Hardcover. Condition: Near Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. tonewall" Jackson, a hopelessly by-the-book military instructor and devout Christian. His fierce exterior hides a compassionate soul that few- students and soldiers alike- will ever see, and he becomes the greatest commander of the Civil War. We follow (illustrator). 1st Edition. large Size Book, 1st Printing.Here is Thomas "Stonewall" Jackson, a hopelessly by-the-book military instructor and devout Christian. His fierce exterior hides a compassionate soul that few- students and soldiers alike- will ever see, and he becomes the greatest commander of the Civil War. We follow Winfield Scott Hancock, a Captain of Quartermasters who is assigned command of a brigade of infantry, quickly establishing himself as one of the finest leaders in the Union army. Then there is Joshua Chamberlain, who gives up his promising academic career to volunteer for service in the new army, only to become one of the most heroic soldiers in American history. And here too is a brilliant portrait of the complex, aristocratic Robert E. Lee, who is faced with the agonizing decision of resigning from a distinguished thirty-year army career in order to defend his home, never believing until too late that a civil war would ever truly come to pass. As the war gathers momentum, Stonewall Jackson wins his reputation by a series of stinging victories over ineptly led Union forces. Lee, finally given command of the Confederate forces, recognizes that this strange, devout, and dangerous man is his greatest weapon. For a time, it truly seems as if Lee will lead his army to final victory. Nowhere is this plainer than at the Battle of Fredericksburg, where, for the first time, all four men meet on the same field and experience the exhilaration and raw horror of battle. But it is in the next great fight, the Battle of Chancellorsville, that Lee's brilliant strategy, and Jackson's supreme achievement, are overshadowed when Jackson is mortally wounded by his own men. This loss is the true turning point of the war. Lee now realizes that against the ever-growing numbers of Union forces, he can only win by a direct threat to Washington. So the battle-hardened armies of the Confederacy begin their fateful invasion of the North, toward an obscure crossroads in Pennsylvania called Gettysburg.

Hardcover. Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. Levavi, Meryl Sussman (book design); Brennan, Lisa Marie (endpaper illustrations); Miller, Jeff (jacket design) (illustrator). New condition black boards with red spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes List of Other Books by Jeffrey Kluger; Author Dedication; Prologue; Epilogue; Author's Note; Index and About the Author. Illustrated with a section of both black-and-white and color photographic plates plus color illustrated front and rear endpapers. "No matter how many times you return to the Apollo missions, you never exhaust their thrilling seat-of-your-pants suspense. But here, in the superbly capable hands of Jeffrey Kluger, the little-known story of Apollo 8 bursts vividly to life. I couldn't put it down." - Ken Burns, director. "It was refreshing to read about my friends Frank Borman, Jim Lovell, and Bill Anders and follow their record-setting trip to the moon. Jeffrey has got it all exactly straight and I enjoyed reading it very much." - Michael Collins, command module pilot, Apollo 11. "Drawing on historical transcripts and documents and his own extensive interviews with the leading players, Jeffrey Kluger paints a portrait of the U.S. space program and the first manned expedition to the moon so vivid that we feel ourselves riding in the hurtling rocket with the astronauts, taut with the thrill, the danger, and the cosmic meaning of the mission. Apollo 8 is storytelling at its best." - Alan Lightman, MIT professor. "The untold story of the first Apollo mission to the moon, which closed out one of our darkest years with a nearly unimaginable triumph. In August 1968, NASA made a bold decision: in just sixteen weeks, the United States would launch humankind's first flight to the moon. Only the year before, three astronauts had burned to death in their spacecraft, and since then the Apollo program had suffered one setback after another. Meanwhile, the Russians were winning the space race, the Cold War was getting hotter by the month, and President Kennedy's promise to put a man on the moon by the end of the decade seemed sure to be broken. But when Frank Borman, Jim Lovell, and Bill Anders were summoned to a secret meeting and told of the dangerous mission, they instantly signed on. Written with all the color and verve of the best narrative nonfiction, Apollo 8 takes us from Mission Control to the astronauts' homes, from the test labs to the launchpad. The race to prepare an untested rocket for an unprecedented journey paves the way for the hair-raising trip to the moon. Then, on Christmas Day, a nation that has suffered a horrendous year of assassinations and war is heartened by an inspiring message from the trio of astronauts in lunar orbit. And when the mission is over - after the first view of the far side of the moon, the first earthrise, and the first reentry through the Earth's atmosphere following a flight to deep space - the impossible dream of walking on the moon suddenly seems within reach. The full story of Apollo 8 has never been told, and only Jeffrey Kluger - Jim Lovell's coauthor of the bestselling book about Apollo 13 - can do it justice. Here is the tale of a mission that was both a calculated risk and a wild crapshoot, a stirring account of how three American heroes forever changed our view of the home planet." - from the inner front jacket flap.

