Pharaoh's daughter declared him to be her son, but he chose to be a son of Israel. He tried to lead the quiet life of a shepherd, but the Lord sent him to tell Pharaoh: Let my people go.

He also explores the lives of Moses' brother Aaron, his sister Miriam, the two women he called "mother", and the woman he married. Who knew him better than these fellow travelers on the long journey from the despair of slavery to the joy of liberation, from reliance on their own wit and strength to putting themselves in the hands of God? All their lives were remarkable, and in these pages you will come to know them all.

Crawling from the Wreckage

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dyer, Gwynne, PUBLISHER: Random House Canada, In this illuminating collection of columns from the last five years, Gwynne Dyer finds reasons to be optimistic about the world, and searches for clues to how and when we turned the corner. Gwynne Dyer is cheering up. Sure, the past decade has had more than its share of stupid wars, obsessions about terrorism, denial about climate change, rapacious turbo-capitalism, and lies, lies, lies. But signs of progress actually do abound. While the world is far from perfect as we embark on a fresh decade, Dyer believes that the "sense of sliding out of control towards ten different kinds of disaster has gone." When things go wrong it's always easy to pin blame -- but singling out the forces that lead to positive change can be trickier. In Dyer's previous book of columns, With Every Mistake, the focus was on how everything got so bad. With this new collection, Dyer ferrets out the signs of hope, combing through the events of recent history in an attempt to anticipate what the future might have in store. For anyone who wants to understand the larger forces that shape our society and our world, Crawling from the Wreckage makes for necessary and vital reading.

From Beachhead to Brittany: The 29th Infantry Division at

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Balkoski, Joseph, PUBLISHER: Stackpole Books, Engaging history of a controversial World War II battle Brilliantly researched and compellingly written by a top military historian In this highly anticipated sequel to "Beyond the Beachhead," historian Joseph Balkoski follows the U.S. 29th Infantry Division out of Normandy and into Brittany in the northwest corner of France, where the division was tasked with seizing the port of Brest. The German defenders, including elite paratroopers, fought fiercely for every inch of ground and inflicted heavy casualties on the Americans during bloody house-to-house fighting. By the time the Germans surrendered, the Allies had taken other ports, thus rendering Brest nearly useless and casting doubt on the decision to capture it in the first place. Balkoski tells the story of the battle, from the generals who ordered the attack to the infantrymen who slogged through the streets of Brest.

Indigenous Resurgence in the Contemporary Caribbean:

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Forte, Maximilian C. / Forte, Maximilian Christian, PUBLISHER: Lang, Peter, Publishing Inc., Views of the modern Caribbean have been constructed by a fiction of the absent aboriginal. Yet, all across the Caribbean Basin, individuals and communities are reasserting their identities as indigenous peoples, from Carib communities in the Lesser Antilles, the Garifuna of Central America, and the Taino of the Greater Antilles, to members of the Caribbean diaspora.

This is the only volume to date that focuses concerted attention on a phenomenon that can no longer be ignored. Territories covered include Belize, Cuba, Dominica, the Dominican Republic, French Guiana, Guyana, St. Vincent, Suriname, Trinidad and Tobago, and the Puerto Rican diaspora. Writing from a range of contemporary perspectives on indigenous presence, identities, the struggle for rights, relations with the nation-state, and globalization, fourteen scholars, including four indigenous representatives, contribute to this unique tesament to cultural survival. This book will be indispensable to students of Caribbean history and anthropology, indigenous studies, ethnicity, and globalization.
