Lee: A Giant Among LeadersRobert E. Lee was a gentleman. Although
he lived during a time filled with conflict and turmoil, in the
eyes of his countrymen he emerged form the Civil War with untainted
integrity and the respect of all. Despite being perceived as one of
the greatest military leaders of all time, he managed to maintain a
most humble spirit. In this engaging new biographical study of Lee,
J. Stephen Wilkins examines the sterling character of this
undeniably noble man. Charles Bracelet Flood has said that the
essence of Robert E. Lee "was to be found not in what he said, but
in what he did. There were dimensions to Lee, but his life was one
long response to whatever struck him as being the call of duty." He
was bound by duty to care for his mother, duty as a son, a student,
a soldier, a husband and father, a general, and duty as a mentor of
students at both West Point and Washington College. Duty called him
at every point of his life. In this captivating looking at his
leadership in action, we see why and how Lee answered again and
again the calls of duty he could not ignore. Indeed, Robert E. Lee
was a leader of leaders.
Bless This Food is a unique cookbook that combines wonderful menus

cultural traditions. The menus are for a wide variety of
occasions—traditional national holidays, family gatherings,
religious celebrations, ethnic festivals, life passages, and
get-togethers with friends. Organized by seasons, Bless This Food
is eclectic in its choice of cuisines—from French, Italian,
English, American, Jewish, and Irish to Native American, African
American, and Hispanic. The occasions celebrated are also eclectic
and culturally diverse, celebrating the many traditions from which
America’s citizens have originated. The main religious
celebrations of the Christian and Jewish traditions are included.
The authors’ own interests are reflected in their choices of such
occasions as Sir Winston Churchill’s Birthday Breakfast, Claude
Monet’s Birthday, A Jane Austen Holiday Lunch with Friends,
Robert Burns Night, and Blessings in Deed, in which a meal is
prepared for another person or family. Beautifully and elegantly
designed, and illustrated with sketches by Tonya Young, Bless This

Wealth & Wisdom is for sensible people interested in wealth,
appreciative of good quotations, and seeking clear commentary and
advice. There are no graphs, formulas, higher mathematics, or
shortcuts; just common sense, for that is all you really need to
wisely invest.
"There has not been a concise, effective and well thought out book
on investing and building wealth in quite some time. Wealth &
Wisdom is that book. In a well-managed and unique structure, the
reader not only receives a complete history of the time-tested,
emotional platforms the market demands for success on the topic but
at the same time, a process to de-mystify the art and science of
investing." -Michael W. Williams, Genesis Asset Management
"Much more than a handy cheat sheet for the board room or the
coffee table, these timeless maxims woven together will keep you
healthy, wealthy... and witty." -Francois Picard, anchor, France24.
"Long before Twitter capped the maximum length of a tweet at 140
characters, wise people with pens and styluses were jotting down
adages. 'Buy low, sell high, ' one of their number said. The
unnamed author of this aphorism did more than proffer the best and
simplest item of investment advice ever recorded. He or she also
wrote an 18-character guide for living. Between these covers is
collected some of the best and wittiest of the world's short-form
financial wisdom. The ancients and the moderns take turns advising
us when to buy, when to sell (if at all) and how to think." -from
the Foreword by James Grant, author of "Money of the Mind" and "Mr.
Market Miscalculates" and editor of "Grant's Interest Rate
Observer."
