Thousands of books have been written about World War II. Most have dealt with the War's historical aspects, strategies, or the heroism and outstanding acts of the men who did the fighting. "1945" is not about heroes. In fact, it is not about "men"; its primary characters are "boys." By 1944, every man in his twenties or thirties had already been conscripted. Subsequently, almost all draftees at this stage of the war were eighteen years of age. To put this in perspective; in today's world they would not be considered sufficiently mature to buy a can of beer or pack of cigarettes. No parent likes to see his son go to war but these were children. In January 1945, everyone knew the war didn't have long to go and just as tension mounts towards the end of a race, anxiety and impatience became people's primary reactions to the news each day. Readers of this book will gain insight of the heretofore little told and appreciated emotions of the men in the Armed Forces and their families at home: hope, fear and prayers that it all would end before something tragic happened to a loved one who had been lucky enough to survive to this point.
From prompting a transition from hunter-gatherer to an agrarian lifestyle in ancient Mesopotamia to bankrolling Britain's imperialist conquests, strategic taxation and the regulation of beer has played a pivotal role throughout history. Beeronomics: How Beer Explains the World tells these stories, and many others, whilst also exploring the key innovations that propelled the industrialization and consolidation of the beer market. At the same time when mega-mergers in the brewing industry are creating huge transnationals selling their beer across the globe, the craft beer movement in America and Europe has brought the rich history of ancient brewing techniques to the forefront in recent years. But less talked about is the economic influence of this beverage on the world and the myriad ways it has shaped the course of history. Beeronomics covers world history through the lens of beer, exploring the common role that beer taxation has played throughout and providing context for recognizable brands and consumer trends and tastes. Beeronomics examines key developments that have moved the brewing industry forward. Its most ubiquitous ingredient, hops, was used by the Hanseatic League to establish the export dominance of Hamburg and Bremen in the sixteenth century. During the late nineteenth century, bottom-fermentation led to the spread of industrial lager beer. Industrial innovations in bottling, refrigeration, and TV advertising paved the way for the consolidation and market dominance of major macrobreweries like Anheuser Busch in America and Artois Brewery in Belgium during the twentieth century. We're now in the era of global integration-- one multinational AB InBev, claims 46% of all beer profits-- but there's a counterrevolution afoot of small, independent craft breweries in both America, Belgium and around the world. Beeronomics surveys these trends, giving context to why you see which brands and styles on shelves at your local supermarket or on tap at the nearby pub.

ORDINARY PEOPLE. That's what most of us are. People with lives full of routines and responsibilities, to-do lists, and daily chores. Often the demands of everyday life leave us tired and frustrated, sometimes hoping for remarkable revelations from God to remind us of His presence. But God doesn't often do things that way, preferring instead to meet us where we are, in the commonplace, ordinary moments of life. In When God Whispers, a collection of insightful, Scripture based meditations, Carole Mayhall has captured some of these special moments. Each reflection in this warming collection is grounded in a particular Scripture verse, delivered in Carole's unique voice, and fleshed out with her personal experience. Wonderful as a devotional guide, When God Whispers makes Scripture come alive in a personal, emotional, and here-and-now way.
