  Indian Legends of the Cuyamaca Mountains by Mary Elizabeth Johnson. Published in 1914 by Mary Elizabeth Johnson. 
  Narrated by Joseph Tabler. This book is in the public domain. It is read ‘as written.'Audio copyright 2024 
  Contents of the booklet: 
  ForewordHilsh Ki’e—Pine TreeHuts-tah’ Ta-mil ‘tah—Hanging HeadAh-ha’ Wi Ah-ha’—Water Colder WaterAh Kwer-rup’—Disease CureHul-ya-oo’ Nimoo-lu ‘kah—Phantom BasketNa-wa-Ti ‘e—Big HouseIn-yar’en Ah-ha’—No Eyes in WaterSeen-u-how ‘How-wak’—Old Woman’s TwinsSeen-u-how ‘Hum-poo’—Old Woman’s WhipKwut ah Lu ‘e-ah—Song DanceAh Kwir’—Red Paint (part missing) 
  From the Author’s Foreword:Indian lore of the Cuyamaca Mountains and surrounding region in San Diego County, California, abounds in myths and legends handed down from generation to generation by tribal song and squaw-tale. Yet so swiftly has the hand of civilization wiped out the old traditions and customs, that but few Indians remain who remember them, and fewer still are those willing to divulge them. Only when one comes into intimate contact with them is one accorded the privilege and honor of hearing the tales of their ancestors. And it is through the friendship of some of the old-type Indians, that the author has been allowed a glimpse of the inner shrine of their lives. 
  Cuyamaca is evidently a Spanish corruption of the Indian words Ah-ha’ Kwe-ah-mac’ (Water Beyond), a name used by the Indians, first to designate a location high on the middle mountain, but afterward applied to the entire group. 
  These mountains had distinctive names also. The one farthest north, they called E-yee’ (Nest), because they believed that a big nest or den was on one of its slopes in which the wild animals disappeared when hunted, thus safely evading pursuit. The middle one, Hal-kwo-kwilsh’ (Tough Strong), gained this title in the battle of the peaks when he proved very formidable. The one known as the Cuyamaca Peak, acquired the name of Poo-kwoo-sqwee’ (Crooked Neck), in the same battle. And before the battle still another peak, Hilsh Ki’e (Pine Tree), belonged to the group, so the Indians say, but now lives far away. 
  Pronunciation:The Indians accent their words strongly and enunciate with their teeth very nearly closed, which gives their language a rhythmical cadence quite pleasing to the ear. 
  Dusty Tomes Audio Books are public domain books retrieved from history. If today’s technology had been available when first printed, they would be audio books already. I am grateful for the opportunity to record them now. Read online at archive.org and Hathitrust.org. 
  Narrator’s note: I read only as written. These old books were once solid sellers for bookmen of their time. I believe they can shed light on their times and ours. Loving obscure and remote literature, they are a distinct pleasure for me to read to you. These turn out to be distant and unknown only so long as they remain unread, or unheard. Aloha.

  Two Tactics of Social-Democracy...

  Vladimir Lenin

  Two Tactics of Social Democracy in the Democratic Revolution is one of the most important of Lenin's early writings. It was written in June and July 1905, while the Russian Revolution of 1905 was taking place. Lenin's preface poses these questions: "in educating and organizing the working class;...where should we place the main political emphasis in this work of education and organization? On the trade unions and legally existing associations, or on an insurrection, on the work of creating a revolutionary army and a revolutionary government?" 
   
  The history of social democracy stretches back to the 19th-century socialist movement. It came to advocate an evolutionary and peaceful transition from capitalism to socialism, using established political processes, in contrast to the revolutionary socialist approach to transition associated with orthodox Marxism. In the early post-war era in Western Europe, social democratic parties rejected the Stalinist political and economic model then-current in the Soviet Union, committing themselves either to an alternative path to socialism or to a compromise between capitalism and socialism. In this period, social democrats embraced a mixed economy based on the predominance of private property, with only a minority of essential utilities and public services under public ownership. Social democrats promoted Keynesian economics, state interventionism, and the welfare state while placing less emphasis on the goal of replacing the capitalist system (factor markets, private property, and wage labor) with a qualitatively different socialist economic system.

  Peace As A Science - Towards A...

  What if peace isn’t a moral ideal… 
  but a measurable state of stability? 
    
    
  Peace As A Science reframes peace from aspiration to architecture — not as passivity or the absence of conflict, but as the stabilisation of complexity. 
    
  Drawing on neuroscience, systems theory, biology, physics, and lived human experience, this book explores a radical but grounded idea: 
    
  Peace behaves like a coherent field. 
    
  It can be observed in regulated nervous systems, traced in feedback loops and probability, strengthened through applied principles, and scaled — from the body to relationships, from culture to governance. 
    
  Through a peace lens, we reframe mental health as adaptive intelligence under rupture, neurodivergence as configuration, and justice as restorative rather than revenge — extending from identity through to education, healthcare, media, technology, and war. We move from inner experience to large-scale systems, asking how stability forms, how it breaks, and offering practical tools to repair and build peace. 
    
  It is rigorous, practical, occasionally funny, and deeply human. 
    
  Peace is dimensional and we explore how time travel might not require a machine, but awareness - because peaceful choices shift probability and alter trajectory. And yes, pop culture is part of the laboratory - because sometimes Yoda explains regulation better than a textbook. 
    
    
    
  Because if peace has structure, it can be studied. 
  If it can be studied, it can be practiced. 
  And if it can be practiced, it can be built.
