and Arabian Horse Breeder, Christopher Roberts senses something unnervingly familiar about Republican Presidential Nominee, Ashe Litton Upton during a rally in a local park in Cottonwood, New Mexico. Besides the alarming coincidence of possessing the same name of an American Army officer and Nazi Collaborator long believed murdered by Russian soldiers at the end of WWII, it isn't until they lock eyes at the rally and a hateful recognition surfaces. When an assassin's bullet misses the rancher's head by a mere few inches, Christopher realizes they are one and the same. Failing in the assassin attempt of Christopher Roberts, Upton's long-standing association with Jules Wong, his personal mechanic for hire, is shot and left for dead by Upton. Wong, barely surviving the assassination attempt, and fixated on revenge goes dark with an impromptu journey to New Mexico. There, he introduces himself as "Zephyr," his well-honed nom de guerre in the 'cleaning' community, and shows Roberts a 'hit-list' that reveals the rancher's name as one of the last remaining survivors from Christopher's old unit familiar with Upton's list of war crimes against the United States. Wong informs Roberts that the last key witness, holding Upton's darkest secret, is in hiding at the U.S. Consulate in Frankfort, Germany and remains the most important living witness capable of stopping Upton from plunging the nation into chaos.

A Gracious Enemy & After the War Volume One by Michael G Kramer OMIEAust. (19 Reviews)    Price verified one hour ago

The Allied war effort in Indochina (the French colonies of Cambodia, Laos and Vietnam) was a war of aggression which allowed many millions of US dollars of arms sales. All allied service men that I cam into contact with did their duties to the best of their abilities. As an Australian serving with the First Battalion Royal Australian Regiment in Vietnam during 1968 - 1969, I feel that it is my duty to inform readers of how the Australian infantry soldiers saw the war and how they felt about fighting the Vietnamese. Because of the fact that this story is so vast, I am splitting the full story into two volumes. "A Gracious Enemy & After the War Volume One cover events in Indochina from 1770 to 1975, when the Americans withdrew from Vietnam after loosing more than 50,000 war dead. It must be remembered that the US army has a rate of 10 soldiers in support for every "Grunt" at the "Sharp End". When viewed in this way, the American KIA figure for the the Twelve years of US involvement is extremely high. After the American withdrawal in 1975, the Vietnamese Army invaded Kampuchea and removed the Pol Pot Regime from power. The yet to be completed "A Gracious Enemy & After the War Volume Two", deals with events in and outside of Vietnam after 1975 and includes the arrival and successful integration into Australian society of the Vietnamese Boat People

It is an exotic blend of Indiana Jones action and pulp fiction adventure laced with mystery and romance. Chapter 5 Neptune's Trident Java, Indonesia Hole 4 As soon as the troupe exited the forest, the apes disappeared. The countryside ended in a cliff. The coastline was awash with billows and waves. The faint scent of freshly cut grass filled the air. The players breathed a sigh of relief. None too soon, Lexi announced to the teams, "Welcome to the fourth hole. This magnificent place is called Neptune's Trident in the native tongue, because of the three points of land that arise from the sea. Yet every wave continually tries to reclaim the precious land. It is 313 yards and a par 4. Although its length and breadth is not particularly demanding; the hole is quite intimidating. Each player must try to close their ears to the constant din. The wind shrieks through the stony chasms and the tide surges like a roaring lion." Dixie waved both of her hands over her head for attention before she said, "An exquisite shot from the tee must have perfect timing. The hole must be played courageously with a fast pace. Too slow and you will be going for a swim. Do not fear. Your caddies are excellent swimmers." The golf course was created from lava formations as the island arose from the sea over a millennium ago. The 4th hole had been carved out of the cliffs by the pounding sea and cutting winds. With the ground a bare ten to twenty feet above sea level, it was a wonder of nature. The tee area was a spit of land no bigger than the base of a light house. The wind rushed over the shore like a horizontal tornado. The sea spray made everyone thirsty for dry land.

