  Great American Socialist The:...

  Eugene Debs

  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.

  In "Redesigning Education: A New Paradigm for Success," author Frank "Bud" O'Lery presents a compelling exploration of the challenges facing humanity in the modern era. Drawing parallels to the metaphorical "Four Horsemen of Apocalypse," O'Lery delves into the pressing issues of overcrowding, authoritarianism, greed, and environmental crises. Urging immediate action, he proposes the establishment of Educational Oases as safe havens for humanity, fostering critical thinking, knowledge, and interpersonal skills. The book envisions these Oases as fortresses of enlightenment, safeguarding arts, knowledge, and the best of human values. O'Lery contends that survival in the face of global challenges necessitates a commitment to logic, evidence, and the sanctity of life. Drawing inspiration from the concept of "the shining city on the hill," the author advocates for a new educational paradigm that addresses societal flaws and cultivates a foundation for future generations. "Redesigning Education" serves as both a discussion and a plan of action, providing a roadmap for navigating troubled times and reshaping the future of humanity.

  During most of the eleven months between D-day and V-E day in Europe, the U S Army was carrying on highly successful offensive operations. As a consequence, the American soldier was buoyed with success, imbued with the idea that his enemy could not strike him a really heavy counterblow, and sustained by the conviction that the war was nearly won. This volume deals with the crucial period of the European campaign conducted in the Belgian Ardennes and Luxembourg, generally known as the Battle of the Bulge.

  África y Roma: La historia y el...

  En su apogeo, el Imperio Romano abarcaba grandes extensiones de Europa occidental, Oriente Medio, Egipto y el norte de África, y aunque mucha gente conoce la influencia y el legado de Roma en Europa y Oriente Medio, a menudo se sabe menos de los asentamientos romanos en la costa mediterránea del norte de áfrica. No obstante, esta fue una zona que produjo varios emperadores (incluidos los únicos emperadores negros), algunas de las ciudades más sofisticadas del imperio y ruinas romanas que ofrecen algunas de las mejores pruebas del modo de vida romano que se pueden encontrar en cualquier parte del mundo.  
  	Aparte de la naturaleza complicada de los sistemas administrativos en evolución en la zona, otro reto importante para los investigadores modernos del periodo romano en la historia del norte de África es que el entorno natural era muy diferente al actual. Se suele suponer que la región solo era fértil en la costa y que el interior no podía proporcionar los recursos necesarios para mantener poblaciones numerosas y ricas. Sin embargo, en la antigüedad, el norte de África era una región fértil, y los científicos creen que la vasta zona de praderas escarpadas que cubría la mayor parte de lo que hoy es el desierto del Sáhara comenzó a secarse hace unos 5000 años, y que el proceso de transformación de las praderas en desiertos fue lento. Aunque existe un considerable debate sobre el tiempo que duró el proceso y si las técnicas agrícolas a pequeña escala utilizadas en la región contribuyeron al proceso de desecación, está claro que la zona alrededor de Cartago, por ejemplo, tenía una amplia extensión de tierras bien cultivadas, y que dicho cultivo se prolongó hasta bien entrada la Edad Media.
