＜p＞＜strong＞Classic tales that capture the heroic and indomitable spirit of our great land＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞The twelve stories in this collection run the spectrum of human emotions as they transport us from the fading majesty of the Old West to a small-town football field to the lonely canyons of one man’s mind. These classic tales of adventure, mystery, mysticism, and suspense epitomize the uniquely American yearning for connection and roots, justice and love, as only L’Amour can. Here is a diverse group of heroes and traitors, outlaws and lawmenーthe innocent, the guilty, and those who operate in the shadowy territory outside the reach of justice.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The wastelands of Death Valley form the backdrop for the tale of a desperate man who leads his pursuers into a desert trapーwhere heat and thirst are his only weapons. A rodeo rider framed for a crime he didn’t commit takes a wild ride on a legendary bronco that may help him catch the real killers. An American pilot flies Russian and British agents into the labyrinthine forests of Asiatic Russiaーonly to discover that one of them is a traitor. A hit man discovers the fatal limits of friendship; and a quest for revenge becomes a frantic race to find a cache of gold hidden in the drifting sands of the Southwest. And in a powerful and moving parable, an Indian boy must lead his family across a drought-ravaged land with nothing to guide him but his faith.＜/p＞ ＜p＞The gripping title story counts down the final hours of a wounded man struggling to fend off his enemies and certain death. Before time runs out, he must finish the most important task of his life: a letter to his unborn son that will vindicate the family name. Filled with a special brand of passion and drama, ＜em＞From the Listening Hills＜/em＞ is an exemplary collection that showcases the enduring talents of one of America’s most beloved authors.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Running Home A Memoir【電子書籍】[ Katie Arnold ]

＜p＞＜strong＞In the tradition of ＜em＞Wild＜/em＞ and ＜em＞H Is for Hawk,＜/em＞ an ＜em＞Outside＜/em＞ magazine writer tells her storyーof fathers and daughters, grief and renewal, adventure and obsession, and the power of running to change your life.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY ＜em＞REAL SIMPLE＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞I’m running to forget, and to remember.＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞For more than a decade, Katie Arnold chased adventure around the world, reporting on extreme athletes who performed outlandish featsーwalking high lines a thousand feet off the ground without a harness, or running one hundred miles through the night. She wrote her stories by living them, until eventually life on the thin edge of risk began to seem normal. After she married, Katie and her husband vowed to raise their daughters to be adventurous, too, in the mountains and canyons of New Mexico. But when her father died of cancer, she was forced to confront her own mortality.＜/p＞ ＜p＞His death was cataclysmic, unleashing a perfect storm of grief and anxiety. She and her father, an enigmatic photographer for ＜em＞National Geographic,＜/em＞ had always been kindred spirits. He introduced her to the outdoors and took her camping and on bicycle trips and down rivers, and taught her to find solace and courage in the natural world. And it was he who encouraged her to run her first race when she was seven years old.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Now nearly paralyzed by fear and terrified she was dying, too, she turned to the thing that had always made her feel most alive: running. Over the course of three tumultuous years, she ran alone through the wilderness, logging longer and longer distances, first a 50-kilometer ultramarathon, then 50 miles, then 100 kilometers. She ran to heal her grief, to outpace her worry that she wouldn’t live to raise her own daughters. She ran to find strength in her weakness. She ran to remember and to forget. She ran to live.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Ultrarunning tests the limits of human endurance over seemingly inhuman distances, and as she clocked miles across mesas and mountains, Katie learned to tolerate pain and discomfort, and face her fears of uncertainty, vulnerability, and even death itself. As she ran, she found herself peeling back the layers of her relationship with her father, discovering that much of what she thought she knew about him, and her own past, was wrong.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞Running Home＜/em＞ is a memoir about the stories we tell ourselves to make sense of our worldーthe stories that hold us back, and the ones that set us free. Mesmerizing, transcendent, and deeply exhilarating, it is a book for anyone who has been knocked over by life, or feels the pull of something bigger and wilder within themselves.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞“A beautiful work of searching remembrance and searing honesty . . . Katie Arnold is as gifted on the page as she is on the trail. ＜em＞Running Home＜/em＞ will soon join such classics as ＜em＞Born to Run＜/em＞ and ＜em＞Ultramarathon Man＜/em＞ as quintessential reading of the genre.”ーHampton Sides, author of ＜em＞On Desperate Ground＜/em＞ and ＜em＞Ghost Soldiers＜/em＞＜/strong＞＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Trench Warfare: A Manual for Officers and Men【電子書籍】[ Joseph Shuter Smith ]

