Sinopsis

Wool Trade explores the profound influence of wool on world history, economics, and culture. Far from being a simple textile, wool acted as a major driver of economic growth and social stratification. The book examines wool's journey from its origins to its role in shaping global commerce and fashion. Readers will discover how this single commodity influenced societies, fueled empires, and left a lasting mark on the world. For example, the English enclosure movements, which transformed agricultural practices, were largely driven by the profitability of wool production. The narrative unfolds chronologically, beginning with the early domestication of sheep and progressing through the rise of wool as a global trade commodity. The book explores the impact on medieval economies, the rise of global trade networks, and also the social structures created by wool. By drawing on historical records, archaeological findings, and economic data, Wool Trade offers a comprehensive look at the interconnectedness of history, economics, and culture through the lens of this ubiquitous fiber. The book emphasizes wool's active role in shaping events.

    What if the law wasn’t just what is written—but what ought to be? 
    In Minos, Plato examines the very essence of law in a philosophical dialogue that challenges the foundation of political authority. Socrates asks whether true law is simply what cities declare—or if it must reflect something deeper, more eternal, and more just. 
    This modern translation captures the gravity and insight of Plato’s early political thought, providing a brief but powerful introduction to the eternal question: What is justice? 
    What you'll discover inside: 
    •	A Philosophical Inquiry into the Nature of Law – Beyond rules, toward universal truth 
    •	Socratic Method Applied to Politics – Questioning whether law equals justice 
    •	A Rare and Fragmentary Text Revived – One of Plato’s boldest but most overlooked dialogues 
    •	A Contemporary, Clear Translation – Ideal for modern listeners engaged in legal, ethical, or political thought 
    Step into one of Plato’s most daring conversations—and reconsider what gives law its true legitimacy.

    This is a combo of several books, which are: 
    1 - The Cherokee are among the native tribes of the United States' Southeastern Woodlands. They resided in communities along river valleys in what's now southwestern North Carolina, southeastern Tennessee, the limits of western South Carolina, northern Georgia, and northeastern Alabama just before the 18th century. Cherokee belongs to the Iroquoian language family. One oral legend tells of the people moving south in age-old times from the Great Lakes area, where other Iroquoian-speaking tribes were based, according to James Mooney, an early American ethnographer. 
    2 - The Comanche are a Native American people from the contemporary United States' Great Plains. Most of contemporary northwestern Texas, and also surrounding parts in eastern New Mexico, southeastern Colorado, southwestern Kansas, western Oklahoma, and northern Chihuahua, were previously part of their historical domain. 
    The Comanche people are acknowledged by the federal government as the Comanche Country, which is headquartered in Lawton, Oklahoma. 
    The Comanche language belongs to the Uto-Aztecan family of Numic languages. It started as a Shoshoni dialect, but has since developed into its own language. 
    3 - The Sioux, also called the Oceti Sakowin are a North American people of Native American tribe and First Countries tribes. The contemporary Sioux are split into 2 significant groups based upon language: Dakota and Lakota; they're called together as the Ohéthi akówi ("7 Council Fires"). The term "Sioux" is an exonym stemmed from a French transliteration of the Ojibwe term "Nadouessioux," and can apply to any ethnic group or language dialect within the Great Sioux Country.

    ". . . brutally honest . . . a compelling work. GET IT" -Kirkus Reviews 
     "Moving story of an adopted daughter's search for her own voice." -Booklife 
    "Well-written and poignant . . . engaging. Feelings and experiences to which many adoptees can relate." 
    -Betsie Norris, Founder and Executive Director, Adoption Network Cleveland 
    In 1947, in Celina, Ohio, Dr. Ralph Beare and his wife, Lou, childless and in their early forties, adopted a four-and-a-half-month-old orphan. “Janice” knew she was adopted, because her mommy read her a book about how the Beare's chose her out of a Home. "We chose you, but we love you as if you were our own." However, her mother never seemed to forget she was adopted, especially on Mother’s Day, when she couldn’t look at Janice without crying. 
    Janice learned that most grown-ups in town knew her as "Dr. Beare's Daughter." Her daddy took her everywhere and people stopped to stoop down and tell her how he had saved their lives.  
    With her red hair and freckles, Janice didn't look like her dark-haired parents. Her struggle to become that elusive golden child that she imagined they really wanted came with the erasure of her own identity. Still, there was a small voice, deep inside her, that popped up at the most inconvenient times, saying, "I'm here." Try as she might to silence it, her true self often slipped out to take charge, and then there was trouble.
