The indomitable Jean Bolen gives meaning and purpose to women's lives through the retelling of important archetypal myths and her bestselling classic Goddesses in Everywoman has been widely read and soundly praised by women everywhere - from fictional characters like Bridget Jones to feminist icons like Gloria Steinem. Now comes a new book written in the same spirit and with the same vitality. In ARTEMIS Bolen delves deeply into the myth of Atalanta, the famous hunter and runner in ancient Greek mythology, a mortal woman who identified with Artemis, the Greek Goddess of the Hunt and Moon. Atalanta began life abandoned and left to die because she was born a girl. She faced the Calydon Boar and drew first blood; she was the runner who would demand to be beaten in a footrace by the man who could claim her as his bride. She exemplifies the indomitable spirit in competent, courageous girls and in the women they become - the one who refuses to give up on what she knows to be true for herself. This is grit, the passion and persistence to go the distance, to survive and to succeed. Bolen explores female psychology at every stage of a woman's life beginning in girlhood and offers insights for women to become more authentically themselves. Atalanta and Artemis are the means through which readers can navigate their own personal exploration. Retold in Marlo Thomas' bestselling Free to Be You and Me written more than forty years ago, Bolen's further exploration of the Artemis archetype will resonate with her readers and with fans of Joseph Campbell, Clarissa Pinkola Estes, James Hillman, among others. Plus Bolen's use of many real-life stories as well as mythological and fictional examples of young women who are similar to Atalanta including Princess Merida from the animated film Brave and Katniss from The Hunger Games which draw a new generation of readers.…

Hardback. Zustand: Good. Valor is the magnificent story of a genuine American hero who survived the fall of the Philippines and brutal captivity under the Japanese, from New York Times bestselling author Dan Hampton. Lieutenant William Frederick "Bill" Harris was 25 years old when captured by Japanese forces during the Battle of Corregidor in May 1942. This son of a decorated Marine general escaped from hell on earth by swimming eight hours through a shark-infested bay; but his harrowing ordeal had just begun. Shipwrecked on the southern coast of the Philippines, he was sheltered by a Filipino aristocrat, engaged in guerilla fighting, and eventually set off through hostile waters to China. After 29 days of misadventures and violent storms, Harris and his crew limped into a friendly fishing village in the southern Philippines. Evading and fighting for months, he embarked on another agonizing voyage to Australia, but was betrayed by treacherous islanders and handed over to the Japanese. Held for two years in the notorious Ofuna prisoner-of-war camp outside Yokohama, Harris was continuously starved, tortured, and beaten, but he never surrendered. Teaching himself Japanese, he eavesdropped on the guards and created secret codes to communicate with fellow prisoners. After liberation on August 30, 1945, Bill represented American Marine POWs during the Japanese surrender in Tokyo Bay before joining his father and flying to a home he had not seen in four years. Valor is a riveting new look at the Pacific War. Through military documents, personal photos, and an unpublished memoir provided by his daughter, Harris' experiences are dramatically revealed through his own words in the expert hands of bestselling author and retired fighter pilot Dan Hampton. This is the stunning and captivating true story of an American hero.…
