Schalk's Little Book for Brothers

Beschreibung

For many of us, the concept of brotherhood was entrenched (pun intended) in the literal and proverbial trenches. Whether on the streets, in the military or other teams, or through the navigation of large societal chaos or deep personal adversity, a relationship was tested by fire and found to be gold: men, or women, were brought together, almost as if destined or divinely appointed, to face life, death, and all the tragic adversity in between, together. However, the word is complex: for some it means I've killed for you, or I've almost been killed for you, and I'll do it again; for others it stands almost next to nothing, an empty term, meaning no more than: 'Hey, you.' This Little Book is an attempt to concisely unpack and highlight the principles that underlie true brotherhood. If it's successful it might help some of us understand the word in a more healthy and balanced manner, and it might help some others, at the very least, to be more careful when they use the word, but hopefully, to know that when they do use it, that it should actually mean something. The "Schalk's Little Book Series" is a collection of concise treatments on certain themes and topics. Each Little Book is just under 10 000 words in length and purposefully designed to be easily digested and referenced.

Autor

Quick Introduction: Schalk is a published author, lay minister, and retired special operations response team leader with 18 years experience running interventions in at-risk communities and 7 years experience executing urban tactical and intelligence based operations. Detailed Bio: Schalk Holloway is a subject literature author in the fields of Christian ministry, as well as professional firearms and combatives instruction. His first book, 'Die Groot Storie', was traditionally published by Struik Christian Media (the preeminent publisher for Christian books in South Africa) and can be found on the shelves of most South African chain bookstores. His second treatment, 'The Maul Book' (co-authored by Gavin Coleman), has been widely acclaimed as one of the best books on its subject field. 'The Maul Book' as well as the 'Schalk's Little Book Series' can be ordered from most major online distributors. In 2022 Schalk suffered a severe injury leading to multiple surgeries and a long period of recovery. Subsequently, he retired from certain instructional and operational environments. He is now enjoying an independent career as novelist. His first novels, 'The Brooklyn Saga', are a crossover between psychological thriller and realistic fiction. These books draw inspiration from his extensive experience running interventions and operations in at-risk communities. Schalk is currently working on more titles for his 'Little Book Series' as well as an exciting new hard and military science fiction series, 'The Posterity Doctrine'. Neurodivergence and (C/)PTSD themes feature strongly in in all Schalk's tales.
