  PROLOGUE – The Power of Quiet Leadership 
  In a world that celebrates loudness — loud ambition, loud success, and louder egos — there stands a man who has shown that quietness can move mountains. His name is Ratan Naval Tata. 
  He is not the kind of leader who dominates rooms or commands attention through power. Instead, he leads with silence, humility, and conviction. Yet, his influence has stretched across continents, industries, and generations. 
  To many outside India, he is the man who brought Jaguar Land Rover and Tetley Tea into an Indian fold — a symbol of a new, confident India on the global stage. But to those within his homeland, Ratan Tata represents something far more profound: the belief that business can be kind, success can be ethical, and greatness can be graceful. 
  His story is not one of inherited privilege, but of earned respect. 
  Not one of ruthless ambition, but of quiet courage. 
  This is the story of a man who built an empire not just with steel, tea, or cars — but with trust. 
  It is the story of a visionary who didn’t just change India’s business landscape, but also changed how the world looked at India. 
  This is Ratan Tata: The Gentle Titan — a story of integrity, resilience, and the art of staying human while standing tall.

  Austin Osman Spare - The Life...

  London has harbored many curious characters, but few more curious than the artist and visionary Austin Osman Spare (1886–1956). 
   
   
   
  A controversial enfant terrible of the Edwardian art world, the young Spare was hailed as a genius and a new Aubrey Beardsley, while George Bernard Shaw reportedly said "Spare's medicine is too strong for the average man." 
   
   
    
  But Spare was never made for worldly success and he went underground, falling out of the gallery system to live in poverty and obscurity south of the river. Absorbed in occultism and sorcery, voyaging into inner dimensions, and surrounding himself with cats and familiar spirits, he continued to produce extraordinary art while developing a magical philosophy of pleasure, obsession, and the subjective nature of reality. 
   
   
    
  Today Spare is both forgotten and famous, a cult figure whose modest life has been much mythologized since his death. This groundbreaking biographical study offers wide-ranging insights into Spare's art, mind, and world, reconnecting him with the art history that ignored him and exploring his parallel London; a bygone place of pub pianists, wealthy alchemists, and monstrous owls.

  For more than a hundred years, the Red Hook section of Brooklyn was Ground Zero for organized crime. Whoever controlled the piers controlled everything. From the infamous Irish gang known as The White Hand at the turn of the century, to the notorious Italian Gallo brothers who ran President Street—and everything else—generations later, the blood-soaked history of Red Hook is the story of American crime at its most powerful, corrupt, and coldly efficient. 
   
   
   
  It's all here: the brutal mob hits, bullet storms, and backstabbings of the most colorful cutthroats to ever terrorize the streets. A rogue's gallery of killers with nicknames like "The Mad Hatter," "The Executioner," "Wild Bill," and "Peg Leg." The Brooklyn bar fight that gave Al "Scarface" Capone his legendary scars. The godfather of America's first Sicilian crime family whose gruesomely mangled hand could scare men half to death. And, to bring it all home, the author's own eyewitness account of multiple shootings growing up as the son of a Mafia bodyguard. 
   
   
   
  Packed with jaw-dropping stories of public violence and personal vengeance, vivid insights into the Mafia's way of life, and shocking portraits of America's most wanted crime families, Red Hook is a must-listen for anyone fascinated by the history of organized crime in America.

  History of France - Significant...

  Kelly Mass

  This book consists of four titles, which are: 
  Franco-Prussian War - The Franco-Prussian War, also known as the Franco-German War or, in France, the War of 1870, was a pivotal conflict between the Second French Empire and the North German Confederation, which was led by the Kingdom of Prussia. This war lasted from 19 July 1870 to 28 January 1871, and its consequences would shape European geopolitics for decades. The primary cause of the war stemmed from France's desire to reaffirm its dominance in continental Europe, which had been seriously challenged after Prussia's decisive victory over Austria in the Austro-Prussian War of 1866. This defeat shifted the balance of power in Europe, making France anxious about its standing. 
  Jean-Jacques Rousseau - Jean-Jacques Rousseau, born in 1712 in Geneva, Switzerland, was a philosopher, author, and composer whose work had a profound impact on the intellectual and political landscape of the 18th century. He is best known for his political philosophy, which laid the groundwork for many of the principles that influenced the Enlightenment and later shaped the French Revolution.  
  The Basques - The Basques are an ethnic group indigenous to Southwestern Europe, distinguished by their unique genetic heritage, ancient language (Euskara), and distinct cultural practices. Their homeland, known as the Basque Country (Euskal Herria), spans both sides of the Pyrenees, covering areas in north-central Spain and southwestern France, and lies along the Bay of Biscay. 
  The Seven Years' War - The Seven Years' War (1756–1763) marked a global struggle for supremacy between two major powers of the time: Great Britain and France. This conflict unfolded across continents and influenced various colonial and European theaters, laying the groundwork for modern geopolitics.
