Sinopse

In "A Victorious Union," Oliver Optic masterfully weaves a compelling narrative that reflects the trials and triumphs of the American Civil War era. The novel is marked by its vivid characterization and a robust use of dialogue, which brings to life the moral dilemmas faced by its characters. Through the lens of adventure and camaraderie, Optic explores themes of patriotism, sacrifice, and resilience, painting a nuanced portrait of a nation grappling with unity and division. The stylistic choices bear the hallmarks of 19th-century literature, marked by a romantic optimism even in the face of dire circumstances, encouraging readers to reflect on the historical significance of this tumultuous period. Oliver Optic, the pen name of William Taylor Adams, was a prolific author, deeply influenced by the literary movements of his time and his own experiences along the coastal regions of New England. Growing up in a culturally rich environment, Optic'Äôs passion for adventure and strong moral values resonated throughout his works, fostering a distinct narrative voice that champions ethical conduct amid adversity. His writings often echo the societal issues and youthful optimism that characterized his era, making him a significant figure in American children's literature. For readers seeking to engage with a story that not only entertains but also educates about the complexities of American history, "A Victorious Union" is a compelling choice. Its rich narrative offers insights into the spirit of perseverance and unity that defined a nation during one of its most challenging times. This book is not only a journey through historical events but serves as a reminder of the enduring values of bravery and solidarity.

    This book deals with the following topics: 
    1 - Emiliano Zapata: Emiliano Zapata Salazar was a revolutionary in Mexico. He was a key figure in the Mexican Revolt of the years 1910 until 1920, and also the primary leader of the people's revolution in the Mexican state of Morelos and the creator of the Zapatismo agrarian movement. Zapata was born in the rural town of Anenecuilco in the state of Morelos, at the time of a period when peasant communities dealt with increasing pressure from the small-landowning class, which monopolized land and water resources for sugar-cane production with the support of totalitarian Porfirio Daz (President from the year 1877 to 1880 and from 1884 to 1911). 
    2 - Mexican Revolution: The Mexican Revolution was a great revolution that included a series of army local battles instead of a single united struggle. It destroyed the Federal Force and changed it with an innovative army, changing Mexican civilization and governance at the same time It also culminated in the adoption of a new constitution that included the revolutionaries' ideal visions. In spite of the fact that President Porfirio Daz's (from about 1880 to 1911) rule had grown progressively out of favor over the prior 31 years, there was no indicator that a transformation would break out in the year 1910.

  • The Flowering War - Toltec Teachings on Healing Ancestral Trauma Overcoming Your Internal Enemies and Fulfilling Your Life Purpose - cover

    In every generation of every family there is one person that is born carrying an unequal amount of the emotional and energetic burden of their lineage. In an intact culture, this person would be recognized for bearing a gift, a seed: the potential to become the healer of their family line. This potential would be cultivated, and the individual guided to learn how to use this gift to heal their personal and ancestral wounds, as well as guide others in their own process of healing. 
      
    This understanding has been lost in our modern society, and instead those bearing this gift are criticized, belittled, ostracized for the very sensitivity that would make them exceptional healers. They become the “black sheep” of their families and communities. 
      
    The Flowering War is a companion, a guide, and a roadmap for those individuals, those that have carried too much and been seen too little, those that have an incredible gift that, when untended, can become a devastating burden. It is for those that I’ve come to know as “Griefbearers,” the potential healers of generations of untended wounds and accumulated trauma. It is for those that have lost their way in bearing this burden but somehow, miraculously, keep going. It is for those would-be healers, consumed by self-criticism and self-doubt. For those wrestling with addiction and self-destruction. It is a Light to guide them out of the Darkness. 
      
    The Flowering War is for those that are determined to break the harmful patterns of their lives and their lineages. It draws on the ancestral living wisdom of the Toltecs to guide you to a greater understanding of yourself, your purpose in life, and the essential role you play in healing an increasingly wounded world. 
      
    If you recognize yourself in these words, this book is for you.

    With four year college degrees under our belts and a dab of training in Child Psychology, my wife and I thought we were ready for anything when it came to this parenting gig. We had no idea we would be outnumbered and outgunned. From diet to riot, meds to charts, we've tried it all, to train up our kids in the way they should grow. 
    From the Home School of Hard Knocks, our four ADD and ADHD kids have taught us more about coping and planning ahead than any four year college degree could have, especially when it comes to understanding what goes on in the mind of a five-year-old in a Buzz Lightyear costume flying on a treadmill, To Infinity, and Beyond.
