In this book, he discusses his firm conviction that intensive medical and other evidence, paired with specific information, in a sworn affidavit, from the Superintendent of Louisiana State Police, Francis Grevemberg, that Huey Long was in fact not shot by Dr. Carl Weiss, but was instead accidentally shot by a named bodyguard escorting Long. Dr. Pavy's book on this thought provoking controversy is a must read. Take a look inside to uncover what has been hidden from the public through an elaborate cover-up engendered by public corruption regarding the death of Senator Huey Long for over half a century.

Book excerpt: Huey Long (1893-1935) was one of the most extraordinary American politicians, simultaneously cursed as a dictator and applauded as a benefactor of the masses. A product of the poor north Louisiana hills, he was elected governor of Louisiana in 1928, and proceeded to subjugate the powerful state political hierarchy after narrowly defeating an impeachment attempt. The only Southern popular leader who truly delivered on his promises, he increased the miles of paved roads and number of bridges in Louisiana tenfold and established free night schools and state hospitals, meeting the huge costs by taxing corporations and issuing bonds. Soon Long had become the absolute ruler of the state, in the process lifting Louisiana from near feudalism into the modern world almost overnight, and inspiring poor whites of the South to a vision of a better life. As Louisiana Senator and one of Roosevelt's most vociferous critics, "The Kingfish," as he called himself, gained a nationwide following, forcing Roosevelt to turn his New Deal significantly to the left. But before he could progress farther, he was assassinated in Baton Rouge in 1935. Long's ultimate ambition, of course, was the presidency, and it was doubtless with this goal in mind that he wrote this spirited and fascinating account of his life, an autobiography every bit as daring and controversial as was The Kingfish himself.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Lake Charles: 1908-1926 Along the cool sequester'd vale of life, They kept the noiseless tenor of their way. September 23, 1996 KLM Flight 287 rolled to a seamless stop on the tarmac, and settled on its wheels under the translucent Moscow sky. A contingent of American heart surgeons and support staff blinked and stretched. Their leader was famous for dozing off as soon as the wheels were up on any flight of length, and more than one of his retinue had mimicked that feat on this last leg of their journey from Houston via Amsterdam. This was not the first sojourn to Russia for their Chief - that had been back in 1958, when the country had another name and quite another polity. Many other visits had followed, accompanied by accolades and fetes, mostly with a Cold War political undertone he neither shared nor acknowledged. By nature he was fond of reflecting on change and history, and he did not miss the significance of returning to this place, the both of them now so different, in a position to alter the life path of a man who, himself, was responsible for much of this country's metamorphosis. The President of Russia, Boris Yeltsin, was suffering from congestive heart failure and severe coronary artery disease. The situation was grave; he was not expected to live without open-heart surgery - coronary bypass - but it was not clear that he could survive the procedure itself. The leading Russian heart surgeons and cardiologists had asked this Houston team to come to Moscow to assess the risks and provide recommendations as to how to proceed. In the geopolitically-charged climate of the immediate post-Cold War period, bringing in a coterie of Americans as consultants on the medical care of the most powerful man in Russia provoked all manner of responses on both sides of the Atlantic. The world's major news organizations focused on the story, covering every aspect. This fuss was of little consequence to the team from Texas, however. They were there to do a job, and their very presence in the Russian capital was as much of a validation as any that they were the most qualified group in the world for the task"--

Book excerpt: The searing, visionary memoir of founding Black Panther Huey P. Newton, in a dazzling graphic package Tracing the birth of a revolutionary, Huey P. Newton's famous and oft-quoted autobiography is as much a manifesto as a portrait of the inner circle of America's Black Panther Party. From Newton's impoverished childhood on the streets of Oakland to his adolescence and struggles with the system, from his role in the Black Panthers to his solitary confinement in the Alameda County Jail, Revolutionary Suicide is unrepentant and thought-provoking in its portrayal of inspired radicalism.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "If you think historians are dull . . . you need to read Boulard. . . . A brilliant history written with the verve and style most authors can only envy, Huey Long Invades New Orleans is a treat."-Dr. Michael Thomason, managing editorGulf Coast Historical Review By 1934, the senator from Louisiana stood on the precipice of national power. His Share the Wealth club had made him a national figure, and he set his sights on the presidency. One thing stood in his way-New Orleans. If Huey P. Long wanted to be considered a legitimate candidate for the presidency, he needed the support of the entire state. Or did he? The emotional, volatile Long despised the prim and proper politicians in New Orleans. They, in turn, regarded him as a thug. Their mutual animosity was palpable, and the powder keg finally exploded when Long ordered 3,000 militiamen into New Orleans. Was his decision a sound political strategy or a reckless personal vendetta? In his meticulous search for the answer, Garry Boulard interviewed more than two dozen people involved with Long and the conflict. He also unearthed never-before-published photos that complement his dramatic narrative. The result is an in-depth examination of the Kingfish and his attack on the city that dared oppose him.

This book was released on 2015-08-08 with total page 86 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book has been prepared for the benefit of people who want the real truth concerning Huey P. Long, which truth has been kept from the public by authors, journalists, and historians. No book on the life of Huey Long has been accurate. All books that have been published concerning this great man have either been published by his enemies, his cynical observers or ignorant historians who have built their books out of the newspaper morgues. This book is written by one knowledgeable concerning his greatness who loved him and respected him and dares, in this volume, to tell things that have never been told before. William Howard Taft, while Chief Justice of the Supreme Court, said: "Huey P. Long is the most brilliant attorney to appear before me during my term as Chief Justice." Dr. Gerald L. K. Smith was with Mr. Long when he was shot. He was at his bedside when he died. He delivered the funeral oration over his grave.
