Sinopse

The Glory of the Trenches is a war memoir by Coningsby Dawson, novelist and soldier of the Canadian Field Artillery. In 1914, Dawson went to Ottawa, and was offered a commission in the Canadian Field Artillery. In July 1916 he was selected, with twenty-four other officers, for immediate service in France. Lieutenant Coningsby Dawson joined the Canadian Expeditionary Force at the front in 1916, and continued in service until the end of World War I. He served in the Somme battlefield at Albert, at Thiepval, at Courcelette, and at the taking of the Regina trench. This book provides a remarkable insight in different aspects of war. It tells of the trench warfare and how it affected participants, but it also tells of the psychological consequences from the combat.

    Soldier of Destiny - Slavery...

    Captain Ulysses S. Grant rose to become general-in-chief of the United States Army in 1864. Was it destiny? Or was he just an ordinary man, opportunistically benefiting from the turmoil of the Civil War to advance to the highest military rank? 
     
     
     
    Soldier of Destiny reveals that Grant always possessed the latent abilities of a skilled commander—and he was able to develop these skills out West without the overwhelming pressure faced by more senior commanders in the Eastern theater at the beginning of the Civil War. 
     
     
     
    From 1861 to 1864, Grant went from being ambivalent about slavery to becoming one of the leading individuals responsible for emancipating the slaves. Soldier of Destiny tells the story of Grant's connection to slavery in far more detail than in previous biographies. 
     
     
     
    Grant's life story is a tale of redemption within the context of his fraught relationships with his antislavery father and his slaveholding wife. This narrative explores the poverty, inequality, and extraordinary vitality of the American West during a crucial time in our nation's history. Writers on Grant have tended to overlook his St. Louis years, even though they are essential for understanding his later triumphs.

    A 300 Million Year Old...

    The thesis of this book is that there was a civilization of intelligent beings existing on Earth over 300 million years ago. I previously collected information to write two books on out of place artifacts (OOPAs) and a book on Giants which evidence shows lived on this Earth millions of years ago. 
     While writing my book titled “The History of Intelligent Life On Earth from Millions of Years Ago Till Present” and generating a timeline on ancient OOPAs found around the Earth, I found an interesting pattern. It turns out that a large number of these objects were from around 300 million years ago mostly in coal mines and seams. 
     All of these objects from the same time period provide good circumstantial evidence that a worldwide civilization existed at that time. Given the millions of years which have elapsed since then we are lucky to find even the few OOPAs we have records of which were preserved in coal and rock. 
     In this book I put together the evidence and do my best to answer questions like: What did the world look like then? What were the attributes and culture of this society? What types of beings were part of this civilization? And other relevant questions. 
     It may be hard to believe that intelligent life existed back then but we need to be objective to follow where the evidence takes us.

    In this powerful and thought-provoking book, author May Francis delves into the complex and deeply entrenched issue of racism, exploring its history and how it continues to manifest in society today. Through personal anecdotes, historical analysis, and a call to action, May Francis urges readers to confront their own biases and actively work towards creating a more equitable and just world. 
     The book begins by examining the roots of racism, tracing its origins back to the transatlantic slave trade and the systemic oppression that has been perpetuated for centuries. May Francis then discusses the various forms of racism that exist today, including institutional racism, microaggressions, and colorism, and how these systems of discrimination continue to impact marginalized communities. 
     But "Antiracism: From Personal Awareness to Collective Action" is not just a book about the problems of racism. It is a call to action, urging readers to take responsibility for their own role in perpetuating or challenging systems of oppression. May Francis provides practical steps for individuals to become antiracist, including learning about and supporting marginalized communities, speaking out against injustice, and advocating for change. 
     This book is a must-read for anyone seeking to understand and dismantle racism in all its forms. It is a powerful call to action for everyone to work towards a more just and equitable society.
