Synopsis

In the antebellum era of the United States, the specter of slavery cast a dark shadow over the nation, its tendrils reaching deep into the lives of millions of enslaved individuals. Hidden Freedom unveils the extraordinary tale of the Underground Railroad, a clandestine network that defied the chains of bondage and illuminated the path to liberty for those trapped in the clutches of oppression.

Within these pages, readers will embark on a journey through the perilous world of the Underground Railroad, a secret network of routes, safe houses, and courageous individuals that stretched from the slave states of the South to the free states of the North and even beyond to Canada. Fueled by a fervent belief in human dignity and equality, abolitionists, free Black communities, and sympathetic whites joined forces to create this lifeline of hope for those seeking freedom.

Hidden Freedom delves into the intricate workings of this clandestine network, shedding light on the ingenious methods employed to evade capture, the harrowing challenges faced by those seeking refuge, and the profound impact of the Underground Railroad on the course of American history. It is a story of courage, resilience, and the unwavering pursuit of liberty.

Readers will encounter the daring exploits of Harriet Tubman, the "Moses of her people," who fearlessly led hundreds of slaves to freedom, and the tireless efforts of Frederick Douglass, whose powerful words and unwavering advocacy shook the conscience of the nation. They will also discover the contributions of countless unsung heroes, ordinary individuals who risked their lives to aid those seeking refuge, providing food, shelter, and guidance along the perilous journey to freedom.

Hidden Freedom is a testament to the indomitable spirit of those who dared to defy the chains of slavery and the collective effort that made the Underground Railroad possible. It is a story that resonates across time, reminding us of the power of unity, compassion, and the unwavering pursuit of justice.

    For decades, we believed that someone with a high IQ was guaranteed success, but we’ve seen this theory fail time and time again. We see the average student in school, the one without any special talents, catapult himself to the heights of success while the promising straight-A student flounders as soon as he leaves the rigors of school life. We’ve seen charismatic people fly to heights of stardom while the smart ones look like they’re circling the drain for the last time and needing someone to rescue them. 
    Scientists have now realized that the path to success based on intellectual intelligence is only half of the equation. There is another form of intelligence that has only been recognized in the last few decades: our emotional intelligence. In this book, we’re going to discuss exactly what emotional intelligence is and how we can train it to make us more effective communicators, build up positive and rewarding relationships, and how to identify our innermost emotions; especially the ones that are triggering those self-sabotaging behaviors that are keeping us from our goals.

    Chapter 1: What is Emotional Intelligence? 
    Chapter 2: Signs of Lower EI 
    Chapter 3: Signs of Higher EI

    Welcome to London's marriage season. Six high society women are preparing for the biggest moment of their lives: finding a suitable husband. But their stories aren't what you may have read in historic romances by Julia Quinn or Georgette Heyer. In The Game of Hearts, go behind the drawing-room door with history author Felicity Day and delve into the competitive world of love, scandal, and fortune. With shocking revelations about London's most eligible heiresses and the society they live in, you'll see British history and love stories from a whole new perspective. 
     
     
     
    May the best lady win. For our six privileged debutantes, life wasn't like a Regency romance; they had to work for their happily ever after. Even if it meant competing with dozens of other women who want the same thing. By using the letters, diaries, and other confessions from our heroines, Felicity Day shares how they and many other Regency women combined attraction with practicality to navigate upper-class British society, known as the ton, and its courtship rituals. And with obstacles such as scandals, rakes, and social warfare, you'll discover how love and success may not always win, but perseverance shall. 
     
     
     
    So if you liked historic women biographies like Jane Austen at Home, The Palace Papers, or A Room of Their Own, then you'll love The Game of Hearts.