＜p＞It is a safe bet that when the German army started for Paris they had plans for use in the event of disaster. The disaster occurred, and a new type of warfare requiring the highest courage, skill and endurance was born. I say born because although trench warfare was known before, it died in birth compared to this war, for the amount of science, energy and variety of weapons used. More earth has been removed by a combination of man, pick and shovel in making these trenches than was excavated to make the Panama Canal possible, and in less time. It is my object in this book to give a faint idea and knowledge of the trenches, and to approximately explain the way warfare is carried on, and I offer the information contained herein as a basic foundation on which to use the further knowledge you will gain as an officer, and which, for obvious reasons, I will not and cannot give here. The notes are all taken from different courses of instruction, and observations made during thirty-one months of service, fifteen of which was spent on the Belgian and French fronts, both as private and officer in the infantry service. I do not lay down my information as expert and final by any means, but as trench warfare changes from day to day, improvements are made, old ideas discarded, new ones tried, it can be seen that nothing can be laid down as a cut and dried rule, but the principles of trench building, generally speaking, remain the same. This I have endeavored to give, along with a few other notes which will give an idea of the many and varied tasks that a second lieutenant must know before he is fit to take hold of men in a place such as the Western Front, where there is very seldom a chance to rectify mistakes, or to experiment more than once. When the British and French armies started their retreat from Mons, as far as the British army was concerned they were hampered by their want of knowledge of trench warfare as used in the South African war. The men retired day by day, hardly staying in one place long enough to dig themselves in. At that time for digging a trench system, one valuable lesson was learned, and that was, that the hole such as they had been taught to make in just such circumstances as they were up against then was no good, as it offered them no protection from overhead shrapnel, and at the best of times made a very poor shelter. This hole used to be dug a little more than the width of a man and straight back his full length, he naturally throwing the dirt in front of him and thus making a little parapet. When the battle of the Marne commenced and the British and the French drove forward, this valuable lesson and many others had been learned, so that when the armies had reached the limits of their endurance, instead of digging themselves in in the old style, a new system was used, greatly assisted by shell fire. A round hole was dug by each man to fit his individual size and made to suit himself. Here he squatted and fought, if necessary, and got what rest was possible during that day, with the enemies’ line at distances varying from 100 to 500 yards from him. During the night, these men when not fighting or bothered by counter-attacks, or trying to obtain rations, water and the many necessaries that a fighting man requires, deepened their shelters and joined them together by little narrow ditches. During the next day there might be bitter fighting, so it would be even possible that other troops would come up and relieve during the early dusk. The relieved troops would retire a short distance and dig themselves another row of little holes where they might act as supports in case the temporary front line gave. During that night the holes on the front line would be enlarged until they finally joined and gradually without deliberate intention the trench became a permanent feature.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Upward Bound Nine Original Accounts of How Business Leaders Reached Their Summits【電子書籍】[ Michael Useem ]

