Sinopse

Nubian Kingdoms unveils the captivating history of Nubia, a civilization that flourished south of Egypt. This book explores Nubia's unique cultural identity, its complex relationship with Egypt, and the political might wielded by Nubian rulers. For centuries, Nubia and Egypt were deeply intertwined, with Nubian influence at times even surpassing that of its more famous neighbor. The book challenges the conventional view of Nubia as a mere extension of Egypt, revealing it as a dynamic and independent civilization.

 
The book traces Nubia's journey from the early Kerma culture through the powerful Kingdom of Kush and the later Meroitic period. It examines archaeological findings, such as Nubian cities and temples, alongside Egyptian inscriptions and classical accounts. Through a comparative analysis of Nubian and Egyptian cultures, Nubian Kingdoms illuminates Nubia's distinct identity.

 
Beginning with Nubia's geographical setting, the book progresses through periods of Egyptian domination, the Kushite conquest of Egypt, and the cultural developments of Meroe. It offers a comprehensive view of Nubian society by analyzing its art, religion, and social structures. This approach provides a holistic understanding of Nubia's place in world history, moving beyond Egypt-centric narratives.

    In each episode of The Great American West, we explore the facts, myths and the fiction about significant events or historical figures in our western heritage. You’ll hear stories about Wyatt Earp, Bat Masterson, Jesse James, Bell Star, Annie Oakley and many others. The stories were written by a group of ex-Hollywood writers and American West history experts. The Great American West stories were written only with facts and no theory. These stories were crafted prior to the advent of the internet, meaning they had to read books, periodicals and transcripts. The idea was to let the listener make up their own minds.
     
    Our fine cadre of writers was headed by our lead writer, Patty Sprigg, who wrote for NBC television, The Daniel Boone and Disney shows among others. Nancy Bacon who wrote for NBC and David Nivens Four Star Productions. Rounding out our stable of writers was Ted Bryant, news anchor, political analyst and historical scholar.
     
    We hope you enjoy listening to The Great American West as we really enjoyed voicing these shows.

    "Romantic Demons: Victory Over Incubus and Succubus" leads you to that shadowy world in which this line between myth and reality is blurred, and the fears of the ages come to life. Ever since the first whisper of their names, incubi and succubi have fascinated and terrified, sirenly entrapping their victims into a seductive, deadly embrace. The veil is pulled off in this book, exposing the dark truth about these nocturnal predators. 
    Look into the human mind, where true terror really resides. Analyze how sleep paralysis and suppressed desires result in nightmarish encounters with these demons. It is the depth of the psychology in these myths that makes them all the more real—and horrifying. And in a world infested with these demons, man has retaliated with each available weapon at his disposal. Learn about religious artifacts, charms, and modern practices designed to keep these nightmarish beings at bay. Discover the mix of superstition and practical wisdom developed to reclaim our nights. 
    As the last curtain falls, reflect on the strength these myths still hold. Incubi and succubi are not just relics of those times but living testaments to humanity's darkest fears and desires. Celebrate that resilient, ingenious human spirit, which turned terror into triumph and ancient dread into a testament of survival. 
    "Romantic Demons: Victory Over Incubus and Succubus" is an investigation, an invitation into a world where the ancient crashes into the modern. It isn't a light passage through darkness, with high stakes and profound revelations. Will you dare to uncover the truth?

    A biography chronicling one man’s service during World War II as a Royal Navy commander and his career before & after in the tea business. Jake Wright’s initiation to war was on the beach at Dunkirk, helping evacuate stragglers. Then volunteering for Motor Torpedo Boats, he served with valor throughout World War II, becoming one of only forty-four officers in WWII to receive a DSC with two Bars . . . Derek Wright learned about small boats from his father, who tragically died when Derek was just fourteen years old. Sent away from his family to finish his education, he left school at sixteen to join the global tea trade. Soon after he finished his training with Brooke Bond, famous for their “Dividend” tea, Hitler invaded Poland and Britain was at war. By then known to his friends as “Jake,” he was one of the first Volunteer Reserves to be called up to fight for his country. Plucked from his naval training in HMS King Alfred, his warfighting initiation was on the beach at Dunkirk, helping evacuate stragglers after Operation DYNAMO. He then volunteered for Motor Torpedo Boats, where he served with valor and distinction. While Hitler’s U-Boats were torpedoing shipments of tea bound for Great Britain, Jake Wright reciprocated by torpedoing Axis coastal shipping off Europe. His first Command was MTB 331, trained for a daredevil mission to puncture German boom defenses protecting their battleships. In his next Command, MTB 32, he was wounded in action whilst torpedoing a German convoy, but kept his small ship fighting against the odds to win the action and sink his enemy; for his bravery he was awarded the Distinguished Service Cross. Further acts of gallantry in action, combined with tactical innovation, saw him earn two bars to his DSC as well as a Mention in Despatches; he became one of only forty-four officers in the Second World War to receive a DSC with two Bars. After demobilization he returned to the tea trade, rising to become one of Brooke Bond’s senior directors supplying Britain’s beloved beverage. He even helped refine how to make the perfect cup of tea. This is the life story of a determined, brave, innovative, and decorated officer who has earned a place in the hearts of our nation. It is the story of Derek “Jake” Wright, DSC**.Praise for Torpedoes, Tea, and Medals “A must read . . . an enthralling look at motor torpedo boat operations off the coast of France and Belgium during World War II.” —Naval Historical Foundation “Wright clearly had a really action-packed war and this book skillfully combines his coastal forces experiences with his influential role in the tea business.” —Captain Andrew Welch, FNI, Royal Navy Retired
