Summary

In the heart of the American Revolution, South Carolina emerged as a beacon of defiance, a state where the flames of liberty burned brightest. From the bustling streets of Charleston to the remote frontier settlements of the backcountry, South Carolinians from all walks of life rallied to the cause of independence.

This book tells the forgotten story of South Carolina's pivotal role in the Revolutionary War. Through vivid storytelling and meticulous research, it brings to life the heroes and heroines who shaped the course of history, from the daring exploits of Francis Marion, the Swamp Fox, to the resilience of the Cherokee Nation in the face of overwhelming odds.

South Carolina was a hotbed of revolutionary fervor from the very beginning. Its citizens were among the first to take up arms against British rule, and they fought with unwavering determination throughout the long and bloody war. The state's strategic location made it a key battleground, and its people endured untold hardships as the conflict raged around them.

From the opening shots fired at Fort Moultrie to the final surrender at Yorktown, South Carolina's Revolutionary War story is one of courage, sacrifice, and unwavering dedication to the cause of liberty. This book is an inspiring tribute to the state's proud heritage and a testament to the enduring power of the human spirit.

Uncover the untold stories of South Carolina's Revolutionary War heroes, from the brave soldiers who fought on the front lines to the ordinary citizens who made extraordinary sacrifices. Witness the state's transformation from a British colony to a beacon of independence, and explore the lasting impact of the war on the state and the nation as a whole.

This book is a must-read for anyone interested in American history, the Revolutionary War, or the rich heritage of South Carolina. It is a powerful reminder of the sacrifices made by our ancestors in the pursuit of freedom and a testament to the enduring power of the human spirit.

    Losing a child before they take their first breath is an indescribable pain—one that lingers in the heart, reshaping the world as we know it. No parent expects to say goodbye before they say hello. Yet, for those who have experienced stillbirth, this heartbreaking reality becomes a defining moment, one that forever alters their journey through life. The silence of a delivery room, the emptiness of arms that were meant to cradle, and the dreams that vanish in an instant—these are the wounds that so many carry, often in solitude.  
      
    Grief after stillbirth is unique. It is a grief that comes with memories that were never made, with birthdays that will never be celebrated, and with a love so strong yet without a place to go. It is a pain that is often misunderstood, leaving parents feeling isolated in their sorrow. This book is a space for that grief—a place where your pain is acknowledged, your baby is remembered, and your heart is given permission to heal in its own time.  
      
    In the aftermath of loss, many parents struggle to find words for their emotions. The world around them often moves on too quickly, expecting them to heal at a pace that feels impossible. Friends and family may not always understand, unintentionally offering words that hurt more than they heal. Some parents are left feeling as though their baby’s existence is slipping away, as if their grief is something to be hidden or minimized. But your love for your child does not fade, and neither should their memory.

    Compassionate listening is an art that involves fully engaging with another person’s words, emotions, and underlying experiences. At its core, it goes beyond simply hearing someone speak; it is a deep, intentional act of understanding. It is about listening with the heart as much as with the ears, which requires a unique combination of patience, presence, and empathy. 
    To practice compassionate listening, the first step is to give the speaker our undivided attention. In today’s world, where distractions are constant, the act of truly focusing on the speaker can be revolutionary. This means setting aside your phone, shutting off mental distractions, and focusing solely on the other person. It may sound simple, but it is often a challenge, especially when our minds are preoccupied with our own thoughts, tasks, or judgments. 
    Equally important is the ability to listen with empathy. This involves not only understanding the words being spoken but also feeling and acknowledging the emotions behind them. Empathetic listening allows us to connect with others on a deeper level. It creates a sense of trust and comfort for the speaker, as they feel understood and valued. When we truly listen, we show others that their thoughts and feelings matter, fostering an environment where open communication can flourish.

    An approach to reinvigorating economic competition that doesn’t break up corporate giants, but compels them to share their technology, data, and knowledge 
      
    “Bessen is a master of unpacking the nuances of a complex array of interrelated trends to build a coherent story of how the promise of the democratized Internet ended up under the control of just a few. Read The New Goliaths to see how the forest came to have only room for a few tall trees with the rest of us in the undergrowth.”—Joshua Gans, coauthor of Prediction Machines: The Simple Economics of Artificial Intelligence 
      
    Historically, competition has powered progress under capitalism. Companies with productive new products rise to the top, but sooner or later, competitors come along with better innovations and disrupt the threat of monopoly. Dominant firms like Walmart, Amazon, and Google argue that this process of “creative destruction” prevents them from becoming too powerful or entrenched. 
      
    But the threat of competition has sharply decreased over the past twenty years, and today’s corporate giants have come to power by using proprietary information technologies to create a tilted playing field. This development has increased economic inequality and social division, slowed innovation, and allowed dominant firms to evade government regulation. In the face of increasing calls to break up the largest companies, James Bessen argues that a better way to restore competitive balance and dynamism is to encourage or compel these companies to share technology, data, and knowledge.
