The Old Order Changeth: Freemen Need No Guardians

Mustafa Kemal Atatürk was one of the most significant political leaders of the twentieth century -how should we understand Atatürk and his legacy? In this book, George Gawrych studies Atatürk's career in detail, showing how Atatürk's military background and subsequent political ideology combined with wider social forces to set Turkey on a path of secular nationalism and modernization. Hislegacy can be seen everywhere in Turkey today, from the role and rights of women in society to the after effects of Kemalism on the Republic's political landscape. Gawrych addresses the significant costs of Atatürk's policies, including the suppression of minorities and the imposition of a cult of personality and authoritarian rule in the name of 'Turkification'. The book presents a nuanced analysis of a complex figure who still casts a shadow over Turkey's political and intellectual discourse.

Father of the Republic of Turkey

In 2021, Anthony Seldon, inspired by a fallen First World War soldier who dreamed of a "Via Sacra" to commemorate the war dead and stand as a symbol of the triumph of peace, set out on a 600-mile walk tracing the historic route of the Western Front. He later recounted that journey in the widely acclaimed The Path of Peace.But lasting peace was not to be. Just two decades after the First World War, Europe descended into an even more devastating conflict.In The Path of Light, Seldon embarks on a new 800-mile journey, beginning once again at Kilometre Zero and ending at Auschwitz. Along the way, he uncovers the stories of women and men who courageously protected the vulnerable and stood up to evil in the face of unimaginable brutality during the Second World War.As he reflects on these "figures of light" and the inspiring stories he encounters in the towns and villages along his route, a pattern begins to emerge--one that offers lessons for building a more peaceful and compassionate world.Their example feels more relevant than ever, as the ominous and growing drumbeat of global belligerence forms the backdrop to Seldon's journey between 2023 and 2025. The Path of Light is both a remarkable travel narrative and a powerful meditation on courage, humanity, and hope in troubled times.

Die Falconer-Reihe von der Autorin der Emma-Harte-Saga

Der Abschluss der mitreißenden Saga der New-York-Times-Bestseller-Autorin!

1916: James Falconer - ein Tycoon und Selfmademan - ist auf dem Höhepunkt seiner Karriere angelangt. Doch dann zieht er in den Krieg. Die Kämpfe sind blutig und brutal. Und als der Krieg vorüber ist, kehrt James als veränderter Mann in eine Welt zurück, die nicht mehr die Gleiche ist. 

James leidet unter dem schrecklichen Verlust seiner geliebten Frau. Hoffnung gibt ihm jedoch die langsam wachsende Nähe zu seiner Tochter Leonie, auch wenn er spürt, dass er für die Jahre, in denen sie keinen Kontakt hatten, Wiedergutmachung leisten sollte. Und irgendwann muss James sich entscheiden, ob er in seinem Leben wieder Platz für die Liebe schaffen kann ...


Von London bis zu den pulsierenden Hafenstädten Englands und Frankreichs, von anmutigen Herrenhäusern in Gloucestershire bis zur Dekadenz von Paris - 'Der Glanz des Glücks' ist der Abschluss einer neuen unvergesslichen historischen Saga der Autorin der Emma-Harte-Saga.

'Bradfords Geschichte wird durch lebendige Charaktere bereichert, vor allem durch James, der sich heldenhaft bemüht, sein Leben neu zu gestalten. Der Glanz des Glücks ist ein befriedigender Abschluss einer wunderbar detailliert erzählten historischen Saga.' Publishers Weekly

The Education of an Artist

Lin-Manuel Miranda

After nearly twenty years of research, Bonnie J. Thompson, the daughter of former Logan County State's Attorney Roger W. Thompson, releases her tell-all trilogy, Buried Truth, a unique true crime saga about one woman's undying perseverance in a lonely battle for truth and justice.

In Part Two: Preponderance of Evidence, Thompson returns to Lincoln to conduct further investigation and unwittingly uncovers, what appears to be, a cover-up. Buried evidence connecting to one of the unsolved murders seems to link to one of the suspected accomplices in the triple homicide, and two former Lincoln detectives choose to conceal information about missing evidence. Thompson approaches her father's two assistants from 1976, and they willingly help in her investigation. She also meets scientist Dr. Lawrence Farwell, the inventor of Brain Fingerprinting, and he becomes involved in
her quest for truth.

In 2003, a retired Illinois State Police lieutenant - who was a former deputy sheriff and first responder at the scene of the triple homicide -agrees to assist Thompson but ultimately becomes unreliable and underhandedly removes critical evidence from the courthouse. Thompson and Farwell make contact with the former defense attorney and the mother of convicted triple murderer Michael Drabing, and Thompson makes arrangements to speak with Drabing at Menard Correctional Center, Illinois' largest maximum-security
prison.

When Thompson returns to her home in Idaho in November of 2003, she learns former Lincoln Detective William Krueger has released a book about his participation in two of the murder investigations. After reading his book, Thompson recognizes Krueger has withheld vital evidence from public knowledge and fabricated information pertaining to evidence. 

Read more of Thompson's unabridged trilogy as her story continues in the concluding Part Three: Plea for Justice.

A Sarah Booth Delaney Mystery

The next novel in the series that Kirkus Reviews characterizes as "Stephanie Plum meets the Ya-Ya Sisterhood" featuring sassy Southern private investigator Sarah Booth Delaney. Private investigator Sarah Booth Delaney returns to her Mississippi Delta roots, hoping that long drives through cotton fields and the companionship of her dogs will ease her restless spirit. Instead, she's confronted by a ghostly vision of a woman in white on the Tallahatchie Bridge, who disappears before Sarah Booth can investigate further. When the local bank president hires her to find a missing farmer, Danny Anderson, Sarah Booth is forced to shift her focus back to the land of the-hopefully-still living. Danny is about to lose his family's generational farm to foreclosure and is rumored to be entangled in a secret affair with a preacher's wife. As Sarah Booth and her feisty partner Tinkie dig deeper, they uncover a web of gossip, ghost sightings, and a shadowy land buyer snapping up vulnerable farms. With the help of her resident ghost-turned-spiritual-guide, Jitty, and her own unrelenting instincts, Sarah Booth must unravel the mystery of Danny's disappearance, confront a town full of half-truths, and decipher the cryptic clues left behind-including those wrapped in lyrics and riverwater. But someone is watching her every move, and if she isn't careful, she may be the next body swept away by the Tallahatchie's current.

Ode to the Bones

A Financial Times Best Book of the Year The definitive biography of Zhou Enlai, the first premier and preeminent diplomat of the People's Republic of China, who protected his country against the excesses of his boss-Chairman Mao. Zhou Enlai spent twenty-seven years as premier of the People's Republic of China and ten as its foreign minister. He was also its legendary spymaster. Richard Nixon proclaimed him "the greatest statesman of our era." Yet Zhou has always been overshadowed by Chairman Mao. Chen Jian brings Zhou into the light, offering a nuanced portrait of a revolutionary and master diplomat whose vision shaped China and the broader world. Born to a declining mandarin family in 1898, Zhou received a classical education and as a teenager spent time in modernizing Japan. Zhou embraced communist revolution as a vehicle for China's own development, yet Zhou was never a committed Maoist. While he worked closely with the chairman, he used his extraordinary political and bureaucratic skill to mitigate the damage caused by Mao's radicalism and maintain China's international standing. When Zhou died in 1976, the China we know today was not yet visible on the horizon. He never saw a glistening Shanghai skyline or the emergence of Chinese capitalism. But the Chinese influence now felt in every corner of the globe rests on Zhou's work.
