Red Dawn Over the Allegheny

Pasquale De Marco

Sinossi

In the heart of the Allegheny Mountains, where towering peaks pierce the sky and rivers carve their paths through dense forests, a chapter of American history unfolded that forever changed the destiny of both settlers and Native American tribes. The Indian Wars of the Allegheny, a complex and protracted conflict, left an indelible mark on the region, shaping its identity and its future.

This comprehensive and gripping account delves into the depths of this conflict, shedding light on the grievances, alliances, and strategies that fueled the fighting. Readers will encounter a cast of compelling characters, both Native American and European, whose actions and decisions had a profound impact on the course of the wars. The narrative vividly recounts the decisive battles and turning points that shaped the conflict, from the early skirmishes to the final clashes that brought an end to the hostilities.

The book also delves into the human toll of the wars, the atrocities committed by both sides, and the enduring legacy of violence that continues to resonate in the region. Through the stories of individuals caught in the crossfire, readers gain a deeper understanding of the hardships, resilience, and sacrifices that characterized this tumultuous period.

Furthermore, the book explores the diplomatic efforts and betrayals that punctuated the conflict, the treaties that were signed and broken, and the complex negotiations that ultimately led to a fragile peace. It analyzes the profound impact of the wars on frontier life, the adaptations and struggles of both settlers and Native Americans, and the role of the fur trade in fueling tensions.

Finally, the book examines the lasting legacy of the Indian Wars of the Allegheny, the lessons learned from this chapter in history, and the ongoing struggle for reconciliation and understanding between Native American tribes and the United States government. This book is a testament to the resilience of the human spirit, the power of diplomacy, and the enduring quest for peace.

Maude Barlow

“Canada’s best-known voice of dissent.” — CBC
		 
“It’s time we listened to the Maude Barlows of the world.” — CNN
		 
In this timely book, Barlow counters the prevailing atmosphere of pessimism that surrounds us and offers lessons of hope that she has learned from a lifetime of activism. She has been a linchpin in three major movements in her life: second-wave feminism, the battle against free trade and globalization, and the global fight for water justice. From each of these she draws her lessons of hope, emphasizing that effective activism is not really about the goal, rather it is about building a movement and finding like-minded people to carry the load with you. Barlow knows firsthand how hard fighting for change can be. But she also knows that change does happen and that hope is the essential ingredient.

No Self No God No Clue - David...

Sophia Blackwell

ohn Locke: Enlightenment philosopher, father of liberalism, inventor of “natural rights,” and accidental spiritual patron of land developers, libertarians, and your uncle who won’t shut up about property taxes. 
In this gloriously sarcastic takedown of one of Western philosophy’s most over-quoted minds, Sophia Blackwell (Kant You Not, No Self, No God, No Clue) guides you through Locke’s greatest hits—including: 
The blank slate theory, which basically says you’re born dumb and the world makes you worse 
His ideas on identity, which collapse the second you forget your phone password 
His version of consent, which mostly consists of “You didn’t leave, so I assume you’re fine with it.” 
And of course, property rights—where mixing your labor with the earth somehow makes it yours, and stealing land becomes morally correct as long as you bring a shovel 
Locke’s political philosophy inspired democracies, revolutions, and every 400-comment Reddit thread titled “Taxation is theft.” 
This is not a respectful biography. 
This is a roast. A eulogy. A survival guide for understanding how Locke gave us: 
Liberalism 
Landlords 
Legal headaches 
And a political system that thinks fencing off a patch of dirt = moral superiority 
Perfect for: 
Recovering philosophy students 
Political skeptics 
Enlightenment haters 
Property law survivors 
And anyone who wants to laugh while questioning whether government is just a giant metaphor for a really passive-aggressive roommate agreement 
You don’t need to read Two Treatises of Government. 
You just need to know Locke said, “I think I own that,” and people believed him.

Swing Hard in Case You Hit It -...

Tim Murtaugh

When he woke up in jail in Fairfax County, Virginia, in 2015, Tim Murtaugh had no way of knowing he'd be a senior leader on the reelection campaign for the president of the United States less than four years later. 
 
 
 
What began as a form of high school amusement quickly became an addiction, which over decades would lead Murtaugh to the edge of ruin. Able to beat the disease of alcoholism only under the threat of losing everything, and with the support of a loving wife and family, Murtaugh managed to recover, revive his career, and make it to the top of the political world. 
 
 
 
Travel along on the 2020 Trump campaign as Murtaugh shares stories—never published before—from his two years as communications director, navigating a hostile media, the COVID-19 pandemic, highly anticipated debates, Election Day 2020, January 6, and life on the most-watched political campaign in world history. 
 
 
 
Swing Hard in Case You Hit It is a redemption story unlike any other—from being on the verge of complete self-destruction to flying on Air Force One with President Donald J. Trump—that doesn't come with a happy Hollywood ending.
