Paperback. Zustand: Good. Frazier, Victoria Ponikvar (illustrator).

Paperback. Zustand: Good. With the same quirky brilliance that drew fans to his previous work, Ian Frazier narrates the history of his family from early colonial days to the present. He reconstructs two hundred years of middle-class life, visiting small towns his ancestors lived in, reading the books they read, discovering the larger forces of history that affected them. He observes family members during the Revolutionary War; he follows others west as they pioneer in the wilderness of Ohio and Indiana, where schoolteachers were paid in whiskey and door hinges were made of bacon ride. He visits the battlefields where they fought the Civil War. He interviews old-timers, uncles, aunts, cousins, maids, a beer-store owner who knew his dad. Family is a poetic epic of facts, a chronicle of a culture's rise and fall, a memorial, a view of American history as romantic as it is unflinching.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Melvin Robinson wants a strong, smooth, He-Man voice that lets him say what he wants, when he wants?especially to his crush Millie Takazawa, and Gary Ratliff, who constantly puts him down. But the thought of starting high school is only making his stutter worse. And Melvin's growing awareness that racism is everywhere?not just in the South where a boy his age has been brutally killed by two white men, but also in his own hometown of Spokane?is making him realize that he can't mutely stand by.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Could it be that Esther is more than the story of an orphan who became queen to save her people?I believe God intended Esther's life to represent the transformation that He desires for all of His daughters. Because of the fall and subsequent removal from the garden, we were embedded with a sense of not belonging. Even if we had perfect parents, we can be driven by an orphan spirit that longs to be accepted and causes us to miss our true identity, believing we are unworthy to be chosen. This same spirit will cause us to live masked, (veiled) fearing that our authentic self, if exposed, would not be enough, which ultimately leads to further rejection and striving, or performing, to succeed and be seen. It sabotages the influence of our voices, causing us to shrink back rather than step up. I believe God is calling out women today to walk in an Esther Anointing: These women will walk in divine favor, shifting atmospheres in their homes, communities, and even nations. They will be wrapped in an infectious love of the Father. 'Fiercely loved' will be their new identity. They will have voices of influence and authority, and begin reclaiming territory for the Kingdom. They will carry a boldness by the empowering of the Holy Spirit that will cause others to rise with them. To release her, we must tend to the--the wounded soul--that keeps us focused on our pain and trauma instead of stepping into the royal position before us.…

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Women have been told for centuries by others who God says they are and the roles they should play in our society. This is a journey outside your Sunday school, one size fits all teaching. This is a journey into the things we have been told are not acceptable to share. This is a journey into the life of a woman who broke societies molds, statistics, and views. This is your journey into what God says about the woman He created. This is your journey into finding H.E.R. I was born and raised in Florida and currently reside there with my family. Writing has been a passion of mine since my elementary school years. As women we get caught up in the society and even the churches view of who we are supposed to look like and be. I wanted a way to tell women that God made them for so much more than appeasing these views and standards. …

Paperback. Zustand: Good. On the Rez is a sharp, unflinching account of the modern-day American Indian experience, especially that of the Oglala Sioux, who now live on the Pine Ridge Indian Reservation in the plains and badlands of the American West. Crazy Horse, perhaps the greatest Indian war leader of the 1800s, and Black Elk, the holy man whose teachings achieved worldwide renown, were Oglala; in these typically perceptive pages, Frazier seeks out their descendants on Pine Ridge--a/k/a "the rez"--which is one of the poorest places in America today. Along with his longtime friend Le War Lance (whom he first wrote about in his 1989 bestseller, Great Plains) and other Oglala companions, Frazier fully explores the rez as they visit friends and relatives, go to pow-wows and rodeos and package stores, and tinker with a variety of falling-apart cars. He takes us inside the world of the Sioux as few writers ever have, writing with much wit, compassion, and imagination. In the career of SuAnne Big Crow, for example, the most admired Oglala basketball player of all time, who died in a car accident in 1992, Frazier finds a contemporary reemergence of the death-defying, public-spirited Sioux hero who fights with grace and glory to save her followers. On the Rez vividly portrays the survival, through toughness and humor, of a great people whose culture has helped to shape the American identity.…

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Sooner or later, history asks, which side were you on? In his powerful new novel, Charles Frazier returns to the time and place of Cold Mountain, vividly bringing to life the chaos and devastation of the Civil War Her marriage prospects limited, teenage Varina Howell agrees to wed the much-older widower Jefferson Davis, with whom she expects the secure life of a Mississippi landowner. Davis instead pursues a career in politics and is eventually appointed president of the Confederacy, placing Varina at the white-hot center of one of the darkest moments in American history-culpable regardless of her intentions. The Confederacy falling, her marriage in tatters, and the country divided, Varina and her children escape Richmond, Virginia, and travel south on their own, now fugitives with "bounties on their heads, an entire nation in pursuit." Intimate in its detailed observations of one woman's tragic life, and epic in its scope and power, Varina is a novel of an American war and its aftermath. Ultimately, the book is a portrait of a woman who comes to realize that complicity carries consequences. &nbsp.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER  The only research-based sports nutrition guide for connecting a plant-based diet with peak athletic performance, featuring interviews with professional athletes who've made the switch from meat to plants. The Plant-Based Athlete by Matt Frazier and Robert Cheeke reveals the incontrovertible proof that the human body does not need meat, eggs, or dairy to be strong. Instead, research shows that a consciously calibrated plant-based diet offers the greatest possible athletic recovery times, cell oxidation, injury prevention, and restorative sleep, and allows athletes to train more effectively, with better results. However, committing to a plant-based diet as an elite athlete, first-time marathoner, or weekend warrior isn't as simple as swapping vegetables for meat. Even the slightest food adjustments can impact performance. That's why Matt Frazier, founder of No Meat Athlete, and Robert Cheeke, founder of Vegan Bodybuilding and Fitness, wrote this groundbreaking book to guide those interested in making this important shift in how to do so with the best, most transformative results. The Plant-Based Athlete offers readers: A persuasive body of evidence for adopting a plant-based lifestyle, with key information about how macronutrients, micronutrients, and calories fuel a body running on plant foods An entire chapter devoted to protein - why plant sources of protein are preferable over meat, and how plant protein can be used to increase strength, muscle mass, and power 60+ delicious and nutritious plant-based recipes, including Veggie Burger Patties, Garden Meatballs, Summer Pasta Salad, Vegan Mac & Cheese, French Toast, Acai Bowl, and a High-Energy Smoothie Insights from winning plant-based athletes in nearly every sport including champion ultrarunners Rich Roll and Scott Jurek; former NFL player David Carter; champion boxers Yuri Foreman, Unsal Arik, Cam Awesome, and Vanessa Espinoza; and Olympic-level swimmers, cyclists, figure skaters, sprinters, and more.
