    Americans With African Roots Empowered (A’WA’RE™) offers a grounded and insightful exploration of the history and identity of the Hebrew Israelites, tracing their journey from biblical times through centuries of exile, colonization, and cultural erasure. Beginning with King James VI and I, the book examines how his influence shaped the Bible’s translation and how this version was used to reinforce imperial agendas. Through careful comparison with ancient texts such as the Ethiopian Bible and analysis of removed or suppressed scriptures, the book reveals how religious doctrine was reshaped to justify colonization and slavery. The transformation of the Hebrew Israelite faith into a tool of European dominance is laid bare, showing how key elements of biblical history were distorted or omitted. Spanning events from the founding of Jamestown to the transatlantic slave trade, this work connects pivotal historical moments to the ongoing journey of a people whose story has often been hidden. It also explores the cultural endurance and prophetic traditions of the Hebrew Israelites, the evolving role of women, and the spiritual impact of the King James Bible on African-American communities. This is both a historical reexamination and a call to rediscover truth, identity, and legacy in the face of centuries of misrepresentation.

    The last collection of Sherlock Holmes short stories contains some of the most dramatic moments of the entire Sherlock Holmes canon. "The Dying Detective" sees the great Holmes brought low by a fatal illness and refusing even Dr Watson's medical care. "The Bruce-Partington Plans" is a case of national importance, not least for the introduction of Mycroft Holmes. It also contains the quintessential Holmes line "whatever remains, however improbable, must be the truth.""The Devil's Foot" is what happens when the great sleuth and his doctor attempt to go on a restful holiday. "His Last Bow" is the last ever Sherlock Holmes story, about his war service and undercover spy experiences. These and other classic Holmes and Watson stories are here brought to life by a dramatic cast of voices, so sit back and let the mysteries unfold!

    “Takes the reader into the Pacific war and offers a front-row seat to the exploits of the Wright Project and their highly innovative technology.” —War History Network 
     
    In August 1943, a highly classified US Army Air Force unit, code-named the “Wright Project,” departed Langley Field for Guadalcanal in the South Pacific to join the fight against the Empire of Japan. Operating independently, under sealed orders drafted at the highest levels of Army Air Force, the Wright Project was unique, both in terms of the war-fighting capabilities provided by classified systems the ten B-24 Liberators of this small group of airmen brought to the war, and in the success these “crash-built” technologies allowed. The Wright airmen would fly only at night, usually as lone hunters of enemy ships. In so doing they would pave the way for the United States to enter and dominate a new dimension of war in the air for generations to come.  
     
    This is their story, from humble beginnings at MIT’s Radiation Lab and hunting U-boats off America’s eastern shore, through to the campaigns of the war in the Pacific in their two-year march toward Tokyo. The Wright Project would prove itself to be a combat leader many times over and an outstanding technology innovator, evolving to become the 868th Bomb Squadron.  
     
    Comprehensive and highly personal, this story can now be revealed for the very first time, based on official sources, and interviews with the young men who flew into the night.

    Henry Louis Mencken (September 12, 1880 - January 29, 1956) was an American journalist, essayist, satirist, cultural critic, and scholar of American English. He commented widely on the social scene, literature, music, prominent politicians, and contemporary movements. His satirical reporting on the Scopes Trial, which he dubbed the "Monkey Trial", also gained him attention. The term "Menckenian" has entered multiple dictionaries to describe anything of or pertaining to Mencken, including his combative rhetorical and prose style.
     
    
     
    American journalist, essayist, satirist, and cultural critic, H.L. Mencken makes his 3-pronged case for  the death penalty for those who take the lives of other people, challenging civilized order. Mencken argues the death penalty is a form of catharsis for the immediate victims of the crime, and is not solely for deterring other criminals, but also to give peace of mind to the society that has been wronged.
