Volume 2 of this series focuses on society and culture. Did you know that there were once Human Zoos? Did you know Abner Doubleday did not invent baseball? If you are a fan of history, you will love this book. The stories it contains are fascinating but somehow do not make it into the traditional classroom. Things are not always the way we have learned.

If you are a fan of history, you will love this book. The stories it contains are fascinating but somehow do not make it into the traditional classroom. Without this book, many of these stories would remain buried and our true history would be lost forever. From the days of slavery through to today, things are not the way we have learned. If you are a conspiracy theorist, you will also love this book. While all the stories are true and provable, many will have the intrigue and excitement of the best conspiracy theories. There are many reasons why history is lost, forgotten, or buried. Often the political nature of contemporary events requires a less than truthful narrative in order to meet the political demands of each particular time era. The narrative is passed on long enough that it is accepted as the fact. Digging a little deeper, though, will expose the real truth. Some stories are so sensitive that the government withholds the official documentation of the history. Much of this information is released later, but often goes unnoticed. Some is never released. In times of war, the winning side writes history. Sometimes that history is not entirely truthful. Looking at the entire picture requires accepting that the losing side also has a story, a history that needs to be told. No matter how learned you are, I guarantee this book will surprise and delight your mind and expose you to realities. Welcome to the "Real History, and the Lies We Were Told". Be sure to look for the entire series. 1. Science and Technology, 2. Culture and Society. 3. Military and Government

North Korea is a land of mystery and lost potential. Although we are taught that they are an isolated nation, they actually have many allies and are active in many world conflicts, although American news would never portray them as having such global influence. North Korea is far from the isolate, broken country many of us assume it is. They have many assets in place that could potentially bring an end to the world as we know it. This book was written as a warning to those who dismiss the dangers North Korea poses.

Catching a Clinton is no easy task. They are in many ways above the law and are allowed to play by their own rules. Its obvious crimes were committed.

This book, after exhaustive research, provides the answer to the question which goes in answered, Why Hillary Isn't Locked Up. Kirk Summers (Verified Purchase)5 stars Really good perspective I, like so many Americans, have been very frustrated that we haven't "locked her up" yet. This book provides a good rationale as to why justice may have to be delayed. I enjoyed the book Karen (Verified Purchase)5 stars This is a quick read for anyone interested in having the laundry list of "deplorable" things HC has done spelled out in plain English. Aside from a couple omissions of naming those individuals that have actually distanced themselves from HC due to her "deplorable", the book is valuable for making the arguments with those who refuse to admit how deep the well truly is. Kindle Customer (Verified Purchase)5 stars Great current overview of the challenges to convict Hillary Dr. John Bridges does a good job rounding up many of the corrupt practices of the Democrats and establishment politicians for us to understand for the first time in the light of day Amazon Customer (Verified Purchase)5 stars Really does a great job of explaining all different reasons she isn't locked up Great perspective on the challenges of the legal process. Really enjoyed this book.

Nancy Pelosi is one of the most corrupt politicians in Washington. She earns her money through "legal" insider trading. She blindly supports Obamacare even when she cannot articulate anything about it. She gets advice from leaders of countries that support terrorism in how we identify as terrorist groups. She supports the country's largest abortion provider and justifies her support by saying she loves babies. She advocates for illegal alien rights while exploiting them on her vineyard. She complains about confederate statues even though her father dedicated them. Given her district is 92% democrats, she is here to stay.

Unfortunately, those messages are often so disconnected from mainstream views and reality that confusion would have been preferable. This book explores the confusion, craziness corruption, and anger that makes Maxine Waters... SPECIAL

The 2016 election was certainly filled with its daily share of surprises. Hillary Clinton ran the most expensive campaign in history and despite the cards being stacked in her favor, the polls showing her winning by a landslide and a strong assumption amongst many that her election was already a given, she lost and lost big. The shock-waves amongst her followers are still in full motion. Her new book "What Happened" reflects the shock. However, unless you were living in a bubble, you should know what happened. Clinton was living in a bubble of self-entitlement. Her arrogance and smugness were apparent to everyone outside of her bubble. She could not connect with her core base which flocked to Bernie Sanders; an obscure, self-proclaimed socialist. Despite the dirty tricks of the Democratic National Committee and Clinton herself, she never regained the allegiance of her core base. She entered the race with much baggage. Scandals follow the Clinton's and while none have stuck to them, yet the sheer volume of scandals and mysterious deaths associated with those scandals is enough to raise eyebrows of anyone but her diehard supporters. She surrounded herself with people who told her only what they thought she wanted to hear. Either they were inside her bubble or simply did not want to upset her and face her oft reported temper. Many of the people in her inner circle also became subjects of various scandals during the campaign as well. The media fed her delusion as well. Their hatred for the Republican candidate skewed their reporting in her favor through both stories and polls. They also prevented Clinton from glimpsing outside her bubble. This book will help make sense of the 2016 election and the factors that contributed to Clinton's loss. Some things you may already know but others are sure to come to you as a shock. The book is factual but will certainly allow you plenty of room for your own speculation and guidance in finding additional resources.

Fancher 5 stars (Verified Purchase) This book beats Hillary's by the popular vote Very accurate...and still this books 5 star reviews beats the 1 stars by the popular vote (probably versus hers to if amazon hadn't removed all her books 1 star reviews) Dodger26 5 stars (Verified Purchase)Enjoyed reading this book and understanding the truth. There are references that you can go to see the truth. I like books like this. And I like authors that don't whine and lie just to try to sway you. HERE ARE THE TROLLS AND THE CREATIVE NAMES THEY HIDE BEHIND J. A. Stoner 1 starSo, "Dr." Bridges must be a Doctor of Lying and Hatred.