＜p＞Your team has faltered at a critical moment. A key member says he can’t continue, requiring you to make a snap decision: Do you write him off? Or do you risk the whole venture by trying to get him back on his feet?＜/p＞ ＜p＞It could be a scenario straight from the business world.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Yet this one occurred high on the slopes of the world’s deadliest mountain, K2, where lives, not just livelihoods, depended on the leader’s choice.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Decisions don’t get much starker. That’s why mountainsーthough seemingly a world apart from businessーhold unique and surprising insights for managers and entrepreneurs at any altitude. More than just symbols of our upward strivings, they are high-altitude management laboratories: testing grounds where risk, fear, opportunity, and ambition collide in the most unforgiving of settings.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜strong＞Upward Bound＜/strong＞ brings together a remarkable team of nine writers equally at home among the high peaks and in the corridors of corporate power, including ＜strong＞Good to Great＜/strong＞ author Jim Collins, legendary climber and outdoor clothing entrepreneur Royal Robbins, and Stacy Allison, the first American woman to summit Mount Everest. Their riveting, often harrowing accounts, reveal＜/p＞ ＜p＞? Why rock climbers’ distinction between failure (giving up before reaching the edge of your abilities) and what they call “fallure” (committing 100 percent and using up all your energy and reserves) can help companies transcend their vertical limits＜br /＞ ? What happens when a leader abdicates responsibility in the Death Zone of Mount Everestーand how a similar vacuum at sea level can corrupt corporate purpose＜br /＞ ? How large climbing expeditions use exquisite organization and “pyramids of people” to place just two climbers on top, making heroes of some from the sacrifice of all＜br /＞ ? What “ridge-walking” between deadly avalanches and the lure of Mount McKinley’s summit taught a venture capitalist about nurturing risky high-tech start-ups＜br /＞ ? How a simple insightーusing “proximate goals”ーpropelled a faltering climber up El Capitan in a seemingly undoable solo ascent, a ten-day lesson that would later jump-start a business＜br /＞ ? Why more accessible peaks like Mount Sinai can exert a pull every bit as powerful as Mount Everest＜br /＞ ? How to think like a guide＜/p＞ ＜p＞While most people will never find themselves in the thin air of the world’s highest places, ＜strong＞Upward Bound＜/strong＞ brings those places down to earth for anyone seeking the path to his or her own summit. Whether it’s up the career ladder or toward a creative peak, ＜strong＞Upward Bound＜/strong＞ addresses the fundamental question of why we climb, while capturing the power of mountains to instruct as well as inspire.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜strong＞Longlisted for the 2014 National Book Award＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞The astonishing story of a unique missionary projectーand the America it embodiedーfrom award-winning historian John Demos.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Near the start of the nineteenth century, as the newly established United States looked outward toward the wider world, a group of eminent Protestant ministers formed a grand scheme for gathering the rest of mankind into the redemptive fold of Christianity and “civilization.” Its core element was a special school for “heathen youth” drawn from all parts of the earth, including the Pacific Islands, China, India, and, increasingly, the native nations of North America. If all went well, graduates would return to join similar projects in their respective homelands. For some years, the school prospered, indeed became quite famous. However, when two Cherokee students courted and married local women, public resolveーand fundamental idealsーwere put to a severe test.＜/p＞ ＜p＞＜em＞The Heathen School＜/em＞ follows the progress, and the demise, of this first true melting pot through the lives of individual students: among them, Henry Obookiah, a young Hawaiian who ran away from home and worked as a seaman in the China Trade before ending up in New England; John Ridge, son of a powerful Cherokee chief and subsequently a leader in the process of Indian “removal”; and Elias Boudinot, editor of the first newspaper published by and for Native Americans. From its birth as a beacon of hope for universal “salvation,” the heathen school descends into bitter controversy, as American racial attitudes harden and intensify. Instead of encouraging reconciliation, the school exposes the limits of tolerance and sets off a chain of events that will culminate tragically in the Trail of Tears.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In ＜em＞The Heathen School＜/em＞, John Demos marshals his deep empathy and feel for the textures of history to tell a moving story of families and communitiesーand to probe the very roots of American identity.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞＜em＞Oil on the Brain＜/em＞ is a smart, surprisingly funny account of the oil industryーthe people, economies, and pipelines that bring us petroleum, brilliantly illuminating a world we encounter every day.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Americans buy ten thousand gallons of gasoline a second, without giving it much of a thought. Where does all this gas come from? Lisa Margonelli’s desire to learn took her on a one-hundred thousand mile journey from her local gas station to oil fields half a world away. In search of the truth behind the myths, she wriggled her way into some of the most off-limits places on earth: the Strategic Petroleum Reserve, the New York Mercantile Exchange’s crude oil market, oil fields from Venezuela, to Texas, to Chad, and even an Iranian oil platform where the United States fought a forgotten one-day battle.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In a story by turns surreal and alarming, Margonelli meets lonely workers on a Texas drilling rig, an oil analyst who almost gave birth on the NYMEX trading floor, Chadian villagers who are said to wander the oil fields in the guise of lions, a Nigerian warlord who changed the world price of oil with a single cell phone call, and Shanghai bureaucrats who dream of creating a new Detroit.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Deftly piecing together the mammoth economy of oil, Margonelli finds a series of stark warning signs for American drivers.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

