Synopsis

Theodore Roosevelt: An Autobiography presents a compelling narrative of one of America's most dynamic leaders, blending personal anecdotes with broader reflections on national identity and purpose. Written in a vigorous and engaging style, Roosevelt's autobiography is both a historical document and a rich literary memoir, embodying the spirit of the Progressive Era. The author skillfully interweaves his formative experiences, political philosophies, and adventurous exploits, illuminating the complexities of leadership and the evolution of American values during the early 20th century. Theodore Roosevelt (1858-1919) was not just the 26th President of the United States; he was a naturalist, a reformer, and a stalwart advocate for conservation and social justice. His diverse experiences, from his tumultuous youth marked by illness to his time as a Rough Rider and his groundbreaking presidency, shaped his worldview and drive for progress. Roosevelt's quest for a 'Square Deal' for all Americans is both a reflection of his personal convictions and a critique of societal injustices, making his perspective invaluable to understanding contemporary American politics. This autobiography is essential reading for anyone interested in American history, leadership, and the complexities of democracy. Roosevelt's eloquent prose not only entertains but also inspires readers to engage critically with the challenges of their own time. Whether you are a history enthusiast, a political science student, or simply curious about the man behind the presidency, this work illuminates the character and ideals of an indomitable figure.

    The shocking story of the case against Australia's most highly decorated soldier, Ben Roberts-Smith VC MG, and the defamation trial of the century. 
     
    With a Victoria Cross and Medal for Gallantry, Ben Roberts-Smith was the most highly decorated Australian soldier, the best of the best. When he returned to civilian life, he became a poster boy for a nation hungry for warrior heroes. He embodied the myth of the classic Anzac, seven-foot-tall and bulletproof. But as his public reputation continued to grow, inside the army rumours were circulating. 
     
    Gold Walkley Award winning journalist Chris Masters was the first to investigate the rumours of summary executions, bloodings and bullying, and began to examine more closely the man we wanted to hero-worship. When the stories hit the headlines, and with a billionaire media baron's backing, Ben Roberts-Smith sued. So commenced the defamation trial of the century, a courtroom contest of tightrope tactics and fierce wit. 
     
    Chris Masters tells the extraordinary story of Ben Roberts-Smith, the man at the centre of this de facto war crimes trial, from the battlegrounds of Afghanistan to the front lines of the Federal Court. 
     
    ‘After 40 years of producing landmark journalism, Masters is still doing it. And he’s still obsessive about the truth, relentless and fearless.’ Nick McKenzie 
     
    'If there was a Victoria Cross for bravery in journalism, Chris Masters deserves to receive it.' Phillip Adams 
     
    'There's seriously no one else in Australia with the knowledge that Chris Masters has in relation to Australian Special Forces in Afghanistan.' Former Commando Major

    Shareware Heroes is a comprehensive, meticulously researched exploration of an important and too-long overlooked chapter in video game history 
     
     
     
    Shareware Heroes: The renegades who redefined gaming at the dawn of the internet takes listeners on a journey, from the beginnings of the shareware model in the early 1980s, the origins of the concept, even the name itself, and the rise of shareware's major players—the likes of id Software, Apogee, and Epic MegaGames—through to the significance of shareware for the "forgotten" systems—the Mac, Atari ST, Amiga—when commercial game publishers turned away from them. 
     
     
     
    This book also charts the emergence of commercial shareware distributors like Educorp and the BBS/newsgroup sharing culture. And it explores how shareware developers plugged gaps in the video gaming market by creating games in niche and neglected genres like vertically-scrolling shoot-'em-ups (e.g. Raptor and Tyrian), or racing games (e.g. Wacky Wheels and Skunny Kart), or RPGs (God of Thunder and Realmz), until finally, as the video game market again grew and shifted, and major publishers took control, how the shareware system faded into the background and fell from memory.
