Skutečný příběh o zločinu, skandálu a rivalském klání ve středověké FranciiBlíží se konec roku 1386. K převorství Saint-Martin proudí davy, aby sledovaly souboj Jeana de Carrouges a Jacquesa Le Gris. Souboj na život a na smrt. Carrouges hájí čest své paní, která obvinila Le Grise ze znásilnění. Le Gris se snaží prokázat svou nevinu. Je to boj bývalých přátel, z nichž se v průběhu let stali úhlavní nepřátelé soupeřící nejen o rozsáhlé majetky, ale i o přízeň svého pána, hraběte Pierra z Alençonu, a o pozici u dvora krále Karla VI. Podle konečného verdiktu Pařížského parlamentu má o výsledku jejich pře rozhodnout soudní souboj neboli boží soud. Kdo přežije, zvítězí. Jestliže na bojišti padne Le Gris, bude tím potvrzena jeho vina. A pokud prohraje Carrouges, bude jeho manželka Marguerite upálena na hranici jako křivopřísežnice.Autor popolárně naučné knihy Eric Jager vychází z důkladného studia faktů a poutavě popisuje vývoj příběhu o dlouholetém přátelství, sváru, zradě a souboji na pozadí politických pletich, křížových výprav, stoleté války a mnoha dalších dramatických událostí, které ovlivnily vývoj dějin od středověku až po dnešní dobu.

eBook: Píše se rok 1386. Jean de Carrouges a Jacques Le Gris jsou přátelé, ze kterých se stanou soupeři, protože Marguerite, žena Carrougese tvrdí, že ji Jacques Le Gris znásilnil. Spor má rozhodnout souboj na život a na smrt, poslední oficiální duel mezi dvěma muži, který se ve Francii konal. Tato kniha není fikce. Jména, postavy, místa ani zápletku si autor nevymyslel. Poslední souboj popisuje příběh, který se stal. Je založený na původních zdrojích, vyprávění v kronikách, právních záznamech a dalších dokumentech. Všechny osoby, místa, data a další detaily ̶ co lidé řekli a udělali, jejich často rozporuplné výpovědi u soudu a dokonce popis počasí ̶ to vše je skutečné. Vzniká tak působivý obraz lásky, hrdosti a rivality, který nám připomíná, že lidská povaha se v průběhu časů příliš nezměnila a že realita může být poutavější než fikce.

A race against time ensues because, when revealed, that information threatens to tear apart the corridors of power at the very highest level.The case proves to be life-changing for both Mars and Decker in ways that neither could ever have imagined

Rozsáhlá románová freska z valašského prostředí Duely vypráví osudy několika generací kopaničářů, jejichž paměť vlastně vytváří zázemí současnosti. Postižení návazností i proměny v myšlení dědů, otců a synů směřuje k hlavní myšlence díla, jíž je kategorický zákon lidskosti a mravnosti, individuální a společenské odpovědnosti.Reálný současný i historický děj se nezřídka prolíná s mytickou folklórní obrazotvorností a s kresbou jedinečné horské přírody moravsko-slovenského pomezí. Vše ve formě krátkých, mnohdy kontrastně přerývaných střihů, jejichž motivy se někdy prolínají, jindy vracejí či zas ironicky vyvracejí, aby nakonec vytvořily harmonickou skladbu, stylově i kompozičně promyšlenou a ucelenou.První duel a Druhý duel jsou však nejen osobitou výpovědí – předkládají vnímavému čtenáři hned celou řadu vtíravých otázek týkajících se vnitřního citového bohatství člověka i stanovení žebříčku hodnoty toho, co je v životě skutečně důležité.

V noci z 5. na 6. dubna 1945 se na ostrově Texel u nizozemských břehů vzbouřili Gruzínci, kteří sloužili ve wehrmachtu. Noži a bodáky tehdy zmasakrovali 400 německých vojáků ze stejné jednotky. Rozzuřený Hitler přikázal ostrov získat zpět. Výsledkem byly několik týdnů trvající nemilosrdné boje, které vešly do dějin jako poslední evropská bitva druhé světové války. Zkušený britský historik a novinář Eric Lee představuje vůbec první podrobný popis tehdejších událostí a objevně mapuje celý průběh vzpoury.

