Betty Zane by Zane Grey (Hardcover)
“Betty Zane” is a 1903 historical novel by American author Zane Grey. The story revolves around Grey’s great-grandmother “Betty” Zane, who was a heroine of the Revolutionary War on the American frontier. The central event of the novel is the story of how Zane single-handedly resupplied a besieged Fort Henry with gun powder from her family home, resulting in a victorious defence on the American side. Unable to find a publisher for his book, Grey published “Betty Zane” himself. This fantastic story is highly recommended for those with an interest in historical fiction and the Revolutionary War.

Sociology
Betwixt and Between Identities by Dr. Shalini Goyal
About the book – Ruth Prawer Jhabvala is an Indo -Anglian novelist belonging to Europe by virtue of birth but settled in India by virtue of marriage. This book is a study of three novels of Ruth Prawer Jhabvala: A Backward Place, A New Dominion and Heat and Dust and deals with cultural cross currents and the problem of betwixt and between identities faced by the characters of Jhabvala. Jhabvala herself faced cultural cross currents and the problem of betwixt and between identity while staying in India and she portrayed the same in her fiction. Though she made this country her home for about a quarter of a century, but she views India and Indian characters from the lens of a foreigner. This book divides the European characters into three categories: Firstly there are the European seekers seeking love, peace and spirituality in India. Second category is of the users or suckers who live in India just to thrive on the benevolence of the rich Indians. The third group belonging to this trio is of the temporary visitors who come to India with an aim to interpret her mysteries but fail to understand real India. All these characters become betwixt and between personalities belonging neither to the East nor to the West.

Beyond Good and Evil Classic Hardback Edition by Friedrich Nietzsche
- ISBN-13 : 978-8182475229
- Page : 162 pages
- Dimensions : 22 x 14 x 1.5 cm
Beyond Good and Evil confirmed Nietzsche’s position as the towering European philosopher of his age. The work dramatically rejects traditional Western thought with its notions of truth and God, good and evil. Nietzsche seeks to demonstrate that the Christian world is steeped in a false piety and infected with a ‘slave morality’. With wit and energy, he turns from this critique to a philosophy that celebrates the present and demands that the individual impose their own ‘will to power’ upon the world.

- Page : 94
- Dimensions : 22 x 14 x 1 cm
Bhakti Yoga, or the path of devotion, is based on the doctrine Love is God and God is Love. The Bhakti yogi experiences separation and longs to meet or even just glimpses his beloved, God. Nothing else attract him, nothing else holds his attention, all else is meaningless. Bhakti Yoga appeals particularly to those of an emotional nature. The Bhakti Yogi is motivated chiefly by the power of love and sees God as the embodiment of Love. Through prayer, worship and ritual he surrenders himself to God, channelling and transmuting his emotions into unconditional love or devotion. Chanting or singingthe praises of God form a substantial part of Bhakti Yoga

Biography
Biography Of A Great Author [hardcover] Ernest Hemingway
My introduction rather sadly judges The Old Man and the Sea period piece, an involuntary self-parody, an unfortunate allegory in which Santiago is Christ is Hemingway. Almost all the essayists gathered here seem to me to have read some book other than the one they purportedly discuss. P.G. Rama Rao praises The Old Man’s Skill in narration, while Williams finds nothing grotesque in Hemingway’s other tepid allegory, in which the sharks are unfriendly cities.
