Henry Schoolcraft, a renowned ethnologist and geographer, dedicated his career to studying and documenting the Native American tribes of the United States. His passion for preserving the history and heritage of indigenous peoples led him to compile this authoritative work, which remains a definitive source on the subject.

    This audiobook is narrated by an AI Voice.   
Humanity stands at a pivotal moment. For centuries, conflict, inequality, and environmental collapse have defined the systems we rely on. Yet the knowledge, technology, and creativity to evolve beyond these crises already exist. The Great Reorganisation: Evolving Beyond Conflict to Building a Living Future presents a bold, integrative vision for the transformation of civilisation. 
This book explores how education, culture, governance, technology, and economy can be realigned to serve life itself. It envisions a world where militaries and conflicts are replaced by global cooperative competitions, where open-source innovation accelerates progress, and where economies measure wealth not in profit but in well-being, equity, and environmental health. Through principles of regenerative design, the book demonstrates how cities, agriculture, energy systems, and finance can operate in harmony with natural ecosystems rather than against them. 
At its core, The Great Reorganisation emphasises consciousness. Individual and collective awareness are presented as the foundation of planetary intelligence, enabling humanity to respond to crises with foresight, empathy, and creativity. From cultivating inner resilience to fostering global collaboration, the book provides practical frameworks for integrating mindfulness, ethics, and innovation into every aspect of society. 
This work is both a call and a guide: a call to reimagine what is possible, and a guide to implementing the systems, practices, and cultural shifts needed to bring that possibility to life. It offers readers the tools to participate actively in shaping a sustainable, equitable, and vibrant civilisation.

    The Thirty Years' War was one of the most horrific conflicts in history, and though it is widely viewed as a religious struggle, that was only part of the complicated war. Calvinists and Lutherans did not get along, and both persecuted some of the more radical Anabaptist sects. At the same time, one major motivation behind the war was Holy Roman Emperor Ferdinand II’s determination to rule all of the empire and not be just a figurehead. There were struggles between rulers and their estates over power, and Catholic France later entered the war on the side of the Protestants in order to counter the Habsburgs’ power.  
	The Battle of Breitenfeld, fought in September 1631, was one of the most decisive moments of the war. It was the first major Protestant victory and widely considered the crowning achievement of Swedish King Gustavus Adolphus’ military career. Through his establishment of communication and supply lines at strategic points across the Baltic Sea, the securing of Protestant alliances, and his use of combined arms, amongst his other trademark techniques, the Swedish forces, against all odds, defeated their rivals. Such was the devastation inflicted upon their opponents that the Count of Tilly, the chief commander of the Catholic League's armies, had no other choice but to retreat. 6,000 or so Catholic soldiers were captured, many of them later incorporated into the Protestant forces. Whatever remained of the survivors vanished into the dark of the night.
