Synopsis

In "The Influence of Sea Power upon the French Revolution and Empire: 1793-1812," Alfred Thayer Mahan meticulously examines the pivotal role maritime strategy played in shaping the geopolitical landscape of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. Through a combination of rigorous historical analysis and eloquent prose, Mahan investigates how naval power influenced the French Revolution and subsequent Napoleonic wars, emphasizing the interplay between sea domination and national policy. His argument is underpinned by a comprehensive examination of naval battles, logistics, and colonial ambitions, marking a significant contribution to the literature on military strategy and international relations during a transformative period in European history. Alfred Thayer Mahan, a U.S. naval officer and historian, is renowned for his theories concerning the importance of sea power in global politics. His career, which spanned influential roles in naval education and strategy, fueled his understanding of maritime dynamics as integral to national strength. Mahan's scholarship was shaped by his experiences in the late 19th century, a time when the world began to recognize the strategic value of naval supremacy in imperialistic endeavors. This scholarly work is an essential read for anyone interested in military history, naval strategy, or the dynamics of revolution and empire. Mahan's insights will leave readers contemplating the enduring significance of sea power in shaping world events and the ongoing relevance of maritime strategy in contemporary geopolitics.

    Lieutenant-General James Longstreet, commander of the First Corps of the Army of Northern Virginia, was a brilliant tactician and strategist. Prior to the Civil War there were many technological developments, of which the rifled musket and cannon, rail transport, and the telegraph were a few. Longstreet adapted to these technological changes and the disparity between the belligerents making recommendations on how the war should be fought. Unfortunately, his advice was not heeded and given the weight it deserved. In contrast to many other southern generals, Longstreet advocated for defensive warfare, using entrenchments and trying to maneuver the enemy to assault his position, conserving manpower, resources, and supplies. 
     
     
     
    Longstreet was a pragmatic and methodical general and had his suggestions been utilized there would have been a better outcome for the South. Many historians and biographers have misunderstood Longstreet and his motives, not focusing on the total picture. This work offers a fresh and unique perspective on Lieutenant-General James Longstreet and the Civil War. This narrative takes a new viewpoint of the Civil War and the generals who tailored their designs to pursue the war, analyzes Longstreet's views of the generals and the tactics and strategy they employed, and examines why Longstreet proposed and urged a new type of warfare.

    Did you know that Western civilization has influenced the lives of almost everyone alive today? 
    What do you know about Western civilization? It might sound like a funny question to ask, but a lot of people don’t realize how much the West has impacted the world. The values of Western civilization have influenced laws, people’s sense of individuality, and even our morals. 
    This audiobook will trace Western civilization back to its roots. In this epic quest, we head all the way back to Greece when Greek philosophers like Socrates and Plato pondered the very meaning of life. Explore the depths of knowledge that were probed by Greek schools of thought, such as the Stoics and the Cynics. 
    Was it better to stoically grin and bear the troubles of life as the Stoics advised, or was it better to simply shrug one’s shoulders and declare everything to be pointless, stupid, and absurd? 
    And in the middle of these philosophers’ quest, a missionary from Judea named Paul of Tarsus stepped in to spread the “good news” of the Gospels. Christianity and other schools of thought converged, and the Roman Empire helped to facilitate the spread of these ideas far and wide. Soon, the foundations for Western civilization had been firmly established. 
    These ideas would later undergo renaissances, reformations, and scientific revolutions, but the basic foundation has remained in place. Here, in this audiobook, we explore all of the fascinating aspects of the great framework upon which our modern Western civilization rests. 
    In this audiobook, you will learn the following:Greek philosophical and scientific discoveriesThe convergence of Greco-Roman and Christian beliefsHow Western civilization transformed during the Middle AgesAnd much more!

    The book Coming Together provides hope and an action plan for us to work together and fix many of the problems in our country. 
    The U.S. used to provide affordable healthcare, and education. Our people supported workers' rights. We used to invest in our people. We are being told that we can't do those things, and gaslit into thinking that the crippling healthcare and educational debt being forced upon is our fault. 
    Too many times we have used fear to dehumanize people because of the color of their skin, or sexual preference. 
    Many of our politicians gain tremendous wealth and power by keeping us divided and hopeless. 
    We have fought hard to conquer these problems before, and we can do it again. We can work together towards a more honest and just society. We can repair the damage done to our society from the lies we have been told.
