    The American Rebellion - Utopia Lost _____ America and England owe Benedict Arnold the ultimate apology for their most tragic ordeal and greatest mistake in the history of the world! _____ BENEDICT ARNOLD and DR. JOSEPH WARREN, were the unintentional creators of the United States of America. _____ If either man had decided not to be involved in the rebellion against England, there would not have been a Continental Congress, rebel army, or 'United States', and, just like most colonists, neither man thought of being independent of England. Seven months after JOSEPH WARREN created and directed the Continental Congress in Philadelphia, BENEDICT ARNOLD reached JOSEPH WARREN'S headquarters at Harvard College in Cambridge, Massachusetts. Delegates to only the second meeting of the so-called Continental Congress had not reached Philadelphia when JOSEPH WARREN promoted BENEDICT ARNOLD and directed him with a secret mission and plan for a solution to the rebellion. Reporting only to JOSEPH WARREN, BENEDICT ARNOLD could have subdued every important fort in North America, including Canada, and then reconciled with England. Without the interference of the Continental Congress, the American rebellion would have and should have ended in 1775. No one would have or could have done what BENEDICT ARNOLD did for his love of America, which unfortunately led to a fluke ending of the conflict, unintentional fracture of England's empire, and loss of the nearest possible utopia this world has ever known.

    von Larry Carli
    25,00 €

    The 1970's produced some of the greatest fighters in the history of professional boxing.Several of the champions in the 1970's including Muhammad Ali, Carlos Monzon, and Roberto Duran were considered by many boxing critics to have been the greatest fighters ever in their respective weight divisions.The Ali versus Frazier 1 fight in 1971 was called the Fight of the Century and it paved the way for other million dollar purses for fighters in other weight divisions.This book takes a close look at all the top fighters in each major weight division during this fabulous decade of boxing, and the author's choice for Fighter of the Decade, and Fight of the Decade.The author has also included a section on boxers in each major weight division who he feels have been unjustly bypassed for induction into boxing's Hall of Fame, due to the faulty selection process, and politics of boxing.

  • - A Mother in Training
    von Betty Auchard
    23,00 €

    A day after their wedding in 1949, Denny whisks his new bride, Betty, to the boys' dorm on a college campus in Nebraska, where they are to serve as houseparents and role models. The strict church-based campus prompts the young wife to act smarter than she thinks she is and holier than she knows she is. Coming from a down-to-earth family that indulged in much of what is forbidden by the Christian college (including drinking, smoking, cussing, and dancing) requires that she smooth out a lot of rough edges. In the process, Betty learns lessons as a surrogate mother to eleven high-spirited young men that will prepare her for the real thing. Reading Living with Twelve Men feels like time travel; it's a moral and emotional snapshot of mid-America in the 1950s. This was an era without television, cell phones, computers, and social media. The concerns of individuals in small-town middle America were so unlike those of the present day that the differences are breathtaking. Most of the time, we judge a book by its contents. This work speaks loudly by what isn't said, and the silence offers a priceless perspective on genuine human values. Living with Twelve Men is Betty Auchard at her best. - Charles D. Hayes, author, September University: Summoning Passion for an Unfinished Life, and A Mile North of Good and Evil. These stories are like an episode out of a good novel. You would not have to know the characters to appreciate the experiences and, most likely, you'll be reminded of your own past. People in the Midwest, in the days leading to our own time, were survivors. We're used to hearing, "Forget the past," but maybe it's not so bad to remember the past if in it one finds pleasant memories and laughter. Betty does that with both dignity and grace. I would recommend that you read the story to see for yourself. - Dr. J. Benton White, retired professor, San Jose State University Betty was born to write, even though she may not have figured that out until later in life. A captivating storyteller, she lures you in from the first sentence, and no matter how old you are, or in what era you grew up, you can identify with the thoughts and events she recounts with humor, poignancy, and great insight. - Nina L. Diamond, journalist, essayist, author, and former Independent Publisher Book Awards (IPPY Awards) judge, 2004-2011 About the Author: Betty Auchard, a retired art teacher, was sixty-eight when widowhood prompted her to begin writing. At the age of seventy- five, she completed her first memoir, Dancing in My Nightgow, which became an IPPY Award (Independent Publisher) finalist. The Home for the Friendless, published when she was eighty, received first-place awards for content and book design from the National Independent Publisher Awards (NIEA). Living with Twelve Men is Betty's 85th birthday present to herself, and she and her editor have already started work on a fourth book. The oldest of three children, Betty grew up in the Midwest and spent the early years of married life in Nebraska. When her husband, Denny, landed a position as a college professor at San Jose State University, they relocated to the Bay Area of California, where they raised four children and a herd of grandchildren. Betty continues to write in the family home.Books printed in the US and the UK.

    Time to put the oxygen mask on!I have spent more than 25 years training chemical dependency counselors and they are my favorite people. For the most part, they're either in personal addiction recovery or they are family members who have been touched by the chaos of addiction. The very passion that brings us to this work is the potential foundation for burnout and relapse if those issues are not identified and addressed throughout a counselor's career. I plan to address codependency from early attachment disruption perspective, which results in both codependent behaviors as well as immune system damage. When I see counselors relapse or abruptly leave a career they trained to enter I always wonder about the triggers they faced that they couldn't manage without imploding. Our clients and co-workers can put their finger on our unhealed wounds on a regular basis due to our ability to identify with them. In fact, our identification is a mixed blessing. I can draw compassion from my ability to identify. I can also step into my own blind spots and reactivity that may go unchecked without proper support and awareness. Working with a cognitively impaired, emotionally reactive and defensive population with profound trust issues is a challenge that only people with a calling will enter and remain. This book addresses the challenges and offers tools to help talented counselors remain in the addiction counseling profession. We need you. About the Author: Mary Crocker Cook, D.Min., LMFT, LPCC, LAADC, CADCII is the co-owner of Connections Counseling Associates in San Jose California, and is the Program Coordinator for the San Jose City College Alcohol and Drug Studies program she developed in 1990.
