  Benedict Arnold committed treason—for more than two centuries, that's all that most Americans have known about him. 
   
   
   
  Yet Arnold was much more than a turncoat—his achievements during the early years of the Revolutionary War defined him as the most successful soldier of the era. God Save Benedict Arnold tells the gripping story of Arnold's rush of audacious feats—his capture of Fort Ticonderoga, his Maine mountain expedition to attack Quebec, the famous artillery brawl at Valcour Island, the turning-point battle at Saratoga—that laid the groundwork for our independence. 
   
   
   
  Arnold was a superb leader, a brilliant tactician, a supremely courageous military officer. He was also imperfect, disloyal, villainous. One of the most paradoxical characters in American history, and one of the most interesting. God Save Benedict Arnold does not exonerate him for his treason—the stain on his character is permanent. But Kelly's insightful exploration of Arnold's career as a warrior shines a new light on this gutsy, fearless, and enigmatic figure. In the process, the book offers a fresh perspective on the reasons for Arnold's momentous change of heart.

  Waning Crescent - The Rise and...

  A compelling examination of the rise of Islam as a global historical actor Until the nineteenth century, Islam was variously understood as a set of beliefs and practices. But after Muslims began to see their faith as an historical actor on the world stage, they needed to narrate Islam's birth anew as well as to imagine its possible death. Faisal Devji argues that this change, sparked by the crisis of Muslim sovereignty in the age of European empire, provided a way of thinking about agency in a global context: an Islam liberated from the authority of kings and clerics had the potential to represent the human race itself as a newly empirical reality. Ordinary Muslims, now recognized as the privileged representatives of Islam, were freed from traditional forms of Islamic authority. However, their conception of Islam as an impersonal actor in history meant that it could not be defined in either religious or political terms. Its existence as a civilizational and later ideological subject also deprived figures like God and the Prophet of their theological subjectivities while robbing the Muslim community of its political agency. Devji illuminates this history and explores its ramifications for the contemporary Muslim world.

  Classified for 50 years by the CIA - now the hidden truth is revealed. 
  In 1966, The Adam and Eve Story by Chan Thomas shocked the scientific world with a chilling theory: sudden, violent pole shifts have erased civilizations in a single day. Within months, the CIA seized the manuscript, releasing only a heavily redacted 57-page fragment decades later. The rest-over 200 pages-vanished from public view. 
  Adam and Eve and the Great Reset uncovers the full story. From Hapgood's Earth crust displacement theory to modern evidence of global floods, ancient civilizations, and lost knowledge, this investigation connects the dots between archaeology, astronomy, and suppressed history. 
  Drawing on the work of Randall Carlson, Graham Hancock, The Comet Research Group, and The Ethical Skeptic, the book reveals that our ancestors left warnings carved into stone, encoded in myth, and aligned with the stars. Göbekli Tepe, the pyramids of Giza, and more than 175 flood legends all point to the same terrifying truth - Earth's cataclysm cycle is real, and we may be closer to the next reset than we think. 
  Secrets can be hidden. Warnings can be ignored. But the cycle cannot be stopped.

  The legendary tale of Ernest Shackleton's grueling Antarctic expedition, recounted in riveting first-person detail by the captain of HMS Endurance. 
   
   
   
  "You seriously mean to tell me that the ship is doomed?" asked Frank Worsley, commander of the Endurance, stuck impassably in Antarctic ice packs. "What the ice gets," replied Sir Ernest Shackleton, the expedition's unflappable leader, "the ice keeps." It did not, however, get the ship's twenty-five crew members, all of whom survived an eight-hundred-mile voyage across sea, land, and ice to South Georgia, the nearest inhabited island. 
   
   
   
  First published in 1931, Endurance tells the full story of that doomed 1914-1916 expedition and incredible rescue, as well as relating Worsley's further adventures fighting U-boats in the Great War, sailing the equally treacherous waters of the Arctic, and making one final (and successful) assault on the South Pole with Shackleton. It is a tale of unrelenting high adventure and a tribute to one of the most inspiring and courageous leaders of men in the history of exploration.
