  This biography of the Mexican revolutionary examines his rise from soldier to president to his continued influence as Jefe Maximo. Hailing from the border state of Sonora, Plutarco Elías Calles found his calling in the early years of the revolution, quickly rising to national prominence. As president from 1924 to 1928, Calles undertook an ambitious reform program, modernized the financial system, and defended national sovereignty against an interventionist U.S. government. Yet these reforms failed to eradicate underdevelopment, corruption, and social injustice. Moreover, his unyielding campaigns against political enemies and the Catholic Church earned him a reputation as a repressive strongman. After his term as president, Calles continued to exert broad influence as his country's foremost political figure while three weaker presidents succeeded each other in an atmosphere of constant political crisis. He played a significant role in founding a ruling party that reined in power-hungry military leaders and helped workers attain better living conditions. This dynastic party and its successors, including the present-day Partido Revolucionario Institucional (Party of the Institutional Revolution), remained in power until 2000. Through this comprehensive assessment of a quintessential Mexican politician, Buchenau opens an illuminating window into both the Mexican Revolution and contemporary Mexico.

  The definitive account of the Dalton Gang and the most brazen bank heist in history, by the multiple New York Times bestselling author. The Last Outlaws is the thrilling true story of the last of one of the greatest outlaw gang. The dreaded Dalton Gang consisted of three brothers and their rotating cast of colorful accomplices who saw themselves as descended from the legendary James brothers. They soon became legends themselves, beginning their career as common horse thieves before graduating to robbing banks and trains. On October 5, 1892, the Dalton Gang attempted their boldest and bloodiest raid yet: robbing two banks in broad daylight in Coffeyville, Kansas, simultaneously. As Grat, Bob, and Emmett Dalton and Bill Power and Dick Broadwell crossed the plaza to enter the two buildings, the outlaws were recognized by townspeople, who raised the alarm. Citizens armed themselves with shotguns and six-shooters from nearby hardware stores and were locked and loaded when the thieves emerged from the banks. The ensuing gun battle was a lead-filled firefight of epic proportions. As the smoke cleared, eight men lay dead––including four of the five members of the doomed Dalton Gang. For the first time ever, the full story of the Dalton Gang's life of crime, culminating in one of the Wild West’s most violent events, are chronicled in detail––a last gruesome gasp of the age of gunfights.A Macmillan Audio production from St. Martin’s Press.

  It is a practical guide for the practicing psychic discussing psychic ability and provides skills that will assist in enhancing your connection to the larger world. I am a Taoist Master who spent twelve years in a temple. Through the process of overcoming dyslexia, I learned how the mind works at a fundamental level and how to connect with fundamental aspects of reality. Since I was a child, my entire life and reality have been centered around a connection with the world beyond my five senses and the pragmatic definition of the universe. 
  If you have been a practicing psychic or have experienced the psychic connection, I don’t need to tell you that there is much more going on in the world than what our senses or science tell us. This book explores this while giving practical advice and skills that will help to keep you balanced while enhancing your abilities. I speak to you in practical terms because I live my daily life through Energy. It at once reveals my direction and keeps me from harm while imbuing me with abilities I once never thought possible. 
  In the world today, we are polarized in so many fundamental ways. There are many reasons for this, but at a fundamental level, it is because of the cycle that we are in. My goal in life has always been to study reality. I try to look at things as they really are. We are in a period of extreme transformation right now where the things we once believed were unchangeable are no longer that certain. The ground is giving way, and this makes it a very frightening time. It is also a wonderful magical time where things once believed impossible will become possible.
