Ancient Japan: An Enthralling Overview of Ancient Japanese History, Starting from the Jomon Period to the Heian Period by Enthralling History
About Ancient Japan: An Enthralling Overview of Ancient Japanese History, Starting from the Jomon Period to the Heian Period by Enthralling History
Did you know that the first novel in the world was produced by a Japanese noblewoman?
Back in ancient times, the Japanese depended on Chinese characters (kanji) to write all sorts of documents and manuscripts, ranging from official letters to census records and poetry. It was only during the Heian period (794–1185 CE) that they began to create their very own writing system known today as kana.
While men from the higher social classes would often stick to kanji when producing literary works, kana was mainly used by noblewomen. The most prominent author of the Heian period is known as Murasaki Shikibu, an imperial lady-in-waiting who was responsible for producing the world’s first novel called Genji Monogatari, or The Tale of Genji. The novel also provides a detailed insight into the lives and culture of the Japanese people during that era.
The history of ancient Japan is filled with interesting events that involved many influential and legendary figures. However, some of the accounts were also infused with Japanese myths, which might make it difficult for curious readers to distinguish between facts and legends.
But you can safely put your concern aside. With this new Enthralling History book, you will discover an array of information and stories of the ancient Japanese, starting from the prehistoric era up until the Heian period, which saw the birth of the first samurai warriors.
Here’s just a small fraction of what you’ll discover:
• How the Jomon period earned its name and the impressive designs of early Japanese pottery.
• How rice cultivation first arrived in Japan and the transition into a more civilized society.
• The legendary kingdom of Yamatai and how it rose to power.
• The unique-looking kofun tombs and legends behind the persons interred within them.
• Vicious wars and assassinations of powerful figures in the imperial court.
• Interesting myths and the origins of Shinto, an indigenous Japanese religion.
• The flourishing culture and architecture of ancient Japan and the arrival of Buddhism.
• The bloody conflicts between the two earliest samurai clans.
• And much, much more!

From Darkness to Light: God’s Gift of Love
About From Darkness to Light: God’s Gift of Love
When you are feeling the hope of falling and you are failing. You can see how you fight from within your words. You are great and belief is an option. You get to decide what you think life should be like. This book will show you through poetry and image. You are your own light, and you decide your words, no one else. Life can always be great in every way. In the morning, remember how: and what you say can be your friend or make your days dark. I hope this book helps find you in the place you want to be and helps you learn to fight that demon called darkness that you no longer wish to be in.
When we open our eyes, we see every gift given to us and God’s protection from what will hurt us. The thing is we must stop, look and pay attention to everything. Yes it is work when you think about we do it every day anyway.
I was never positive as I am today. It took work on my end and God did his part by changing me from the inside out. My will to change from the darkness to light helped God to finish the assignment He had given to me. Life is hard, Yes, I know. The thing is when we see our life as hard and we don’t see any Positive or no way to grow and learn, then that is what life becomes. It is like school only as an adult you are now in the school of life and the world. You are finding yourself again.

Widows of Somerset
About Widows of Somerset
Rules of the Secret Society of Young Widows:
Rule 1: Be a widow.
Rule 2: Have an impeccable reputation.
Rule 3: Don’t fall in love again.
AN HEIR TO SPARE by Rebecca Connolly
Widowhood has changed much for Anna—Lady Lyndham—but an unconventional heir to the estate was not something she had anticipated. Nor had she anticipated that he would have no intention of forcing her out, although he has every right to. And she certainly did not anticipate finding him handsome, charming, and unfailingly generous. But Ned Richards, the new Lord Lyndham, has a world of surprises in store for her, and not anticipating them will become quite the adventure.
THE WIDOW OF LAVENDER COTTAGE by Jen Geigle Johnson
As a widow, Lillian Hunter has never been in love and plans to never marry again, so the rules of the Secret Society of Young Widows suit her just fine. Her days are spent attempting to transform her newly inherited Lavender Cottage into a livable space until Oliver Wentworth shows up, asking for her late husband. Anxious to establish himself as a landed gentry in Somerset, Oliver is none too pleased to discover that a widow lives alone in a tiny run down cottage bordering his new property. The fact that she’s young and attractive only adds frustration to his sense of responsibility over her. And confound her, she challenges his every attempt to help manage her affairs.
A PROMISE FORGOTTEN by Heather B. Moore
Charlotte Ashford never thought she’d marry a vicar, and she never thought she’d find herself widowed with a young child to care for on her own. She certainly never thought she’d return to Somerset to live with her mother again, and Charlotte never thought she’d see him again. But Lord Wilshore has never forgotten her, and he has never forgotten their promise made long ago. Charlotte would love nothing more than for Lord Wilshore to forgive her, but too much heartache and too much time might make that impossible. Friendship is all she can hope for, but that hope may be dashed as well.
