Now is our chance to connect with the past, shaping the outcome of the future, and turning it back in God's direction!

Book excerpt: A “supremely entertaining” (The New Yorker) exploration of who gets to record the world’s history—from Julius Caesar to William Shakespeare to Ken Burns—and how their biases influence our understanding about the past. There are many stories we can spin about previous ages, but which accounts get told? And by whom? Is there even such a thing as “objective” history? In this “witty, wise, and elegant” (The Spectator), book, Richard Cohen reveals how professional historians and other equally significant witnesses, such as the writers of the Bible, novelists, and political propagandists, influence what becomes the accepted record. Cohen argues, for example, that some historians are practitioners of “Bad History” and twist reality to glorify themselves or their country. “Scholarly, lively, quotable, up-to-date, and fun” (Hilary Mantel, author of the bestselling Thomas Cromwell trilogy), Making History investigates the published works and private utterances of our greatest chroniclers to discover the agendas that informed their—and our—views of the world. From the origins of history writing, when such an activity itself seemed revolutionary, through to television and the digital age, Cohen brings captivating figures to vivid light, from Thucydides and Tacitus to Voltaire and Gibbon, Winston Churchill and Henry Louis Gates. Rich in complex truths and surprising anecdotes, the result is a revealing exploration of both the aims and art of history-making, one that will lead us to rethink how we learn about our past and about ourselves.

Book excerpt: "There are many stories we can spin about the past, but which stories get told? And by whom? One human being can shape our understanding of the past through the prism of his or her own beliefs and prejudices. And in this book Cohen reveals how historians--and other critical witnesses such as the writers of the Bible, novelists, and political propagandists--influence accepted accounts of the human experience. The depth of Cohen's inquiry, and the delight he takes in his subjects--even the practitioners of what he calls "Bad History," those villains who twist reality to glorify themselves and conceal their own terrible behavior--make this an authoritative and supremely entertaining volume. In The History-Makers, Cohen investigates the published works and private utterances of our greatest historical thinkers to discover the influences and biases that informed their scholarship and views of the world, and which in so many ways have informed ours. From the origins of journalism through television and the digital age, The History-Makers is packed with captivating figures brought to vivid life, from Thucydides and Tacitus to Voltaire and Gibbon, Ulysses Grant, Winston Churchill and Mary Beard. Rich in character, complex truths, and surprising anecdotes, the result is a unique exploration of both the art and craft of history-making that disturbs the dust on history and makes us think anew of our past and ourselves"--

Book excerpt: A tale of border warfare, military and erotic, set in the twenty-third century, where the women rule the kingdom and the men play war games. This is the fictional memoir of Wat Dryhope - edited, annotated and commented upon. History has come to an end, war is regulated as if it's all a game. But Wat, the History Maker himself, does not play entirely by the rules, and when a woman, Delilah Puddock, joins the fray, this 'utopian' history is further enlivened. Alasdair Gray cleverly plays with the notion and writing of history, as well as perennial modern debates on war, sexism and society - entertaining and thought-provoking, this is a delightful satire illustrated throughout by the author.

Book excerpt: Not many people can say their career has placed them center stage at as many historical happenings as Christy Bowe can. Bowe has photographed four presidents throughout their administrations, has captured the horrors of 9/11, and photographed three historical impeachments as well. Today, she is founder of ImageCatcher News Services, and her work can be found in prominent publications such as The New York Times and Rolling Stone. Now she aims her lens at the 46th President of the United States of America, Joe Biden. After being kicked out of Catholic school as a child, Bowe found her passion in capturing human moments in the biggest events. As 'Eyes That Speak' shares snapshots of significant moments in Bowe's career, she recounts the hardships and lessons that came from each, and their influence on her style and her photography. Her passion and warmth come through as she narrates the interactions and personal experiences that have altered her as a human and shaped her philosophy as a photographer. Christy Bowe is a passionate, determined photojournalist who never lost the fire that got her kicked out of Catholic school. 'Eyes That Speak' is a loving retelling of not just her experience as a photojournalist but of the kindness and compassion rampant in even the most competitive and high staked working environment. Her book is a reminder that humans are kinder than we know.
