Secondly, the gravely ill man is the one Grayson coveted from afar many years ago in Charleston. Grayson devises a scheme to escape with Marx, but their problems have just begun. The villainous warden considers Marx Wellbourne his prize prisoner and will do anything to bring him back. Pursued by the warden's posse, violence, passion and lust overtake Gray and Marx. The ride back to Richmond is long and hard. Will they make it there alive?

Cash Walker always leaves a lady’s bed before morning—after all, he has a day full of chores waiting on his ranch. So when he wakes up one morning to his latest catch creeping out of the room, he figures he had it coming. Until later the same day, when she shows up in his barn. Turns out, she’s come to town to talk about the one subject Cash refuses to discuss with anyone. Abbi Daniels is tired of being the responsible woman her parents expect her to be, but even she can admit that jumping into bed with the last guy to see her brother alive wasn’t her smartest move. Cash won’t talk about the day her brother was killed, but she refuses to leave town without answers. Only the more she’s around Cash, the less she wants to return home and the more she feels like her old self again. With Abbi around, Cash’s no-commitment resolve breaks down. Around Cash, Abbi finds the freedom she’s craved for so long. But how will their fragile connection survive when all the things left unsaid between them come to light?

After Father left to catch the last train, I stood there looking in the direction of the train station until it was too dark to see anything. Afterwards, I went to my bed, lay down, and covered my face so my roommates could not see me cry. I was seventeen years old, almost a man, and a grown man didn't cry even if he felt so terribly alone. Growing up in Poland at the start of World War II, Bogdan Tukiendorf lived through the clash of German, Russian, and Polish armies, the German occupation, the separation of his family, and a difficult immigration to the U.S. "The Long, Hard Road" details his journey from a farm in Poland to inner-city Chicago. Saddled with a knee injury from an early age, Bogdan limped through childhood and visited makeshift wartime hospitals as his knee worsened. His health prevented him from migrating to the U.S. with his family, so at seventeen he was left alone in a strange German city. "The Long, Hard Road" shares Bogdan's experiences from the war, such as his family's cooperation with the Polish freedom fighters, tenuous friendship with the occupying German commander, the fear of neighbors betraying them, his life in the netherworld while waiting to immigrate, his voyage to a free land, and his struggle to succeed in a new country. This engrossing autobiography will capture your attention as you read firsthand the story of one who survived World War II.

Long Hard Journey begins in ancient Greece where science originated 2000 years ago. From the advances made in physics since the days of philosopher/scientists like Pythagoras and Aristotle, key breakthroughs are laid out—these shed a very bright light on the postulates and laws of Einstein”s theory of relativity. The scientific psyche is on display too, with the reader seeing the biting vindictiveness of a Sir Isaac Newton, the despair of the “reluctant revolutionary” Max Planck, and the utter astonishment of men like James Clerk Maxwell and Ernest Rutherford. Physics is thus shown to be high drama instead of the tedious march toward the truth that it is oft perceived to be. Grab this delightful little primer if you’ve never quite gotten the gist of relativity before. Take it home and partake of the drama.

Upon its release in 1960, Alfred Hitchcock's Psycho divided critical opinion, with several leading film critics condemning Hitchcock's apparent encouragement of the audience's identification with the gruesome murder that lies at the heart of the film. Such antipathy did little to harm Psycho's box-office returns, and it would go on to be acknowledged as one of the greatest film thrillers, with scenes and characters that are among the most iconic in all cinema. In his illuminating study of Psycho, Raymond Durgnat provides a minute analysis of its unfolding narrative, enabling us to consider what happens to the viewer as he or she watches the film, and to think afresh about questions of spectatorship, Hollywood narrative codes, psycho-analysis, editing and shot composition. In his introduction to the new edition, Henry K. Miller presents A Long Hard Look at 'Psycho' as the culmination of Durgnat's decades-long campaign to correct what he called film studies' 'Grand Error'. In the course of expounding Durgnat's root-and-branch challenge to our inherited shibboleths about Hollywood cinema in general and Hitchcock in particular, Miller also describes the eclectic intellectual tradition to which Durgnat claimed allegiance. This band of amis inconnus, among them William Empson, Edgar Morin and Manny Farber, had at its head Durgnat's mentor Thorold Dickinson. The book's story begins in the early 1960s, when Dickinson made the long hard look the basis of his pioneering film course at the Slade School of Fine Art, and Psycho became one of its first objects.

This book is about the journey of a man--from meager beginnings, being abused and misunderstood by schoolmates and cousins, starting an adventure with very little, surviving on the kindness of others, and refusing to accept something without paying for it in some way. They expected a long-haired bearded boy in an army jacket to be a bum, but he would be a surprise to them by his work ethic. Knowing very little about horses or the mountains, he purchased a horse, which began a journey through desolate lands, such as hot deserts and cold, freezing mountains. He knew little about mountain horse packing. Many close calls on his journey transformed this inexperienced boy into a man. Mentored by many people along his journey, he discovered that being a man isn't all about being tough, braving the unknown, crossing rivers, and climbing rugged mountains. He discovered it was about gentleness, kindness, and understanding--most of all, faith and love. The combination of all the mentoring would help him become successful in completing his journey to find himself and faith.

"The call to war is often met by young soldiers who lack an understanding of what they are about to encounter. These young soldiers must be trained, prepared, and then led in battle by those with experience and understanding--the Noncommissioned Officer Corps. In an effort to preserve the history of the US Army Noncommissioned Officer and to provide future noncommissioned officers with an understanding of the actions necessary to prepare soldiers and to lead them in war, the US Army Sergeants Major Academy undertook a program to gather and publish the stories of NCOs who had served in both Afghanistan and Iraq. Most of the papers received were from students of the US Army Sergeants Major Course who had already deployed to either Operation Enduring Freedom or Operation Iraqi Freedom. This work highlights a few of those stories. A wide range of topics have been chosen to allow the reader to understand the preparations, training, and actions needed for NCOs to accomplish their missions ... Many of the selected stories were shortened and edited for clarity; however, every attempt was made to remain true to the author's original intent"--Forward.

A practical guide to how we can positively adapt to a changing world, from the internationally bestselling authors of The 100-Year Life. "Wonderful . . . This thought-provoking book is a must-read." Daron Acemoglu, New York Times bestselling co-author of Why Nations Fail Smart new technologies. Longer, healthier lives. Human progress has risen to great heights, but at the same time it has prompted anxiety about where we're heading. Are our jobs under threat? If we live to 100, will we ever really stop working? And how will this change the way we love, manage and learn from others? One thing is clear: advances in technology have not been matched by the necessary innovation to our social structures. In our era of unprecedented change, we haven't yet discovered new ways of living. Drawing from the fields of economics and psychology, Andrew J. Scott and Lynda Gratton offer a simple framework based on three fundamental principles (Narrate, Explore and Relate) to give you the tools to navigate the challenges ahead. Both a personal road-map and a primer for governments, corporations and colleges, The New Long Life is the essential guide to a longer, smarter, happier life. "This thoughtful book explores how we can reimagine our days and our societies to make our lives better – not just longer." Adam Grant, New York Times bestselling author of Originals and Give and Take "Stimulating, insightful and inspirational."' Linda Yueh, author of The Great Economists
