Sinopse

In "Napoleon's Letters to Josephine," the intimate correspondence between the formidable military leader and his beloved wife reveals a kaleidoscopic portrait of passion, longing, and emotional vulnerability. Written during a time of political upheaval and personal turmoil, these letters are both eloquent and poignant, showcasing Bonaparte's mastery of language and ability to convey deep feelings. The literary style is characterized by fervent expressions and heartfelt rhetoric, capturing the essence of their tumultuous relationship against the backdrop of Napoleonic France, where personal and political spheres often collided. Napoleon Bonaparte, one of history's most recognized figures, was deeply influenced by his complex relationships, especially with Josephine de Beauharnais. Born into modest circumstances, Napoleon rose to iconic status as Emperor, a position that demanded both ruthlessness and charisma. His letters to Josephine not only reveal the softer, romantic side of this military genius but also reflect the emotional strife he faced, offering a glimpse into the vulnerabilities that propelled him beyond the battlefield. "Napoleon's Letters to Josephine" is essential reading for those interested in understanding the multifaceted nature of human emotions, leadership, and love. This collection invites readers into the heart of a legendary figure, making it a poignant exploration of both historical significance and intimate connection.

    The Insider - How the Kiplinger...

    When Willard M. Kiplinger launched the groundbreaking Kiplinger Washington Letter in 1923, he left the sidelines of traditional journalism to strike out on his own. With a specialized knowledge of finance and close connections to top Washington officials, Kiplinger was uniquely positioned to tell deeper truths about the intersections between government and business. With careful reporting and insider access, he delivered perceptive analysis and forecasts of business, economic, and political news to busy business executives, and the newsletter's readership grew exponentially over the coming decades. 
     
     
     
    More than just a pioneering business journalist, Kiplinger emerged as a quiet but powerful link between the worlds of Presidents Hoover and Roosevelt, and used his Letter to play a little-known but influential role in the New Deal. Part journalism history, part biography, and part democratic chronicle, The Insider offers a well-written and deeply researched portrayal of how Kiplinger not only developed a widely read newsletter that launched a business publishing empire but also how he forged a new role for the journalist as political actor.
