Summary

Abigail Adams was a strong and independent woman who played a vital role in the American Revolution. She was a witness to many of the key events of the Revolution, and she used her writing skills to promote the cause of independence.

Abigail's husband, John Adams, was one of the most important leaders of the Revolution. He served as a delegate to the Continental Congress, and he was later elected as the second President of the United States. Abigail was a close advisor to her husband, and she often provided him with valuable insights into the political and military situation.

Abigail was also a gifted writer. She wrote letters to her husband, to her friends, and to other leaders of the Revolution. Her letters provide a valuable firsthand account of the events of the Revolution. They also reveal Abigail's own thoughts and feelings about the war and the future of America.

In The Firebrand, Abigail's story is told through her own words. The novel follows Abigail from her early days in Massachusetts to her later years as the First Lady of the United States. Along the way, we witness Abigail's transformation from a young woman into a strong and influential leader.

The Firebrand is a story of courage, sacrifice, and determination. It is the story of a woman who fought for her country's independence, and who helped to shape the future of America.

Abigail Adams is an inspiration to us all. She shows us that one person can make a difference, even in the most difficult of times. The Firebrand is a powerful and moving story that will stay with you long after you finish reading it.

    An immersive history of our coasts and the people who have shaped them 
    The coast means something different to everyone. 
    It’s a place of pleasure and reckless pursuits, of fishing, fearless endeavours and a crashing, rugged beauty. The coast is, and always has been, our first line of defence and our springboard to other cultures. 
    Through the lens of 100 carefully selected objects, this treasure chest of a book delves into the myriad ways our coastlines have shaped, and been shaped by, our history, culture, and identity. From Roman lighthouses to rosary beads, knitted jumpers to Viking slave shackles, each object serves as a portal to a unique story. 
    Sally Coulthard’s engaging narrative goes far beyond the traditional seaside holiday to illuminate the coast’s role as a first line of defence, a site of trade, and a catalyst for cultural exchange. Readers will discover how the coast has influenced our beliefs, economy, and even our domestic lives. And, looking out to sea, this book will show how Britain’s story is anchored to those of our European neighbours and of faraway lands. 
    From one of Britain’s finest historians of material culture, this book vividly captures the enduring magic and significance of our shores. Whether it’s smugglers’ underpants or sailor’s hoaxes, whale vomit or pickled puffin – it all washes up on the British coast…

    The tragic story of the murders of three women committed over three decades by one cold-blooded man in Maine's North Woods. 
     
     
     
    Jennie Cyr disappeared in 1977. Jerilyn Towers vanished in 1982. Lynn Willette never came home on a night in 1994. Each woman had a relationship with James Hicks, who in 2000 confessed to murdering them, dismembering their bodies, and burying the remains alongside rural roads in Aroostook County. This is their story. 
     
     
     
    Author Trudy Irene Scee follows Hicks from the North Woods to west Texas, detailing three decades of evasion, investigation, and prosecution. She interviews police officers and victims' families—and meets Hicks at the state prison in Thomaston, where he remains remorseless as he lives out his days behind bars.

    In today’s world we live in a culture of truth suppression. This is true in representative democracies like the United States as well as full totalitarian dictatorships like Communist China.This book covers many areas of major lies like Global Warming, perverted doctrines taught in schools, Politics, News Suppression, Communist China, limitations in Spirituality, deficit spending, and problems with globalism.There are many different types of truth suppression and as much as we would like to think that we live in an advanced culture and world, this effort by different entities to suppress truth affects our lives negatively in many ways.The most direct effect is that we live in fear of the future of our world which is a big lie.This suppression also keeps us from fully realizing our spiritual natures and that we do have the ability to accomplish amazing things when we live with full honesty in our lives.I believe that individuals are closest to a state of happiness when they live their lives in truth. (See my book “A New Paradigm of Truth and Happiness” for more information.)There are actions we can take to correct this situation but they are mass actions which need many persons involved to have a real effect. A list of these actions are given later in this book.
