Synopsis Pride of Carthage by : David Anthony Durham
This epic retelling of the legendary Carthaginian military leader’s assault on the Roman empire begins in Ancient Spain, where Hannibal Barca sets out with tens of thousands of soldiers and 30 elephants. After conquering the Roman city of Saguntum, Hannibal wages his campaign through the outposts of the empire, shrewdly befriending peoples disillusioned by Rome and, with dazzling tactics, outwitting the opponents who believe the land route he has chosen is impossible. Yet Hannibal’s armies must take brutal losses as they pass through the Pyrenees mountains, forge the Rhone river, and make a winter crossing of the Alps before descending to the great tests at Cannae and Rome itself. David Anthony Durham draws a brilliant and complex Hannibal out of the scant historical record–sharp, sure-footed, as nimble among rivals as on the battlefield, yet one who misses his family and longs to see his son grow to manhood. Whether portraying the deliberations of a general or the calculations of a common soldier, vast multilayered scenes of battle or moments of introspection when loss seems imminent, Durham brings history alive.

Synopsis Red by : Jacky Colliss Harvey
Red is a brilliantly told, captivating history of red hair throughout the ages. A book that breaks new ground, dispels myths, and reinforces the special nature of being a redhead, with a look at multiple disciplines, including science, religion, politics, feminism and sexuality, literature, and art. With an obsessive fascination that is as contagious as it is compelling, author Jacky Colliss Harvey (herself a redhead) begins her exploration of red hair in prehistory and traces the redhead gene as it made its way out of Africa with the early human diaspora to its emergence under Northern skies. She goes on to explore red hair in the ancient world; the prejudice manifested against red hair across medieval Europe; red hair during the Renaissance as both an indicator of Jewishness during the Inquisition and the height of fashion in Protestant England, under the reign of Henry VIII and Elizabeth I; the modern age of art and literature, and the first positive symbols of red hair in children's characters; modern medicine and science and the genetic and chemical decoding of red hair; and finally, red hair in contemporary culture, from advertising and exploitation to "gingerism" and the new movement against bullying.

Synopsis The Stanolis by : Dr. Vincent M. M. Galici Sr.
Many families are comprised of the good and the bad, the cherished and the reprehensible, some change, others never intend to. This is the generational saga of the ups and downs of one such Mafia family, the Stanolis. The Stanolis, the third of four novellas in the series, follows the saga of the Stanoli family who originated from Mezzogiorno and Sicily and moved to America in the first decade of the twentieth-century. Involved in organized crime, they are steeled in learning from the past, and they often find better tomorrows. Filled with tales of crime and murder, as well as love, this story begins in 1932. The Stanolis, by author Dr. Vincent M.M. Galici Sr., deals with the main characters in greater depth in a complex storyline. Incidents and characters, both familiar and new, are reintroduced and advanced. The suspense rages on, and the scenic, historic, psychological, spiritual, and social crescendo continues to build.

Synopsis The Pride and the Fall by : Anthony Parsons
From March 1974 to the end of January 1974, a few days after the Shah and his family flew into exile in Egypt, Sir Anthony Parsons served as British Ambassador to Iran. He witnesses the demise of Pahlavian power from inside the Niavaran Palace (where he was on close terms with the Shah), from his Embassy and from turbulent Tehran streets. This book is the candid, scrupulous accounting of each stage of that decline: of what Parsons reported to Whitehall, of what he said to the Shah and what he personally thought and felt.
