479th Fighter Group 'Riddle'S Raiders' BY John Stanaway 9781846034206 | eBay



Formed in October 1943 as part of the last group of fighter units to be
sent into combat in northern Europe and the Pacific, the 479th FG wrote
for itself an impressive history whilst flying against the Luftwaffe
from RAF Wattisham in rural Suffolk. Despite the group's P-38s not being
highly regarded in the Eighth Air Force due to their unsuitability for
high-altitude combat, the 479th's pilots had a fierce pride of arms.
Their fighting spirit, which saw the group destroy hundreds of German
aircraft, earned the 479th a Presidential Distinguished Unit Citation in
the late summer of 1944. The 479th transitioned to the P-51 Mustang in
the autumn of 1944, and by VE-Day, some 29 aces had been created by the
group, which had claimed more than 430 kills. Book jacket.

12 Years A Slave, Illustrated By Solomon Northup, 9781481916783., History in English 蛇

Pełny opis 12 Years a Slave, Illustrated by Solomon Northup, 9781481916783.

12 years a slave - The Actual People of the True Story. Released
during the 160th anniversary of the freeing of Solomon Northup in
Marksvillle, Avoyelles Parish, Louisiana. First published in 1853, this
gripping first hand account of how it felt to be a slave in the deep
south captures the suffering and ultimate triumph of a New York free
black man who was kidnapped into slavery in Louisiana. For the first
time ever published, see the real faces of some of the actual people and
places who Solomon Northup writes about. These are not actors, these
are the portraits of the men and women who Northup met. This edition
contains historic photographs, some never published before, of the areas
and people of the Northup story. The illustrator lives in Avoyelles
Parish and has spent a lifetime collecting historic photos. Most of the
portraits and scenes in this edition taken from the files of his
Avoyelles Parish archives. Many descendants of these families still
reside in the area today. This edition of the book is dedicated to the
memory of Dr. Sue Lyles Eakin who spent a lifetime researching and
promoting the story of Solomon Northrup. This edition compliments her
work and her earlier edition of the 12 years a slave work. For footnotes
and more detail about the 12 years a slave book we also recommend Dr.
Eakin's work so a reader can get a more complete understanding of the
this important story. The story has been told in plays, movies and even
courtroom anniversary recreations in the Marksville, Avoyelles Parish
courthouse. The story was first made into a PBS televised movie in the
1980s, and the most recent version is a major motion picture.

The First Muslim, The Story Of Muhammad By Lesley Hazleton, 9781782392323., Religion

Pełny opis The First Muslim, The Story of Muhammad by Lesley Hazleton, 9781782392323.

The extraordinary life of the man who founded Islam, and the world he inhabited ? and remade.


Muhammad's was a life of almost unparalleled historical importance; yet
for all the iconic power of his name, the intensely dramatic story of
the prophet of Islam is not well known. In The First Muslim,
Lesley Hazleton brings him vibrantly to life. Drawing on early
eyewitness sources and on history, politics, religion, and psychology,
she renders him as a man in full, in all his complexity and vitality.

Hazleton's
account follows the arc of Muhammad's rise from powerlessness to power,
from anonymity to renown, from insignificance to lasting significance.
How did a child shunted to the margins end up revolutionizing his world?
How did a merchant come to challenge the established order with a new
vision of social justice? How did the pariah hounded out of Mecca turn
exile into a new and victorious beginning? How did the outsider become
the ultimate insider?

Impeccably researched and thrillingly
readable, Hazleton's narrative creates vivid insight into a man
navigating between idealism and pragmatism, faith and politics,
non-violence and violence, rejection and acclaim. The First Muslim illuminates not only an immensely significant figure but his lastingly relevant legacy.

About the Author

Lesley Hazleton reported on the Middle East from Jerusalem for more than a dozen years, and has written for Time, The New York Times, The New York Review of Books, and Harper's, among other publications. Her last book, After the Prophet, was a finalist for the PEN-USA book Award. Hazleton lives in Seattle.

Islamic Commercial Law, An Analysis Of Futures And Options By Mohammad Hashim Kamali, 9780946621804., Religion & Beliefs ST

Islamic Commercial Law, An Analysis of Futures and Options by Mohammad Hashim Kamali, 9780946621804.

Islamic Commercial Law: An Analysis of Futures and Options
focuses on options and futures as trading tools and explores their
validity from an Islamic point of view. Futures and options are a
completely new phenomenon which has no parallel in Islamic commercial
law. After reviewing the existing rules of Islamic law of contract and
verifying their relevance or otherwise to futures trading, the author,
Professor M H Kamali, advances a new perspective on the issue of futures
and options based on an interpretation of the Qur'an and the Sunnah and
referring to the principle of maslaha (consideration of public
interest) as enshrined in the Shari'ah. Islamic Commercial Law
consists of three parts. Part One is devoted to the description of
futures trading and the understanding of operational procedures of
futures and futures markets; Part Two investigates the issue of
permissibility of futures trading in Islamic law and the underlying
questions of risk-taking and speculation, which are of central concern
to the topic. Part Three is devoted to an analysis of options. This work
will be of use to anyone working on Islamic law, comparative law or
working in Islamic banking.
