An “exciting” account of the feud between monarchs, clergy, and explorers that split the globe between Spain and Portugal and made the oceans a battleground ( Kirkus Reviews ). When Columbus triumphantly returned to Spain in 1493, his discoveries inflamed an already-smoldering conflict between Spain’s monarchs, Ferdinand and Isabella, and Portugal’s João II. Which nation was to control the world’s oceans? To quell the argument, Pope Alexander VI—the notorious Rodrigo Borgia—issued a proclamation laying the foundation for the Treaty of Tordesillas of 1494, an edict that created an imaginary line in the Atlantic Ocean dividing the entire known (and unknown) world between Spain and Portugal. Just as the world’s oceans were about to be opened by Columbus’s epochal voyage, the treaty sought to limit the seas to these two favored Catholic nations. The edict had a profound influence on world history: it propelled Spain and Portugal to superpower status, steered other European nations on a collision course, and became the central grievance in two centuries of international espionage, piracy, and warfare. It also began the fight for “the freedom of the seas”—the epic struggle to determine whether the oceans, and thus global commerce, would be controlled by an autocrat’s decree or open to the ships of any nation—a distinctly modern notion championed in the early seventeenth century by Dutch legal theorist Hugo Grotius, whose arguments became the foundation of international law. At the heart of one of the greatest international diplomatic and political agreements of the last five centuries were the strained relationships and passions of a handful of powerful individuals. They were linked by a shared history, mutual animosity, and personal obligations—quarrels, rivalries, and hatreds that dated back decades. Yet the struggle ultimately stemmed from a young woman’s determination to defy tradition and the king, and to choose her own husband. “Incorporates a sprawling cast of characters, including Ferdinand and Isabella, Columbus, Magellan, Sir Francis Drake, and members of the ostentatious Borgia clan, into what is both a judicious synthesis of the surrounding scholarship and an entertaining look at the evolution of international law on the high seas.” — Booklist “A starry love story, a tale of seething jealousies and subterfuge, a political imbroglio, and religious cruelties. It sounds like Shakespeare and it could have very well been the plot of one of his plays.” — Toronto Star “An entertaining and elegantly written voyage into the treacherous seas of religious fanatics, greedy slavers, depraved autocrats, doomed indigenous peoples and desperately brave adventurers in search of fortune.” — Globe & Mail

A Killing in the Hills (Bell Elkins Series #1)
By: Julia Keller

https://40h5pt.hvezdneduse.cz/1tRDZJ?keyword=A+Killing+in+the+Hills+(Bell+Elkins+Series+%231)

ISBN-13: 9781250018069
In A Killing in the Hills , a powerful, intricate debut from Pulitzer Prize-winning journalist Julia Keller, a mother and a daughter try to do right by a town and each other before it's too late. What's happening in Acker's Gap, West Virginia? Three elderly men are gunned down over their coffee at a local diner, and seemingly half the town is there to witness the act. Still, it happened so fast, and no one seems to have gotten a good look at the shooter. Was it random? Was it connected to the spate of drug violence plaguing poor areas of the country just like Acker's Gap? Or were Dean Streeter, Shorty McClurg, and Lee Rader targeted somehow? One of the witnesses to the brutal incident was Carla Elkins, teenaged daughter of Bell Elkins, the prosecuting attorney for Raythune County, WV. Carla was shocked and horrified by what she saw, but after a few days, she begins to recover enough to believe that she might be uniquely placed to help her mother do her job. After all, what better way to repair their fragile, damaged relationship? But could Carla also end up doing more harm than good—in fact, putting her own life in danger? *BONUS CONTENT: This edition of A Killing in the Hills includes a new introduction from the author and a discussion guide

