https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13418097-elye-of-saint-gilles | 13418097-elye-of-saint-gilles | Elye of Saint-Gilles: A Chanson de Geste | ["Anonymous"] | 4 | 1 | 1 | "Elye of Saint-Gilles" tells the story of Elye — the son of Count Julien of Saint-Gilles, a vassal of William of Orange — and of his exploits during his youth and early knighthood. It is part of the William of Orange cycle, whose historical kernel is linked to events of the First and Fourth Crusades and the Reconquest of Spain. As Elye is dubbed a knight, he endures an insult from his father, so he undertakes a self-imposed exile from the court. It is not long, however, before he encounters and battles Saracens. Despite his prowess, they capture and transport him across the sea and attempt to convert him to Islam. After escaping and killing many more Saracens, he himself is mortally wounded but rescued by his own vassal Galopin — the famous character who was the prototype of Shakespeare’s Oberon and who makes his literary debut in this work. Galopin delivers Elye to the healing hands of an emir’s daughter, Rosamonde, who saves his life. In return, he saves her from an unsuitable marriage with a Saracen elder. For this Elye is again attacked by Saracens, but he is finally rescued by his father Julien, William of Orange, and King Louis. In the end the Saracen lands are converted, Rosamonde and Galopin are married, all make a pilgrimage to Jerusalem, and Elye is married at Paris to Avisse, the sister of King Louis, and he becomes the king’s seneschal. Elye of Saint-Gilles is the first English translation of the Old French chanson de geste and includes a new critical edition, facing the English text. This work encapsulates many of the standard elements of the French chanson de geste and provides an excellent example of the virtues of this literary form for entertainment and instruction. The sole manuscript containing "Elye," and its companion piece "Aiol," is found in the 1405 inventory of the library of Margaret of Flanders, duchess of Valois, whose family had been key figures in the First and Fourth Crusades and the Reconquest of Spain. In the late twelfth and thirteenth centuries, the court of Flanders was also a dynamic center of literary activity unrivaled in production by either Champagne or Paris. Dual-language edition. First English translation. Introduction, bibliography, notes, index. | null | 12/16/2010 | {"name":"Anonymous","num_books":791444,"num_followers":"3188"} | {"1_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"2_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"3_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"4_stars":{"reviews_num":1,"reviews_percentage":100},"5_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0}} | "$18.25" |

Darkness may have fallen over the world, but I won’t let it claim me. I’ll do anything I have to get back to Michigan. Yet nothing could prepare me for what we find on our trek north from Tallahassee. There’s hardly anything the aliens haven’t bombed. Survival, at any cost, is the name of the game for the few people who haven’t been killed or captured. As if trying to stay free and alive isn’t enough, I think I just met the love of my life.

Vecchione grappled with organized crime and dirty politicians, during which he supervised, investigated, and prosecuted major felony cases. Crooked Brooklyn is a gritty story of corruption, greed, and law enforcement. Vecchione navigated a political minefield and expertly rose to the judicial challenges of directing investigations into a wide variety of crimes, from bribe-taking judges to cold-blooded killers. He was responsible for taking down three state Supreme Court judges, one of the most powerful political bosses in the country, two cops who worked as assassins for the Mafia, and a corrupt oral surgeon who was secretly selling bones from the recently deceased to medical supply companies.Unbelievable and unforgettable, Crooked Brooklyn is a story that will appeal to fans of Law & Order, readers of true crime, and those hungry for details about the system that keeps us safe. | null | 11/17/2015 | {"name":"Jerry Schmetterer","num_books":11,"num_followers":"2"} | {"1_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"2_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"3_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"4_stars":{"reviews_num":1,"reviews_percentage":33},"5_stars":{"reviews_num":2,"reviews_percentage":66}} | "$11.99" |

