Summary

Edgar Allan Poe's 'The Journal of Julius Rodman' is a captivating novel that follows the adventurous journey of Julius Rodman as he explores the uncharted territories of the American frontier. The book is written in a unique blend of narrative styles, incorporating elements of travelogue, adventure story, and psychological exploration. Poe's vivid descriptions and eerie atmosphere add a mysterious and haunting quality to the narrative, making it a compelling read for those interested in both American history and gothic literature. Set against the backdrop of the early 19th century, 'The Journal of Julius Rodman' offers a glimpse into a time of exploration and expansion in the United States, while also delving into themes of solitude, ambition, and the unknown.

    For many years, UNITA leader Jonas Savimbi was known for his charisma, charm and brio: he convinced millions of his fellow countrymen and also international statesmen that he was Angola's and the West's best hope for democratic rule.
    More than 30 years after writing a sympathetic biography of Savimbi, Fred Bridgland sets the record straight. Based on new evidence that has come to light, he reveals the rebel leader's murderous legacy. In the 1970s and 1980s, when Angola was a hotbed of the Cold War, few people would have believed that Savimbi was a manipulative and paranoid tyrant prepared to kill anyone he viewed as a threat to his power.
    Tito Chingunji, the brilliant young foreign secretary of Savimbi's UNITA movement, who approached Bridgland to write the original biography in the early 1980s, risked his life to help Bridgland tell the true story of what was going on behind the scenes. This is an account of the intense friendship that developed between the two men, the adventures they shared and the terrifying challenges they faced as they revealed Savimbi's true face.

    A concise, accessible, and engaging guide to the law of treason, written by the nation’s foremost expert on the subject 
     
    The only crime defined in the United States Constitution, treason is routinely described by judges as more heinous than murder. Today the term is regularly thrown around by lawmakers and pundits on both sides of the aisle. But as these heated accusations flood the news cycle, it’s not always clear what the crime of treason truly is, or when it should be prosecuted.  
     
    Drawing on over two decades of research, constitutional law and legal history scholar Carlton Larson takes us on a grand tour of the Treason Clause of the United States Constitution. Despite the Clause’s apparent simplicity, Larson demonstrates that it is a form of constitutional quicksand in which seemingly obvious intuitions are often far off the mark. From the floors of the medieval British Parliament that codified the Statute of Treasons upon which the American law was based to the treason of Benedict Arnold, our nation’s founding traitor, to more recent events, including WWII’s “Tokyo Rose” and the allegations against Edward Snowden and Donald Trump, Larson provides a riveting account of treason law in action.  
     
     
    On Treason is an indispensable guide for anyone who wants to understand this fundamental aspect of our legal system. With this short, accessible look at the law’s history and meaning, Larson clarifies who is actually guilty—and readers won’t need a law degree to understand why. 
    Supplemental enhancement PDF accompanies the audiobook.