ISBN-13: 9781728245102
From the bestselling author of BOYFRIEND MATERIAL and HUSBAND MATERIAL comes a "delightfully fun" spinoff about two opposites willfully determined never to attract. "Brilliance on every single page."— CHRISTINA LAUREN , New York Times and USA Today bestselling author, for Boyfriend Material FAKE AMNESIA. REAL FEELINGS? REAL PROBLEMS. Sam Becker loves—or, okay, likes—his job. Sure, managing a bed and bath retailer isn't exactly glamorous, but it's good work and he gets on well with the band of misfits who keep the store running. He could see himself being content here for the long haul. Too bad, then, that the owner is an infuriating git. Jonathan Forest should never have hired Sam. It was a sentimental decision, and Jonathan didn't get where he is by following his heart. Determined to set things right, Jonathan orders Sam down to London for a difficult talk…only for a panicking Sam to trip, bump his head, and maybe accidentally imply he doesn't remember anything? Faking amnesia seemed like a good idea when Sam was afraid he was getting sacked, but now he has to deal with the reality of Jonathan's guilt—as well as the unsettling fact that his surly boss might have a softer side to him. There's an unexpected freedom in getting a second shot at a first impression…but as Sam and Jonathan grow closer, can Sam really bring himself to tell the truth, or will their future be built entirely on one impulsive lie? "The apotheosis of the rom-com." —Entertainment Weekly, A+ Review, for Boyfriend Material "Delicious, ridiculous, and often poignant." —Talia Hibbert, New York Times and USA Today bestselling author, for Husband Material "Every once in a while you read a book that you want to SCREAM FROM ROOFTOPS about. I'm screaming, people!" —Sonali Dev, award-winning author, for Boyfriend Material

A Hoosier to die for? When vintage cookware and cookbook collector Jaymie Leighton spies an original 1920s Hoosier brand kitchen cabinet at an estate auction, it’s love at first sight. Despite the protests of her sister that the 19th-century yellow-brick house they share in Michigan is already too cluttered with Jaymie’s “junk,” she successfully outbids the other buyers and triumphantly takes home her Hoosier. But that night on the summer porch where they’ve left the Hoosier to be cleaned up, a man is murdered, struck on the head with  the steel meat grinder that is part of the cabinet. Who is this stranger—and what was he doing on their porch? Does his death have anything to do with the Hoosier? As the police struggle to determine the man’s identity, Jaymie can’t help doing a little digging on her own, accompanied by her three-legged Yorkie Poo, Hopalong. But in her bid to uncover the truth about the hidden secrets of the Hoosier, Jaymie may be the one who ends up going, going…gone.

https://v1iw.stavoweb.cz/1tRDZJ?keyword=A+Grandmother+Begins+the+Story%3a+A+Novel

ISBN-13: 9781643755182
From award-winning Métis author Michelle Porter, a powerfully funning and moving story told not just by five generations of Métis women, but also by the land, the bison that surround them, and two utterly captivating dogs. Carter is a young mother on a quest to find the true meaning of her heritage, which she only learned of in her teens. Allie is trying to make up for the lost years with her first born and to protect Carter from the hurt she herself suffered from her own mother. Lucie wants the granddaughter she's never met to help her get to her ancestors in the afterlife. And Geneviève is determined to conquer her demons—before the fire inside burns her up—with the help of the sister she lost but has never been without. Meanwhile, Mamé, in the afterlife, knows that all their stories began with her; she must find a way to cut herself from the last threads that keep her tethered to the living, just as they must find their own paths forward. And a young bison wants to understand why he keeps being moved and whether he should make a break for it and run for his life. This extraordinary novel, told by a chorus of vividly realized, wise, confused, struggling characters attempting to make sense of this life and the next, heralds the arrival of a stunning new voice in literary fiction.

15 Ways to Live Longer and Healthier: Life-Changing Strategies for Greater Energy, a More Focused Mind, and a Calmer Soul (Signed Book)
By: Joel Osteen

ISBN-13: 9781546006770
Learn a new way of thinking and living to help every new day become a new opportunity to grow in health and vitality. Understanding the importance of maintaining a balanced life is absolutely crucial for us. We must learn how to identify when it’s time to rest, spend some time alone with God, enjoy time with our family, or even say “no” to a busy schedule. Taking care of ourselves isn't selfish—it's what ultimately allows us to fulfill our God-given destinies.   As we move through life, people and activities make greater and greater withdrawals on our time, our energy, and our mental and physical availability. It is easy for us to allow ourselves to run dry, to fail to make deposits back into our own well and take care of our bodies and our minds and our spirits so that we can continue to live and serve with joy, strength, and compassion.    In this practical and unique book from “encourager-in-chief” Joel Osteen, we learn about 15 inspiring ways to help us to improve both the quality and the quantity of our years on earth. Through references to lived wisdom and to the wisdom imparted to us through God’s Word, this practical guide inspires us with a purposeful plan for caring for our minds and bodies each day, allowing our spirits to recharge and our quality of life to improve rather than decline as our lives progress.   Living a healthy and full life is a necessity, not a luxury. We shouldn't be so busy that we don't have time to be alone, time to laugh, time to do the things that give strength to our minds and bodies and that feed our souls. In keeping our own well replenished, we create the greatest opportunity to live at our healthiest and most vital and to fulfill the purpose that has been set before us.
