    So, you think you know what happened during the Crusades. But do you really? 
It’s a good question to ask since there are plenty of misconceptions regarding what caused the Crusades, let alone what actually took place during their duration. In this audiobook, we seek to clear up many of these questions and provide you with a concise and accurate history of the Crusades. Much of the history of the Crusades has been obscured through the years through opinionated conjecture. We attempt to set the record straight in as unbiased a portrayal as possible. 
In this audiobook, we tell you what happened and let you decide for yourselves what it was all worth. The Crusades were a call to defend Eastern Christians and aid Christian pilgrims in the Holy Land. It was only once the massive earthquake of Christian crusaders was unleashed from the West that the Crusades morphed into something altogether different. This audiobook explores how the scope and ideology of the Crusades evolved over time, from the conquest of Jerusalem during the First Crusade to the fall of the Crusader States. 
We also take a look at other instances in which Crusades were made, such as the famous Northern Crusades and the Reconquista of Portugal and Spain. If you would like to learn more about what the Crusades were all about, what caused them to take place, and how it all ended up, this audiobook has you covered! 
In this audiobook, you will learn about the following:How the Crusades actually beganThe initial objectives of the crusadersHow the Crusades evolved over timeThe monastic orders involved in the CrusadesThe Kingdom of Jerusalem and its important rulersThe Northern CrusadesThe ReconquistaAnd so much more!

    A fascinating history of an ancient place.
From its first mention in legend in the Book of Invasions, through early Christian monastic settlements, castles and grand residences, Fenian raids and the Battle of Tallaght, there has been huge change in Tallaght. In more recent times it has seen car and motorcycle racing, an aerodrome, the rise and fall of a chocolate factory and a pioneering telecommunications firm. The massive population explosion and rapid modernisation towards the end of the twentieth century means this once-tiny village in Dublin's foothills is now home to over 80,000 people.
Richly illustrated with period photographs and original drawings by Michael O'Brien, Albert Perris tells the often-surprising story of Tallaght.

    On July 28, 1841, the body of Mary Rogers, a twenty-year-old cigar girl, was found floating in the Hudson—and New York's unregulated police force proved incapable of solving the crime. One year later, a struggling writer named Edgar Allan Poe decided to take on the case—and sent his fictional detective, C. Auguste Dupin, to solve the baffling murder of Mary Rogers in "The Mystery of Marie Rogêt."

    One of three volumes responding to the 7 October attack, Antisemitic Discourse focuses on the ideology that motivated it and the antisemitism that shaped many responses to it. 
It examines the provenance of the Jew-hatred, from English history to Palestinian Islamism; from toxic 19th century ‘Jewish Question’ rhetoric to the perversion of the Trotskyist tradition that allowed parts of the left to embrace antisemitism. It includes Howard Jacobson’s lecture of 22 October on antisemitism and it focuses on what was significant about this attack. There is discussion from Britain, Germany, Poland, and Norway, and a linguistic account of responses. 
This work will appeal to scholars, students and activists with an interest in antisemitism, Jewish studies and the politics of Israel.

    Narrated by the author, this empowering spiritual philosophy audiobook contains seven of Story Waters' most popular introductory texts that cover a wide variety of topics and give a comprehensive overview of his core teachings. These texts were updated and expanded in 2024. This is the first book of the ‘No Religion: Consciousness Creates Reality’ compendium. The seven texts in 'The Book of Introductions' are:Chapter 1: Introduction by Seth (as originally channeled by Jane Roberts).Chapter 2: Imagined (about John Lennon, the power of imagination, and the origins of this book).Chapter 3: The Messenger (the relationship between spirit, the embodied self, and wider eternal consciousness).Chapter 4: Gnosticism & the Infinite Library (how the Gnostic/channeling process works).Chapter 5: Loving Unconsciousness (how we form our mortal self through the use of selective unconsciousness).Chapter 6: Open Your Mind (an invitation for you to have your own adventure in consciousness)."These texts have been drawn from two decades of writing — from in-depth, formal spiritual philosophy … to accessible short-form articles ... to stream-of-consciousness texts … to adapted transcripts of my spoken messages. They describe a belief system that has evolved from receiving thousands of hours of gnostic communication/channeling from the wider reality — the non-physical, timeless state of consciousness the human experience continually births from. These beliefs outline how all truth is subjective & how we are all vessels of experience. Along with your current life experiences, your diverse ‘contents’ include the other lifetimes that were instrumental in forming your intention for this life. The reality you are creating must be met & integrated, regardless of whether you identify its contents as positive or negative. It is a gift of self-transformation you have given to yourself." - from Chapter 1: Introduction by Seth.
