  Chile - Historical Revolution...

  Chile’s history is a tapestry woven with threads of indigenous heritage, colonial conquest, political revolution, and economic transformation. Stretching along the western edge of South America, Chile’s unique geography—bordered by the Pacific Ocean to the west and the towering Andes to the east—has shaped not only its physical landscape but also its historical trajectory and economic development. The country’s diverse climates, from the arid Atacama Desert in the north to the fertile central valleys and the rugged, windswept terrain of Patagonia in the south, have influenced settlement patterns, agricultural practices, and resource exploitation for centuries. 
  Long before Spanish colonization, Chile was home to numerous indigenous groups, including the Mapuche, who fiercely resisted foreign domination. Their cultural legacy remains an integral part of Chile’s identity, despite centuries of marginalization. The arrival of Spanish conquistadors in the 16th century marked the beginning of a colonial era characterized by the extraction of natural resources, the establishment of a rigid social hierarchy, and the introduction of European institutions. The colonial economy relied heavily on agriculture, mining, and forced indigenous labor, laying the foundation for economic systems that persisted well into the post-independence period. 
  Chile’s struggle for independence from Spain in the early 19th century was part of the broader wave of liberation movements sweeping across Latin America. Achieving independence in 1818 under the leadership of figures like Bernardo O’Higgins and José de San Martín, Chile faced the daunting task of nation-building. The early republican period was marked by political instability and power struggles between conservative and liberal factions, each advocating different visions for Chile’s future.

  A Knock at the Door

  ‘An incredible read. I laughed, I cried and my heart was truly touched by this beautifully written true story of hope and humanity at its best.’ Rosemary Conley CBE'An extraordinary story. Truly Inspirational' Tim Vine 
  An astonishing story of kindness, self-learning, pain, unbelievable hope and the sheer power of love to change a life. 
  Christmas 1975 and Queen’s ‘Bohemian Rhapsody’ is riding high in the charts. In a residential street just outside Cardiff, a persistent knocking breaks the stillness of the evening …  
  When Rob Parsons, a young lawyer, opens his door he finds a man standing before him clutching a bag of belongings and a frozen chicken. Rob and his wife, Dianne, invite him into their home, cook his chicken and offer him shelter for the night. What happens next is an astonishing story of human kindness, self-learning, incredible pain, unbelievable hope and the sheer power of love to change a life. 
  A Knock at the Door is the true story of Ronnie Lockwood, a homeless man who entered the home of a young couple, became a dustman and lived as part of their family for over 45 years until his death. But this is not just Ronnie’s story – it is also that of Rob and his family. Outwardly the two men’s lives were worlds apart – as Ronnie emptied rubbish bins, Rob flew on Concorde – and yet, they discovered they had similar struggles. Then the day came, at the lowest moment of the couple’s lives, when they turned to the homeless man for help. 
  But there were also remarkable turnarounds. Ronnie spent much of his spare time volunteering, including at a homeless centre, and ended up having a £1.6 million well-being centre named after him. Rob left his law practice and he and Dianne began a charity that touches the lives of millions of people. 
  You will have never read a story like this before, but at its heart is a simple message: whether we are a lawyer or a dustman – tomorrow doesn’t always have to be like yesterday. 
  This autobiography is not just a tale of two men, but a testament to the power of empathy and kindness. It's a motivational and inspirational journey that delves deep into the realms of poverty, homelessness, and the social dynamics that bind us all. 
  For fans of Harry Benson (Scram!), Richard Foster (The Real Bettie Page), Max Lucado (Jesus), and Bear Grylls (Never Give Up).
