Sinossi

The History of Taxes: 3 Classic Books on Taxation and Contributions offers an illuminating exploration into the evolution and intricacies of tax systems through a compendium of historical accounts and analyses. Spanning diverse literary styles, this anthology delves into the economic, social, and political ramifications of taxation across different eras and regions, presenting a multifaceted examination of one of the world's most pervasive societal constructs. Without singling out specific works, this collection underscores the profound impacts of taxes on civilization's growth and development, presenting a nuanced discourse that extends beyond mere fiscal policy. The contributing authorsâ€"Otto H. Kahn, Henry B. Gardner, and Sir William Pettyâ€"bring together an impressive array of expertise from distinct historical and cultural contexts. From Kahn's early 20th-century American perspectives to Gardner's insights within governmental frameworks, and Petty's pioneering economic thought in the 17th century, the anthology is a testament to the enduring dialogue between taxation practices and societal progress. Collectively, these authors help readers trace the interplay of taxation with burgeoning economic theories and the fluctuating demands of governance, offering a layered understanding of its role across time. Readers are encouraged to immerse themselves in The History of Taxes for its profound educational value, enabling a deeper appreciation of taxation's role in shaping civilizations. This compilation is not just an academic resource but a gateway to understanding complex fiscal narratives and their societal impacts. Whether approached as a historical inquiry or a study of economic evolution, this volume invites readers to engage with a pivotal subject through the dynamic interplay of historical voices and perspectives, reflecting a rich tapestry of tax-related narratives.

    Before discovering native healing methods, Herb Nabigon could not imagine a life without alcohol. His powerful autobiography, The Hollow Tree, tells the story of his struggle to overcome addiction with the help of the spiritual teachings and brotherly love of his elders. Nabigon had spent much of his life wrestling with self-destructive impulses, feelings of inferiority and resentment, and alcohol abuse when Eddie Bellerose, an Elder, introduced him to the ancient Cree teachings. With the help of healing methods drawn from the Four Sacred Directions, the refuge and revitalization offered by the sweat lodge, and native cultural practices such as the use of the pipe Nabigon was able to find sobriety. The Hollow Tree is one person's testament to the power of indigenous culture to heal. Herb Nabigon's healing journey guided him to a life of kindness, honesty, courage, and humility.

    Legendary folk singer and activist, Woody Guthrie and his songs changed the world. Born in an Oklahoma oil-boom town, Guthrie traveled America by boxcar, thumb, and foot. Along the journey, he composed and sang songs that have become a national heritage. His songs, however, are but part of his legacy. This remarkable autobiography brings to life both his vibrant personality and a vision of America we cannot afford to let die. Funny, cynical, and earthy, Bound for Glory is the stirring account of Guthrie's life and a superb portrait of America's Depression years. This Grammy-nominated recording is performed by his son, Arlo Guthrie, who—like his father—is known for engaging storytelling and performing songs of protest against social injustice.