The Adventures of Brother Arcadius and Pangur Ban: 11 Tales by Margaret Nagel (Neverwert Press) (70 Reviews)    Price verified 4 hours ago

"Margaret Nagel delivers a likable, funny and, above all, believable protagonist in this delightful story brimming with captivating characters... Thankfully, Brother Arcadius is only 20 at the end of the book's final tale which should leave time for many more adventures in what is sure to be a much-anticipated sequel." - BlueInk starred review Not a children's book in spite of its readability and appearance, The Adventures of Brother Arcadius and Pangur Ban deals light handedly with the hardships and hazards of the 9th century AD. Serious, dutiful, and naive Brother Arcadius, a young monk, sets out from his native Dublin to take up life at the remote Alpine monastery of Spiritus Sanctus. On the first stage of his long journey, the ocean crossing from Ireland to England, he rouses himself from sea sickness long enough to rescue a stow-away kitten from death at the hands of a wrathful sailor. He gives the kitten the Irish name of Pangur Ban and takes it with him to his destination, which turns out to be not quite your usual monastery - just as Pangur Ban is not quite your usual cat. Eleven interlinked tales recount the adventures of monk and cat over the next four years, and capture the wonderment of a time when, no matter where you lived, much of the rest of the world seemed strange and far away. Readers may know, or may like to know, that sometime during the 9th century, a monk living in what is now Switzerland wrote a poem comparing his own love of scholarship to his cat's love of catching mice. He wrote the poem in Old Irish on a leaf of a manuscript that was otherwise in Latin and Greek. He gave the cat's name as "Pangur Ban," but remained anonymous himself. It is an engaging poem. In modern times, in various translations, it has appeared in many anthologies, and has been an inspiration for much commentary, an animated film, and several books, including The Adventures of Brother Arcadius and Pangur Ban.

Two young Australians, following the Volga River on the small cruise ship Maxim Gorky, rescue an old man drowning in its icy waters. In gratitude he gives them an early 20th Century icon which he swears contains a code giving directions to the hiding place of priceless icons looted from the imperial palace in Saint Petersburg, during the early years of the Russian Revolution, icons which were secreted somewhere within the monastery at Goritsy, a monastery they had passed not long after they had dragged the old man from the river. The lock of one of their suitcases is found to be broken when they arrive back in Australia. Nothing has been stolen. The icon does not seem to have been touched and they mistakenly pass it off as having been done by Customs somewhere within Russia. It is not until the icon is accidentally knocked from a table and pieces fly off that the secret is revealed. The old Cossack was right. There was a secret within the icon. And, foolishly, one of them writes to the old man telling him what they have found, forgetting that the old Russian does not live alone. The decision is made to travel to Russia in the middle of winter and break into the Monastery, into the place where the icons were concealed over a hundred years ago, knowing there is a risk that they might already have been found, but not even thinking that there might be others waiting for them, others who desire the Katerina Triptych, the favourite icon of Catherine the Great, an icon which would be worth millions. It is freezing as they crunch across the frozen lake towards the white walls of the monastery, peering through the misty darkness, searching for the square tower and then the square building described in the sheets of paper taken from the icon. And at last their attention is focussed on the high embrasure through which the old Cossack's grandfather was lifted into the monastery, taking the icons with him. They don't see the two figures far back on the lake, hidden by the mist. ...

The fairway is a Roman aqueduct that spans a canyon. The tee is a platform one thousand feet above the deep valley." Dixie climbed up too and then she proclaimed loud and strong, "The players must strike with a downward angle so that the ball enters the giant stone trough. Be careful that it does not bounce out. It is impossible to play the hole in the valley below the four tier aqueduct. I have it on good report that the valley floor is inhabited by carnivorous reptiles." Hage stood shoulder to shoulder with his partner as he said, "Only a bunch of numbskull Nazis would import killer crocodiles as a hazard for their own golf course." The Score Keepers had decided that it would be fun for the players to play in alphabetical order. So that placed the team of Wild Bill and Woody at the back of the pack along with their current opponents Robby and Hage. The timing was very fortuitous. No sooner had the other teams teed off and then they lost their patience. Aiming at the aqueduct was like trying to thread a needle while balancing on the top of a zeppelin. The men got so frustrated that they began to invent new cuss words. They dared not offend their secret host Mr. Hitler or their armed caddies.

