  On November 11, 1940, 21 slow, canvas-covered British warplanes, launched from the carrier Illustrious, attacked the harbor at the Italian port of Taranto and put most of the Italian navy out of commission. This all-but-forgotten operation, the authors argue, deserves historical recognition as an inspirational precedent for the Japanese raid on Pearl Harbor 13 months later. Taranto demonstrated that battleships in a shallow, heavily defended harbor could be sunk by a handful of torpedo-bombers. That lesson Adm. Isoroku Yamamoto, commander-in-chief of the Japanese fleet, learned well-while the American military virtually ignored it.   “By this single stroke the balance of naval power in the Mediterranean was decisively altered.” –Winston S. Churchill

  A sizeable body of literature is available on the east-west pathways of the American continent, including the famous wagon train trails that helped to colonize the nation to the shores of the Pacific. Any study of these routes ranging from footpaths to early American highways is accompanied by an equally vibrant collection of popular literature. In the perception of the American history buff, the continent was fully peopled by the advent of the 20th century, and the American mystique began to shrink with the absence of unexplored land. 	However, those enamored of the primeval American experience can find comfort in a system of north-south trails designed to recapture the natural wonders of the continent, and to provide an escape from commercialism and the inherent noise of the city. The Pacific Crest Trail travels in one form or another from Canada to Mexico, while the Continental Divide Trail lies nearer the center of the county, following some of the highest points of the Rocky Mountains.  
  	Most iconic of the major American pathways is the Appalachian Trail that completes the “triple crown” of the national hiking experience. Covering a range from central Maine to Georgia at a distance of 2,193 miles, it is the longest of the three, following the crest of the Alleghenies and Blue Ridge Mountains through 14 states. All in all, it encompasses 465,000 feet in elevation and hosts three million visitors each year for at least a part of the total distance. On an annual basis, approximately 4,000 hikers begin a south to north trek beginning at Springer Mountain, Georgia, with the goal of hiking all the way to Maine. The northerly direction is greatly preferred, in part because of the weather calendar and because the northern terminus closes in mid-October, creating a difficulty for slow travelers.

  A game-changing approach to overcome food addiction and radically improve your health. 
   
   
   
  Have you ever wondered why you're addicted to certain foods? Would it shock you to learn that the food industry engineers food products with the express purpose of getting you hooked? With millions wrestling with food addiction, is it any surprise that much of what is meant to sustain us is in fact making us sick? The increasing dependence on unhealthy, ultra-processed foods invites a host of health problems—from obesity and heart disease to diabetes. So, how can you break free from this destructive cycle? 
   
   
   
  Written by an addiction psychiatrist with decades of experience, this powerful guide combines proven-effective techniques based in addiction and eating disorder treatments to help you overcome the unhealthy food habit, once and for all. In addition to real-world stories from others who have battled food addiction, you'll learn how certain foods can actually alter your neurochemistry—lighting up reward centers in your brain just like nicotine, alcohol, and other drugs. Most importantly, you'll discover how to move beyond the self-blame, shame, and internalized stigma that is associated with food addiction, so you can start taking steps toward lasting recovery. This powerful book can help you get started today.

  You were never meant to fit in. 
  You were meant to remember. 
  A Knew Knowledge doesn't shout—it stirs. It pulls back the curtain on a world that feels familiar but never quite made sense. It doesn't offer answers so much as it sharpens your questions. The kind that changes how you see everything. 
  Each chapter peels back a layer of the world you thought you knew—revealing not something new, but something forgotten. 
  You won't find conclusions here. You'll find doors. 
  And once opened, they don't close.

  🎧 NOW AVAILABLE AT A DISCOUNTED LAUNCH PRICE — FOR A LIMITED TIME! 
  What if everything you've been taught about life, happiness, and success is actually the very source of your suffering? 
  Do you ever feel like something essential is missing in your life, yet you can't quite pinpoint what it is? Or perhaps you believe that missing piece is just around the corner, waiting for you in your next endeavor, your next achievement, your next relationship. Are you waiting for a happy tomorrow to finally arrive? 
  Why does fulfillment always seem just out of reach? Why, despite moments of joy or success, does an underlying emptiness linger—hidden beneath fleeting pleasures? 
  What if everything you've been chasing—every desire, every accomplishment, every pursuit of success—has been keeping you trapped? What if the peace you seek has been within you all along, patiently waiting to be seen? And if you cannot find happiness today, what makes you believe it will suddenly appear tomorrow? 
  This book does not offer temporary comfort or easy answers. It is here to wake you up—to strip away the illusions that bind you to suffering and guide you toward a deeper truth. A place beyond suffering. Beyond the endless search for meaning. 
  Are you ready to let go of illusion? To see beyond the matrix? To see life as it truly is? 
  If something within you resonates with these words, perhaps it's time.