https://www.goodreads.com/book/show/13573517-the-boy-kings | 13573517-the-boy-kings | The Boy Kings: A Journey into the Heart of the Social Network | ["Katherine Losse"] | 3.3 | 707 | 135 | Kate Losse was a grad school refugee when she joined Facebook as employee #51 in 2005. Hired to answer user questions such as “What is a poke?” and “Why can’t I access my ex-girlfriend’s profile?” her early days at the company were characterized by a sense of camaraderie, promise, and ambition: Here was a group of scrappy young upstarts on a mission to rock Silicon Valley and change the world.
Over time, this sense of mission became so intense that working for Facebook felt like more than just a job; it implied a wholehearted dedication to “the cause.” Employees were incentivized to live within one mile of the office, summers were spent carousing at the company pool house, and female employees were told to wear T-shirts with founder Mark Zuckerberg’s profile picture on his birthday. Losse started to wonder what this new medium meant for real-life relationships: Would Facebook improve our social interactions? Or would we all just adapt our behavior to the habits and rules of these brilliant but socially awkward Internet savants who have become today’s youngest power players? Increasingly skeptical, Losse graduated from customer service to the internationalization team—tasked with rolling out Facebook to the rest of the world— finally landing a seat right outside Zuckerberg’s office as his personal ghostwriter, the voice of the boy king.
This book takes us for the first time into the heart of this fast-growing information empire, inviting us to high-level meetings with Zuckerberg; lifting the veil on long nights of relentless hacking and trolling; taking us behind the scenes of raucous company parties; and introducing us to the personalities, values, and secret ambitions of the floppy-haired boy wonders who are redefining the way we live, love, and work.

As the waters rise, as savage wars are fought over the remaining high ground, the work goes on. Those who will live, of the billions who will die, are chosen. Families are torn apart and the resources of our drowning world are marshalled for one last gamble.
Ark is the story of three women, Grace, Venus and Holle, and their part in humanity's struggle to reach a new home.

His introductory chapters offer tips for successful growth, garden design, plant selection, and "creating" new irises. A Guide to Bearded Irises also provides portraits of the most outstanding plants in each of the six recognized categories, from the dainty miniature dwarf bearded irises to the stately tall bearded irises.

The objective is to develop heuristics for these supply chain problems in order to offer practical solutions to improve operational efficiency. These heuristics are evaluated using benchmark and derived data-sets. Case studies pertaining to logistics in different industries including textile machinery manufacturing and banking are also included to demonstrate the created heuristics. High competition in today’s global market has forced the organizations to invest in and focus on their logistics system. The critical function of logistics is the transportation within and across various supply chain entities. Both supply and distribution procedure require effective transportation management. A small improvement in routing problems can lead to huge logistics savings in absolute terms.

“There would be no happy ending for us. He was too damaged. I was too broken.”
Two years ago, Lorrie’s mother was murdered. But that wasn’t the end of it. Reeling from the tragedy, Lorrie’s father spiraled into alcohol, depression, and finally suicide.
The two most important people in Lorrie’s life are both gone but she’s still alive.
Trying to recover from the tragedy, Lorrie returns to campus, ready to pick up the pieces of her life. All Lorrie wants is to get back to “normal.”
Then she meets Hunter. The man, the legend, “The Hammer.”
Hunter is a cage fighter who takes on every fight like he’s got nothing to lose. His life is a tangled mess of girls, booze, and fist fights. And while it may seem like he’s got a devil-may-care attitude, he’s fighting a private cage-match with a monster he can’t defeat.
Lorrie knows that Hunter is exactly the type of guy she should stay away from, especially in her fragile state, but Hunter has other ideas.
As Hunter and Lorrie grow closer together, will they be able to overcome their pain and heal each other? Or will they both end up wrecked?

Thomas"] | 4.5 | 4 | 3 | Do you dream of landing a traditional publishing contract or watching your self-published book shoot towards the top of Amazon? Whether you have your sights set on a large advance from a publishing house or simply long to see an increase in royalties from your Kindle sales, you won’t achieve either without the development of a solid author platform.
The days when traditional publishers handled 100% of the book marketing and sales for their authors has long gone. Today, the majority of publishers expect their authors to play a significant role in marketing their own books. In fact most publishers will not take on an author who does not already have an established author platform.
When it comes to self-publishing, building your platform is imperative to the success of your book. Without a built-in platform at the time you launch a new book, the prospect of your book finding its way towards the top of an already crowded marketplace is very slim.
What if you had the tools available to build a loyal following of people who would buy your next book the moment it was released? What if those same people decided to broadcast the link to your book sales page to all their connections without pause?
This book will help you reach beyond your current fold of family, friends, and devoted followers, and provide you with the action steps and tips you need to find more targeted and loyal connections by way of social media marketing tailored for authors. | null | 4/26/2016 | {"name":"Tracy J.

