Night Ship - Jess Kiddová

Based on a true story, an epic historical novel from the award-winning author of Things in Jars that illuminates the lives of two characters: a girl shipwrecked on an island off Western Australia and, three hundred years later, a boy finding a home with his grandfather on the very same island.1629: A newly orphaned young girl named Mayken is bound for the Dutch East Indies on the Batavia, one of the greatest ships of the Dutch Golden Age. Curious and mischievous, Mayken spends the long journey going on misadventures above and below the deck, searching for a mythical monster. But the true monsters might be closer than she thinks. 1989: A lonely boy named Gil is sent to live off the coast of Western Australia among the seasonal fishing community where his late mother once resided. There, on the tiny reef-shrouded island, he discovers the story of an infamous shipwreck… With her trademark “thrilling, mysterious, twisted, but more than anything, beautifully written” (Graham Norton, New York Times bestselling author) storytelling, Jess Kidd weaves “a true work of magic” (V.E. Schwab, author of The Invisible Life of Addie LaRue) about friendship, sacrifice, brutality, and forgiveness.

Kniha túžob - Sue Monk Kiddová

Fascinujúci príbeh o odvekých snoch a túžbach a o sile ženy zmeniť svet.„Som Ana. Bola som manželkou Ježiša, syna Jozefa Nazaretského.“ Takto sa začína fiktívny životopis Ježišovej družky, hoci o jej existencii Biblia neprináša žiadne správy. Príbeh sa odvíja od roku 16 nášho letopočtu, keď v Galilei vládli Rimania. Ana vyrastá v zámožnej židovskej rodine. Je to múdre dievča s rebelskými názormi a bystrým umom. Na rozdiel od iných vtedajších žien sa naučí čítať a písať, študuje Tóru a tajne píše o životoch zabudnutých žien Starého zákona, ktoré veľmi trpeli: o Eve, Sáre, Rebeke, Ráchel a Rút. Keď dovŕši štrnásť rokov, chcú ju vydať za starého vdovca. Pri stretnutí na trhu si Ana zdesene uvedomí, aký život ju čaká po boku tohto muža. Neznámy mladík s tmavými zvlnenými vlasmi a nežnými očami vycíti jej zúfalstvo a pomôže jej. Táto udalosť od základu zmení Anin život a dá mu nové smerovanie.Autorka neuveriteľne citlivo a vierohodne prepožičala hlas žene z úsvitu nášho letopočtu, o ktorej existencii máme len matné predstavy. Jej názory sú v úplnom protiklade s vtedajším chápaním mužskej a ženskej roly. Ana objavuje samu seba v časoch, keď sa ženy nesmeli učiť čítať ani písať. Ide za svojimi túžbami, bojuje ...

How Do You Feel? - Jessi Gold

A poignant and thought-provoking memoir following one psychiatrist and four of her patients as they deal with the unspoken mental and physical costs of caring for others—perfect for fans of Maybe You Should Talk to Someone and The In-Between.For Dr. Jessi Gold, everything was absolutely fine—until it suddenly wasn’t. As an assistant professor, practicing psychiatrist, university wellness leader, regular media expert, and dedicated friend and family member, Jessi was used to being constantly busy. After all, people—her patients, colleagues, and loved ones—needed her, so who was she to say no to any opportunity to help, be that an extra therapy session, corporate wellness talk, or favor for a friend. She was a doctor, trained to serve, to put the needs of others before her own. But when Jessi is so mentally overwhelmed that she commits an unthinkable error during a patient session, she’s forced to reevaluate everything that the medical system has taught her. While reassessing her own complex relationship to the health-care industry, Jessi begins to examine it through the eyes of some of her healthcare worker patients—a thirty-something resident with OCD, a pregnant nurse suffering from PTSD, an aspiring medical student with crippling test anxiety, and an experienced ...

Jesse James and the Lost Templar Treasure - Daniel J. Duke

An investigation into the lost treasures of Jesse James and the Freemasons and their connections to the Templars, Rosicrucians, and the Founding Fathers Jesse James left behind secret diaries and coded treasure maps. Working to decrypt these maps, Daniel J. Duke--the great-great grandson of Jesse James--reveals hidden treasures yet to be recovered as well as connections between the infamous train robber and Freemasonry, the Knights Templar, the Founding Fathers, and Jewish mysticism. The author explains how Jesse James faked his death and lived out his final years under the name James L. Courtney. He uncovers James’ affiliation with the Knights of the Golden Circle, a secret society that buried Confederate gold across the United States, and shows how the hidden treasures coded into James’ maps were not affiliated with the KGC but with the Freemasons, the Knights Templar, and the treasure of the Temple Mount. Using sacred geometry, gematria, and the Kabbalistic Tree of Life symbol, the author explains the encoded map technique used by the Freemasons to hide and later recover treasures, an esoteric template known as the “Veil”. He shows how the Veil template confirms the locations of Jesse James’ recovered treasures in Texas as well as other ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Americké konspirace - Jesse Ventura, Russell Dick

