  MAGNIFICENT COUNTRY ESTATES The Duchy of Cornwall Estate – Established 1337 The summary of this audiobook is as follows: The Duchy of Cornwall, established in 1337 by King Edward III, is England’s oldest duchy, created to provide financial independence for the heir to the throne. Originally comprising lands in Cornwall and beyond, it has evolved from a medieval feudal estate into a modern, sustainable enterprise under Prince William, the 25th Duke. Historical Foundations The Duchy was founded through a royal charter granting Edward, the Black Prince, extensive lands and administrative rights. Over centuries, it survived political turmoil, including the English Civil War, adapting to economic and social changes while maintaining its core purpose. Evolution & Leadership Key figures like Prince Albert (Queen Victoria’s consort) and Prince Charles (Duke from 1952–2022) modernized the estate. Charles championed organic farming, sustainable architecture (Poundbury), and environmental stewardship. Today, Prince William focuses on social impact, mental health support for farmers, and homelessness initiatives. 
  Modern Estate & Operations The Duchy spans 135,000 acres across 20 counties, including: Dartmoor’s uplands (50% of holdings) Poundbury & Nansledan (sustainable urban developments) The Isles of Scilly (conservation and tourism) Revenue (£23.6M in 2023-24) funds royal duties, community projects, and environmental programs. The Duchy operates as a private estate with crown exemptions but voluntarily pays income tax. Sustainability & Social Impact The Duchy leads in: Regenerative agriculture (Focus Farms initiative) Net-zero goals by 2032 (renewable energy, carbon sequestration) Affordable housing and mental health support for rural communities Future Vision By its 700th anniversary (2037), the Duchy aims to balance tradition with innovation, serving as a model for sustainable land management and community development while supporting the monarchy’s future.

  America's Forgotten Terrorists -...

  Jeffrey D. Simon

  Though largely forgotten today, one of the most destructive terrorist groups in the United States was the Galleanists, a fiery band of Italian anarchists active during the early 1900s. In America's Forgotten Terrorists, Jeffrey D. Simon shows how alienation and frustration among segments of a community were transformed into a militant extremist movement. 
   
   
   
  Luigi Galleani, a gifted writer and speaker, tapped into widespread disappointment among Italian immigrants concerning their lives in America. Unemployment, low wages, long working hours, discrimination, and a poor quality of life made many Italian immigrants receptive to his words. The Galleanists introduced terrorist tactics and strategies that are still used today: they were the first group to send package bombs across the country and to exploit the media for their own advantage. 
   
   
   
  The story of the Galleanists is a chilling journey through a volatile period in American history, including labor-management conflicts, World War I, and the Red Scare. An expert in terrorism, Simon offers striking insights into the Galleanist era and some of its eerie connections to modern America, calling us to recognize the risks of repeating our history. How the Galleanists operated and how the U.S. government responded hold lessons for today as we continue to deal with the threat of terrorism.

  What Universities Owe Democracy

  Universities play an indispensable role within modern democracies. But this role is often overlooked or too narrowly conceived, even by universities themselves. In What Universities Owe Democracy, Ronald J. Daniels, the president of Johns Hopkins University, argues that—at a moment when liberal democracy is endangered and more countries are heading toward autocracy than at any time in generations—it is critical for today's colleges and universities to reestablish their place in democracy. 
   
   
   
  Drawing upon fields as varied as political science, economics, history, and sociology, Daniels identifies four distinct functions of American higher education that are key to liberal democracy: social mobility, citizenship education, the stewardship of facts, and the cultivation of pluralistic, diverse communities. By examining these roles over time, Daniels explains where colleges and universities have faltered in their execution of these functions—and what they can do going forward. 
   
   
   
  Looking back on his decades of experience leading universities, Daniels offers bold prescriptions for how universities can act now to strengthen democracy. For those committed to democracy's future prospects, this book is a vital resource.
