  • Henry VII To Elizabeth I - A Comic History Of England Book 5: A Bloody Backstabbing Comedy of Royal Disasters Scheming Monarchs and Countless Heads Rolling - cover

    Henry VII To Elizabeth I - A...

    Prepare for the most uproariously grim tour of Tudor England ever recorded! Gilbert Abbott A'Beckett's classic satire skewers the so-called "golden age" of English monarchy, revealing the Tudors as they truly were: a parade of tyrants, schemers, and royal disasters who treated their subjects like pawns in a deadly game of power. 
    Witness history's worst monarchs at their terrible best: 
    - Henry VII - The paranoid accountant-king who taxed England into submission while pretending to unite the realm. His reign ran on spies, forged claims, and enough gold to make a dragon jealous! 
    - Henry VIII - The original wife-disposer, whose marital musical chairs left two ex-wives headless and a nation bankrupt from his ego. His break with Rome? Just history's most expensive midlife crisis! 
    - Edward VI - The sickly boy-king whose advisors turned England into a Puritan playground where fun went to die (along with most of the treasury). 
    - Bloody Mary - The original firestarter, who turned heresy trials into London's hottest (literally) public spectacles. Her Spanish marriage? The Tudor equivalent of a disastrous Tinder date! 
    - Elizabeth I - The Virgin Queen (or so she claimed) who ruled with an iron ruff, executed her cousin for fun, and bankrupted England fighting wars while pretending to be immortal. 
    From the War of the Roses' messy aftermath to Elizabeth's dying delusions of grandeur, this book proves the Tudors were less a noble dynasty and more a reality show with better costumes and worse consequences.  
    A'Beckett's razor-sharp wit transforms historical atrocities into dark comedy gold, exposing how royal marriages were just preludes to executions, every royal proclamation hid a hidden tax or trap and the only thing growing faster than Henry VIII's waistline was his kill count. 
    Perfect for fans of Horrible Histories., with dark humor, historical atrocities, severed heads, royal tantrums, and exactly zero apologies for mocking the monarchy.

    All of us judge people when we see them, and even if we aren't consciously aware of the conclusions that we make about people, we still do make them, as that determines our actions towards people. Reading people is a human habit and one that we cannot get rid of. We read people because we are threatened by new people that we meet, we want to determine if this person is someone that we can trust or not and a lot of times we end up making the wrong decisions. 
    The purpose of this book is to make this inexact science of judging people a little more exact. By giving you some standards based on which you can judge people, you will become consciously aware of how people function, and more importantly, you'll have a guideline according to which you can read body language. It'll also help you to be sure about the conclusions you come to because a lot of times, our intuition tells us that something is wrong with a person, but we just shut it off because we are too scared of coming off as judgmental. 
    Analyzing people is not only good for protecting yourself but also helps you to communicate better with your loved ones. You can notice small things once you start looking at people, and you will know how to manufacture a situation where everyone can feel comfortable. Being able to read body language also gives you a sense of control since you have information about people that you can use to judge their intentions, control their behavior, and even your behavior. 
    In this book, we're going to take a look at how the process of analyzing people works, why self-awareness is important and the role it plays in analyzing others, the basics of nonverbal and verbal communication, some intricacies of human psychology and lastly, the practical applications that you can derive out of all this knowledge.

    A brilliant debut memoir about a young writer—struggling with depression, family issues, and addiction—and his life-changing decade working for Joan Didion 
    As an aspiring novelist in his early twenties, Cory Leadbeater was presented with an opportunity to work for a well-known writer whose identity was kept confidential. Since the tumultuous days of childhood, Cory had sought refuge from the rougher parts of life in the pages of books. Suddenly, he found himself the personal assistant to a titan of literature: Joan Didion. 
    In the nine years that followed, Cory shared Joan’s rarefied world, transformed not only by her blazing intellect but by her generous friendship and mentorship. Together they recited poetry in the mornings, dined with Supreme Court justices, attended art openings, smoked a single cigarette before bed. 
    But secretly, Cory was spiraling. He reeled from the death of a close friend. He spent his weekends at a federal prison, visiting his father as he served time for fraud. He struggled day after day to write the novel that would validate him as a real writer. And meanwhile, the forces of addiction and depression loomed large. 
    In hypnotic prose that pulses with life and longing, The Uptown Local explores the fault lines of class, family, loss, and creativity. It is a love letter to a cultural icon—and a moving testament to the relationships that sustain us in the eternal pursuit of a life worth living.