"A rare, insider's look at the life of Donald Trump from the bestselling author of the Killing series, based on exclusive interview material and deep research. Readers around the world have been enthralled by journalist and New York Times bestselling author Bill O'Reilly's Killing series - riveting works of nonfiction that explore the most famous events in history. Now O'Reilly turns his razor-sharp observations to his most compelling subject thus far - President Donald J. Trump. In this thrilling narrative, O'Reilly blends primary, never-before-released interview material with a history that recounts Trump's childhood and family and the factors from his life and career that forged the worldview the president of the United States has taken to the White House. Not a partisan pro-Trump or anti-Trump book, this is an up-to-the-minute, intimate view of the man and his sphere of influence - of "how Donald Trump's view of America was formed and how it has changed since he became the most powerful person in the world" - from a writer who has known the president for thirty years. This is an unprecedented, gripping account of the life of a sitting president as he makes history. As the author will tell you, "If you want some insight into the most unlikely political phenomenon of our lifetimes, you'll get it here." - from the inner front jacket flap "This book was a bear to write. Almost as difficult as Killing Jesus, which required methodical research to separate myth from reality. Same thing here - the Trump myth collided with the Trump reality, and getting to the truth was no easy matter. That's because much of what has been written and said about President Trump is false, stated through a prism of disdain and, on the other side, adulation. Either way, there is so much garbage floating around the Trump story, I felt more like a sanitation worker than a reporter. But report I did, without fear or favor. If you despise Donald Trump, this book may frustrate you. It tells the truth about the man, both good and bad. It is not pro- or anti-Trump. It is history. I was in a good position to work on the project because I've known the president for more than thirty years.But I am not a close friend of his because he doesn't have many of those, and there is a reason for this, which we'll examine.Hopefully, this book will explain the why behind the power. The why behind the bluster. The why behind the hatred he absorbs and sometimes dishes out. And most important, the key question: HOW ON EARTH did he get to the Oval Office?" - excerpt from the Foreword by Bill O'Reilly, Manhasset, New York, Valentine's Day, 2019, Dusk.

"Mama and Papa just winked at each other. 'Good question!' said Mama. 'Let's see, maybe it's time that I tell you the tale of how snowpeople all come to be.'" When the Snowblatt kinds, Snow-Ellen and Snow-John, ask where snowpeople come from, their parents tell them the fun-to-read, fun-to-hear tale, explaining not only how snowpeople are made but what secretly brings them to life. Cheryl Hawkinson and Mike Esberg are the same talented team that created the Chritmastime best sellers Snow What FUn! and The Snowbelly Family of Chillyville Inn. In this new story, CHeryl's charming, rollicking verse and Mike's smile-bringing illustrations create a book that will be a seasonal favorite." - from the rear outer jacket and rear outer cover.

Illustrated with two sections of black-and-white photographic plates plus black-and-white photographic front and rear endpapers. " "My father didn't die - he escaped." He was a movie star, the king of nightclubs, the definitive recording artist of his time. He stamped his sense of style on the postwar generation. His death at 82 was mourned the world over by people who heard his music as the soundtrack of their lives, and who saw him as one of their own. Frank Sinatra seemed to have it all: genius, wealth, the love of beautiful women, glamorous friends from Las Vegas to the White House. Why then would Tina Sinatra, his younger daughter, refer to his death as an "escape"? What happened to make his life so difficult? In this startling and remarkably outspoken memoir, Tina Sinatra reveals to us an acutely restless, lonely and conflicted man - especially in affairs of the heart. Through his marriages and front-page romances and the melancholy gaps between, Frank Sinatra searched for a contentment that eluded him. He was drawn to gifted, talented women, but when they failed to provide the support and attention he needed, he became angry and frustrated. Tina Sinatra's view of her father was unique. The youngest of three children, she was born during his first flush of stardom, six months before he left her mother, Nancy, to pursue actress Ava Gardner. By the time Tina entered school, her father had married Ava, the great passion of his life. Tina liked Ava, found her "easy to be with, and.genuinely interested in us." A dozen years later, Tina would form a close friendship with her father's third wife, Mia Farrow, only three years Tina's senior. Through these years Frank Sinatra continued to remain devoted to his three children - and to their mother as well, for this is also the portrait of an extraordinary bond and a very special kind of family. Then Barbara Marx appeared on the scene. A former Vegas showgirl, she quickly severed her ties to husband Zeppo Marx (known as the "unfunny Marx Brother"). She soon became Sinatra's constant companion and eventually his fourth wife. Tina initially welcomed Barbara, and hoped the relationship would provide her father with the attention he needed. But it wasn't long before Tina came to fear that Barbara was trying to erase Sinatra's children from his life. She was forced to watch helplessly as her father, running from his own discontent, pursued a grueling performance schedule well into his seventies. She saw him risk his health and his own proud professional standards. Worst of all, she saw her father become joyless, beaten down, and depressed. Tina became alienated for a time - an estrangement that ended when Sinatra fell gravely ill. Over the last eighteen months of his life she became closer to him than ever, as she came fully to understand the complex emotinal package of the brightest, most enduring star of our age. My Father's Daughter, with its unflinching account of Sinatra's flaws and foibles, will shock many of his fans. At the same time, it is a deeply affectionate portrait written with love and warmth, a celebration of a daughter's fond esteem for her father and respect for his great legacy. The world remembers Frank SInatra as one of the giants of show business. In this book from someone inside the legend, Tina Sinatra remembers him as something more; a father, and a man." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
