Small Farm Republic - Why...

John Klar

From farmer, lawyer, and political activist John Klar comes a bold, solutions-based plan for Conservatives that gets beyond the fatuous pipe dreams and social-justice platitudes of the dominant, Liberal “Green” agenda—offering a healthy way forward for everyone.  
While many on the Left have taken up the mantle of creating a “green” future through climate alarmism, spurious new energy sources, and technocratic control, many on the Right continue to deny imminent environmental threats while pushing for unbridled deregulation of our most destructive industrial forces. Neither approach promises a bright future.  
In a time of soil degradation, runaway pollution, food insecurity, and declining human health, the stakes couldn’t be higher, and yet the dominant political voices too often overlook the last best hope for our planet—supporting small, regenerative farmers. In fact, politicians on all sides continue to sell out the interests of small farmers to the devastating power of Big Ag and failed “renewable energy” incentives.   
It’s time for a new vision. It’s time for bold new agriculture policies that restore both ecosystems and rural communities.  
In Small Farm Republic, John Klar, an agrarian conservative in the mold of Wendell Berry and Joel Salatin, offers an alternative that puts small farmers, regenerative agriculture, and personal liberty at the center of an environmental revival—a message that everyone on the political spectrum needs to hear.

Shakespeare's Margaret - The...

Scott W. Stern, Charles O'Malley

Shakespeare's most powerful female character, her historical inspiration, and her reinventions in performance through the centuries.
She is more violent than Lady Macbeth, more complex than Ophelia, more strategic than King Lear’s daughters. She is the only Shakespearean character, male or female, whose entire life—from youth to old age—appears on stage. She is a wealth of insight into Shakespeare’s understanding of, and influence on, ideas of gender and sexuality, and she speaks by far the most lines of any of his female characters. She has allowed the likes of Peggy Ashcroft, Helen Mirren, and Sophie Okonedo full range for their stunning talents. Yet today, most audiences have still never heard of Margaret of Anjou.
But who was Margaret? In the fifteenth century, she was a fourteen-year-old French princess married to an English king, soon thrust into command amid a bloody civil war. A hundred and fifty years later, she was resurrected on the Elizabethan stage in four of Shakespeare’s earliest plays, Henry VI, Parts 1, 2, and 3 and Richard III.
And in every era since the Bard’s, actors, directors, and producers have recast their own Margaret, slicing, dicing, and rearranging the original Shakespeare to highlight or diminish Margaret’s role depending on the sensibilities of the time. It is this evolution of Margaret’s portrayal that Charles O’Malley and Scott W. Stern track in Shakespeare’s Margaret, from Elizabethan boy-actors in wigs enacting misogynist fears of witchy women to feminist celebrations of Margaret’s uninhibited grasp of power and clever commentaries on global politics and world leaders such as Margaret Thatcher. Her story, as it has changed over the centuries across the page and on the stage, brings to life the evolution of theatre and shows how Shakespeare’s plays have always been living collaborations among actors, directors, writers, critics, and history itself, still unfolding.
"Margaret’s image has, over the centuries, been colored, shaded, and shifted by playwrights, the primary one being Shakespeare. As Charles O’Malley and Scott W. Stern show in this fascinating study, in unearthing who Margaret was, we also uncover an important history of who we are."—Philippa Kelly, author of The King and I and dramaturg of Margaret of Anjou

The ORIGINAL Emerald Tablets of...

M. Doreal

(BONUS-this audio reading of The Emerald Tablets is accompanied by soothing background sounds of a healing frequency to further promote peaceful immersion into the material) Among the most powerful esoteric works in metaphysics ever recorded, The Emerald Tablets of Thoth the Atlantean (translated by M. Doreal) reveal a glimpse into the history of advanced Ancient Atlantis: its mechanical and scientific achievements; how it sank deep below the waves of the Atlantic; the founding of the colony that became Egypt...and the construction of its Great Pyramid.  
The highest significance of these tablets is the keys to the unfoldment of the Heavens, the Earth, and the Divine Soul of Man; layered within its  poetic and mystical language. These Tablets are written so that the words respond to attuned thought waves, releasing the associate mental vibrations of an exhilarating rhythm in the mind of the reader.  
A casual listen may catch a brief glimmer of the beauty behind its rhythm; but it falls upon the genuine Truth Seekers (those willing to give full attention to its wisdom) to open avenues to its most Profound Wisdom of unrivaled magnificence.
