Arms for America
Author: Lion Feuchtwanger
Publisher: Makom Publications
ISBN: 9780615891040
Category :
Languages : en
Pages : 634
Book Description
A master novelist-historian has here produced a new landmark, one of the towering historical novels of our time-a full, rich, inspiring and exciting story set in one of the most fascinating periods in history. The most imaginative of novelists could not invent anything approaching the color and enchantment of the French court under Louis xvi and his Antoinette. At the time of our story, the shadow of revolution had not yet grayed the splendors of Versailles, although the cold wind of impending change was occasionally felt along its corridors. United States had already revolted against royal tyranny, and Benjamin Franklin was in France, pitting his wisdom and patience against subtle and devious French diplomacy in the all-important negotiations for the arms and money without which the American Revolution might end in disaster. Pierre Caron de Beaumarchais, the worldly author of The Barber of Seville and The Marriage of Figaro, shares the limelight with Franklin. Mixture of avarice and idealism, petty weaknesses and fiery spirit, lover of liberty but equally enamored of intrigue and alliance, Beaumarchais provides an elegant foil for the American's wily good humor and quiet pertinacity. Both worked with all the devotion and strength of their souls for the same cause-liberty, equality, and fraternity, though each approached the problem from a different angle, each the quintessence of the characteristics of his own nation. The featured cast of characters:- Antoinette, beautiful, willful, extravagant, and lovable,surely one of the loneliest of queens, surrounded as she was by the fabulous profligates and wasters and self-seekers that made up the chic Lilac Coterie- Louis XVI, weak, petulant, a sorry figure of a king, butsomehow appealing in human terms because of his honest simplicity- Désirée, the beautiful actress, wise, lovely, beloved- Voltaire, hated by the King and idolized by the people, coming back to his forbidden Paris at the end of his days- Franklin's compatriots and associates-ministers, artists, and the fascinating women who made up their circle - the Archduke Joseph of Austria, stern elder brother to the pretty, frivolous Queen; and, - looming like a tower of rock over the petty intrigues ofothers, the powerful, simple man, more powerful certainly than simple, the grand old man, Benjamin Franklin

Book Description
Have you ever felt like your "I do" in marriage has turned into "I don’t anymore?" Have you ever felt that the man you thought was your soulmate has turned into more of a roommate? If so, then Lovestruck will help you see your marriage from a fresh perspective and reignite the passion that was there in the beginning. While the extent of the church’s message has traditionally been, "If you’re not married, don’t do it," and "If you are married, don’t talk about it, " it’s time to see what God has to say sexual intimacy. With the Song of Solomon as a backdrop, bestselling author Sharon Jaynes will take you on a daring journey to discover how to recognize outside factors that cause hurt feelings and create healthy boundaries that protect your relationship; overcome feelings of guilt about your level of desire for physical intimacy by understanding God’s original intent; recognize the warning signs of growing indifference by taking steps to make marriage a priority; regain the passion of the early years by remembering and returning to what brought you together in the first place; and recalibrate the direction your marriage is headed by starting with the end in mind. When we see God's design for spiritual and physical oneness, we'll have the foundation for a love that lasts a lifetime.

No Time Like the Future
Author: Michael J. Fox
Publisher: Flatiron Books
ISBN: 1250265622
Category : Biography & Autobiography
Languages : en
Pages : 256
Book Description
INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER A moving account of resilience, hope, fear and mortality, and how these things resonate in our lives, by actor and advocate Michael J. Fox. The entire world knows Michael J. Fox as Marty McFly, the teenage sidekick of Doc Brown in Back to the Future; as Alex P. Keaton in Family Ties; as Mike Flaherty in Spin City; and through numerous other movie roles and guest appearances on shows such as The Good Wife and Curb Your Enthusiasm. Diagnosed at age 29, Michael is equally engaged in Parkinson’s advocacy work, raising global awareness of the disease and helping find a cure through The Michael J. Fox Foundation for Parkinson’s Research, the world’s leading non-profit funder of PD science. His two previous bestselling memoirs, Lucky Man and Always Looking Up, dealt with how he came to terms with the illness, all the while exhibiting his iconic optimism. His new memoir reassesses this outlook, as events in the past decade presented additional challenges. In No Time Like the Future: An Optimist Considers Mortality, Michael shares personal stories and observations about illness and health, aging, the strength of family and friends, and how our perceptions about time affect the way we approach mortality. Thoughtful and moving, but with Fox’s trademark sense of humor, his book provides a vehicle for reflection about our lives, our loves, and our losses. Running through the narrative is the drama of the medical madness Fox recently experienced, that included his daily negotiations with the Parkinson’s disease he’s had since 1991, and a spinal cord issue that necessitated immediate surgery. His challenge to learn how to walk again, only to suffer a devastating fall, nearly caused him to ditch his trademark optimism and “get out of the lemonade business altogether.” Does he make it all of the way back? Read the book.
