Ralph Waldo Emerson famously said, “It’s not the destination, it’s the journey.” He must’ve been a Phillies fan. The Philadelphia Phillies, a franchise nearly 150 years old, has only reached its grand destination twice (World Series wins in 1980 and 2008), but it harbors the most fervent fan base in baseball. How? Well, Olive Garden famously said, “When you’re here, you’re family.” The Phillies—warts and all—have been an inextricable part of the city, and the lives of the fans who cheered them on. The team’s story is part of our story.

What happens when faith picks up a sword? From the blood-soaked streets of Jerusalem to the burning of Constantinople, Deus Vult tells the full, unflinching story of the Crusades — the wars that defined medieval Christendom, reshaped the world, and left behind a legacy of violence, myth, and madness.

JJ delivers a fast-paced, brutally clear narrative of how the Crusades actually happened — without the gloss, without the Sunday school edits, and without pretending anyone knew what they were doing.

The story of Jackie Robinson valiantly breaking baseball’s color barrier in 1947 is one that most Americans know. But less recognized is the fact that some seventy years earlier, following the Civil War, baseball was tenuously biracial and had the potential for a truly open game. How, then, did the game become so firmly segregated that it required a trailblazer like Robinson? The answer, Ryan A. Swanson suggests, has everything to do with the politics of “reconciliation” and a wish to avoid the issues of race that an integrated game necessarily raised.

In his first fourteen seasons, as a pitcher for the Giants, Christy Mathewson never won fewer than twenty games in a season, and he almost single-handedly won the 1905 World Series. In 1918, though age thirty-eight and exempt from military service, he enlisted for World War I, where he exposed himself to nearly lethal amounts of mustard gas as he taught soldiers how to put on gas masks. When he returned home, he was diagnosed with lung problems and tuberculosis, which led to his untimely death at the age of forty-five.

From an award-winning journalist, a reflective, smart, and deeply reported look at the millennial generation that draws on the experiences of five diverse individuals and explores where we go from here. What happened to millennials? At the birth of America’s largest living generation, the outlook was strong: unparalleled economic growth, the emerging Internet, the rise of the cell phone, and a geopolitics that had allegedly reached “the end of history” all set expectations exceedingly high for a cohort entering adulthood at the dawn of the new millennium.

La Inquisición española fue una mezcla de agencia de espionaje, unidad de asuntos internos y fuerza de orden público que, aunque tuviera como objetivo prioritario la persecución de delitos religiosos, acabó convirtiéndose –y esta es una de las sorpresas mayúsculas de este libro– en un brazo «político» de la monarquía hispánica, realizando una labor de vigilancia global, con intervenciones quirúrgicas.
