This story is about the resilience of the human spirit, following three generations of activist families and the author as child and adult in the context of radical change movements of the twentieth century. The constant chant from the authors mother, When all the children in the world are happy, only then do you have a right to be, was character defining, as were her many traumatic experiences growing up during the McCarthy era witch hunts of the 1940s and 1950s. History of her grandparents participation in an educational commune, alternative living styles, and researched labor union history provides an exciting backdrop.

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • The incredible true story of survival and salvation that is the basis for two major motion pictures: 2014’s Unbroken and the upcoming Unbroken: Path to Redemption. On a May afternoon in 1943, an Army Air Forces bomber crashed into the Pacific Ocean and disappeared, leaving only a spray of debris and a slick of oil, gasoline, and blood. Then, on the ocean surface, a face appeared. It was that of a young lieutenant, the plane’s bombardier, who was struggling to a life raft and pulling himself aboard. So began one of the most extraordinary odysseys of the Second World War. The lieutenant’s name was Louis Zamperini. In boyhood, he’d been a cunning and incorrigible delinquent, breaking into houses, brawling, and fleeing his home to ride the rails. As a teenager, he had channeled his defiance into running, discovering a prodigious talent that had carried him to the Berlin Olympics and within sight of the four-minute mile. But when war had come, the athlete had become an airman, embarking on a journey that led to his doomed flight, a tiny raft, and a drift into the unknown. Ahead of Zamperini lay thousands of miles of open ocean, leaping sharks, a foundering raft, thirst and starvation, enemy aircraft, and, beyond, a trial even greater. Driven to the limits of endurance, Zamperini would answer desperation with ingenuity; suffering with hope, resolve, and humor; brutality with rebellion. His fate, whether triumph or tragedy, would be suspended on the fraying wire of his will. In her long-awaited new book, Laura Hillenbrand writes with the same rich and vivid narrative voice she displayed in Seabiscuit. Telling an unforgettable story of a man’s journey into extremity, Unbroken is a testament to the resilience of the human mind, body, and spirit. Praise for Unbroken “Extraordinarily moving . . . a powerfully drawn survival epic.”—The Wall Street Journal “[A] one-in-a-billion story . . . designed to wrench from self-respecting critics all the blurby adjectives we normally try to avoid: It is amazing, unforgettable, gripping, harrowing, chilling, and inspiring.”—New York “Staggering . . . mesmerizing . . . Hillenbrand’s writing is so ferociously cinematic, the events she describes so incredible, you don’t dare take your eyes off the page.”—People “A meticulous, soaring and beautifully written account of an extraordinary life.”—The Washington Post “Ambitious and powerful . . . a startling narrative and an inspirational book.”—The New York Times Book Review “Marvelous . . . Unbroken is wonderful twice over, for the tale it tells and for the way it’s told. . . . It manages maximum velocity with no loss of subtlety.”—Newsweek “Moving and, yes, inspirational . . . [Laura] Hillenbrand’s unforgettable book . . . deserve[s] pride of place alongside the best works of literature that chart the complications and the hard-won triumphs of so-called ordinary Americans and their extraordinary time.”—Maureen Corrigan, Fresh Air “Hillenbrand . . . tells [this] story with cool elegance but at a thrilling sprinter’s pace.”—Time “Unbroken is too much book to hope for: a hellride of a story in the grip of the one writer who can handle it.”—Christopher McDougall, author of Born to Run

Marley meets...Cujo?A dog down the block is being forced to live outside, at the mercy of abusers, wild animals and brutal weather. The author does nothing-at first. Then, an accidental meeting with Lance, a Border Collie, sets the wheels in motion for a life-saving rescue and a disappointing discovery: Lance turns out to be a semi-feral dog. During the first twenty-four hours of his liberation, he attacks both the author and his wife, and soon proves to be a threat to anyone he can get his teeth on. His rescuers ask themselves: Do we euthanize the dog we rescued? Making their soul-searching even more difficult is Lance's alter ego; when not threatening, he's getting into all kinds of highly entertaining mischief. Among the many "victims" of his hilarious quirkiness are a State Trooper, the local school bus driver, and a neighborhood drug dealer. This rollicking and-at times-heart-wrenching, true-life account of the unorthodox rescue of an unorthodox dog has been called "riveting," "spellbinding," and "jaw-dropping." Lance's compelling story reveals as much about the rescuers as it does the rescued. Lance: A Spirit Unbroken is a book for any reader looking to have her or his faith in the human race restored.

The woman in Revelation 12 is somewhat of a mystery because the Holy Bible only gives a snippet about the woman, and a lot of folks have their own interpretation, but I have a theory too. I myself never gave the woman too much thought until 2012 because the Book of Revelation is hard to understand. However, God provided me with the tools, clues, and signs that I needed to help me understand the woman and her struggles. I also believe when folks think about people of the Bible, they donaEUR(tm)t think about someone in the here and now, only in the past. I too had that same mind frame until God allowed Jesus Christ to open my heart and show me the signs that opened my mind. Here are a few things that were placed in my hands to help me understand. These books called Warning! Revelation Is About To Be Revealed, Understanding the End of Times, and Revelation Explained at Last! I happen to believe that weaEUR(tm)re living in the times of the Book of Revelation because I just feel it in my spirit; and the way we treat each other, itaEUR(tm)s very unsettling. I see our world is becoming like a volcano thataEUR(tm)s getting ready to erupt. I feel that way because I see the lack of kindness, compassion, and empathy that we humans have for one another, and itaEUR(tm)s getting worse every day. In Matthew 24:15, it talks about aEURoeThe Great Tribulation.aEUR It states, aEURoeTherefore when you see the aEUR~abomination of desolation,aEUR(tm)aEUR which means emptiness. ThataEUR(tm)s because our world is dying and itaEUR(tm)s coming to a close because humanity is dying, and without humanity, thereaEUR(tm)s no life or world. Also, in Revelation 12, it spoke about the woman being persecuted, and it has helped me to understand some strange and hurtful things. That has happened to me by my family and others in my life, so I do believe IaEUR(tm)m the woman in Revelation 12. You can believe it or not.
