(This the definitive anthology of Kennedy's poetic works. ...)
This the definitive anthology of Kennedy's poetic works. In it you will find virtually everything he has ever written, including his most recent compositions. It is, almost literally, the poetic story of his life. Kennedy isn’t one to mince words. He can be opinionated and is by nature sardonic. He is also a free spirit, open-minded and unconstrained by conventional forms of presentation. His subject matter runs the gamut, but much of his work is focused on God, religion, love, social mores and, of course, the meaning of life. He is passionate. He is profound. He is earthy, mundane– even ribald occasionally; he also sublime. He is questioning. He is a wordsmith; he is complex and sometimes he can be “too simple to understand,” as are all deep thinkers. “…He makes us see things not only clearly and whole, but differently than before, the mark of an artist of the first rank.” He is a poet for all ages, as will he be a poet for future generations. He is decidedly one of a kind.

(A broken relationship inspires Anna Barham to go travelli...)
A broken relationship inspires Anna Barham to go travelling on the gap year she missed out on ten years earlier. While in Africa, she falls for Falklands War veteran and now travel writer Davey Morgan. Morgan has written a book revealing a war crime that has haunted him since the battle for Mount Tumbledown. Back in the UK, operatives of an MI6 unit, whose task is to stop the publication of memoirs that might embarrass the British Government, start their dirty tricks to stop him publishing his book. Working within the unit as police liaison, Superintendent Al Woods of the London, Metropolitan Police has more to lose than most if Morgan’s account sees the light of day. Twenty years earlier as a sergeant in the Scots Guards, Woods had been a key player in the events revealed in the book. Anna is drawn into an increasingly deadly world. At the same time in Argentina, Lorenzo Garcia Santos, the brother of an Argentine conscript killed in the war and identified in the account, stumbles upon the blurb of Morgan’s book. It sets Lorenzo on a path to England to seek answers. Twenty years on from the violent events of 1982, the lives of those involved, collide once more in a bloody conclusion on the streets of Madrid, Barcelona and London. Tumbledown Ghosts is a fast paced action thriller. A story of the psychological legacy of war, government suppression, love, murder and ultimately, revenge.

An intimate biography of one of the greatest social and religious reformers of the modern world. "Gandhi's work in nonviolence was comprehensive and not simply confined to politics or human rights. It was about building positive relationships based on respect, understanding, acceptance and appreciation. It was about eliminating exploitation of all kinds and creating harmony." ―from the Foreword by Dr. Arun Gandhi, cofounder of the M. K. Gandhi Institute for Nonviolence Mohandas Gandhi (1869–1948) was one of the most important and influential social and religious reformers of the past century, spending his life striving for justice, peace and equality among countries, races and classes. His ideas and ideals have inspired generations of activists―from Martin Luther King Jr. to Vaclav Havel―and acted as catalysts for change in every corner of the globe. In this intimate biography, Charles ("Charlie") Andrews-Englishman, Anglican priest, and a close friend and colleague of Gandhi's in both South Africa and India―explores the life and times of this great soul, providing fascinating insight into the spiritual, political and historical environment that affected Gandhi, playing key roles in the development of his thought and action. Mahatma Gandhi: His Life and Ideas uses letters, personal reminiscences and excerpts from Gandhi's many published and private writings to paint a vivid and accessible portrait of the personality and spirit of one of the most prominent figures in Indian―and world―history. This updated edition showcases a new foreword about the continuing impact and importance of Gandhi's message today, written by Dr. Arun Gandhi, Mahatma Gandhi's grandson and cofounder of the M. K. Gandhi Institute for Nonviolence.

( The crucible of North American neoliberal transformatio...)
The crucible of North American neoliberal transformation is heating up, but its outcome is far from clear. Continental Crucible examines the clash between the corporate offensive and the forces of resistance from both a pancontinental and a class struggle perspective. This book also illustrates the ways in which the capitalist classes in Canada, Mexico, and the United States used free-trade agreements to consolidate their agendas and organize themselves continentally. The failure of traditional labor responses to stop the continental offensive being waged by big business has led workers and unions to explore new strategies of struggle and organization, pointing to the beginnings of a continental labor movement across North America. The battle for the future of North America has begun.

Leopold Classic Library is delighted to publish this classic book as part of our extensive collection. As part of our on-going commitment to delivering value to the reader, we have also provided you with a link to a website, where you may download a digital version of this work for free. Many of the books in our collection have been out of print for decades, and therefore have not been accessible to the general public. Whilst the books in this collection have not been hand curated, an aim of our publishing program is to facilitate rapid access to this vast reservoir of literature. As a result of this book being first published many decades ago, it may have occasional imperfections. These imperfections may include poor picture quality, blurred or missing text. While some of these imperfections may have appeared in the original work, others may have resulted from the scanning process that has been applied. However, our view is that this is a significant literary work, which deserves to be brought back into print after many decades. While some publishers have applied optical character recognition (OCR), this approach has its own drawbacks, which include formatting errors, misspelt words, or the presence of inappropriate characters. Our philosophy has been guided by a desire to provide the reader with an experience that is as close as possible to ownership of the original work. We hope that you will enjoy this wonderful classic book, and that the occasional imperfection that it might contain will not detract from the experience.
