  The Storming of the Bastille -...

  The French Revolution did not erupt suddenly on July 14, 1789. Rather, it was the result of deep-rooted issues that had been festering for decades. The Ancien Régime, a rigid social and political structure, created vast inequalities that left the majority of the population burdened with heavy taxes and little representation. At the same time, Enlightenment thinkers challenged traditional authority, inspiring people to demand fundamental rights. Adding to these tensions was a financial crisis that left the government unable to function effectively, further alienating the common people from the monarchy. 
  Under the Ancien Régime, French society was divided into three estates. The First Estate, composed of the clergy, and the Second Estate, made up of the nobility, enjoyed numerous privileges, including exemption from most taxes. The Third Estate, which included the bourgeoisie, urban workers, and peasants, bore the financial weight of the nation. These commoners made up the vast majority of the population but had little say in political matters. Discontent grew as food prices soared, wages stagnated, and oppressive taxes drained the resources of ordinary citizens. The nobility and clergy, unwilling to relinquish their privileges, further deepened the divide between the ruling class and the people. 
  As social inequality worsened, Enlightenment ideas provided a new way of thinking. Philosophers such as Voltaire, Rousseau, and Montesquieu argued against absolute monarchy and promoted concepts such as liberty, equality, and popular sovereignty. Their writings spread widely, influencing the educated middle class and encouraging political discussions. Many began to question the legitimacy of the monarchy and the rigid class system. The belief that power should come from the people, rather than from divine right, gained traction, setting the stage for a confrontation with the old order.

  Shiloh: The History of the First...

  After Union General Ulysses S. Grant captured Fort Henry and Fort Donelson in early 1862, Confederate General Albert Sidney Johnston, widely considered the Confederacy’s best general, concentrated his forces in northern Georgia and prepared for a major offensive that culminated with the biggest battle of the war to that point, the Battle of Shiloh. On the morning of April 6, Johnston directed an all out attack on Grant’s army around Shiloh Church, and though Grant’s men had been encamped there, they had failed to create defensive fortifications or earthworks. They were also badly caught by surprise. With nearly 45,000 Confederates attacking, Johnston’s army began to steadily push Grant’s men back toward the river. 
  The Battle of Shiloh lasted two days, but the battle over the battle had just begun. Grant’s army had just won the biggest battle in the history of North America, with nearly 24,000 combined casualties among the Union and Confederate forces. Usually the winner of a major battle is hailed as a hero, but Grant was hardly a winner at Shiloh. The Battle of Shiloh took place before costlier battles at places like Antietam and Gettysburg, so the extent of the casualties at Shiloh shocked the nation. Moreover, at Shiloh the casualties were viewed as needless; Grant was pilloried for allowing the Confederates to take his forces by surprise, as well as the failure to build defensive earthworks and fortifications, which nearly resulted in a rout of his army. Speculation again arose that Grant had a drinking problem, and some even assumed he was drunk during the battle. Though the Union won, it was largely viewed that their success owed to the heroics of General Sherman in rallying the men and Don Carlos Buell arriving with his army, and General Buell was happy to receive the credit at Grant’s expense.

Through powerful stories, psychological wisdom, and healing strategies, Rising Over the Waves helps you stop treading water and finally rise, not despite your past, but powerfully because of it.
