Sinopsis

In "With George Washington into the Wilderness," Edwin L. Sabin embarks on a vivid exploration of American frontier life during the 18th century, intricately weaving historical fact with imaginative narrative. The book details George Washington's formative years as a young surveyor, showcasing his ventures into the untamed wilderness of the Ohio Valley. Sabin's narrative style is marked by rich, descriptive passages that evoke the frontier's rugged beauty and peril, making the reader feel as though they are traversing the diverse landscapes alongside Washington. This work serves not only as a historical account but also as an artistic interpretation of the trials and tribulations faced by early American pioneers, situated within the broader context of the colonial era's expansionism and conflict with Native American tribes. Edwin L. Sabin, known for his fascination with American history and the spirit of adventure, was motivated to write this book due to his commitment to portraying the influential figures and formative events of the United States. His background and experience in examining American frontier narratives lend authenticity and depth to the characters and events he describes, allowing readers to appreciate the complexities of Washington's journey and leadership. "With George Washington into the Wilderness" is essential for readers interested in early American history, adventure literature, and the legacy of George Washington. Sabin's engaging prose and careful research illuminate the challenges and triumphs of a pivotal moment in American history, making it a compelling read for history enthusiasts and casual readers alike.

    One of the most popular and widely read books of the Middle Ages, Physiologus contains allegories of beasts, stones, and trees both real and imaginary, infused by their anonymous author with the spirit of Christian moral and mystical teaching.  Accompanied by an introduction that explains the origins, history, and literary value of this curious text, this volume also reproduces twenty woodcuts from the 1587 version. Originally composed in the fourth century in Greek, and translated into dozens of versions through the centuries, Physiologus will delight readers with its ancient tales of ant-lions, centaurs, and hedgehogs—and their allegorical significance. “An elegant little book . . . still diverting to look at today. . . . The woodcuts reproduced from the 1587 Rome edition are alone worth the price of the book.”—Raymond A. Sokolov, New York Times Book Review

    We all want the power and motivation to create change in our lives. But how to get that in a stumbling dance of one step forward and two steps back? Negative emotions run rampant in many people’s lives today; a reality that feels like a shrink wrap of suffering. Popular fallback “solutions” of performance-based goals and tools focus on extrinsic rewards like fame, wealth, or winning. But overuse of those rewards doesn’t work for the long term and in fact weakens our confidence and motivation over time, leaving us vulnerable to failure and shame. 
    It doesn’t have to be that way. Through three decades of researching and tracking such universal struggles to change our behavior, Dr. Kyra Bobinet unveils the way out, using novel neuroscience research on a compelling new brain area, the habenula. In this book, she reveals the habenula’s powerful role in killing our motivation and causing anxiety and depression and offers a foolproof way to escape its clutches.

    Six months ago, I had never heard the name Eugene Debs. Today, I believe he is one of the greatest orators in history, ranking alongside Napoleon, Robespierre, Lincoln, and Cicero. More importantly, he was a genuine hero, a man to believe in and follow into the fires of hell. His legacy has been unrightly ignored by the same powers that imprisoned and harassed him over his life. He should be an icon, but is unremembered, for reasons he himself goes into. However, there is one key difference between Debs and these other orators: every one of the others fought for empire, or glory, or democracy – but Debs fought for the working man’s right to a decent existence.A railroad man from 15, he founded then turned against the unions as they became tools of the owners, and won 3% of the presidential vote in 1920 despite being a) the Socialist candidate and b) in prison for sedition. The two major speeches missing from this volume can be found in the prior collection, being “You Railroad Men”, whose content is covered in other speeches herein, and “Statement to the Court”, which is summarised in part 4 of Scott Nearing’s analysis.
