The Memoirs of General P. H. Sheridan, Volume I., Part 3
By 9 o'clock on the morning of September 22 my command took up a position within the heavy line of intrenchments at Chattanooga, the greater part of which defenses had been thrown up since the army commenced arriving there the day before. The enemy, having now somewhat recovered from the shock of the recent battle, followed carefully, and soon invested us close into our lines with a parallel system of rifle-pits. He also began at once to erect permanent lines of earthworks on Missionary Ridge and to establish himself strongly on Lookout Mountain. He then sent Wheeler's cavalry north of the Tennessee, and, aided greatly by the configuration of the ground, held us in a state of partial siege, which serious rains might convert into a complete investment. The occupation of Lookout Mountain broke our direct communication with Bridgeport-our sub-depot—and forced us to bring supplies by way of the Sequatchie Valley and Waldron's Ridge of the Cumberland Mountains, over a road most difficult even in the summer season, but now liable to be rendered impassable by autumn rains. The distance to Bridgeport by this circuitous route was sixty miles, and the numerous passes, coves, and small valleys through which the road ran offered tempting opportunities, for the destruction of trains, and the enemy was not slow to take advantage of them. Indeed, the situation was not promising, and General Rosecrans himself, in communicating with the President the day succeeding the battle of Chickamauga, expressed doubts of his ability to hold the gateway of the Cumberland Mountains.

Milionová loupež - The Million Dollar Bond Robery
V povídce Milionová loupež dojde během plavby zaoceánské lodi Olympia do New Yorku ke krádeži dluhopisů v hodnotě milion dolarů. Podezřelým je pan Philip Ridgeway, který dluhopisy převážel. Snoubenka pana Ridgewaye Esmée je přesvědčena o jeho nevině a prosí Hercula Poirota o pomoc. Vždyť jen tři lidé měli klíče od kufru s dluhopisy, řešení by tedy mělo být snadné… Jedno z oblíbených témat Agathy Christie a sice záhadné síly a moc starověkého Egypta se objevuje i v povídce Tajemství egyptské hrobky. Kdo jiný než Hercule Poirot je schopen s pomocí logiky a rozumu vyvrátit historky o prokletí? Ve třetí povídce Dívka ve vlaku cestuje poněkud bezstarostný mladý muž vlakem za novým životem, neboť byl zrovna svým strýcem vyhozen z rodinné fi rmy. Náhodné setkání s krásnou dívkou však jeho život navždy změní. Cesta vlakem tvoří pozadí i poslední povídky Ten čtvrtý. Na cestě do Newcastle se v jednom kupé sejdou kanovník, psychiatr a právník. V kupé však sedí i čtvrtý muž, který zjevně nevěnuje jejich hovoru žádnou pozornost. Nakonec se ukáže, že právě on dokáže tyto vzdělané muže něčemu naučit.

Dream Cities : Seven Urban Ideas That Shape the World
Beginning as a lightbulb flicker or a sketch on a napkin, the landmarks and sights of our public spaces that we now associate with the vast and impersonal reaches of history all began as living ideas in the minds of spirited dreamers. In this book, Wade Graham explores the visionary works that have set the blueprint for contemporary built spaces. From the utopian superblocks of Le Corbusier to the agrarian revivalism of Frank Lloyd Wright, Wade crafts profiles of the singular individuals who have come to define the places most of us live in.

Turner: The Sea and the Alps
xtensive journeys in Britain and continental Europe provided an inexhaustible source of inspiration for the visionary colour composi-tions of J. M. William Turner.
In Switzerland he experienced the beauty and menace of the Alps, and by the sea the colourful harmonies of the diffuse light. The publication presents an incomparably original artist on his route to autonomy in art. The temporary peace on the continent from 1802 enabled the London artist to extend his search for motifs to Central Europe.
In particular he travelled through the mountain world of Switzerland, constantly sketching his impressions. Back in his studio, he developed the unique imagery of his sublime landscape paintings. Through pictures which tell of the forces of nature of the sea and of the Swiss mountain landscapes, the authors examine the change in the portrayal of the "sublime", the subject of weather phenomena and Turner's role as the forerunner of Modernism, while Cees Nooteboom reflects on Turner and travel.

In the Weeds - Behálózva - Lovelight Farm 2.
Egy magának való farmer és egy józan közösségimédia-influenszer újabb esélyt kap a szerelemre ebben az elbűvölő romkomban.
Evelyn St. James nem az a fajta nő, akit egykönnyen elfelejt az ember - Beckett Porter biztosan nem felejtette el. Egy hihetetlen hétvége Maine-ben, és a férfi a fellegekben járt. Nem ismeretlenek számára a forró és heves kalandok, de Evie valamiféle varázslattal hálózta be. Egyfolytában a lány jár az eszében: a nevetése, ahogy a mellkasát simogatja, és a nyakát csókolja...
Így amikor a nő hirtelen felbukkan a farmján egy közösségimédia-verseny részeként, Beckett totálisan összezavarodik. Fogalma sem volt róla, hogy az édes és szexi nő, akivel valami bárban találkozott, valójában egy globális jelenség. Amikor Evie ismét eltűnik, Beckett elhatározza, hogy végre továbblép.
Evie azonban, aki úgy érzi, hogy eltávolodott a munkájától, és egyre elégedetlenebb a közösségi médiával, próbál valami valódira rátalálni. Visszatér oda, ahol utoljára boldog volt: a Lovelight Farmra és Inglewild aprócska városába. És ennek abszolút semmi köze a dögös farmerhez, akivel két hihetetlen éjszakát töltött...
