Book excerpt: Walking Through Battles on the Bay tells the fascinating stories of several Vietnam vets and their families who retire in the Monterey Bay area. Set in 2002, America is still under stress from the 9/11 attacks. The vets include Craig, who settles down with his wife, Lisa. Kristy is their outspoken, determined daughter. Although she once had a strong faith, she lost it while in college. She couldn’t even pray for loved ones, including her severely ill mother, her father who ended up in jail, and her war correspondent boyfriend, Tim, who was captured by the Taliban. The vets take on causes including trying to protect an iconic cross that has stood on a hill in the San Francisco Bay area for years. Protesters started vandalizing it since it stands on public ground. Violent fights break out, leaving one of the vets seriously injured. Another plight they take on is trying to change “sanctuary city” laws, which few people knew about at that time. They jump into action when an innocent family is harmed during a home burglary. Other vets’ true stories tear at the heart as the families learn to adapt to civilian life. Who will find faith and love again?

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By 1942 the formidable Japanese military had conquered swathes of territory across south-east Asia and the Pacific Ocean. Despite its defeat at the Battle of Midway, Japan remained a potent enemy committed to the creation of a defensive arc to shield its captured possessions in the Pacific. The capture of Port Moresby would cement the southern border of this defensive arc and sever the vital lines of communication between Australia and the United States. It was the Japanese plan to seize Moresby that would set the course for the Battle of Milne Bay. Situated on the eastern tip of New Guinea, Milne Bay was a wretched hell-hole: swamp-riddled, a haven for malaria and cursed with torrential rain. It was here that General Douglas MacArthur ordered the secret construction of an Allied base with airfields to protect the maritime approach to Port Moresby. But the Japanese soon discovered the base at Milne Bay and despatched a task force to destroy its garrison and occupy the base. All that stood between the Japanese and their prize was a brigade of regular Australian soldiers untrained in tropical warfare and a brigade of Australian militia with no combat experience whatsoever. While the Kokoda campaign is etched in public memory, its sister battle at Milne Bay has long been neglected. However the bitter fighting over this isolated harbour played an equally important role in protecting Port Moresby and made a valuable contribution to shifting Allied fortunes in the Pacific War.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Britannia's Palette looks at the lives of British artists who witnessed the naval war against the French Republic and Empire between 1793 and 1815. This band of brothers, through their artistic and entrepreneurial efforts, established the images of the war at sea that were central to the understanding their contemporaries had of events - images that endure to this day. In this unprecedented book, Nicholas Tracy reveals the importance of the self-employed artist to the study of a nation at war. He includes lively accounts of serving officers, retired sailors, and academy-trained artists who, often under the threat of debtor's prison, struggled to balance the standards of art with the public desire for heroic, reassuring images. Containing over eighty illustrations, Britannia's Palette explores a varied and exciting collection of paintings that reveal the poignancy of the human experience of war.

Book excerpt: Survive; that is the sole mission of the USC’s last colony fleet. Ensure that the remnants of humanity and its Vaxian allies can rebuild and live. While they still dream of peace hidden away from their Demzerai executioners. Forced to land upon the alien world of Tallagen, Colonization Fleet Epsilon has forged a new home over the last 175 cycles. Everyday citizens huddled behind the safety of the cities’ barriers and holographic skies overhead, gladly embracing the illusion of utopia. However, peace is merely a word mentioned in the halls of the senate, while outside the barriers death and the constant threat of war are as sure as the sun rises. But now whispers of deception have begun to unfold. Greed, desperation, and the lust for power threaten to consume not only the colonies but Tallagen itself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Pākehā Settlements in a Māori World offers a vivid account of early European experience in these islands, through material evidence offered by the archaeological record. As European exploration in the 1770s gave way to sealing, whaling and timber-felling, Pākehā visitors first became sojourners in small, remote camps, then settlers scattered around the coast. Over time, mission stations were established, alongside farms, businesses and industries, and eventually towns and government centres. Through these decades a small but growing Pākehā population lived within and alongside a Māori world, often interacting closely. This phase drew to a close in the 1850s, as the numbers of Pākehā began to exceed the Māori population, and the wars of the 1860s brought brutal transformation to the emerging society and its economy. Archaeologist Ian Smith tells the story of adaptation, change and continuity as two vastly different cultures learned to inhabit the same country. From the scant physical signs of first contact to the wealth of detail about daily life in established settlements, archaeological evidence amplifies the historical narrative. Glimpses of a world in the midst of turbulent change abound in this richly illustrated book. As the visual narrative makes clear, archaeology brings history into the present, making the past visible in the landscape around us and enabling an understanding of complex histories in the places we inhabit.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "A beautifully engaging fantasy teeming with dragons, fae, magic, and the importance of family and friendship. A joy to read from beginning to end!" -Julie Boglisch, author of the Elifer Chronicles, the Requiem of Stones series Jemma Avalon is the daughter of a gentle part elf-fae mother and a father with fiery dragon blood, an unusual combination even in the magical world. Ten years after her mother's sudden death, Jemma is working at a major museum in DC, where magic is all but outlawed. Her father wants her to assimilate and live without magic, but Jemma is determined to fully embrace her heritage. She longs to return to Everland Bay, the enchanting world where her Grandmother Annalyn lives, and find a way to join the renowned magical research institute there, like the women in her family before her. An ordinary day at the museum takes an extraordinary turn, rocketing Jemma to an Everland Bay Institute under violent siege, where dark-arts mages threaten everything important to her. She and her companions work feverishly to overturn their foes, knowing that it may already be too late.