＜p＞Agency Pods represent a revolutionary shift in organisational structure. For more than a century, businesses have unknowingly held themselves back by traditionally organising their teams by job function. While it might sound sensible, this organisational structure places strict limits on the ability for organisations to grow, innovate, and acquire talent. Enter the Agency Pod; a new way to organise employees that breaks from the traditional constraints of function-based set ups.＜/p＞ ＜p＞With this innovative new industry structure, employees are aligned into small, cross-functional teams, or Pods, that act as internal agencies responsible for specific clients every need. This contrasts the traditional single function model, where departments handle only small parts of client or project deliverables, creating a highly collaborative, nimble, and laser focused environment which allows organisations of all kinds to become much more responsive to client requests and changing market conditions.＜/p＞ ＜p＞As this new business organisational structure takes the corporate world by storm, leading System Integrators and Service Providers globally have either already moved to the pod model or are hastily doing so. In ＜em＞Agency Pods: The Definitive Guide＜/em＞, Bhatti and Biddiscombe blow the lid off one of the most closely guarded secrets in business consulting by explaining how to implement it, how to measure it, and what success looks like.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

After years of bitter combatーStallone once threw a bowl of flowers at Schwarzenegger’s head, and the body count in Schwarzenegger’s ＜em＞Commando＜/em＞ was increased so the film would “have a bigger dick than ＜em＞Rambo＜/em＞”ーthe world’s biggest action stars have at last made peace.＜/p＞ ＜p＞In this wildly entertaining account of the golden age of the action movie, Nick de Semlyen charts Stallone and Schwarzenegger’s carnage-packed journey from enmity to friendship against the backdrop of Reagan’s America and the Cold War.

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】Before the Lights Go Out A Season Inside a Game on the Brink【電子書籍】[ Sean Fitz-Gerald ]

＜p＞＜strong＞A love letter to a sport that's losing itself, from one of Canada's best sports writers.＜/strong＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞Canadian hockey is approaching a state of crisis. It's become more expensive, more exclusive, and effectively off-limits to huge swaths of the potential sports-loving population. Youth registration numbers are stagnant; efforts to appeal to new Canadians are often grim at best; the game, increasingly, does not resemble the country of which it's for so long been an integral part.＜br /＞ These signs worried Sean Fitz-Gerald. As a lifelong hockey fan and father of a young mixed-race son falling headlong in love with the game, he wanted to get to the roots of these issues. His entry point: a season with the Peterborough Petes, a storied OHL team far from its former glory in a once-emblematic Canadian city that is finding itself on the wrong side of the country's changing demographics. Fitz-Gerald profiles the players, coaches and front office staff, a mix of world-class talents with NHL aspirations and Peterborough natives happy with more modest dreams. Through their experiences, their widely varied motivations and expectations, we get a rich, colourful understanding of who ends up playing hockey in Canada and why.＜br /＞ Fitz-Gerald interweaves the action of the season with portraits of public figures who've shaped and been shaped by the game: authors who captured its spirit, politicians who exploited it, and broadcasters who try to embody and sell it. He finds his way into community meetings full of angry season ticket holders, as well as into sterile boardrooms full of the sport's institutional brain trust, unable to break away from the inertia of tradition and hopelessly at war with itself.＜br /＞ ＜em＞Before the Lights Go Out＜/em＞ is a moving, funny, yet unsettling picture of a sport at a crossroads. Fitz-Gerald's warm but rigorous journalistic approach reads, in the end, like a letter to a troubled friend: it's not too late to save hockey in this country, but who has the will to do it?＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Disappearance of God Dangerous Beliefs in the New Spiritual Openness【電子書籍】[ Dr. R. Albert Mohler ]

