A startling but absolutely accurate history of the EU - a truly fascist organisation which was designed by Mussolini, Hitler and Funk (Hitler's economics advisor). Other senior Nazis helped plan the EU. This book gives the details of precisely how and when they did it. Hitler invented the phrase United States of Europe. Goering devised the name European Economic Community. The euro was Funk's idea. And Heydrich, one of the main architects of the Holocaust, published an early version of The Treaty of Rome. EU lovers won't like this book (and will doubtless deny its truths) but it is all ...

📖 The Ashkeeper: A short story where the ashes speak and the wind doesn’t forget. 🌬️ A spiritual fable about loss, memories, and the art of letting go. He is only known as the Ashkeeper. No one knows where he came from, nor how long he has been carrying out his sacred task: to scatter the ashes of those who have passed, in the places they once loved. 🕯️ With each journey, he carries an urn, a letter, and the weight of someone else’s final wish. He reads their words aloud to the wind. Sometimes he weeps. Sometimes he smiles. He always listens. He asks for no recognition. ...

I have three goals. Infiltrate the enemy compound. Rescue my sister. Escape into the desert. Not bond with a hot alien cat shifter warrior. Herc: A cat shifter mercenary--gun, fangs, and claws for hire--doesn't fall for a pretty little human. It's cost the Regime big-time to have me and my guys hunt down the Resistance fighters skulking in caves spread across this gods-forsaken planet. My sole focus here is this deployment. Until Maya touches me, igniting the first phase of a bondmate. It doesn't matter how freakin' sweet she is. How sexy. No way in all seven hells will I complete the three...

The subject of a New York Times best-selling biography and a Pulitzer-Prize winning musical, interest in Alexander Hamilton is at an all-time high. This carefully curated collection of Hamilton's writings gives the listener an intimate glimpse into the mind of our most misunderstood founding father.

Born at Steventon in 1775, the daughter of a Hampshire clergyman, Jane Austen was the youngest of seven children. She lived a quiet life, moving to Bath, Southampton, Chawton and eventually to Winchester where she died unmarried in 1817 at the age of 42. It is to her elder sister Cassandra that most of her surviving letters are written, and through them, we discover the intimate world of the English gentry.

As James Schiff writes in the introduction to this volume, of the writer who would eventually express himself in written form as fully as any American writer since Henry James, "Updike needed to write the way the rest of us need to breathe or eat." With his stunning rhetorical gifts—allowing him to thrive in both fiction and nonfiction, in criticism as well as poetry—he was also a consummate letter writer.

Love Letters of Great Men follows hot on the heels of the film and collects together some of history's most romantic letters from the private papers of Beethoven, Mark Twain, Mozart, and Lord Byron. For some of these great men, love is "a delicious poison" (William Congreve); for others, "a nice soft wife on a sofa with good fire, & books & music" (Charles Darwin). Love can scorch like the heat of the sun (Henry VIII), or penetrate the depths of one's heart like a cooling rain (Flaubert).

This classic, bestselling analysis of the EU - first published in 2008 but still remarkably relevant - has now been re-edited.. Described as: 'The most powerful and revealing book about the EU ever published.' The paperback now available is a digital printing.

The 6th volume of Vernon Coleman's diaries. Nothing like the Bilbury books. Contains nothing whatsoever about Gloucester Cathedral, embroidery or train spotting. Unsuitable for the politically correct. Strange things happen in the Coleman household. If anything unusual can happen it probably will. The Game's Afoot contains an unbelievable but true saga of what happened when they tried to sell their apartment in Paris and were forced to accept a buyer who couldn't even find the money for the deposit. Read why Vernon paid £2,500 to have the grass cut and sold a car for little more than half ...

Letters of dissatisfaction to a lover, trying to make sense of the deterioration of a relationship. There are love and hate poems and correspondences, as this woman is caught betwixt how she feels, and how she thinks. It is one thing to know what is right, it is a whole other to apply that knowledge. There are even journal entries to herself, as she tries to convince herself to let go. A perfect example of how the heart and soul and mind intertwine, so that nothing is purely black nor white. Rationalization, coaxing, reminisces, this book covers a journey of discovery.

In April 1915 Dorothea Crewdson, a newly trained Red Cross nurse, and her best friend, Christie, received instructions to leave for Le Treport in Northern France. Filled with excitement at the prospect of her first paid job, Dorothea began writing a diary. 'Who knows how long we shall really be out here? Seems a good chance from all reports of the campaigns being ended before winter, but all is uncertain.'

The fifth book in Vernon Coleman's bestselling series of diaries. Not for the faint hearted or the politically correct. Nothing like the Bilbury books.

He has written over 100 books which have sold over two million ...

Bugger Off And Leave Me Alone is the third of Vernon Coleman's six diaries. This is NOT a Bilbury book or anything like it. (The first two book the series are Diary of a Disgruntled Man and Just Another Bloody Year and the fourth is The Return of the Disgruntled Man. The fifth is 'Life on the Edge'. The sixth is The Rantings of a Maddened Englishman.' Full of dry humour and irony. None of these books are suitable for the bigoted , the humourless, the overly sensitive or the earnestly politically correct. A book for those who question and laugh at the absurdities of modern life and have ...

When actress and activist Brittany Snow was a teenager, she read an article about another woman’s hardship that made her feel seen and less alone. She carried that story in her back pocket for a long time. This experience was a gift that Brittany then paid forward when she revealed her own experience in a published article. Brittany’s story resonated with a young reader, who kept that story in her back pocket, where it was when the two crossed paths serendipitously.

Before Jon Stewart, Stephen Colbert, Trevor Noah, and Doonesbury, there was Art Buchwald. For more than fifty years, from 1949 to 2006, Art Buchwald’s Pulitzer Prize-winning column of political satire and biting wit made him one of the most widely read American humorists and a popular player in the Washington world of Ethel and Ted Kennedy, Ben Bradlee, and Katharine Graham. Dean Acheson, former U.S. Secretary of State, called Buchwald the “greatest satirist in the English language since Pope and Swift.”