Doing business across borders is very different from doing business across town–subtle and not-so-subtle differences in attitudes and etiquette play a big role.
Did you know?
• Bowing in Japan isn’t just bending at the waist; where you put your hands and how deep you bow makes a big difference!
• Don’t give gifts in groups of four or nine. “Four” and “nine” are unlucky because the words sound like “death” and “hardship” in Japanese.
• Don’t expect Japanese colleagues to come out and say “no.” They will usually say “maybe.”
In the Know in Japan helps
• Fit right in by understanding local manners, etiquette, and behaviors
• Navigate through everyday life with tips for the whole family
• Get an insider’s perspective on the social and business environment

Das Buch ist 1961 in den USA herausgekommen und wurde erst 1982 in deutscher Sprache vorgelegt - von einem kleinen Berliner Verlag. Erneut auf den aktuellen Stand gebracht und wiederum erweitert, liegt es nun in dieser Taschenbuchausgabe vor. Damit wurde einem vielfach vorgetragene Wunsch entsprochen, Hilbergs "bedeutendes Buch" (FAZ) einem breiten Publikum zugänglich zu machen.
Das Thema dieses Werkes sind die Täter, der Plan, das Tatschema, die Tat selbst, ihre Vorbereitung und Durchführung. Mit "Kühle und Präzision, die den großen Chronisten auszeichnen" (SZ), weist Hilberg die Verwicklung und Beteiligung der Führungseliten in Staatsverwaltung, Industrie und Wehrmacht bei der Judenvernichtung nach. Nachgewiesen wird auch die funktionale Hingabe des durchschnittlichen Bürokraten, Reichsbahners, Polizisten und Soldaten an das Ausrottungswerk. Und es kommt ein Tätertypus zum Vorschein (der auch namentlich genannt wird), der nach 1945 nie einem Richter begegnet ist: der preußische General, der national-konservative Ministerialbeamte, der Diplomat, Jurist, Industrielle, Chemiker und Arzt.
Hilberg hat das Material für sein Buch sein Leben lang gesammelt und ergänzt. Er gilt als der wohl beste Kenner der Quellen, die zum größten Teil von den Tätern stammen. Sie haben - gründlich, wie sie waren - die Beweise ihres Mordhandwerks hunderttausendfach abgeheftet - mit Briefkopf und Dienstsiegel. | null | 1/1/1961 | {"name":"Raul Hilberg","num_books":25,"num_followers":"45"} | {"1_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"2_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"3_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"4_stars":{"reviews_num":2,"reviews_percentage":11},"5_stars":{"reviews_num":15,"reviews_percentage":88}} | null |

Each story places us inside the desperate world of a child trying to make sense of abuse, and what it is doing to her, or at least to the part of her able to speak. In contrast, each essay places us inside the world of a knowledgeable adult busy placing her abuse, and the abuse of others, inside a broader cultural context, while still fighting for the integrity of her emotions and of her self. It is this commitment to the witnessing of each voice and the careful reflection on its meaning through use of the techniques of both fiction and memoir that makes this book unique. | null | 10/1/2003 | {"name":"Sarah Murphy","num_books":40} | {"1_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"2_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"3_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"4_stars":{"reviews_num":1,"reviews_percentage":50},"5_stars":{"reviews_num":1,"reviews_percentage":50}} | null |

