"'Can a nation disappear forever?' . . . In] a tale of collective loss, political revolution and the individual quest for self-determination . . . Kim brings us the souls caught up on the ground of this larger drama." -- Minneapolis Star Tribune In 1904, facing war and the loss of their nation, more than a thousand Koreans leave their homes for the promise of land in unknown Mexico. After a long sea voyage, these emigrants -- thieves and royals, priests and soldiers, orphans and entire families -- discover that they have been sold into indentured servitude. Aboard the ship, the orphan Ijeong fell in love with a nobleman's daughter; separated when the hacendados claim their laborers, he vows to find her. Then, after years of working in the punishing heat of the henequen fields, the Koreans are caught in the midst of a Mexican revolution. A tale of star-crossed love, political turmoil, and the dangers of seeking freedom in a new world, Black Flower is an epic story based on a little-known moment in history. "Kim is at the leading edge of a new breed of South Korean writers." -- Philadelphia City Paper "Spare and beautiful." -- Publishers Weekly, starred review "Readers who remember the historical fiction of Thomas B. Costain, Zo Oldenbourg and Anya Seton will appreciate Kim's] extensive research and empathic imagination." -- Kirkus ReviewsBinding Type: Paperback

Great Book for Men’s Group
Format: Hardcover
Our men’s group was looking for a great book to for our mid-week Bible Study and were excited to learn that Max Lucado had this book. God Never Gives Up on You has been perfect. Each chapter is easy to read while providing depth in thought. The best part is that each chapter is only about 10pgs (which seems to be a great number for our group). Great questions for group discussion at the end of the book too!

Great book

I enjoyed this book. Jacob was a good study. I learned that God can use me in spite of me.

Much Needed Message
Format: Kindle
Beyond the message, I thoroughly enjoyed the story of Jacob in the Book of Genesis. And I thoroughly enjoyed Pastor Max Lucado‘s take on the story, and how he made it come to life for me.
You will not be disappointed in this book, or it’s message,… I promise.

Very insightful
Format: Paperback
A very interesting way to break down the concepts of basic and/or sophisticated cybersecurity. In that retrospect, you come to see that all security measures are quite the same. The difference lies in the environment; one is a corporate office, the other is Feudal Japan. It's a good read
