    The Jacobins vs the Girondins -...

    The Jacobins and Girondins were two of the most influential political factions during the French Revolution, each representing different visions for the future of France. Their rivalry played a significant role in shaping revolutionary politics and ultimately led to the radicalization of the movement. While both groups initially sought to overthrow the monarchy and establish a republic, their ideological differences and approaches to governance placed them on a collision course. 
    The Jacobins emerged as a radical force advocating for centralized power, direct democracy, and the use of revolutionary violence to achieve their goals. They were named after their meeting place, the Jacobin Club, a former Dominican convent in Paris. The Jacobins attracted members who believed in strong government control, economic regulation, and the direct involvement of the lower classes in politics. They were heavily influenced by Enlightenment ideals, particularly the belief in equality and the general will of the people, as expressed by philosophers like Jean-Jacques Rousseau. The most prominent Jacobin leaders, including Maximilien Robespierre, Georges Danton, and Jean-Paul Marat, pushed for radical reforms such as the execution of King Louis XVI and the implementation of policies that favored the common people. 
    In contrast, the Girondins represented a more moderate and decentralized vision of the revolution. Many of their members came from the Gironde region, giving the faction its name, and they were often associated with the provincial bourgeoisie. The Girondins supported a constitutional monarchy in the early stages of the revolution but later advocated for a republican form of government with more power distributed among local authorities rather than concentrated in Paris.

    Egyptomania - Our Three Thousand...

    The world has always been fascinated with ancient Egypt. When the Romans conquered Egypt, it was really Egypt that conquered the Romans. Cleopatra captivated both Caesar and Marc Antony and soon Roman ladies were worshipping Isis and wearing vials of Nile water around their necks. What is it about ancient Egypt that breeds such obsession and imitation? Egyptomania explores the burning fascination with all things Egyptian and the events that fanned the flames—from ancient times, to Napoleon's Egyptian campaign, to the discovery of Tutankhamen's tomb by Howard Carter in the 1920s. For forty years, Bob Brier, one of the world's foremost Egyptologists, has been amassing one of the largest collections of Egyptian memorabilia and seeking to understand the pull of ancient Egypt on our world today. In this original and groundbreaking book, he explores our three-thousand-year-old fixation with recovering Egyptian culture and its meaning. He traces our enthrallment with the mummies that seem to have cheated death and the pyramids that as if they will last forever. Drawing on his personal collection—from Napoleon's twenty volume Egypt encyclopedia to Howard Carter's letters written from the Valley of the Kings as he was excavating—this is an inventive and mesmerizing tour of how an ancient civilization endures in ours today.

    Have you ever wondered what people without children do with all their free time and money? Do you assume that they must have a lot of both? The truth is more complex than that! Childfree people come from as many different backgrounds and life circumstances as people with children do. Some are partnered, and some are not. Some are well-educated, some aren't. Some are independently wealthy, and some are just scraping by. Dr. Zigmont's "Portraits of Childfree Wealth" is a collection of 26 vignettes based on interviews with Childfree people. He adds his own significant insights, as both a fellow Childfree professional and a CERTIFIED FINANCIAL PLANNER™. This book is an eye-opening look at the lives of people in the United States who deliberately chose not to become parents, and if you're in the same boat, you'll find a lot to relate to here. If you have children, you'll learn how the other half lives. And if you're a finance professional, you'll see how money still plays a role for people who don't have to worry about leaving assets to their children.  
    In Portraits of Childfree Wealth, Dr. Jay Zigmont, CFP®, interviews 26 individuals and couples to understand their lives. Each portrait provides a different perspective on Childfree Wealth from a diverse population across the US. There are stories from people who are barely making ends meet and others who have achieved FIRE (Financial Independence, Retire Early) or FILE (Financial Independence, Live Early). Being Childfree does not automatically make people rich, as we still suffer from income disparities. The difference is that if a Childfree person is barely making ends meet now, they would have drowned if they had a child.