With A Recall to Dante, Alice Curtayne illustrates the pressing need to recall Dante from his “exile of disregard.” Crucial to this work is the recognition that Dante wrote, not for scholars or other poets, but for the ordinary men and women of his homeland. As a result, his poetry is accessible and enjoyable for popular audiences. The humble mission of the book sacrifices exhaustive literary analysis, yet Curtayne’s pithy illustrative interpretations of the Comedy still offer much food for thought, as do her reflections on Dante’s invocations of the Holy Name, the Blessed Virgin Mary, and the act of prayer. Its relative brevity notwithstanding, A Recall to Dante accomplishes a hugely ambitious to restore to a civilization one of its most valuable memories. | null | 1/1/1969 | {"name":"Alice Curtayne","num_books":37,"num_followers":"11"} | {"1_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"2_stars":{"reviews_num":1,"reviews_percentage":33},"3_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"4_stars":{"reviews_num":1,"reviews_percentage":33},"5_stars":{"reviews_num":1,"reviews_percentage":33}} | null |

In reconstructing their own passage into adulthood, the writers inevitably tell the story of their country's turbulent journey from colonial subjugation through revolution to independence.

The fact that some of these stories verge on the supernatural, others on factual reporting, and others on the fine line between humor and morbidity in no way detracts from their resonance to both the history of the war between the states and the imaginative historical literature of America begun by Washington Irving.
Shadows of Blue & Gray collects all of Bierce's Civil War stories and also includes six excerpts from his memoirs recalling his experiences on the front lines.

Contentious forms of collective actions are now ever more present in various forms at the local, the national and the global levels.
Sport and Social From the Local to the Global is the first book-length treatment of the way social movements have intersected and continue to intersect with sport. It traces the history of various social movements associated with labour, women, peace, the environment and rights (civil, racial, disability and sexual), and their relationship to sport and sports mega-events such as the Olympic Games.
Based on research conducted by a multinational team of authors that draws on theories of social movements and new social movements, the book includes a valuable chronology of social movements, illustrations of key episodes in the development of the relationships between sport and different social movements and an agenda for future research and scholarship.
Written in a clear and comprehensive style it is suitable for all levels of higher education, researchers and the general reader who want to know more about the role that sport has played in the development of social movements and campaigns for social justice. | ["Sociology"] | 1/1/2013 | {"name":"Jean Harvey","num_books":42} | {"1_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"2_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0},"3_stars":{"reviews_num":2,"reviews_percentage":40},"4_stars":{"reviews_num":3,"reviews_percentage":60},"5_stars":{"reviews_num":0,"reviews_percentage":0}} | "$31.26" |

Oden"] | 3.9 | 40 | 12 | We often regard the author of the Gospel of Mark as an obscure figure about whom we know little. Many would be surprised to learn how much fuller a picture of Mark exists within widespread African tradition, tradition that holds that Mark himself was from North Africa, that he founded the church in Alexandria, that he was an eyewitness to the Last Supper and Pentecost, that he was related not only to Barnabas but to Peter as well and accompanied him on many of his travels. In this provocative reassessment of early church tradition, Thomas C. Oden begins with the palette of New Testament evidence and adds to it the range of colors from traditional African sources, including synaxaries (compilations of short biographies of saints to be read on feast days), archaeological sites, non-Western historical documents and ancient churches. The result is a fresh and illuminating portrait of Mark, one that is deeply rooted in African memory and seldom viewed appreciatively in the West. | ["Church History","Africa"] | 7/11/2011 | {"name":"Thomas C.

My ability to get through it all has been simple, love is the answer to every question. At a tender age. I became aware of the healing power of words. Penning a poem for my Aunt who suffered from depression. I wrote a poem about nature and all its simplistic glory. When I gave it to my Aunt she beamed in joy and encouraged me to write more. That simple poem hung on her refrigerator and it remained there until her homecoming.
I have reverence for all of God's creation; human, animal, nature, and the elements. I attempt to breathe life into them through my poetry. Surmounting obstacles, building bridges and the promise of possibilities are throughout my poetry. My poems speak of life's tribulations and blessings and how I embrace them, one in the same. Balance and duality of life, maintains gratitude and humility. Please enjoy the offerings that I bestow upon you within the pages of this book.
Peace , ONE Love, Light and Blessings
