Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - Life passes by in just a few decades, and there is always so much one wants to say quietly to someone.Reflections on Life collects thirty short essays by May Yuan (????), ranging from friendship, marriage, and family, to old age, life and death, and faith; from money, success, and failure, to reading, music, flowers and trees, and solitude. Each essay reads like a late-night conversation with an old friend, carrying none of the weight of a lecture. It is simply a lifelong writer who moved from Taiwan to the United States and lived through many years, weaving what she learned from life in both places into her most sincere understanding of human nature.The author draws widely on other sources, at times quoting the ancient teachings of the Analects and the Four Books, at other times drawing on the wisdom of Western sages. Eastern and Western philosophies of life blend naturally in her writing, yet nothing reads as difficult or obscure, because every insight comes from her own lived experience.No matter what stage of life you are in, opening this book feels like sitting down with an elder, listening to her muse on life, and seeing a reflection of your own heart along the way. This English edition is a translation of the original Traditional Chinese book, ????, part of the Reflections on Life: Bilingual Editions series.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - The first 'accidental president,' whose secret maneuverings brought Texas into the Union and set secession in motion.When William Henry Harrison died in April 1841, just one month after his inauguration, Vice President John Tyler assumed the presidency. It was a controversial move by this Southern gentleman, who had been placed on the fractious Whig ticket with the hero of Tippecanoe in order to sweep Andrew Jackson's Democrats, and their imperial tendencies, out of the White House.Soon Tyler was beset by the Whigs' competing factions. He vetoed the charter for a new Bank of the United States, which he deemed unconstitutional, and was expelled from his own party. In foreign policy, as well, Tyler marched to his own drummer. He engaged secret agents to help resolve a border dispute with Britain and negotiated the annexation of Texas without the Senate's approval. The resulting sectional divisions roiled the country.Gary May, a historian known for his dramatic accounts of secret government, sheds new light on Tyler's controversial presidency, which saw him set aside his dedication to the Constitution to gain his two great ambitions: Texas and a place in history.…
