Summary

New Deal Begins explores President Franklin Delano Roosevelt's ambitious policies during the crucial first year of his presidency in 1933, amidst the Great Depression. It examines the initial impact of the New Deal's relief programs, such as the Civilian Conservation Corps (CCC) and the Federal Emergency Relief Administration (FERA), and their role in shaping American history. The book objectively assesses whether these programs achieved their goals of alleviating unemployment and stimulating economic recovery, and how they altered the relationship between the government and its citizens. Government reports from the Roosevelt administration are used to provide a contemporary perspective on the programs' effectiveness. The book argues that while the New Deal provided immediate assistance, it also fundamentally changed the role of government in American society, setting a precedent for future intervention in the economy and individual lives. It begins by depicting pre-New Deal America and then progresses to detailed analyses of key relief programs established in 1933. The book avoids retrospective interpretations, prioritizing contemporary data to offer an objective assessment, and concludes with a discussion of the New Deal's lasting legacy and relevance to modern debates about government intervention and social welfare.

    A two-time Pulitzer Prize–winning cartoonist shreds the GOP’s record of backward policies and abysmal leaders. Luckovich takes aim at the NRA, Trump, Bush, Ted Cruz, and more.
		 
The Twisted History of the GOP is an editorial cartoon exploration into the ongoing crack-up of the Republican party. Once a proud, competent counterbalance to the Democratic party, the GOP began to change in the ’90s with the arrival of Republican representative and future House Speaker Newt Gingrich to Congress, assisted by radical radio host Rush Limbaugh and a new television network, the right-wing, propaganda-spewing Fox News. In the years that followed, they were aided by Mitch McConnell and the George W. Bush and Trump administrations, in transforming the GOP into what it is now: a fascist, racist, anti-science, pro-conspiracy cult, in thrall to the twice-impeached conman and former president, Donald Trump.
		 
These cartoons will shock and delight you, and you won’t be able to look away from Luckovich’s witty editorial wisdom. Combining a rapier wit alongside exceptional caricatures, The Twisted History of the GOP will make you laugh until you cry.

    Rome's complex relationship with animals goes right back to its foundation myth, and even today, the wolf remains a symbol of the Eternal City, forming part of the logo for the capital's football team, A. S. Roma. According to tradition, the city of Rome was founded by Romulus, who, with his brother Remus, was nursed and sheltered by a she-wolf. That tale, widely believed as a historical fact by ancient Romans, had a profound influence on Roman culture, and in part that shaped Roman attitudes toward their animals. The actual cave where Romulus and Remus were said to have been raised, the Lupercal, is thought to have been situated on the Palatine Hill in the very heart of Rome, and there was a claim by some archaeologists it had been found in 2007. True or not, the story of the wolf and its link to the beginnings of Rome continues to intrigue modern citizens, and the recent return of a family of wolves to the outskirts of Rome was greeted with wild enthusiasm. 
	Other than the tale of the she-wolf with Romulus and Remus, the overriding images and stories of Roman animals that have come down through popular culture to modern times largely concern the vicious animal fights put on in the Colosseum, stories of Christians being thrown to the lions, and Hannibal's invasion of Italy with elephants. Indeed, the widely accepted view is that Romans were uncommonly brutal to their animals and had little empathy for them, and in terms of the Romans' scientific knowledge about animals, it appears much of it came to them from the Greeks.

Perfect for fans of Tom Clancy and Brad Thor.'***** Wow!!

He makes the complex murky world of counterintelligence infinitely entertaining. Loved it!