Now a major motion picture, directed by five-time Oscar-nominee Richard Linklater and starring Oscar nominees Bryan Cranston, Steve Carell, and Laurence Fishburne. When middle-aged veteran Meadows learns that the authorities have told him a lie about the circumstances of the death of his son, a Marine killed in Iraq, he reunites with aging companions Billy Bad-Ass Buddusky and Mule Mulhall to perform a sacred task: the proper burial of his boy. So begins the journey up the Eastern seaboard, both a solemn mission and a protest against injustice, a celebration of life that is at once irreverent, funny, profane and deeply moving. Darryl Ponicsán's debut novel The Last Detail was named one of the best of the year and widely acclaimed, catapulting him to fame when it was first published and made into an award-winning movie starring Jack Nicholson. Last Flag Flying, set thirty-four years after the events of The Last Detail, brings together the same beloved characters for a striking meditation on the passage of time and the nature of truth.

The adidas story is one of groundbreaking designs, epic moments, and conceiving the all-around sports shoe, worn by the likes of Lionel Messi, Run DMC, and Madonna. A mecca for sneaker fans, this book presents adidas’s history through almost 200 pairs of shoes, including one-of-a-kind originals, vintage models, and designer pieces. The history of the adidas shoe, from its earliest beginnings until today More than 100 years ago the brothers Adolf ("Adi") and Rudolf Dassler made their first pair of sports shoes. Hundreds of groundbreaking designs, epic moments, and star-studded collabs later, this book presents a visual review of the adidas shoe through almost 200 models.To further develop and tailor his products to athletes’ specific needs, Dassler asked them to return their worn footwear when no longer needed, with all the shoes eventually ending up in his attic (to this day, many athletes return their shoes to adidas, often as a thank you after winning a title or breaking a world record). This collection now makes up the "adidas archive", one of the largest, if not the largest archive of any sports goods manufacturer in the world—which photographers Christian Habermeier and Sebastian Jäger have been visually documenting in extreme detail for years.Shot using the highest reproduction techniques, these images reveal the fine details as much as the stains, the tears, the repair tape, the grass smudges, the faded autographs. It’s all here, unmanipulated and captured in extremely high resolution—and with it comes to light the personal stories of each individual wearer. We encounter the shoes worn by West Germany’s football team during its “miraculous” 1954 World Cup win and those worn by Kathrine Switzer when she ran the Boston Marathon in 1967, before women were officially allowed to compete; custom models for stars from Madonna to Lionel Messi; collabs with the likes of Pharrell Williams, Raf Simons, Stella McCartneyor Yohji Yamamoto; as well as the brand’s trailblazing techniques and materials.Accompanied by expert texts, each picture tells us the why and the how, but also conveys the driving force behind adidas. What we discover goes beyond mere design; in the end, these are just shoes, worn out by their users who have loved them—but they are also first-hand witnesses of our sports, design, and culture history, from the beginnings of the Dassler brothers and the founding of adidas until today.

The Discworld is very much like our own – if our own were to consist of a flat planet balanced on the back of four elephants which stand on the back of a giant turtle, that is . . .

Emma brushes it off, until disturbing incidents start to occur. Scratches in the night. A figure crawling around in the shadows.

The phenomenal international bestseller - with over 8 million copies sold. When Randy Pausch, a computer science professor at Carnegie Mellon, was asked to give 'a last lecture' lecture, he didn't have to imagine it as his last, since he had recently been diagnosed with terminal pancreatic cancer. But the lecture he gave, 'Really Achieving Your Childhood Dreams', wasn't about dying. It was about the importance of overcoming obstacles, of enabling the dreams of others, of seizing every moment (because time is all you have and you may find one day that you have less than you think). It was a summation of everything Randy had come to believe. It was about living. A lot of professors give talks titled 'The Last Lecture'. Professors are asked to consider their demise and to ruminate on what matters most to them: What wisdom would we impart to the world if we knew it was our last chance? If we had to vanish tomorrow, what would we want as our legacy? In this book, Randy Pausch has combined the humour, inspiration, and intelligence that made his lecture such a phenomenon and given it an indelible form. It is a book that will be shared for generations to come.
