  James I Charles I Commomwealth &...

  Step right up for the most uproariously irreverent chapter of Gilbert Abbott A’Beckett’s Comic History of England—where crowns are comedy props and history’s biggest egos trip over their own dogma! 
  Meet James I, the "Wisest Fool in Christendom," who preached divine right while his pet favorite, the Duke of Buckingham, turned the court into a scandalous farce. Then comes Charles I, whose stubbornness cost him his crown (and his head), thanks to a Parliament with a very sharp grievance list—and a little help from the ill-fated Earl of Stafford. 
  Enter Oliver Cromwell, the Puritan party-pooper who banned Christmas, crushed Ireland, and somehow made republicanism duller than a Sunday sermon. But just when you think the chaos can’t get worse, in stumbles Richard Cromwell, his hapless son, who proved that ruling England was not a hereditary talent. Spoiler: The Republic collapses faster than a house of cards in a hurricane. 
  Narrated with wicked wit by Charles Featherstone, this uproarious installment skewers the Stuarts like a royal roast—where kings are klutzes, parliaments are punchlines, and the only thing sacred is the absurdity of power.

The content is unapologetically ‘vintage’ slam poetry mixed with some mature flair and an intellectual dynamic touch peppered with gritty verses, spirituality, and raw imagery. All in all, this work will make you connect with a part of yourself you didn't know existed or have perhaps neglected to grow along with. Prepare to think and feel as you listen to recall every magical tone that brought you there. 
  The initiative represents the first poetry anthology from the author, Kwantum Peakz, in which he covers themes stemming from everyday life as well as love & relationships, social issues, spirituality, and more. In true form, as on stage as in the book, the experience will infuse your mind with steady and timely new ways of viewing life through a different lens. Ultimately, the dimension poetic words are given will help you to support, confront, beautify, question, love, defeat, or tame your own deepest thoughts in admirable fashion. This is, in part, how one's spoken words become written to flow through you.

  Democratic Presidents of the...

  As one of the most influential men of the 20th century, there is no shortage of adjectives to use when describing Woodrow Wilson’s two terms as president of the United States. Wilson was a pioneer of the Progressive movement both before and during his presidency, becoming a populist champion a generation before Franklin Roosevelt’s New Deal.  
  Franklin Delano Roosevelt might be America’s greatest 20th century president, but there’s no question that he was the most unique. A well-connected relative of Theodore Roosevelt, FDR was groomed for greatness until he was struck down by what was widely believed to be polio at the time. Nevertheless, he persevered, rising through New York politics to reach the White House just as the country faced its greatest challenge since the Civil War, beginning his presidency with one of the most iconic lines ever spoken during an inaugural address.  
  As president, Truman would lay the groundwork for the next 50 years of American foreign policy, as the architect of Cold War containment, the man who signed off on the Marshall Plan, and the commander-in-chief during much of the Korean War. He would also be the president who finally integrated the military, a crucial step on the way to full civil rights for the country’s minorities.  
  In many ways, John Fitzgerald Kennedy and his young family were the perfect embodiment of the ‘60s. The decade began with a sense of idealism, personified by the attractive Kennedy, his beautiful and fashionable wife Jackie, and his young children.  
  Of all the politicians who have left their mark on American history, few have had a political career or list of accomplishments and accolades that can even come close to rivaling Lyndon B. Johnson. Johnson is one of only 4 Americans to serve as a House Rep, U.S. Senator, Vice President and President, and he made the most out of each experience.

Late at night in their attic, they are piecing together a hot-air balloon—and a plan.
