Summary

In "The Real Pirates of the Caribbean (Complete Edition: Volume 1&2)," Captain Charles Johnson embarks on a captivating exploration of the infamous pirates who roamed the Caribbean seas during the Golden Age of Piracy. Through a rich narrative that intertwines historical accounts with vivid storytelling, Johnson provides readers with an authentic portrayal of these rogue adventurers. His use of detailed character sketches, arresting anecdotes, and well-researched maritime history situates the reader in a world where treachery and treasure coalesced amid the tumult of the 17th and 18th centuries. This literary work not only entertains but also serves as an invaluable resource for understanding the societal dynamics and cultural implications of piracy in colonial times. Captain Charles Johnson, an enigmatic figure whose true identity remains subject to speculation, is often regarded as one of the foremost chroniclers of maritime lore. His extensive knowledge of nautical life, combined with his access to firsthand accounts from sailors and outlaws, enriched his narrative, lending a gritty authenticity to his depiction of pirates such as Blackbeard and Bartholomew Roberts. Johnson's background as a sailor himself likely informed his unique insights into the pirate code and the allure of the high seas, evoking both fascination and fear. "The Real Pirates of the Caribbean" is an essential read for those captivated by the allure of the sea and the complexities of human nature. Scholars, history enthusiasts, and casual readers alike will find Johnson's vivid portrayals and meticulous research to be a treasure trove of knowledge and entertainment. Delve into these volumes to uncover the real stories behind the legendary figures who shaped the mythos of piracy, and experience the thrill of adventure through the eyes of one who dared to chronicle it.

    The Capitalist's Worst Nightmare Come True: The Crucifixion of Capital: 
    In this break-through multiple-award winning book, Richard exposes the lies, greed, corruption and inequality upon which the capitalist system is built. We have the power to turn the world upside down and free ourselves from the illusions of capitalism forever. 
    "Richard is an ‘outside the box’ thinker and TIME-EQUITY is a bold pathway of change." James B. Fuller, World Alliance for Planetary Health 
    “As time unfolds, it becomes increasingly visible that many of our systems have outlived their purpose. Aligned with our true human spirit, a shift occurs calling for a new approach to value. Richard shows what this could look like.” Nicolette DeVidar, TV Host & Founder, urban2050 
    This book shows how fragile the monetary system is and the elite do not want you to know that. Richard has uncovered their secrets. From mechanic to an exemplary career in the financial industry his self-made billionaire partner told him that his greatest asset is his ability to see things differently because he doesn't have an MBA. His "unconventional" methods were featured in a national financial magazine and TV show. He learned that the majority have to fail financially for the few to win. 
    The thrust of this book is to show us that there are possibilities beyond what we’ve come to accept as our reality; this comes from an unending drive to imagine beyond the conventional wisdom. TIME-EQUITY is the realistic alternative we’ve been waiting for to usher in an age of equality, true democracy, a sustainable planet and quite possibly the first era of peacefulness amongst humanity to work together in realizing our unlimited potential.

    New York State was a center of industry during World War II. New York aviation companies designed many of the greatest combat aircraft of the era, and bustling armies of women and men helped quickly churn them out by the thousands. More than one fourth of all US warplanes came from New York drawing boards during the war. These planes saw combat service everywhere, holding the line in the deserts of North Africa and flying from aircraft carriers plying the vast Pacific Ocean. Others operated over the frozen tundra of Alaska and Siberia. New York aircraft flew tons of fuel, ammunition, and supplies over the treacherous Himalayan Mountains into China, relentlessly hounded enemy submarines and ships, and battered Axis strongholds all the way to victory.

    Reading Confederate Monuments addresses the urgent and vital need for scholars, educators, and the general public to be able to read and interpret the literal and cultural Confederate monuments pervading life in the contemporary United States.  
    
    The literary and cultural studies scholars featured in this collection engage many different archives and methods, demonstrating how to read literal Confederate monuments as texts and in the context of the assortment of literatures that produced and celebrated them. They further explore how to read the literary texts advancing and contesting Confederate ideology in the US cultural imaginary—then and now—as monuments in and of themselves. On top of that, the essays published here lay bare the cultural and pedagogical work of Confederate monuments and counter-monuments—divulging how and what they teach their readers as communal and yet contested narratives—thereby showing why the persistence of Confederate monuments matters greatly to local and national notions of racial justice and belonging. In doing so, this collection illustrates what critics of US literature and culture can offer to ongoing scholarly and public discussions about Confederate monuments and memory.
    
    Brought to audio through new AI narrative technology, Reading Confederate Monuments teaches us that even as we remove, relocate, and recontextualize the physical symbols of the Confederacy dotting the US landscape, the complicated histories, cultural products, and pedagogies of Confederate ideology remain embedded in the national consciousness. To disrupt and potentially dismantle these enduring narratives alongside the statues themselves, we must be able to recognize, analyze, and resist them in US life. The pieces in this collection position us to think deeply about how and why we should continue that work.