Enigmatic strangers who are not what they seem. The past and present collide on the Island of Euphoria when Sunny McQueen arrives in search of answers. Sunny McQueen is a recent college graduate of the late Eighties. She knows very little about her biological family. She finds herself not quite ready to settle down to the perfect life that her adoptive mother has planned out for her. At least not until she learns more about her own history. Walter Fender was a hotel man of the Fifties. He lived a glamourous life of excesses as he catered to the rich and famous in the Caribbean. But his lifestyle only covered up the regret and heartache that he kept a closely guarded secret. He's related to Sunny, but he died before she was even born. Sunny becomes convinced that if she can uncover the truth of Walter's past, she will discover her future path and a way to move forward. But her search only seems to bring her more and more questions. Her journey leads her into a tangled web of secrets that reach back to the Fifties, when her great uncle roamed the Island of Euphoria. There she meets the charming Brooks Laughton, and brooding Carter Davis, two men who despise each other and always seem to be getting in her way. Brooks is the local celebrity who made the big time and moved away. Carter lives a quiet existence, trying to forget about Brooks and their shared past. Why is someone trying to keep Sunny from getting at the truth? How far will she have to go to find the answers ...

You must put your faith in the old maxim that all shots break toward the water. Bear that in mind and then your score might not result in disaster."

The tee is grassy and the green is too. But the one hundred foot wide fairway is a mile long stretch of golden shoreline. One more thing has been brought to my attention. There have been snake sightings on the shore this morning. So beware if you see a stick moving across the sand toward you. It will probably be a cobra."

Chapter 13 Bog-Man of Loch Ness Inverness, Scotland Hole 12 The Old Gaelic Golf Country Club and the clubhouse from Hell awaited the Americans. Very soon, the players and the hostess were gathered outside of the ancient clubhouse. The rich hostess Deaconess Adrianne had hired the whole course for the day. Score Keeper Lexi lifted her head high as she began, "The next hole on the world golf tour is 876 yards long and a par 5. The Old Man's Cairn actually looks like a green giant lying on his funeral pyre. The rolling hills resemble the dead gargantuan man in eternal repose. The tee on this sloped hillock is his bald head. The long fairway begins with his barrel chest. It divides into two strong arms separated by that copse of trees. The giant's pot belly splits into tree trunk legs on either side of a shallow ravine. And the feet rest upon the footstool of the splendid green." For the benefit of their hostess, Dixie added smoothly, "This is the crown jewel of the Old Gaelic Golf Country Club golf course. The sheer breadth and length is daunting to the sanest of players. These hills are alive. I dare say that every player will give a prayer of thanks when he tops the final hill and then sees the grand clubhouse." On the fairway, the players kept having spooky flashbacks from the haunted round last night. The bull frogs croaking made the women jump. A snake in the grass made the men squeal. The crowd began to laugh at the silly Americans and their incomprehensible fears. A deep mud puddle was mistaken for the man-eating bog monster. Willie swore that he saw bubbles rising from its murky depths. It turned out to be just gas ...

Flesh Machine: The Story by Stjepan Krešimir Kračun (1 Review)    Price verified 9 hours ago

INTRODUCTION A young man is murdered at the subway station in the early hours of the morning. The victim was strangled, skinned, and the perpetrator then proceeded to remove his brain from his skull. The gruesome crime was captured on security cameras, and this leads to a quick arrest of a peculiar man. He calls himself 'the assembly' to which the latest additions were a new brain and skin from the man he had just murdered, or so he claims. Rushing in to unravel this outlandish story is a self-loathing misanthropic lawyer Dave who begins to tell us his story of his encounter with Sam, as 'the assembly' prefers to be called. Dave sees this case as a chance he's been waiting for all his life - to get out of public office (and his own narcissistic mind) and into fame and fortune that he believes will be the solution to all of this life's problems - and he has many - so many that his whole life is one big problem. But our dear Sam has other plans: for himself and Dave. As Dave meets Sam, after reading all the case files about him that defy both science as well as common sense, he is drawn into a conversation he did not expect, but Sam had carefully planned. Who's on the therapist's couch now? If the psychopath becomes the therapist and the common man becomes the psychopath - what is the conclusion? What is the resolution? Dave sets out to reel in a big reward, but he ends up getting more than he bargained for. FROM THE PREFACE Dancing on the edge of order and chaos, logic and paradox, comedy and tragedy, meaning and absurdity - the characters of this story hang in the balance, but not for very long. As I was writing this book and initially aimed to preserve this balance - I decided to identify the end-line of almost all extremes, linger there for awhile in mischievous deliberation, and then not only cross the line but jump over it with a running start and finish it off with a somersault. With that said, it's worth noting that nothing is off-limits in this book. ...
