  NATIONAL BESTSELLER  
  “Lichtman has written what may be the most important book of the year.”  —The Hill 
  What are the ranges and limitations of presidential authority? What are the standards of truthfulness that a president must uphold? What will it take to impeach Donald J. Trump? Professor Allan J. Lichtman, who has correctly forecasted thirty years of presidential outcomes, answers these questions, and more, in The Case for Impeachment—a deeply convincing argument for impeaching the 45th president of the United States.  
  In the fall of 2016, Allan J. Lichtman made headlines when he predicted that Donald J. Trump would defeat the heavily favored Democrat, Hillary Clinton, to win the presidential election. Now, in clear, nonpartisan terms, Lichtman lays out the reasons Congress could remove Trump from the Oval Office: his ties to Russia before and after the election, the complicated financial conflicts of interest at home and abroad, and his abuse of executive authority. 
  The Case for Impeachment also offers a fascinating look at presidential impeachments throughout American history, including the often-overlooked story of Andrew Johnson’s impeachment, details about Richard Nixon’s resignation, and Bill Clinton’s hearings. Lichtman shows how Trump exhibits many of the flaws (and more) that have doomed past presidents. As the Nixon Administration dismissed the reporting of Bob Woodward and Carl Bernstein as “character assassination” and “a vicious abuse of the journalistic process,” Trump has attacked the “dishonest media,” claiming, “the press should be ashamed of themselves.” 
  Historians, legal scholars, and politicians alike agree: we are in politically uncharted waters—the durability of our institutions is being undermined and the public’s confidence in them is eroding, threatening American democracy itself.  
  Most citizens—politics aside—want to know where the country is headed. Lichtman argues, with clarity and power, that for Donald Trump’s presidency, smoke has become fire.

  Knights and Chivalry - The...

  Chivalry, a code of conduct and a set of ideals, emerged during the early Middle Ages, forming the backbone of the knightly order and defining the conduct of warriors across Europe. The origins of chivalry can be traced back to the feudal system, where the role of the knight was essential in maintaining the social and political structure of the time. Knights were initially seen as mounted warriors serving a lord or king, and their duties were deeply intertwined with the political and military landscapes of medieval society. 
  The concept of chivalry grew from various sources, including the martial traditions of early medieval Europe, the influence of the church, and the rising importance of courtly love in literature. Early codes of conduct, though not uniform, emphasized qualities such as bravery, loyalty, and honor. These ideals were primarily martial in nature, as knights were expected to protect their lords and lands from invaders. Over time, however, the influence of Christianity began to shape the code of chivalry, adding elements of piety, mercy, and the protection of the weak. 
  One of the key influences in the development of chivalry was the rise of feudalism. As the Roman Empire fell and Europe entered a period of fragmentation, the feudal system became the dominant form of social and economic organization. Lords granted land to vassals in exchange for military service, and knights became essential for the protection of these lands. This system encouraged the development of a warrior class that was bound by loyalty and honor, principles that would later become central to chivalric codes.

  Liberalism and Its Discontents

  Francis Fukuyama

  An audiobook about the challenges to liberalism from the right and the left by the bestselling author of The Origins of Political Order.Classical liberalism is in a state of crisis. Developed in the wake of Europe’s wars over religion and nationalism, liberalism is a system for governing diverse societies, which is grounded in fundamental principles of equality and the rule of law. It emphasizes the rights of individuals to pursue their own forms of happiness free from encroachment by government.It's no secret that liberalism didn't always live up to its own ideals. In America, many people were denied equality before the law. Who counted as full human beings worthy of universal rights was contested for centuries, and only recently has this circle expanded to include women, African Americans, LGBTQ+ people, and others. Conservatives complain that liberalism empties the common life of meaning. As the renowned political philosopher Francis Fukuyama shows in Liberalism and Its Discontents, the principles of liberalism have also, in recent decades, been pushed to new extremes by both the right and the left: neoliberals made a cult of economic freedom, and progressives focused on identity over human universality as central to their political vision. The result, Fukuyama argues, has been a fracturing of our civil society and an increasing peril to our democracy.In this clear account of our current political discontents, Fukuyama offers an essential defense of a revitalized liberalism for the twenty-first century.A Macmillan Audio production from Farrar, Straus and Giroux.