V tomto výbušném výčtu zločinů a následných maskovacích operací, nabízí Jesse Ventura svým čtenářům odlišný pohled na příběhy, které většina z nás buď slyšela nebo o nich četla v učebnicích historie. Obzvláště ho zajímá ten propastný rozdíl mezi tím, co všechno Americký státní sektor má za informace, a tím co je prezentováno běžným lidem. Ale i média jsou v zatajování reálné historie nápomocna, neboť často odmítají pohlížet na věci z odlišných úhlů pohledu, nebo dokonce aktivně umlčují hlasy lidí, kteří nesouhlasí s názorem širší veřejnosti. Jesse se tedy blíže podívá na všechny ty teorie, které byly během uplynulých let prezentovány, pohlédne jak na pravdu tak i na lži. Bývalý guvernér Ventura se pravdy nebojí. Jak sám říká: Když je mi k něčemu odepřen přístup, nenechám se zastrašit, právě naopak - Naštve mne to.Ve své knize Americká spiknutí, se pouští do hledání odpovědí na otázky:- Proč se tvrdí, že J.

The Ghost Ship of Brooklyn - Robert Watson

The most horrific struggle of the American Revolution occurred just 100 yards off New York, where more men died aboard a rotting prison ship than were lost to combat during the entirety of the war. Moored off the coast of Brooklyn until the end of the war, the derelict ship, the HMS Jersey, was a living hell for thousands of Americans either captured by the British or accused of disloyalty. Crammed below deck -- a shocking one thousand at a time -- without light or fresh air, the prisoners were scarcely fed food and water. Disease ran rampant and human waste fouled the air as prisoners suffered mightily at the hands of brutal British and Hessian guards. Throughout the colonies, the mere mention of the ship sparked fear and loathing of British troops. It also sparked a backlash of outrage as newspapers everywhere described the horrors onboard the ghostly ship. This shocking event, much like the better-known Boston Massacre before it, ended up rallying public support for the war. Revealing for the first time hundreds of accounts culled from old newspapers, diaries, and military reports, award-winning historian Robert P. Watson follows the lives and ordeals of the ship''s few survivors ... Unknown localization key: "more"

A Hard Fought Ship - John Rodgaard

Here is the exhaustive and exhilarating story of HMS _Venomous_, one of sixty-seven V&W destroyers built at the end of the Great War that were to play a key role in the struggle to keep the sea lanes open in the Atlantic, Home Waters and the Mediterranean during the following war. Her story was perhaps the most memorable of all her class. When war broke out she was to find herself in the front line as the German blitzkrieg swept across Europe in 1940 and the V&Ws made high speed dashes across the Channel to bring troops and civilians back from Calais, Boulogne and Dunkirk, and prepared for the expected invasion. Later that year she and her sister-ships escorted the Atlantic convoys which supplied our Russian allies with the weapons to halt the German advance. She returned to the Mediterranean and took part in Operation Pedestal to save Malta, and as the allies prepared for the landings in North Africa she was ordered to escort the destroyer depot ship, HMS _Hecla_ to the invasion beaches. When _Hecla_ was torpedoed off the coast off Morocco _Venomous_ fought the attacking U-boat and rescued 500 survivors. She escorted convoys along the coast of ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Titanic: The Ship That Never Sank? - Robin Gardiner

In 1912 the unthinkable happened - the supposedly unsinkable Titanic sank after hitting an iceberg, or so it was thought. In this bestselling book author Robin Gardiner claims that it was not in fact the Titanic but the sister ship, the Olympic, which finished its days sinking in the icy waters of the North Atlantic on that fateful night. His contention is that what happened was an insurance scam perpetrated by the White Star line which may have involved the possible collusion by the British government in the cover-up. On 20 September 1911, the Olympic was involved in a collision with the Royal Navy Warship HMS Hawke in Southampton Water. Olympic was found to be to blame in the collision. Because of this finding, White Star''s insurers allegedly refused to pay out on the claim. As this would amount to a serious financial loss for the company, it is alleged that, to make sure at least one vessel would be earning money, the badly damaged Olympic was patched up and then converted to become the Titanic. The real Titanic when complete would then quietly enter service as the Olympic. To dispose of the Olympic, which had allegedly been damaged beyond ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Ship Models from the Age of Sail - Kerry Jang

Most period ship models are built from kits, usually primarily of wood with some ready-made fittings. Although these commercial offerings have improved significantly in recent years, all of them can be enhanced in accuracy or detail by an experienced model maker. This book, by an expert ship modeler, distills lessons gleaned from a lifetime practicing the hobby to the highest standards, setting out methods of improving basic kits and gradually developing the skills and confidence to tackle the construction of a model from scratch. Using a variety of kits as the starting point, each chapter demonstrates a technique that can be readily improved or a feature that can be replaced to the advantage of the finished model. Topics include hull planking, representing copper sheathing, many aspects of more accurate masting and rigging, and how to replace kit parts and fittings from scratch. The impact of a period model depends on its accuracy, and this book provides guidance on plans and references, including where to find them and how they are best used. The plank-on-frame model, sometimes with exposed frames in the Navy Board style, has always been considered the crowning achievement of period ship modeling, and this book concludes with ...
