  Feeding a Divided America -...

  In Feeding a Divided America, third-generation Montana rancher and international agriculture development specialist Gilles Stockton explores the causes of what he refers to as the "rural-urban divide" and how this widening chasm between rural America and urban centers threatens our democracy. Indeed, it determines the structure of our society, including the physical and political landscapes in which we live. Stockton shows how big banks, international food conglomerates, urban expectations, and US farm policy have all furthered the demise of small towns across America. 
   
   
   
  These essays provide a clear portrait of national food issues surrounding market competition, US trade policy, wildlife controversies, climate change, supply-chain disruptions, and US farm policy, topics that transcend all geopolitical boundaries. Stockton stands firm with American farmers and ranchers, offering potential remedies to these issues in the face of concerns over livelihood, the future of American food systems, and the future of our planet. Stockton's essays are timely, and they challenge American urbanites and rural folk alike to find ways for all of us to coexist in a changing environment. Whether we eat may depend on it.

  A magical grimoire of sigils and rituals for summoning and mastering spirits, The Key of Solomon the King is the most famous, or infamous, of all magick books. It has influenced everything from the revival of magick and the Western Mystery Traditions (tarot, alchemy, astrology, etc.) to fictional works such as Lovecraft’s The Necronomicon.Purported to have been penned by King Solomon himself, the book provides instruction for incantations, rituals, and sigils used to call upon and control spirits and demons. Those practicing magick have used it extensively through the centuries, but its true origins and purpose have been lost in the mists of time.No library of the contemporary occult student or practicing magician is complete without this tome. It remains a standard of esoteric lore by which others are measured. This edition includes a new foreword by noted esoteric scholar Joseph Peterson.

  Once Upon a Place explores narratives from modern film, famous fairy tales, and ancient mythology to define the five core locations that shape every story: the Cavern, the Deep, the Vessel, the Forest, and the Labyrinth. 
   
   
   
  Popularized by Joseph Campbell, the hero's journey features narrative stages along which a person matures and transforms. But where heroes transform is just as important as what they do to get there. Holly Bellebuono shows you how the location of each hero's journey step is intimately tied to the challenges faced, setting the tone for the entire adventure. 
   
   
   
  To illustrate each location, Bellebuono shares fifteen original adaptations—such as the tales of Persephone, Gilgamesh, Cerridwen, and Alice—to explore how the "sense of place" drives the adventure and outcome. From Innana's descent into the Cavern to Snow White entering the Forest, this book offers powerful wisdom about personal growth, life's purpose, and the origins of creativity.

  America needs the Democrats to deliver prosperity and reunite America. 
  The book discusses ten policies that voters overwhelmingly support: reduce prescription drug costs, reduce hospital costs, reduce housing costs, raise the minimum wage, remove big money from politics, restore women’s reproductive rights, outlaw gerrymandering, eliminate presidential immunity, restore the Voting Rights Act, and eliminate the electoral college. 
  Implementing these policies will alleviate the hardship of nearly 200 hundred million Americans living paycheck to paycheck, enable women throughout America to once again be able to fully participate in modern social and economic life, and advance democracy. 
  Democrats have drafted bills and passed laws that implement several of these policies. However, Republicans have and will continue to use the Senate filibuster and the Supreme Court to block these bills and overturn these laws. 
  The book presents moral, legal, and constitutional methods to overcome this Republican obstruction without amendments. 
  When Democrats improve the quality of life for Americans, they win elections
