Surprisingly little known, the Polish-Soviet War of 1919-20 was to change the course of twentieth-century history. In White Eagle, Red Star, Norman Davies gives a full account of the War, with its dramatic climax in August 1920 when the Red Army - sure of victory and pledged to carry the Revolution across Europe to 'water our horses on the Rhine' - was crushed by a devastating Polish attack. Since known as the 'miracle on the Vistula', it remains one of the most decisive battles of the Western world. Drawing on both Polish and Russian sources, Norman Davies illustrates the narrative with documentary material which hitherto has not been readily available and shows how the War was far more an 'episode' in East European affairs, but largely determined the course of European history for the next twenty years or more.

If you are seeking to more fully engage your heart and soul with a new romantic partner or in your current love relationship, this is the book for you. In this practical guide and spiritual memoir, Robin White Star reveals the intricacies and richness of the shamanic calling ceremony: the power of gratitude that fuels the miraculous calling for your soul companion; making heart requests that are specific without being limiting; sifting through and releasing dozens of beliefs that have obscured your inner truths; reawakening your innate ability to stand in your truth with wholehearted kindness to yourself and your loved ones; and opening your heart to the infinite possibilities of mutual trust, intimacy, love and joy in relationship. The calling ceremony awakens long dormant instincts for sacred relationship, inviting you to safely traverse the inner landscape of your soul consciousness in order to release the fears and limitations that have hindered your ability to manifest your heart's desire for an intimate, authentic, loving relationship with your Soul Companion - whether with a new or existing partner. This calling from the heart starts with your own healing and purification, and leads you through personal empowerment and spiritual understanding until you are crystal clear about who you perceive yourself to be and who you are calling into your life. Upon the culmination of your personal journey, you are ready to sit with the Fire to call your Beloved to you, connecting energetically heart to heart so that you can meet in the physical with grace and ease. White Star outlines the ceremonies and indigenous wisdom she learned through oral tradition as an apprentice for over 17 years to a healer and medicine man of Cherokee descent in the Blue Ridge Mountains of Western North Carolina. Not only does she share these native teachings and traditions in her own words with clarity and simplicity, she also relates her personal journey of calling her Soul Companion into her life using candor and humor. Because the Calling Ceremony is a life-changing and love-enhancing spiritual adventure, White Star has made this sacred Calling Ceremony available to all who are seeking a higher vibration in their relationship. Consciously inviting joy and healing into every aspect of your life and intentionally aligning your heart's desire with the web of co-creation and interconnectedness that has always been present in your life are the true powers of the Calling Ceremony.
