Synopsis

In "South Carolina and Georgia: Rise and Progress of the Colonies," Alexander Hewatt offers a comprehensive examination of the early colonial experiences of South Carolina and Georgia, focusing on their socio-political developments and economic foundations. Written in a clear and engaging prose style characteristic of the 18th century, the book deftly intertwines historical narratives with geographic and demographic insights, positioning these colonies within the broader context of British imperialism. Hewatt meticulously details the interactions between European settlers and Indigenous populations, highlighting both cooperation and conflict, and provides thorough accounts of the colonies' logistical challenges and aspirations. Alexander Hewatt, a Scottish transplant to the American colonies, was profoundly influenced by his surroundings and the socio-political dynamics of early America. His personal experiences as a settler informed his observations about colonial society, providing a unique perspective that blends firsthand knowledge with historical analysis. As an observer and participant in the colonial landscape, Hewatt's insights are both rich and critical, offering readers a window into the complexities of colonial life and governance. This book is an essential read for historians and enthusiasts of early American history, as it presents a nuanced understanding of the formation of two pivotal colonies. Hewatt's work not only preserves an essential narrative of colonial America but also invites readers to consider the intricate factors that shaped their development, making it a valuable addition to the library of anyone interested in exploring the roots of American society.

    'Sometimes even to live is an act of courage.'
    
    A collection of profound meditations on morality, life and death, from one of the primary proponents of ancient Stoic philosophy: Seneca.
    
    Despite having been written at the turn of the earliest millennium, Seneca's 'On' essays remain extraordinary in their offer of insightful wisdom and practical advice on how to live a life worth living. Including writings on anger, providence, peace of mind, the shortness of life, grief and more, Seneca's words are unparalleled in their perceptiveness – so much so that they remain relevant even today. This audiobook edition is beautifully narrated by Malk Williams.
    Seneca (4 – 65 AD) was a Stoic philosopher, dramatist and statesman. Trained in rhetoric and philosophy, he became advisor to Roman emperor, Nero, until he was accused of plotting to assassinate him. He was executed via forced suicide, but his literary works – largely considered staple texts for ancient Stoicism – still live on today.

    On November 4, 1979, "student" supporters of the Ayatollah seized the U.S. Embassy with over sixty hostages. Although the Cold War was in full swing, the Iran hostage crisis was a watershed for the United States. 
     
     
     
    Detachment A had been established in Berlin early in the Cold War to harass and delay any Soviet military advance west. This Special unit trained relentlessly for every aspect of unconventional warfare, and was later assigned a second mission of counterterrorism. 
     
     
     
    The plan for Operation Eagle Claw, as it became known, was extremely complex. The first stage was intelligence gathering—no mean feat as most of the CIA's capabilities in the country had been eliminated. With operatives trained in intelligence work, fluent in many languages, and adept at blending in, Det A took on the advanced recon of the targets. Then, when Delta Force admitted that it could only manage the assault of the Embassy, Det A volunteered to rescue the three Americans at the Foreign Ministry. 
     
     
     
    Veteran and historian James Stejskal details Det A's unique and integral role in Operation Eagle Claw, based upon firsthand accounts of the operatives involved.
