Its ten inspiring short stories span the globe from the American Old West to South Asia on the shores of Calcutta with several stopovers in between.

Your heart will be warmed and filled with those who dared to dream again, those who have loved and lost and those who have learned to forgive themselves as well as others. Regardless of where an individual may have gotten off track in life, this author believes that he or she can get back on the path and live with purpose.

Book excerpt: Lord Hideyoshi, the regent of Japan at the time, took the first step toward the control of firearms. It was a very small step, and it was not taken simply to protect feudal lords from being shot at by peasants but to get all weapons out of the hands of civilians. He said nothing about arms control. Instead, he announced that he was going to build a statue of Buddha that would make all existing statues look like midgets. It would be so enormous (the figure was about twice the scale of the Statue of Liberty), that many tons of iron would be needed just for the braces and bolts. Still more was required to erect the accompanying temple, which was to cover a piece of ground something over an eighth of a mile square. All farmers, ji-samurai, and monks were invited to contribute their swords and guns to the cause. They were, in fact, required to. -- from publisher description.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It is worthless to offer your life as a ransomed sacrifice in the name of false love. False love nourishes us with the bread of sorrows. It is the spiritual sophisticated weaponry instituted within mankind for mass destruction by the devil. False love is nothing, but ‘the Gun under Roses.’ All the atrocities caused in the name of love are the attribute of false love. To be engaged in marriage, love and sex relationships with the Ego’s mindless tantamount to sitting on a timing bomb. Alike, any ideology by which initially, love is its manipulated language and eventually results in counter- productive and hatred is classified as ‘the Gun under Roses. This lovely book, ‘The Gun under Roses’ is of much significant to the human race. It highlights mankind, how to distinguish between the killer false love and the true love that nourishes us with the bread of life. Natural love creates no miseries. ‘We live, but once.’ Life is very precious. We are born free, but lack of awareness we sell our freedom to false love to be incarcerated. It is better to be awakened before making a life time commitment in marriage, love and sex relationships. If you want to live, learn how to live. To avoid atrocities caused in the name of love, and to inherit the ‘living Heaven’ bewitching marriage, love and sex relationships, learn how to love unconditionally. The power of love conquers all.

This book was released on 2016-03-31 with total page 805 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After the death of its founder in 1865, the Society of the Sacred Heart experienced exceptional recruitment and expansion, and departure from France of more than 2500 religious at the beginning of the century. Its story is that of the thousands of women who joined it to root their lives in its charism. In the forty countries where they have been sent, they have had to confront liberalism and anti-clericalism, revolution, the effects of Nazism and Marxism and world wars that destroyed their houses and scattered their members. After the Second Vatican Council, the elimination of cloister opened new fields of apostolic work to the Society. This book shows how the congregation developed amid internal crises, which did not differ from those in the Church and civil society, and how from these crises there emerged little by little a new way to be a Religious of the Sacred Heart.

Download or read book A Cultural History of Firearms in the Age of Empire written by Karen Jones and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-03-16 with total page 330 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Firearms have been studied by imperial historians mainly as means of human destruction and material production. Yet firearms have always been invested with a whole array of additional social and symbolical meanings. By placing these meanings at the centre of analysis, the essays presented in this volume extend the study of the gun beyond the confines of military history and the examination of its impact on specific colonial encounters. By bringing cultural perspectives to bear on this most pervasive of technological artefacts, the contributors explore the densely interwoven relationships between firearms and broad processes of social change. In so doing, they contribute to a fuller understanding of some of the most significant consequences of British and American imperial expansions. Not the least original feature of the book is its global frame of reference. Bringing together historians of different periods and regions, A Cultural History of Firearms in the Age of Empire overcomes traditional compartmentalisations of historical knowledge and encourages the drawing of novel and illuminating comparisons across time and space.

