Shadows of a Troubled Past - Nixon's Forgotten Legacy

Pasquale De Marco

Maison d'édition: Publishdrive

Synopsis

Richard Nixon is a name that is synonymous with Watergate and scandal. However, there is much more to the 37th President of the United States than his involvement in that infamous affair. Nixon was a complex and contradictory figure who left a lasting legacy on American politics and society.

In this book, we take a fresh look at Nixon's presidency and legacy. We explore his domestic and foreign policy accomplishments, as well as his failures and controversies. We also seek to understand the man himself, his motivations and his character.

Nixon's presidency was a time of great turmoil and change in America. The Vietnam War was raging, the civil rights movement was at its peak, and the country was deeply divided. Nixon faced these challenges head-on, and he made some significant progress in addressing them. He also made some major mistakes, however, and his presidency ultimately ended in disgrace.

Despite his flaws, Nixon was a brilliant and complex figure who made a significant impact on American history. He was a man of contradictions, capable of great good and great evil. He was a ruthless politician who was willing to do whatever it took to win, but he was also a visionary leader who saw the need for change. He was a deeply flawed man, but he was also a man of great accomplishment.

This book is an attempt to understand Richard Nixon, the man and the president. It is a warts-and-all account of his life and career, his triumphs and his failures. It is a book that will challenge your preconceptions about Nixon and leave you with a new understanding of this enigmatic figure.

Whether you are a fan of Nixon or a critic, this book will give you a new perspective on one of the most important and controversial presidents in American history.

Mexican History - Facts about...

Kelly Mass

This combo consists of 2 books: 
1 - 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). Zapata was associated with political efforts against Daz and the landowning hacendados from an early age, and when the Revolution emerged in the year 1910, he was placed as a key figure in the peasant insurgence in Morelos. He established the Freedom Army of the South with the help of certain other peasant leaders, and he rapidly rose to become its undisputed head. 
2 - The cult image, female divine being, and folk saint Nuestra Seora de la Santa Muerte (Spanish meaning: Our Woman of the Holy Death) is a cult image, female divine being, and folk saint in Mexican Neopaganism and folk Catholicism. Her worshippers relate her with healing, security, and safe delivery to the afterlife simply because she's a personification of death. In spite of condemnation from Catholic Church leaders and, more just recently, evangelical movements, her following has grown substantially since the start of the twenty-first century. Santa Muerte, who was initially portrayed as a male character, is now generally illustrated as a skeletal female figure dressed in a long cape and clutching several things, most typically a scythe and a world.

Spiritual Wisdom - The Divine...

Esther Jameson

Spirituality is the essence of human existence, a journey beyond the physical world into the depths of the soul. It is not confined to religious doctrines but is instead a personal experience that connects an individual to a higher reality. At its core, spirituality is about seeking truth, understanding the purpose of life, and attaining inner peace. Some find this connection through meditation and prayer, while others experience it in nature, art, or acts of kindness. Regardless of the path taken, spirituality fosters a sense of belonging to something greater than oneself.
The relationship between the mind and spirit is fundamental to spiritual growth. Thoughts shape perception, and perception influences reality. A mind cluttered with negativity and distractions struggles to grasp deeper truths, while a mind that is calm and focused becomes a gateway to higher awareness. This is why many spiritual traditions emphasize practices such as mindfulness, meditation, and contemplation. These practices clear the noise of daily life and create space for divine insight. In this state of clarity, individuals often experience a profound sense of connection with the universe, realizing that they are not separate from it but an integral part of its vast and mysterious existence.
Awakening to higher consciousness is a transformative process. It often begins with an inner calling—an unshakable feeling that there is more to life than material success and worldly pleasures. This realization can emerge through deep reflection, personal struggles, or even spontaneous moments of enlightenment. As one embarks on the path of self-discovery, old beliefs and conditioned patterns begin to dissolve, making way for a more expansive understanding of life. True spiritual awakening is not about accumulating knowledge but about experiencing a shift in perception—one that transcends fear, attachment, and limitation.

Alien Invasion

Raphael Terra

This audiobook has been recorded using Text to speech (TTS). 
 
Across the world thousands of men and women have seen UFOs with their own eyes. They have even seen alien beings. They have even come into contact with them. The fact is there have been hundreds of UFO's crashed onto our planet. And we have witnessed them. 
 
Across the world people are paralysed, abducted, abused and terrorised. Landscapes are burned and scarred. Towns are closed down, radio stations threatened and lies are spread. 
 
But the truth can be seen when we expose all the evidence. When we bring the hundreds of UFO crashes together in one story. There is a pattern. But, what are the aliens doing? Why are they crashing? Are we at war? 
 
Our secretive military and inner-governments know what is happening and they are hiding it from us. They close down every site, cordon off, recover technology and corpses and then cover-up. They have been doing so for decades and we are being fooled. Why? Because we are at war. 
 
This is the story of Alien Contact. This is the story of the Alien Invasion.
