The Declaration of Independence of The United States of America

Thomas Jefferson

Sinopse

The Declaration of Independence of The United States of America, authored by Thomas Jefferson in 1776, stands as a seminal document in American history and political philosophy. Its concise articulation of the colonies' desire for self-governance is marked by Jefferson's eloquent prose and philosophical underpinnings derived from Enlightenment thinkers such as John Locke. The text employs a persuasive rhetorical style, incorporating a series of grievances against King George III, culminating in a powerful assertion of the rights of individuals to life, liberty, and the pursuit of happiness. Jefferson's use of metaphor and parallel structure not only conveys urgency but also resonates emotionally with the grandeur of human aspirations for freedom and justice. Thomas Jefferson, a Founding Father and the third President of the United States, was deeply influenced by Enlightenment ideals and the political landscape of his time. Prior to drafting the Declaration, he served in the Virginia House of Burgesses and the Continental Congress, experiences that forged his belief in democracy and individual rights. Jefferson's diverse background as a farmer, architect, and diplomat complemented his commitment to establishing a nation grounded in the principles of liberty and equality. This work is a must-read for anyone interested in the foundations of American democracy and the philosophical underpinnings of human rights. Its enduring relevance continues to inspire movements for justice and self-determination worldwide, making it not only a historical artifact but also a timeless blueprint for freedom.

7 Seconds to Die - A Military...

John F. Antal

A military study of the 2020 war between Armenia and Azerbaijan—the first war in history won primarily by unmanned systems. 
 
Fought over the course of forty-four days, the Second Nagorno-Karabakh war resulted in a decisive military victory for Azerbaijan. Armenia lost even though they controlled the high ground in a mountainous region that favored traditional defense. In 7 Seconds to Die, military consultant and historian John Antal examines the decisive factors of the war and their implications for the future of armed conflict. 
 
The fact that Azerbaijan won the war is not extraordinary, considering the correlation of forces arrayed against Armenia. What is exceptional is that this was the first modern war primarily decided by unmanned weapons. The Turkish-made BAYRAKTAR TB2 Unmanned Air Combat Vehicle (UCAV) and the Israeli-made HAROP Loitering Munition (LM) dominated the fighting and provided Azerbaijan with a war-winning advantage.

Sea State - A Memoir

Tabitha Lasley

A Recommended Read from: Vogue * USA Today * The Los Angeles Times * Publishers Weekly * The Week * Alma * Lit Hub
A stunning and brutally honest memoir that shines a light on what happens when female desire conflicts with a culture of masculinity in crisis
In her midthirties and newly free from a terrible relationship, Tabitha Lasley quit her job at a London magazine, packed her bags, and poured her savings into a six-month lease on an apartment in Aberdeen, Scotland. She decided to make good on a long-deferred idea for a book about oil rigs and the men who work on them. Why oil rigs? She wanted to see what men were like with no women around.
In Aberdeen, Tabitha became deeply entrenched in the world of roughnecks, a teeming subculture rich with brawls, hard labor, and competition. The longer she stayed, the more she found her presence had a destabilizing effect on the men—and her.
Sea State is on the one hand a portrait of an overlooked industry: “offshore” is a way of life for generations of primarily working-class men and also a potent metaphor for those parts of life we keep at bay—class, masculinity, the transactions of desire, and the awful slipperiness of a ladder that could, if we tried hard enough, lead us to security.
Sea State is on the other hand the story of a journalist whose professional distance from her subject becomes perilously thin. In Aberdeen, Tabitha gets high and dances with abandon, reliving her youth, when the music was good and the boys were bad. Twenty years on, there is Caden: a married rig worker who spends three weeks on and three weeks off. Alone and in an increasingly precarious state, Tabitha dives into their growing attraction. The relationship, reckless and explosive, will lay them both bare.
