This Quest For That Final Horizon
Author: Derrick La Saga
Publisher: Lulu.com
ISBN: 099367920X
Category : Poetry
Languages : en
Pages : 263
Book Description
""This Quest For That Final Horizon"" was written over a 15 year period from 1999-2014; It's about real people and real situations, none of it is about or inspired by fiction. Topics like salvaging friends, urging someone who is hurting to open up about their pain, trying to escape our own guilty conscious, letting go of someone we love because we know in our hearts that life with them will stop progressing forward and accepting that the people who have deeply wronged us, sometimes, will never give an explanation are just a few examples of the topics explored in this collection that has been praised by published authors such as Richard Van Camp (The Lesser Blessed) and David Malcolm (Pine Cones and Small Stones). There was not an intention or effort to have anything come across as sophisticated, complex or accomplished - but rather familiar, understood, and even soothing.

The Last Lion: Volume 2
Author: William Manchester
Publisher: Little, Brown
ISBN: 0316244872
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 754
Book Description
The second volume of William Manchester's masterful account of Winston Churchill's life. Alone is the second volume of William Manchester's brilliant three-volume biography of Winston Churchill. In this volume, we witness the war within, before the colossal war to come. During this period, Churchill was tested as few men are: relentlessly pursued by creditors, disowned by his own party, vociferously dismissed by the press as a warmonger, and twice nearly lost his seat in Parliament. Yet despite his personal and political troubles, Churchill managed to assemble a vast, underground intelligence network-both within the British government and on the continent-which provided him with more complete and accurate information on Germany than the British government. Recognizing the horrifying truth, Churchill stood almost alone against Nazi aggression and the sordid British and French policy of appeasement. Manchester's luminous portrait never loses sight of Churchill the man-a man with limitations, especially his callousness toward others (including his supporters) and his recklessness, which could border on the foolhardy; but also a man whose vision was global and whose courage was boundless. Here is Churchill as a light in the approaching darkness, readying himself for the terrible stand to come.
