  Was the first empire really started by an abandoned orphan who rose to greatness? 
  Was there an empire older and more important than mighty Egypt? There were a few, but the Akkadian Empire, born out of the cradle of civilization, is thought to be the first. And it was a game-changer. Its creation inspired conquerors and other empire-builders throughout history and spawned two world powers. Its epics, legends, and beliefs influence religions and cultures even today—and make for some darn good listening. 
  Known mostly through clay tablets and stelae, the truth about the Akkadian Empire has intrigued and at times eluded scholars and historians. Victory reliefs made grandiose claims, and propaganda was rampant. Legendary poems countered cautionary tales about arrogance and oppression. We will discuss the men who ruled the empire and the legends that define what we know about them. 
  Some of the treasures you’ll discover about the Akkadian Empire includes:Why the Sumerians were an important part of the empireThe grand wealth and cruelty that accompanied Queen Puabi to her graveHow the first empire-builder the world has ever known rose up from mysterious and legendary originsWhat made Sargon so great?How an empire made up of city-states wanting independence was constantly on the verge of breaking apartThe epic adventures of Gilgamesh—how he slew a forest monster and the tragic consequences for earning the wrath of the godsHow did Naram-sin achieve god-like status?

  "Scipio Africanus: Greater Than Napoleon" throws down a historical gauntlet. Author B.H. Liddell Hart argues that Roman general Scipio, famed for defeating Hannibal, outshines even the mighty Napoleon. Published in 1927, the book dives deep into their strategies, campaigns, and leadership styles.Liddell Hart paints Scipio as a brilliant innovator, adaptable across terrains and enemies, while contrasting him with Napoleon's more singular focus on conquest. Diplomacy and political savvy also receive due attention, aspects sometimes overshadowed in Napoleon's narrative.While the "greater than" claim sparks debate, this book invites readers to ponder leadership, strategy, and the complexities of comparing historical figures. If Roman history, military tactics, or thought-provoking analysis pique your interest, "Scipio Africanus: Greater Than Napoleon" is worth a look, although keeping potential biases and limitations in mind.

  In America we have so much, but there is something missing. There is a widespread fear of what we are becoming. Our new normal is indescribable, yet undeniable. Subtle, yet controlling. We can all feel it but we can’t put our finger on what it is. 
  There is a generalized sense of noise and confusion that has dominated our society for years. It’s as if we’ve become unglued from anything — truth or reality — that has formerly held us together. 
  Driven by the fear of the moment, Letters to Mikey (LTM) is the story of a parent and part time teacher who sits down to write a birthday card for his eighteen-year-old son and is at a loss for words for what is happening to society. So, he drops everything, moves to an island and visits a place that he hasn’t been to for years... the local library. What he finds there is truly astonishing! 
  Written for young adults and teenagers, LTM explains truth in a way that kids can rely on to have less frustration and worry about this crazy world we live in. It provides real reasons for optimism for a brighter future as well as coping mechanisms, tools and strategies to enable a future generation to bring an end to terrible disagreement and hate forever. These aren't false promises. It's possible.  
  Geared to start a movement, LTM seeks to tap into our greatest resource — young people.
