#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The author of The Splendid and the Vile brings to life the pivotal five months between the election of Abraham Lincoln and the start of the Civil War in this ''riveting reexamination of a nation in tumult'' (Los Angeles Times).On November 6, 1860, Abraham Lincoln became the fluky victor in a tight race for president. The country was bitterly at odds; Southern extremists were moving ever closer to destroying the Union, with one state after another seceding and Lincoln powerless to stop them. Slavery fuelled the conflict, but somehow the passions of North and South came to focus on a lonely federal fortress in Charleston Harbor: Fort Sumter.Master storyteller Erik Larson offers a gripping account of the chaotic months between Lincoln’s election and the Confederacy’s shelling of Sumter – a period marked by tragic errors and miscommunications, enflamed egos and craven ambitions, personal tragedies and betrayals. Lincoln himself wrote that the trials of these five months were ‘so great that, could I have anticipated them, I would not have believed it possible to survive them’.At the heart of this suspense-filled narrative are Major Robert Anderson, Sumter’s commander and a former slave owner sympathetic to the ...

William E. Dodd, a mild-mannered academic from Chicago, has to his own and everyone else''s surprise, become America''s first ambassador to Hitler''s Germany, in a year that proves to be a turning point in history. Dodd and his family, notably his vivacious daughter, Martha, observe at first-hand the many changes - some subtle, some disturbing, and some horrifically violent - that signal Hitler''s consolidation of power. Dodd has little choice but to associate with key figures in the Nazi party, his increasingly concerned cables make little impact on an indifferent U.S. State Department, while Martha is drawn to the Nazis and their vision of a ''New Germany'' and has a succession of affairs with senior party players, including first chief of the Gestapo, Rudolf Diels.

Ďábel v Bílém městě, kritiky oceňovaný bestseler, je beletrizovaná literatura faktu o skutečném příběhu masového vraha H. H. Holmese, amerického Jacka Rozparovače, který roku 1893 v Chicagu za Světové kolumbovské výstavy zavraždil desítky, možná až stovky žen ve svém speciálně zkonstruovaném domě, obrovském bludišti plném mučíren, propadlišť, piteven a slepých uliček. Vrah, který měl ve svém doupěti dokonce i plynovou komoru, byl nakonec usvědčen a poslán na šibenici. V zamýšleném filmu o tomto případu by měl hlavní roli hrát Leonardo DiCaprio, jenž zakoupil na knihu filmová práva, a režii přislíbil Martin Scorsese. Erik Larson (1954) je americký žurnalista a spisovatel literatury faktu. Přispívá do prestižních listů a časopisů, jako jsou Time Magazine, New York Times nebo The Wall Street Journal. Ďábel v bílém městě (2003) je jeho nejúspěšnější knihou. Mimo jiných ocenění za ni obdržel cenu Edgar za výjimečné dílo kriminálního žánru. Sám o sobě říká, že je nejen spisovatel, ale i badatel; veškeré rešerše a výzkumy historie si dělá sám a dává si záležet na tom, aby se jeho práce vždy co nejvíce držely historických poznatků.

I really love the way Erik Henry Vick writes. He has a gift for weaving pictures with words and making sure the reader is right there in the story with his characters. ...

The experience of loneliness is as universal as hunger or thirst. Because it affects us more intimately, we are less inclined to speak of it. But who has not known its gnawing ache?The fear of loneliness causes anguish. It prompts reckless deeds. To this, every age has borne witness. No voice is more insidious than the one that whispers in our ear: ‘You are irredeemably alone, no light will pierce your darkness.’ The fundamental statement of Christianity is to convict that voice of lying. The Christian condition unfolds within the certainty that ultimate reality, the source of all that is, is a personal reality of communion, no metaphysical abstraction. Men and women, made ‘in the image and likeness’ of God, bear the mark of that original communion stamped on their being. When our souls and bodies cry out for Another, it is not a sign of sickness, but of health.A labour of potential joy is announced. We are reminded of what we have it in us to become. That our labour may be fruitful, Scripture repeatedly exhorts us to ‘remember’. The remembrance enjoined is partly introspective and existential, partly historical, for the God who took flesh to redeem our loneliness ... Unknown localization key: "more"
