Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - A sweeping historical novel set against one of the most devastating uprisings in world history-the Taiping Rebellion, a conflict that claimed more than twenty million lives and reshaped 19th-century China.When Hong Xiuquan, a failed scholar from Guangdong, experiences visions that convince him he is the younger brother of Jesus Christ, he begins preaching a radical new faith that challenges the Qing dynasty and electrifies the poor and disenfranchised. His message spreads with astonishing speed, transforming a personal revelation into a revolutionary movement.Across the Pacific, Elijah Roberts, an American revivalist shaped by the fervor of the Second Great Awakening, feels called to bring the gospel to China. Idealistic and determined, he enters a world he does not fully understand-one already trembling on the edge of upheaval.Caught between them is Kan, Hong's cousin and closest confidant, a man torn between loyalty, doubt, and the terrifying momentum of a movement spiraling beyond anyone's control.As the Taiping Heavenly Kingdom rises, alliances fracture, empires tremble, and the line between divine purpose and human ambition blurs. Through the intertwined lives of Hong, Elijah, and Kan, Taiping explores faith, identity, cultural collision, and the cost of believing too deeply in a vision of heaven on earth.Richly researched and deeply human, Taiping brings to life one of history's most extraordinary and misunderstood eras-an epic story of conviction, delusion, and the people caught in the fire between them.…

Buch. Condition: Neu. Neuware - It's All About the Numbers: The Legends, Superstitions, and Culture Behind the DigitsMichael Jordan didn't choose #23 to become a legend. He chose it because his brother wore #45, and 45 divided by 2, rounded up, equals 23. That simple calculation-born from sibling rivalry and respect-changed sports history forever.Behind every jersey number is a story hiding in plain sight: the catcher who wears #12 to honor the twelve minutes his daughter survived without oxygen. The linebacker who paid $250,000 for two digits. The goalkeeper who chose #00 hoping for shutouts-and got exactly one. The player who built his entire brand on a girlfriend's miscount.From Rolexes to Porsches, from beer to college funds, athletes have traded everything for the right number. Some honor fallen heroes. Some follow superstitions. Some turn digits into hundred-million-dollar brands. And some discover too late they've been wearing the wrong number all along.Drawing on 350+ sources and featuring over 200 athletes-from Michael Jordan to Caitlin Clark-across baseball, basketball, football, hockey, and soccer, It's All About the Numbers connects scattered stories across a century of sports into a comprehensive narrative about what jersey numbers really mean: identity forged through tribute, negotiation, faith, family, and sometimes pure accident. You'll learn why Tom Brady settled for #12, how your brain processes athletes differently based on their numbers, and why some teams have banned #13 for decades while others embrace it as lucky.These are the stories of sports' most visible symbols-and proof that in athletics, as in life, the number on your back isn't decoration. It's destiny.…
