Hardcover. Condition: As New. Dust Jacket Condition: As New. 1st Edition. As new condition white boards/olive green spine/gold spine lettering contained in an as new condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes Acknowledgments; Foreword by Carl Anderson; Preface by Archbishop Charles J. Chaput; and Interviews with Pierre and Veronique Sanches. Translated by Rev. Gregory Gresko. "The Christian life we are called to live within the family is not something just to be studied. It is something to be lived. And it is something to be lived with joy." - Carl Anderson, from the Foreword "When the Catholic Church speaks of "vocation," she means the "calling out" of each human person to accomplish a task preordained by God in the co-redemption of the world. Every human being has a vocation. God created each individual soul with a specific purpose in mind. Thus, the greatest joy for a Christian is pursuing the purpose for which God created him or her. For Christians, marriage is a vocation. In this series of interviews and reflections, The Secretary of the Pontifical Council for the Family at the Vatican focuses on the intricacies of family. Bishop Laffitte provides theological and practical insight to deepen our relationships with our parents, children, brothers and sisters, and ultimately, God. The Choice of the Family stresses the importance of the family in the twenty-first century, and issues a call to action for everyone to reinvigorate the teachings of Jesus in his or her day-to-day life." - from the inner front jacket flap.…

As new condition black boards with gold spine lettering contained in an as new condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes Dramatis Personae, Maps, Preface, Acknowledgments, Notes Bibliography, and Index. "In recent decades the Middle East has proved to be one of the most troubling as well as important parts of the world. The war in Iraq, the standoff with Iran, the regular failures to find a diplomatic solution to the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, and the continuing danger posed by al Qaeda all testify to the intractability of the region's problems. Presidents from Jimmy Carter to George W. Bush have grappled with the region's persistent and cross-cutting conflicts, and confronted fundamental questions about the use of force, the role of allies, and international law. In A Choice of Enemies, Lawrence Freedman shows how three events in 1979 set the terms for the later U.S. involvement in the Middle East: the Egyptian-Israeli Peace Treaty; the Islamic revolution in Iran leading to the Shah's overthrow followed by the American embassy siege; and the Soviet invasion in Afghanistan. Through a series of vivid accounts he describes the many dramas into which the U.S. was then drawn, including the withdrawal from Beirut, the Iran-Contra Affair, and 9/11. In this wise and penetrating history, Freedman provides an essential guide to the origins of America's current predicament in the Middle East. By illuminating the decisions of the past A Choice of Enemies also casts light on the challenges for the future."- from the inner front jacket flap.

Now he turns his unrivaled talents to a new tale about love found and lost, and the decisions we hope we'll never have to make. Travis Parker has everything a man could want: a good job, loyal friends, even a waterfront home in small-town North Carolina. In full pursuit of the good life - boating, swimming, and regular berbecues with his close buddies - he holds the vague conviction that a serous relationship with a woman would only cramp his style. That is until Gabby Holland moves in next door. Despite his attempts to be neighborly, the attractive redhead seems to have a grudge against him.and the presence of her longtime boyfriend doesn't help. Still, Travis can't stop trying to ingratiate himself with his new neighbor, and his persistent efforts lead them both to the doorstep of a journey that neither could have foreseen. Spanning the eventful years of young love, marriage, and family, The Choice ultimately confronts us with the most heartwrenching question of all: How far should you go to keep the hope of love alive?" - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps.
