  The American Revolution is replete with seminal moments that every American learns in school, from the “shot heard ‘round the world” to the Declaration of Independence, but the events that led up to the fighting at Lexington & Concord were borne out of 10 years of division between the British and their American colonies over everything from colonial representation in governments to taxation, the nature of searches, and the quartering of British regulars in private houses. From 1764-1775, a chain of events that included lightning rods like the Townshend Acts led to bloodshed in the form of the Boston Massacre, while the Boston Tea Party became a symbol of nonviolent protest.  
  	The political and military nature of the Revolutionary War was just as full of intrigue. While disorganized militias fought the Battles of Lexington & Concord, George Washington would lead the Continental Army in the field while men like Thomas Jefferson drafted the Declaration of Independence in Philadelphia and Benjamin Franklin negotiated overseas in France. Benedict Arnold would become one of his nation’s most vital war heroes and its most notorious traitor, French forces would play a crucial role at the end of the war, and the Treaty of Paris would conclude the Revolution with one last great surprise.  
  	Perhaps not surprisingly, the Revolution was far more complex than often depicted, both demographically and politically. Not all the British colonies in North America joined the rebel colonies - East and West Florida remained British (although Britain almost lost both to Spain), while the Bahamas, Bermuda, and the Caribbean colonies remained in the empire. The colonies in what is now Canada also remained loyal, namely Quebec, Newfoundland, Nova Scotia, and Rupert’s Land.

  Brought to you by Altrusian Grace Media and narrated by Matthew Schmitz.
  Dion Fortune’s Psychic Self-Defense is a seminal work on the hidden dimensions of psychic and spiritual vulnerability, exploring how unseen forces—whether psychological projections, unconscious influences, or genuine occult phenomena—can affect human well-being. Drawing from her own experiences as a psychotherapist and occultist, Fortune examines cases of psychic attack, obsession, and energy vampirism, offering practical methods of protection through mental discipline, moral clarity, and spiritual hygiene. More than a manual on occult defense, it is a study of the human mind’s porous boundaries and the necessity of maintaining inner strength and discernment in the face of invisible adversity.

  When the Declaration of...

  Tracing the moments after its creation, this groundbreaking story follows how news of the Declaration of Independence spread to people throughout the thirteen colonies and the Atlantic world.In 1776, people could hear the Declaration of Independence proclaimed in public squares and could read it in the pages of their local newspapers. Although stories of the Declaration typically recount the work of the Continental Congress, the work of spreading the news involved printers, post riders, ship captains, civic leaders, soldiers, clerks, orators, preachers, diplomats, and translators.When the Declaration of Independence Was News reveals the stories behind how the Declaration was communicated in the New and Old worlds. Tracing the travels of the founding document of the US from Philadelphia to New York, Boston, Charleston, Europe, and beyond, Emily Sneff shows how people both celebrated and critiqued the Declaration. In the weeks after the document was penned, it was printed in newspaper columns, translated into German and French, and shared with Native American allies. The document compelled some people to make public their privately held beliefs about whether they wanted the United States to be independent or to reconcile with King George III. The questions of who experienced the news of independence, when, and how reveal an expansive and complex history of a critical moment in the American Revolution.Published for the 250th anniversary of US independence, When the Declaration of Independence Was News returns to a time before the legacy of these words was known to reconsider what the founding of the US meant to the people who were living through it.
