    The Hood Battalion saw some of the fiercest fighting of the First World war particularly at Antwerp, in the Gallipoli Campaign and then again on the West Front at the Ancre, Gavrelle and Passchendaele. The author lets the participants tell their own story, having expended prodigious labour in unearthing the many first-hand accounts of the Hood's exploits. It is indeed a tale told by heroes.

    Missy's Guide - How to transform...

    Weikel inspires readers to dance for the Lord in this debut Christian work.For a time when she was younger, Weikel turned to stripping to support herself and her daughter. The shame she felt—rooted in sexual abuse she suffered as a child—was so great, she needed to numb the pain with drinking and drugs. It could have been enough to keep Weikel from ever dancing again, but she found ways to overcome her fears and dance like no one was watching—well, except for one being. “There is nothing more powerful than dancing with our heavenly father,” writes Weikel in her introduction. “Feeling his presence and love as I move across the floor is the ultimate high. I finally shed the care about what others think and know how much God loves me.” With this book, Weikel hopes to help others who feel trepidation about dancing find their inner Ginger Rogers. Dance, according to the author, is a form of worship—one that doubles as a source of healing for the dancer. Through personal anecdotes, explorations of Scripture, and dance exercises, Weikel encourages her readers to leave it all on the dance floor at the next wedding they attend or even to enjoy a solo dance party in the mirror. Weikel’s prose is enthusiastic and mystical, full of accounts of personal rituals and attestations about hearing God: “Today as I lit the final fire of the year and began to think about how the seasons change, I was overwhelmed by what the Holy Spirit downloaded as I was sweeping up the mess that the wood and paper make. God said, ‘You are approaching a new season, and I know you have felt all over the place like all this dust and dirt you are sweeping.’ ” It’s a short book at only 50 pages (including several full-page black-and-white photos). While probably not for everyone, Weikel’s open-hearted, judgment-free approach will undoubtedly speak to certain Christian readers who want a bit more dancing in their lives.A slim, inspiring work rooted in the author’s practice of dance-as-worship.

    “The finest account I’ve read on the Selous Scouts . . . Andy Balaam tells it like it was—the fear, the terror, the adrenaline highs of combat in the bush.” —Chris Cocks, bestselling author of Fireforce 
     
    From the searing heat of the Zambezi Valley to the freezing cold of the Chimanimani Mountains in Rhodesia, from the bars in Port St Johns in the Transkei to the Drakensberg Mountains in South Africa, this is the story of one man’s fight against terror, and his conscience. 
     
    Anyone living in Rhodesia during the 1960s and 1970s would have had a father, husband, brother or son called up in the defense of the war-torn, landlocked little country. A few of these brave men would have been members of the elite and secretive unit that struck terror into the hearts of the ZANLA and ZIPRA guerrillas infiltrating the country at that time—the Selous Scouts. These men were highly trained and disciplined, with skills to rival the SAS, Navy Seals and the US Marines, although their dress and appearance were wildly unconventional: civilian clothing with blackened, hairy faces to resemble the very people they were fighting against. 
     
    Twice decorated—with the Member of the Legion of Merit (MLM) and the Military Forces’ Commendation (MFC)—Andrew Balaam was a member of the Rhodesian Light Infantry and later the Selous Scouts, for a period spanning twelve years. This is his honest and insightful account of his time as a pseudo operator. His story is brutally truthful, frightening, sometimes humorous and often sad.

    It's become an article of faith that American entrepreneurship is in trouble. The problems are many: lack of capital, too few entrepreneurial immigrants, excessive regulation, an aging population, slowing population growth, and rising student debt. But while experts across the country debate the causes and propose solutions, Scott Shane explains that the data just do not fit. Dismantling each of the most widely accepted theories in turn, he persuasively demonstrates that—while an evolving market is changing the nature of most startups—entrepreneurship is actually alive and well. Shane reveals how the number of incorporated startups is rising, fewer startups are failing, and the number of businesses backed by investors is increasing. The overall picture is positive. Exhaustively researched and compellingly told, this book will be discussed for years to come.
