\"Captain<\/a><\/p>\n

\n

The definitive artist of post-Watergate America, Elton John accounted for a staggering two percent of all global record sales by 1975, while his concert tours routinely broke house records set by the Rolling Stones and the Beatles. Combining rigorous research with critical insight — and drawing on over ninety firsthand interviews with Elton’s closest friends and collaborators — ‘Captain Fantastic: The Definitive Biography of Elton John in the ’70s’ is a no-holds-barred portrait of the troubled genius who helped change the landscape of popular music more than any other solo artist since Elvis Presley.<\/p>\n

‘Captain Fantastic: The Definitive Biography of Elton John in the ’70s’ explores in intimate detail the life of a greatly misunderstood icon during the Technicolor decade when his creative powers were at their zenith and his personal life at its most conflicted. The result is a work that provides fresh insight into a musical force nonpareil, including explorations of Elton’s battles with various addictions, his suicide attempts (including one never before spoken of), his startling success as a leading icon of the era, his exploration of his sexuality, the stories behind nearly every song he wrote and recorded during the decade, and much more.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n

George Bowling is having a crisis. Not a loud, unsightly one, but a small, desperate one. His days are occupied by an unfulfilling insurance job; his nights spent worrying about his mortgage, marriage, expanding waistline, and what seems to be a certain prospect of World War II looming on the horizon. So when George unexpectedly hits it big on a lucky horse, he spends the windfall on the only thing he ever knew to make him happy: his childhood.<\/p>\n

George travels back to his boyhood home of Lower Binfield, swimming in vivid memories of worry-free bliss, sights, sounds, smells, and emotions of a pre-war world. But while the idyllic village in George\u2019s head may not have seen battle, the reality may be more sobering than he is prepared to deal with.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

With his gift for linguistics, Norman Lewis was assigned to the British Intelligence Corps\u2019 Field Security Service, tasked with reforming civil services, dealing with local leaders, and keeping the peace in places World War II had devastated.<\/p>\n

After a near-disastrous Allied landing at Salerno, Italy, Lewis was stationed in the newly liberated city of Naples. But bringing the city back to life was unlike anything he had been prepared for. Much of the populace was far from grateful, stealing anything they could, not only from each other but also from those sent to help them. Local vendettas and endless feuds made discerning friend from Nazi collaborator practically impossible, and turned attempts at meting out justice into a farce.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Over the last half a billion years, there have been five mass extinctions, when the diversity of life on earth suddenly and dramatically contracted. Scientists around the world are currently monitoring the sixth extinction, predicted to be the most devastating extinction event since the asteroid impact that wiped out the dinosaurs. This time around, the cataclysm is us. In\u00a0The Sixth Extinction<\/i>, two-time winner of the National Magazine Award and\u00a0New Yorker<\/i>\u00a0writer Elizabeth Kolbert draws on the work of scores of researchers in half a dozen disciplines, accompanying many of them into the field: geologists who study deep ocean cores, botanists who follow the tree line as it climbs up the Andes, marine biologists who dive off the Great Barrier Reef. She introduces us to a dozen species, some already gone, others facing extinction, including the Panamian golden frog, staghorn coral, the great auk, and the Sumatran rhino.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n

Every heart longs to be seen and understood. Yet most of our lives is unwitnessed. We spend our days working, driving, parenting. We sometimes spend whole seasons feeling unnoticed and unappreciated. So how do we find contentment when we feel so hidden?<\/p>\n

In\u00a0Unseen<\/em>, Sara Hagerty suggests that this is exactly what God intended. He is the only One who truly knows us. He is the only One who understands the value of the unseen in our lives. When this truth seeps into our souls, we realize that only when we hide ourselves in God can we give ourselves to others in true freedom\u2014and know the joy of a deeper relationship with the God who sees us.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n<\/div>\n
