  The Creole Rebellion tells the suspenseful story of a successful mutiny on board the slave ship Creole. En route for a New Orleans slave-auction block in November 1841, nineteen captives mutinied, killing one man and injuring several others. After taking control of the vessel, mutineer Madison Washington forced the crewmen to sail to the Bahamas. Despite much local hysteria upon their arrival, all of the 135 slaves aboard the ship won their freedom there. 
   
   
   
  The revolt significantly fueled and amplified the slave debate within a divided nation that was already hurtling toward a Civil War. While this is a book about the United States confronting the ugly and tumultuous issue of slavery, it is also about the 135 enslaved men and women who were unwilling to take their oppression any longer and rose up to free themselves in a bloody fight. Part history, part adventure, and part legal drama, Bruce Chadwick chronicles the most successful slave revolt in the pages of American history.

  The Will to Conquer: Mastering Power, Strategy, and the Art of War is a manifesto for those who refuse to be ruled. Power is not a privilege granted by fate—it is seized by those with the vision, discipline, and ruthlessness to take it. 
  In this book, A.A. Castor dismantles the myths of fairness, morality, and justice, exposing them for what they truly are: illusions designed to keep the weak in submission. Drawing from the principles of history's greatest strategists—Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, Nietzsche, and beyond—The Will to Conquer explores the foundations of dominance, manipulation, and control. 
  This book reveals: 
  ✔ The Laws of Power – How rulers impose their will and eliminate opposition. 
  ✔ The Art of Strategy – Why battles are won before they are fought. 
  ✔ The Psychology of a Ruler – How to think beyond morality and hesitation. 
  ✔ The Mastery of Deception – Why perception is more powerful than reality. 
  ✔ The Will to Power – How to overcome fear, doubt, and self-imposed limitations. 
  Power does not wait for the patient, nor does it reward those who seek validation. It belongs to those who demand it. If you are ready to break free from the illusions of the weak and forge your own destiny, this book will show you the way. 
  "There is no universal law—only the law of those strong enough to impose it."

  A History of Some of China’s...

  China has always fascinated outsiders, much in the same way that distant light fascinates someone looking down a dark road. It is both familiar and mysterious, ancient and new, and fully understanding it seems to always remain just out of reach. From the Great Wall to the ancient teachings of Confucius, China’s natural and man-made wonders have been topics of interest among Westerners since the Middle Ages and the pursuit of trade routes both by land and sea, amazing Marco Polo and 19th century British expeditions in similar ways despite the passage of several centuries between them. 
  The Great Wall of China is perhaps the wonder of the world that has most captured the human imagination, and as the quotes about it indicate, the wall has acquired special significance even outside of China. The places and ways in which it has taken hold vary greatly, but one thing is certain: the Great Wall of China is as amazing as it is mysterious, and it’s as mundane as it is magical. Naturally, the Wall has become the most recognizable symbol of China, used for both aggrandizement and criticism. Nationalists see it as a symbol of China's peaceful nature, engineering capability, and historic longevity, while detractors see the Wall as the embodiment of China's backwardness, closed-mindedness, and hubris. Though the wall can symbolize all of these things about China, it is important to remember that the many long walls. upon some of which the current landmark was constructed, were put up by specific people for specific purposes. 
  People across the world were excited when it was revealed in 1974 that archaeologists had uncovered a new and amazing find: an underground army consisting of thousands of clay soldiers, still standing at their posts despite being over 2,000 years old. In addition to the remarkable feats of craftsmanship and the size and scale of the Terracotta Army, modern people could not quite wrap their minds around.

  The Neoliberal Revolution - How...

  Neoliberalism is a term widely used to describe a set of economic policies and ideas that emphasize the importance of free markets, deregulation, privatization, and limited government intervention. Emerging in the mid-20th century, neoliberalism represented a distinct shift away from the welfare state and Keynesian economics, which had dominated Western economies in the post-World War II era. At its core, neoliberalism advocates for the belief that markets, if left to operate freely, will create wealth, drive economic growth, and improve human well-being. This chapter introduces the key tenets of neoliberal thought and traces its rise to prominence. 
  The intellectual origins of neoliberalism can be traced back to economists and thinkers such as Friedrich Hayek, Milton Friedman, and Ludwig von Mises, who were critical of state intervention in the economy. They argued that government efforts to regulate markets, redistribute wealth, and promote social welfare were inefficient and counterproductive. Instead, they believed that economic freedom, unencumbered by regulation or state control, would lead to more prosperous societies. These ideas gained traction in the 1970s when the world was facing economic stagnation, inflation, and high unemployment, a period often referred to as the “stagflation” crisis. 
  As a response to these challenges, neoliberalism became the intellectual and policy framework that justified sweeping changes in global economic practices. It was championed by leaders such as British Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and U.S. President Ronald Reagan, who implemented reforms based on neoliberal principles. These included reducing taxes, privatizing state-owned industries, cutting social welfare programs, and embracing global free trade. The goal was to increase individual freedom and market efficiency by minimizing the role of the state in economic affairs.
