In 1872, the USS Polaris sailed for the Arctic on a mission to hoist the U.S. flag at the North Pole. But the expedition was a failure, and half of the party, nineteen men, women and children of different nationalities,were cast adrift on an ice floe off the coast of Ellesmere Island, where they endured six desperate months of starvation, bloodshed and other horrors. Afterlands, a profoundly moving and gripping book, takes characters drawn from history and transforms their experiences into an absorbing tale of unrequited love, unsettled scores and the high cost of loyalty.

Poetry by a Greek American psychotherapist " Many of us avoid the topic of death, but, death can be viewed as the beginning of a new journey. This collection of poetry explores the pain and loss that comes with losing a loved one. The author's experience with death and her father dying inspired her to find the courage to let go, the strength to accept the unknown, and the faith to trust in God's plan' , 93p. illustrations by Demetra Bakogiorgas.

Very light shelfwear to book. Scholars' name to ffep (Mark Golden). ; As one of the two Spartan kings, Agesilaos II presided over Sparta's greatest imperial expansion and its collapse as a major power. At his accession in 400 BC, Sparta had recently defeated Athens in the Peloponnesian War and was the undisputed leader of the Aegean Greek world; at the time of his death some forty years later, Sparta had been reduced to the status of a mere Peloponnesian squabbler, its role indistinguishable from that of any of a number of other Greek states. "Agesilaos and the Crisis of Sparta" is an account of this critical period of Greek history, focusing on a single career. Progressing both chronologically and thematically, the author reveals the principal aspects of Spartan politics and society and appraises the possible causes of Sparta's preciptous decline and fall. ; 520 pages