＜p＞“Great biblical truths are meant not only for our intellectual acceptance, but for our spiritual health.” ?Dr. Al Mohler＜/p＞ ＜p＞More faulty information about God swirls around us today than ever before. No wonder so many followers of Christ are unsure of what they really believe in the face of the new spiritual openness attempting to alter unchanging truth.＜/p＞ ＜p＞For centuries the church has taught and guarded the core Christian beliefs that make up the essential foundations of the faith. But in our postmodern age, sloppy teaching and outright lies create rampant confusion, and many Christians are free-falling for “feel-good” theology.＜/p＞ ＜p＞We need to know the truth to save ourselves from errors that will derail our faith.＜/p＞ ＜p＞As biblical scholar, author, and president of The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Dr. Albert Mohler, writes, “The entire structure of Christian truth is now under attack.” With wit and wisdom he tackles the most important aspects of these modern issues:＜br /＞ Is God changing His mind about ＜em＞sin＜/em＞?＜br /＞ Why is hell off limits for many pastors?＜br /＞ What’s good or bad about the “dangerous” emergent movement?＜br /＞ Have Christians stopped seeing God as God?＜br /＞ Is the social justice movement misguided?＜br /＞ Could the role of beauty be critical to our theology?＜br /＞ Is liberal faith any less destructive than atheism?＜br /＞ Are churches pandering to their members to survive?＜/p＞ ＜p＞In the age-old battle to preserve the foundations of faith, it's up to a new generation to confront and disarm the contemporary shams and fight for the truth. Dr. Mohler provides the scriptural answers to show you how.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める！】The Spontaneous Healing of Belief Shattering the Paradigm of False Limits【電子書籍】[ Gregg Braden ]

＜p＞**From the ＜em＞New York Times＜/em＞ bestselling author of ＜em＞The Divine Matrix＜/em＞ and ＜em＞Resilience from the Heart＜/em＞＜/p＞ ＜p＞What would it mean to discover that everything from the DNA of life, to the future of our world, is based upon a simple ＜em＞Reality Code＜/em＞ーone that we can change and upgrade by choice? New revelations in physics and biology suggest that we’re about to find out!**＜/p＞ ＜p＞A growing body of scientific evidence suggests that our universe works like a Consciousness Computer. Rather than the number codes of typical software, our Consciousness Computer uses a language that we all have, yet are only beginning to understand. Life’s reality code is based in the language of human emotion and focused ＜em＞belief＜/em＞. Knowing that belief is our reality-maker, the way we think of ourselves and our world is now more important than ever!＜/p＞ ＜p＞For us to change the beliefs that have led to war, disease, and the failed careers and relationships of our past we need a reason to see things differently. Our ancestors used miracles to change what they believed. Today we use science. ＜em＞The Spontaneous Healing of Belief＜/em＞ offers us both: the miracles that open the door to a powerful new way of seeing the world, and the science that tells us why the miracles are possible, revealing: why we are not limited by the "laws" of physics and biology as we know them today.＜/p＞ ＜p＞Once we become aware of the paradigm-shattering discoveries and true-life miracles, we ＜em＞must＜/em＞ think of ourselves differently. And that difference is where the spontaneous healing of belief begins.＜/p＞画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
