  In the aftermath of World War II, Germany lay in ruins - its cities bombed, its people starving, its identity fractured. In German Autumn, Swedish journalist Stig Dagerman delivers a raw and unfiltered account of life in occupied Germany during the fall of 1946. 
  Through a series of deeply personal and vividly detailed reports, Dagerman goes beyond political narratives, capturing the human cost of war with compassion and insight. He walks through decimated cities, speaks with civilians, former soldiers, and refugees, and exposes the moral and physical struggles of a defeated nation. Neither excusing nor condemning, he presents an honest, haunting portrait of a society grappling with guilt, survival, and the slow process of rebuilding. 
  First published in 1947, German Autumn remains one of the most powerful works of war reportage - an urgent and poetic reflection on the consequences of destruction, the resilience of humanity, and the role of a writer in times of crisis. 
  A gripping and essential historical document—perfect for readers of war journalism, postwar history, and political literature.

  “Citizenship in a Republic” is the title of a speech given by Theodore Roosevelt at the Sorbonne in Paris, France, on April 23, 1910. In the speech Roosevelt discusses the attributes required of its citizens and leaders to sustain a thriving national character, not least of which are a high moral character and energetic engagement. He has harsh words for those who act purely in self-interest, who cause division, and who sit on the sidelines while others do the heavy lifting. The address is also known as “The Man in the Arena” speech owing to a notable passage that is often quoted:“It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly, so that his place shall never be with those cold and timid souls who neither know victory nor defeat.”Numerous politicians, athletes, speakers and others have turned to the passage for inspiration. Incoming freshman at the U.S. Naval Academy are required to memorize the passage. NBA champion LeBron James has the “Man in the Arena” written on his shoes.

  The Crisis of the Twelfth...

  Thomas N. Bisson

  Medieval civilization came of age in thunderous events like the Norman Conquest and the First Crusade. Power fell into the hands of men who imposed coercive new lordships in quest of nobility. Rethinking a familiar history, Thomas Bisson explores the circumstances that impelled knights, emperors, nobles, and churchmen to infuse lordship with social purpose.Bisson traces the origins of European government to a crisis of lordship and its resolution. King John of England was only the latest and most conspicuous in a gallery of bad lords who dominated the populace instead of ruling it. Yet, it was not so much the oppressed people as their tormentors who were in crisis. The Crisis of the Twelfth Century suggests what these violent people—and the outcries they provoked—contributed to the making of governments in kingdoms, principalities, and towns.

  Planes Trains and Toilet Doors:...

  ‘’F *** ing brilliant. I would describe it as like a bag of political nuts – moreish and fabulously salty’ JOE LYCETT  
  A TIMES BOOK OF THE YEAR 
  Planes, Trains and Toilet Doors is an entertaining and original romp through the highs and lows of British political history and the unlikely locations that have decided our national fate. 
  Forget Westminster bust-ups and PMQs, some of the key events that have shaped modern British politics happened not in the cloisters of parliament or Downing Street’s many corridors of power, but in car parks, village halls and seaside resorts where the mundane have played host to the mighty. From Pitt the Younger’s Putney Heath duel to finding Margaret Thatcher a voice coach on a train, Harold Wilson’s ‘Scilly’ season holidays to John Major’s dental appointment clearing his path to No10 – these (and many more) are the places where chance meetings, untimely deaths and snap, sometimes daft, decisions changed the course of politics. 
  Matt Chorley has spent almost two decades covering Westminster, interviewing prime ministers, mocking ministers and chronicling the serious, and sometimes unintentionally absurd, events which act as unlikely turning points in the direction of a nation. Illustrated by award-winning political cartoonist Morten Morland, Planes, Trains and Toilet Doors combines Matt’s insider-knowledge, smart analysis and detailed research with his background in comedy to create an hilarious history of how politics actually happens. 
  Planes, Trains and Toilet Doors by Matt Chorley is a humorous and insightful commentary on the unexpected events and locations that have shaped Britain's political landscape. This non-fiction biography, which spans from the 21st century to the times of Pitt the Younger, is a top pick for anyone interested in the often absurd process of politics. 
  For fans of Rory Stewart (The Places In Between), David Kynaston (A Northern Wind), Chris Bryant (Code of Conduct), Tom Holland (Athelstan), and Wes Streeting (One Boy, Two Bills and a Fry Up).
