Sinopsis

"Frederick Douglass: Collected Works" compiles the profound writings of one of America's foremost abolitionists and reformers. This collection encompasses Douglass's powerful speeches, autobiographies, and essays, which together illuminate his eloquent advocacy for civil rights, equality, and justice. The literary style is marked by impassioned rhetoric and a compelling narrative voice, reflecting Douglass's own journey from slavery to prominence. His keen insights into the moral and social conditions of 19th-century America provide an invaluable context for understanding the historical significance of his work and the evolution of the abolitionist movement. Frederick Douglass, born into slavery in 1818, was a self-educated orator and writer whose personal experiences informed his passionate critique of slavery and racism. His remarkable ability to articulate the injustices faced by African Americans stemmed from his own harrowing journey towards freedom and self-realization. Douglass's life story, marked by resilience and intellectual brilliance, positioned him not only as a spokesperson for the oppressed but also as a significant figure in American literature and history. This collection is essential for anyone seeking to grasp the complexities of America's past and the fight for social justice. Douglass's insights remain relevant today, making "Frederick Douglass: Collected Works" a vital resource for scholars, students, and anyone interested in the ongoing struggle for equality.

    Most business books promise shortcuts to success. This one delivers something better: a battle-tested blueprint for scaling, selling, and surviving as an entrepreneur & business leader. 
    In Failing My Way to Success, Phillip Cantrell takes you inside four decades of founding and leading various businesses, some of which grew to hundreds of millions in annual revenue. Along the way, he shares hard-won lessons from failure, the mindset of resilience, and the strategic frameworks that turn mistakes into momentum. Inside you’ll discover: 
    •	How an average student became a successful entrepreneur, founding or controlling 10 separate businesses. Many built from scratch. 
    •	A mergers & acquisitions roadmap: from preparing clean P&Ls and balance sheets for due diligence, to negotiating letter of intent (LOI) terms, to navigating earn-out periods and post-sale integration. 
    •	Real-world real estate business strategies and scaling a brokerage with discipline. 
    •	Why knowing your cash position daily and running on a “zero accounts receivables” model can protect your business from collapse. 
    •	The often-overlooked realities of life after selling a business—how founders stay engaged during earn-outs, protect their legacy, and rediscover purpose once the deal is done. 
    •	The four cornerstones of sustainable leadership: delegation, observation, working smart, and compassion. 
    This is not theory. It’s the inside story of the decisions, negotiations, and systems that separate businesses that burn out from those that endure—and thrive. 
    Whether you’re scaling a company, preparing to sell one you've built, or simply learning how to turn setbacks into stepping stones, Failing My Way to Success gives you a clear-eyed, practical path forward.

    Long before Wikileaks and social media, the journalist Drew Pearson exposed to public view information that public officials tried to keep hidden. Pearson devoted himself to revealing what politicians were doing behind closed doors. From 1932 to 1969, his daily "Washington Merry-Go-Round" column and weekly radio and TV commentary broke secrets, revealed classified information, and passed along rumors based on sources high and low in the federal government, while intelligence agents searched fruitlessly for his sources. 
     
     
     
    For forty years, this syndicated columnist and radio and television commentator  called public officials to account and forced them to confront the facts. Pearson's daily column, published in more than 600 newspapers, and his weekly radio and television commentaries led to the censure of two US senators, sent four members of the House to prison, and undermined numerous political careers. 
     
     
     
    Breaking secrets was the heartbeat of Pearson's column. He played cat and mouse with the investigators who shadowed him, tapped his phone, read his mail, and planted agents among his friends. Yet they rarely learned his sources. Drawing on Pearson's extensive correspondence, diaries, and oral histories, The Columnist reveals the mystery behind Pearson's leaks and the accuracy of his most controversial revelations.

    Debbie: My Life is a heartfelt, feel-good autobiography that chronicles the rags-to-riches-to-rags story of the indomitable Debbie Reynolds. The much-beloved actress first grabbed America's heart when, as a poor 16-year-old, she entered and won the Miss Burbank contest. Ms. Reynolds went on to embody fresh-faced American grace and gumption in such classic films as Singing' in the Rain, How the West Was Won, and The Unsinkable Molly Brown. Debbie shares vivid memories of her public and private life: her widely publicized and turbulent marriages to Eddie Fisher and businessman Harry Karl; her experiences with other stars like Frank Sinatra, Gene Kelly, Bette Davis, Shelley Winters, Glenn Ford, Robert Wagner, and Fred Astaire; and her enduring relationships with her son, Todd Fisher, and daughter, actress and author Carrie Fisher. Against the backdrop of the Golden Age of Hollywood, Debbie: My Life—read by Reynolds herself—is a witty and frank account of a survivor whose screen performances have touched us all.