Book excerpt: ★ Publishers Weekly starred review Parkland. Las Vegas. Dallas. Orlando. San Bernardino. Paris. Charleston. Sutherland Springs. Newtown. These cities are now known for the people who were shot and killed in them. More Americans have died from guns in the US in the last fifty years than in all the wars in American history. With less than 5% of the world's population, the people of the US own nearly half the world's guns. America also has the most annual gun deaths--homicide, suicide, and accidental gun deaths--at 105 per day, or more than 38,000 per year. Some people say it's a heart problem. Others say it's a gun problem. The authors of Beating Guns believe it's both. This book is for people who believe the world doesn't have to be this way. Inspired by the prophetic image of beating swords into plows, Beating Guns provides a provocative look at gun violence in America and offers a clarion call to change our hearts regarding one of the most significant moral issues of our time. Bestselling author, speaker, and activist Shane Claiborne and Michael Martin show why Christians should be concerned about gun violence and how they can be part of the solution. The authors transcend stale rhetoric and old debates about gun control to offer a creative and productive response. Full-color images show how guns are being turned into tools and musical instruments across the nation. Charts, tables, and facts convey the mind-boggling realities of gun violence in America, but as the authors make clear, there is a story behind every statistic. Beating Guns allows victims and perpetrators of gun violence to tell their own compelling stories, offering hope for change and helping us reimagine the world as one that turns from death to life, where swords become plows and guns are turned into garden tools.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chrissie and Anthony Foster were like any other young family, raising their three daughters in suburban Melbourne with what they hoped were the right values. Chrissie could not have known that the stranger-danger she feared actually lurked in the presbytery attached to the girls' Catholic primary school. Father Kevin O'Donnell, a long-term paedophile, lived and worked there. Two of their young daughters became victims of O'Donnell. And once the truth was revealed, the Fosters began a battle to find out how this could have happened. The Church offered silence, lies, denials and threats. Meanwhile, their daughters tried to piece together their fractured lives. This is the chilling true story that made national and international headlines. Chrissie Foster's heartbreaking account of her family's suffering, and their determination to stand up for themselves against the might of the Catholic Church, is testament to the strength of a mother's love, and the resilience of the human spirit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: For generations eastern Nova Scotia was one of the most celebrated Roman Catholic constituencies in Canada. Occupying a corner of a small province in a politically marginalized region of the country, the Diocese of Antigonish nevertheless had tremendous influence over the development of Canadian Catholicism. It produced the first Roman Catholic prime minister of Canada, supplied the nation with clergy and women- religious, and organized one of North America’s most successful social movements. Disciples of Antigonish recounts the history of this unique multi-ethnic community as it shifted from the firm ultramontanism of the nineteenth century to a more socially conscious Catholicism after the First World War. Peter Ludlow chronicles the faithful as they built a strong Catholic sub-state, dealing with economic uncertainty, generational outmigration, and labour unrest. As the home of the Antigonish Movement – a network of adult study clubs, cooperatives, and credit unions – the diocese became famous throughout the Catholic world. The influence of “mighty big and strong Antigonish,” as one national figure described the community, reached its zenith in the 1950s. Disciples of Antigonish traces the monumental changes that occurred within the region and the wider church over nearly a century and demonstrates that the Catholic faith in Canada went well beyond Sunday Mass.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This story extends from the uniqueness of Black Chicago, Illinois, USA, in comparison to any other city in America. This prolific difference includes Black Chicago teenager's unique Gouster style of clothing announced by singer David Bowie during the 1960s. More especially, it includes the historical ability for Black teenager's exhibition in phenomenal organizational skills that included hundreds of thousands. Most importantly, this story describes the uniqueness of Chicago, Illinois, as the most segregated city in the United States. In 1885, a state law against discrimination in public places was initiated but was rarely enforced. While not yet confined to the city's nascent ghettos, Blacks generally found housing available only within emerging enclaves. Much of Martin Luther King Jr.'s integration efforts focused on the Deep South, but in 1966, King focused his energies on Chicago, known then as one of the most segregated cities in the country. This unique period of teenage Chicago history is generally unknown to the world and may become extinct in the upcoming years as its participants are now in their early seventies. Inspired by true events, this is where our story begins. In 1965, this story follows a fifteen-year-old Charles Powers, called CP, who aspired to become a Hollywood actor/singer. After the murder of his best friend by the huge Disciple street gang, CP was unexpectedly led into the hierarchy of a near three hundred-member street gang called the Satan Lovers. In 1969, this street organization joined the highly publicized Black P. Stone Nation in its war with the Disciple Nation. In 1970, at age twenty, CP became leader of the now nearly two-thousand-member Black P. Stone Nation faction. In 1964, as housing slowly opened for Black families moving westward, Disciple members and affiliates added themselves to the neighborhood of West Englewood. A small street gang known to law enforcement as the Satan Lovers established several years prior and other youth in the area experienced a takeover buildup by encroaching Disciple factions. Increasing Disciple harassment, threats, and shootings stimulated local teens to weaponize and join the Satan Lovers in a battle to maintain control of their area. Against this backdrop of Englewood, the White Flight occurred in 1964. There included a generational Italian Mafia connected teenage street gang, concerned with the approaching decimation of the Ashland Boulevard racial dividing line. They also experienced the merging of a forced maturity in all White and Black Englewood teens who are today in their seventies. Segregation and gang violence hovered over West Englewood. This was a perfect storm of racial tension and a highly outnumbered and surrounded Satan Lovers, which sidetracked teenage career goals and neighborhood peace. A must-read of every book club in the UK--What is the big attraction? Chi Town Gangster is most unique as its specifics experienced by those who lived the history are unavailable elsewhere and stem from true events uniquely attached to only one American city.
