Paperback. Etat : Good. The Turkish government under the Erdoğan regime is undertaking a brutal crackdown against the participants of a civic group, namely the Gülen movement, also known as the Hizmet (service) movement, with the deliberate intention of destroying this social group, in whole or in part. In this extensive research, Dr. Keneş argues that this crackdown is filled with violations that may be classified at the very least as crimes against humanity and could very well be the harbinger of what comes next in terms of a full-scale genocide to exterminate thousands of innocent people. Keneş exemplifies many of these crimes and scales them against the genocide criteria according to definitions and norms accepted by United Nations and field experts. Given that the international community has historically downplayed the early signs of genocidal acts and thus failed to prevent such crimes many times before, it is necessary to be on the alert before the Erdoğan regime goes that far. A Genocide in the Making? is a unique volume that loudly cries out to the world this highly probable risk before it is too late.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. It was rare, if not impossible, to find in '80s and '90s a Muslim cleric who spoke in favor of democracy, integration with the Western world, and universal human values. Fethullah Gulen was one of those. Many of his avant-garde ideas did not only earn him one of the largest and most influential faith-inspired social movements of recent history, but also many foes, especially from the Turkish ruling elite, placing him in the center of many social and political developments in Turkey. Despite the enormous defamation from some political groups in Turkey, Gulen is recognized in the world as a devout Muslim cleric, whose thoughts and life style are deeply rooted in the Islamic faith, but who also believes Islam is not in conflict with the progressive values of the modern world. This book collates Gulen's ahead-of-his-time comments on some of the debated issues as he phrased in interviews in the past few decades.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. World-famous as the Queen of Spas, Saratoga Springs entered a golden age in the Victorian years and the world flocked to its doorstep every summer. The rich and famous rubbed elbows with a growing post-Civil War middle class popularizing a new concept, the summer vacation. They came ostensibly to take the waters at the bubbling mineral springs, but what they really came for was to see and be seen on the grand piazzas of the magnificent, colossal hotels that lined Saratoga's Broadway, and to share in the limelight of glittering balls and fabulous parties.The grace and opulence of America's Victorian era faded with the dawn of the twentieth century, and almost all of the buildings and views in this book have long since disappeared in clouds of dust from the wrecker's ball or in spectacular cataclysmic infernos, but in Saratoga Lost, Robert Joki takes the reader on a guided tour of that grand era with hundreds of historic photographs from the author's extraordinary private collection, complemented, by period artwork. …

Paperback. Etat : Very Good. Catskill Trails offers rewarding hikes for every level of ability. Each hike is accompanied by a trail map, a photo, and a key to the hike supplying such useful information as where to park, trail difficulty, climb in elevation, distance traveled, and a short synopsis of the route itself.The author, a conservation professional, has taken an interdisciplinary approach, drawing the latest information from geology, forest ecology, meteorology, wildlife biology, geography, economics, and history to offer a well-rounded picture of the Catskill Mountains as the hikes rise to the sky through levels of rock strata and ever-changing forests. The goal, as the author states, is for the reader to experience the hike and see the Catskills as a natural historian, not a tourist, and to see not just the present, but the past as well . and maybe even the future.Written in a lyrical style that carries the reader swiftly along from trailhead to rocky precipice, while missing nothing along the way, Catskill Trails combines the eye of the scientist with the sensibility of the poet. The result is a very unusual synthesis -- a hiking guide that reads almost as well in an overstuffed armchair as along a trail-less ridge or windblown rock outcropping.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. Chainbreaker's War takes the modern reader on a startling journey to a supremely exotic place-the mind and memory of an eighteenth-century warrior. Previously accessible only to a scholars, this authentic narrative of a Seneca war chief recounting his experiences during the American Revolution has been edited for readability, freeing at last the clear, strong voice of the Seneca leader known to American colonists as Governor Blacksnake, who, together with the Mohawk chieftain Joseph Brant and other leaders of the powerful Iroquois Confederation scourged the New York and Pennsylvania frontiers. Chainbreaker's war path led him to some of the bloodiest episodes of the Revolution, beginning with the Battle of Oriskany and the Wyoming Valley Massacre, and ending with valiant but vain attempts to stop General Sullivan's armies from destroying Iroquois settlements after George Washington decided they were a greater threat to the fledgling nation than the British armies.…
