  The Eastern Han Dynasty: A History of China, PART ONE takes you on an unforgettable journey through one of China's most transformative eras. Once fractured by war, the Han Empire finds hope in Liu Xiu—a noble who rises through chaos to become Emperor Guangwu of Han. But claiming the throne is only the beginning. To rebuild an empire torn apart, he must outmaneuver rivals, crush rebellions, and restore order. 
  From the fall of the Chimei Army to the eruption of the Three Rebellions, Liu Xiu's reign is marked by endless trials. Allies become threats, and loyalty is tested—especially for Wei Xiao, a trusted officer with dangerous ambitions. Meanwhile, the empire expands into Longyou and sets its sights on resource-rich Shu, where political intrigue runs deep. 
  Military legends like General Ma Yuan rise, shaping China's future with brilliant campaigns. As peace returns, loyal ministers help rebuild the government. But power shifts within the court, and when the crown prince unexpectedly steps down, the influential Yin Family begins to dominate the throne's inner circle. 
  A new era begins with Emperor Ming, who faces his own battles—reforms, alliances, and unrest. Yet Han is no longer limited by borders. Ban Chao’s bold expeditions to the Western Regions spark a wave of imperial ambition, paving the way for the rise of a new conqueror who will take Han’s influence farther than ever before. 
  This is not just a chronicle of events—it's a sweeping epic of ambition, war, strategy, and legacy. If you’re drawn to tales of empire-building, battlefield brilliance, and court intrigue, The Eastern Han Dynasty: Part One is a journey you won’t want to miss.

  Tuskegee Airmen and Montford...

  The United States has no shortage of famous military units, from the Civil War’s Iron Brigade to the 101st Airborne, but one would be hard pressed to find one that had to go through as many hardships off the field as the Tuskegee Airmen, a group of African American fighter pilots who overcame Jim Crow at home and official segregation in the military to serve their country in the final years of World War II. In fact, it required a concerted effort by groups such as the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People (NAACP) and the extreme circumstances brought about by World War II that the military eventually decided to establish the “Tuskegee Experiment.” 
  The black crews trained at Tuskegee before being sent overseas, and even then, they faced discrimination from those who didn’t trust them to do more than escort bombers flown by white pilots. However, as the men proved their worth in the heat of battle, some of the squadrons’ red markings helped them earn the nickname “Red Tails,” and their track record was so good that eventually the white pilots of American bombers wanted to fly with them. As Tuskegee airman Roscoe Brown eloquently put it, “They have a saying that excellence is the antidote to prejudice; so, once you show you can do it, some of the barriers will come down.” 
  In the summer of 1942, the first group of African American recruits stepped off a bus into the pine woods of North Carolina, bound for an experiment the Marine Corps had long vowed never to attempt. Their destination - Montford Point, a hastily constructed satellite to the new Camp Lejeune - was more than a training ground. It was a compromise with democracy, a segregated doorway into an institution that had defined itself for generations by who could not enter. The Corps’ exclusivity had a racial edge, as the Marines had barred black men outright from 1798 all the way up the start of the Second World War.

  Andrew Jackson - Old Hickory in...

  Although Andrew Jackson gained notoriety as a rakish young man, religion's influence on him ebbed and flowed as he established himself as part of the South's planter elite. With his devout wife, Rachel, he attended church and knew his Bible and religious subjects well, and while his determination to preserve his reputation involved him in numerous personal conflicts—including a duel that led to his killing a rival—he blended the principles of the antebellum South's honor-based culture with his belief in a traditional, orthodox version of Christianity. Likewise, he easily reconciled his religion with his ownership of slaves and his advocacy of Native American removal, and while he equated his enemies with the forces of evil, he always attributed his military and political accomplishments to the blessings of Providence. As he aged, Jackson became more devout, but he never experienced a dramatic conversion—contradicting the expectations of the leading revivalists of his era's Second Great Awakening—and he consistently promoted religious liberty and separation of church and state as core republican principles. Ultimately, Jackson's faith reflected a version of Christianity widespread in his era, and his frequent appeals for divine guidance and for God's blessing on his nation further encouraged the development of an American civil religion.
