  There was a real-life Friedrich Bhaer. In fact, Louisa May Alcott wanted to marry him and even start a school with him. This man appears in literal disguises in all of her novels. He is Friedrich in Little Women, Mac in Rose in Bloom and David in Work and many more. Henry and Louisa shared a deep friendship, was it more than friendship? In Little Women Jo's and Friedrich's age gap is 16 years. It is the same age difference as between Henry and Louisa. 
  One of the models for Jo and Friedrich might be Louisa's friend Elizabeth and her husband. Her life was surprisingly similar to the book Jo. She wasn't a writer, but there are parallels. Based on what I have found, her marriage with her lawyer husband was a happy one. She was devoted to the educational work and in the same way, as Jo does, she promoted co-education, for both male and female students. She became a dean of the university. Same way as Jo who becomes the matriarch of the Bhaer Academy in "Jo´s Boys".. 
  There is a very compelling case to be made that Henry David Thoreau was the real-life Friedrich Bhaer. Louisa once called her friend Emerson "The God of my idolatry" but it was Henry who merited her lifelong affection. The ties between Henry and the Alcotts are more extensive than one might expect. From the time when the Alcotts moved to Concord in March 1840 until Henry's passing in 1862. He was a frequent guest in the Alcott´s home taking tea or dinner with the family. Bronson who admired the young man's intellect often visited him in his hut at Walden Pond. If the connection between Henry and the Alcotts was strong, the connection between Louisa and Henry was even stronger

  The book shares evidence that the Anunnaki's influence extends beyond the realms of mythology and religion, shaping the very foundations of our understanding of reality, consciousness, and the nature of the self. By exploring the connections between the Anunnaki, shamanic practices, psychedelic experiences, and modern pursuits such as artificial intelligence and transhumanism, Anunnaki Revelation aims to trace the origins and trajectory of transformative impact these gods had on the human experience.Who were the Anunnaki? Were they benevolent guides or malevolent manipulators, and what will the answer mean for our understanding of the nature of reality?Was the Anunnaki's wisdom transmitted to early civilizations, then preserved and passed down through secret societies and occult practices?Were psychedelics, shamanic practices, and altered states of consciousness used to communicate with the Anunnaki and other entities? Are they still? 
  Anunnaki Revelation examines the Anunnaki in a new light, as discarnate entities who played a crucial role in the development of human consciousness and civilization by communicating advanced knowledge to the leaders of a lost civilization.

  On a journey of discovery into her parents history of love and fame in war torn Italy, Adela Edgecombe discovered a secret deception within love letters and from family who had been tight-lipped about the scandals for decades.            Bestselling author Jincy Willett describes the story as follows: "Since every human personality is at root mysterious, all families present us with an abundance of mysteries, the chief of which is often how marriages ever happened in the first place. In her family memoir, Adela Edgecombe tackles that mystery head-on, uncovering a web of circumstances peculiar to place and time. The place is the Province of Salerno, Italy; the time,1944, the depths of World War II. A young American GI meets an impoverished Italian family, grows to care for them, and, as he leaves for the front, promises a nine-year-old child that one day he will return and help them. And does the man, against all odds, keep that promise? Judging from the fairy-tale wedding that took place in Passiano in 1951 and was featured in Life Magazine, it would seem so.           "Edgecombe explores that fairy tale moment, how it came to pass, and what followed after. She digs fearlessly into the mystery of an unhappy marriage that began with such photogenic joy and hope. Read Whispers of Betrayal for a well-researched, surprising, and moving tale which reminds us that the casualties of war are many and varied."
