Book Synopsis Yankee Babylon by : MacDonald King Aston
Download or read book Yankee Babylon written by MacDonald King Aston and published by . This book was released on 2010-10-12 with total page 468 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Secularised and hidden away in a thousand useless history books, brimming with the Big Lie of the Yankee Myth, the myth of Lincoln, of perpetual war, of the holy dollar, and of the Puritans' City upon a Hill, is a real America. You won't find the real America in your history books, for those books are filled with the propaganda of the Yankee and his mythology. Casting a cold eye on the "Evil Twins" of the 1860s and 1960s, Yankee Babylon ruthlessly exposes the truth of both who we are and how we got here: not to a free republic of free men and women, but to an American Empire. To a Yankee Babylon.

Book excerpt: As Puss, Jr. travels through New Mother Goose Land to meet his father, he meets new people and has several adventures. All along the way, a little bird preceded him, singing verse to introduce the next character that Puss, Jr. will meet. The road to the Castle of the Lord of Carabas is difficult, for, as Mrs. Tittle Mouse explains, "New Mother Goose Country ... does not offer to us animals the loving care which we received from der Old Mother Goose." Tom Thumb, Jack (who planted the beanstalk), and others tell stories about their adventures. The hen that laid the golden eggs told her side of the story. Puss sat with the Fairy Godmother while Cinderella went to the ball. Mother Goose and her Gander stopped in on their way home, and give Puss, Jr. a ride since her house is on the way to the Castle. They took side trips to visit the Man in the Moon, and other familiar friends. Alas, by the end of the adventures in this book Puss, Jr. has not yet found his father, but perhaps they will meet in the next book.

Book Synopsis The Tyranny of Guilt by : Pascal Bruckner
Download or read book The Tyranny of Guilt written by Pascal Bruckner and published by Princeton University Press. This book was released on 2012-04-01 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Why the West must overcome its guilty conscience to foster a better global future Fascism, communism, genocide, slavery, racism, imperialism—the West has no shortage of reasons for guilt. And, indeed, since the Holocaust and the end of World War II, Europeans in particular have been consumed by remorse. But Pascal Bruckner argues that guilt has now gone too far. It has become a pathology, and even an obstacle to fighting today's atrocities. Bruckner, one of France's leading writers and public intellectuals, argues that obsessive guilt has obscured important realities. The West has no monopoly on evil, and has destroyed monsters as well as created them—leading in the abolition of slavery, renouncing colonialism, building peaceful and prosperous communities, and establishing rules and institutions that are models for the world. The West should be proud—and ready to defend itself and its values. In this, Europeans should learn from Americans, who still have sufficient self-esteem to act decisively in a world of chaos and violence. Lamenting the vice of anti-Americanism that grips so many European intellectuals, Bruckner urges a renewed transatlantic alliance, and advises Americans not to let recent foreign-policy misadventures sap their own confidence. This is a searing, provocative, and psychologically penetrating account of the crude thought and bad politics that arise from excessive bad conscience.

Download or read book Washington Babylon written by Mark Hyman and published by Post Hill Press. This book was released on 2019-10-22 with total page 486 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Since America’s founding, the nation’s capital has experienced more than its share of scandals; thankfully, Washington Babylon explores some of the dirtiest secrets that have occurred throughout US history. Some are from the earliest days of America’s founding and include the most famous people in history, like George Washington. Others are still fresh in our minds, as the dust has not even settled. In between, US history is littered with scandals from nearly all walks of life that were the most talked-about stories at the time. Many past scandals remain infamous, such as Watergate, Chappaquiddick, and Abscam. Other scandals that were once the biggest stories of the day have faded into obscurity. Washington Babylon reveals new details in some scandals that were not known when the story first broke, offering a whole new perspective for discussion. This is the most comprehensive collection of American scandals that will educate, entertain, shock, and perhaps, even titillate the reader.
