THE TRUTH IS THE ONLY SAFE GROUND TO STAND ON... Everyone has a "thing". Some of us have more "things" than others. Your "thing" could be a behavior, belief, way of being, an experience that you cannot let go of, or something else. Whatever your "thing" is, you must get to the root of it. You will never see new fruit until you first deal with the root. Calling a "thing" a "thing" is simply telling the truth. It can be difficult. It may scare you. It may offend you. For these reasons we delete information, embellish and stretch the story, or we avoid the issue altogether. This book will challenge your assumptions, abilities, thoughts, and everything in between to empower you to tell the truth, interrupt your story, and do the work. We all have a "thing". Expose it! Call it what it really is. When you tell the truth to yourself about yourself you bring yourself into alignment with God's purpose for your life. When you choose to look right at a "thing", acknowledge its existence, call it exactly by its name, and then decide what role it will play in your life, you have just chosen to take the first step toward freedom. So, confront your "thing", because anything you cannot confront, you cannot conquer!

A new edition of Arthur Conan-Doyle's classic account of the Second Anglo-Boer War, originally published in 1901. Now completely reset and updated with 194 new footnotes explaining terms, personalities, and events to the present-day reader, in addition to all 19 original footnotes by the author.This edition also benefits from three appendices detailing total military casualties on both sides; a short review of the Boer prisoner of war camps in the Caribbean, the island of St. Helena, Ceylon and India; and finally, a comprehensive overview of the British concentration camps and their effect upon the Boer population.Lavishly illustrated with 91 rare photographs, Conan-Doyle's work remains the standard by which all other accounts of the conflict are measured. Compiled by the author while serving as a medical doctor in Bloemfontein, the book starts by covering the origin of the Boer republics, and their dealings with the British and other emigrants on the Rand which laid the foundation of the casus belli.From there it moves onto a fast-moving and factual account of the various battles and campaigns which saw initial British defeats turned into rapid advances into the Boer heartlands. The expected Boer surrender then never materialised, and the conflict devolved into a hard-fought guerrilla war which saw nearly twice as many British troops deployed into the Boer republics as the latter's entire population: men, women, and children combined.A riveting story which has lost none of its drama in the past century, and whose reverberations can still be felt to the present day.This special anniversary edition is lavishly illustrated with 91 rare photographs and two maps.
