This book is a gripping account of the murky world of the international oil industry and its role in world politics. Scandals about oil are familiar to most of us. From George W. Bush's election victory to the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan, US politics and oil enjoy a controversially close relationship. The US economy relies upon the cheap and unlimited supply of this single fuel. William Engdahl takes the reader through a history of the oil industry's grip on the world economy.

Thomas Reppetto - American Mafia, A History of Its Rise to Power (2004).jpg

Organized crime-the Italian American kind-has long been a source of popular entertainment and legend. Now, Thomas Reppetto provides a balanced history of the Mafia's rise-from the 1880s to the post-WWII era-that is as exciting and readable as it is authoritative. Structuring his narrative around a series of case histories featuring such infamous characters as Lucky Luciano and Al Capone, Reppetto draws on a lifetime of field experience and access to unseen documents to show us a locally grown Mafia. The Italian American crime families were shaped by conditions in big cities, but it wasn't until the 1920s, thanks to prohibition, that the Mafia assumed what we now consider its defining characteristics, especially its octopus-like tendency to infiltrate industry and government. At mid-century the Kefauver Commission declared the Mafia synonymous with Union Siciliana; in the 1960s the FBI finally admitted the Mafia's existence under the name La Cosa Nostra. American Mafia is a fascinating look at America's most compelling criminal subculture from an author who is intimately acquainted with both sides of the street.

Norman, D. Livergood, Michelle Mairesse - Realizin g a New Culture (2007).jpg

Worldwide, thinking people are faced with the terror of the demonic cabal controlling America and the world. This cabal is engaged in imperialistic conquest of other nations and the obliteration of the American democratic system. We must bring into realization an entirely new culture composed of new physical, psychological, and metaphysical principles and structures. We have no other recourse than to realize a new culture. The criminal cabal has corrupted and contaminated the old culture to the point that if we locate our primary being in that culture we'll become as insane and corrupt as they. To realize a new culture, we must understand the essence of the philosophical, economic, political, and social realities facing us. For example, unlike the American colonists, we no longer have a free press to use in our struggle against oppression; right-wing Republicans own most American media outlets. "Humankind has existed within several different 'cultures' during our time on this earth," state Livergood and Mairesse, "and similar to what was said in the Declaration of Independence, when a culture and its causative world-view become destructive of human welfare, it is the right-and the necessity-of humans to disaffirm the old world and bring forth a new culture."

Barbara Selznick - Global Television, Co-Producing Culture (2008).jpg

The face of television broadcasting is changing in ways that are both profound and subtle. "Global Television" uncovers the particular processes by which the international circulation of culture takes place, while addressing larger cultural issues such as identity formation. Focusing on how the process of internationally made programming such as "Highlander: The Series" and "The Odyssey" - amusingly dubbed "Europudding" and "commercial white bread" - are changing television into a transnational commodity, Barbara Selznick considers how this mode of production - as a means by which transnational television is created - has both economic rewards and cultural benefits as well as drawbacks.drawbacks."Global Television" explores the ways these international co-productions create a global culture as well as help form a national identity. From British "brand" programming (e.g, Cracker) that airs on A&E in the U.S. to children's television programmes such as Plaza Sesamo, and documentaries, Selznick indicates that while the style, narrative, themes, and ideologies may be interesting, corporate capitalism ultimately affects and impacts these programmes in significant ways.

Alan Elsner - Gates of Injustice, The Crisis in Am erica's Prisons (2006).jpg

Gates of Injustice is an extraordinarily compelling expose of the American prison system now completely updated in this new paperback editon: how more than 2,000,000 Americans came to be incarcerated; what it's really like on the inside; what it's like for the families left on the outside; and how an enormous "prison-industrial complex" has grown to support and promote imprisonment in place of virtually every other alternative. Reuters journalist Alan Elsner shows how prisons really work, how race-based gangs are able to control institutions and prey on weaker inmates, and how an epidemic of abuse and brutality has exploded across American prisons. Readers will discover the plight of 300,000 mentally ill people in prisons, virtually abandoned with little medical treatment. They'll also meet the fastest growing segment of the prison population: women. Readers go inside "supermax" prisons that cut inmates off from all human contact, and uncover the official corruption and brutality that riddles jail systems in major cities like Chicago, Boston, Los Angeles, and New York.Finally, they'll learn prisons accelerate the spread of infectious diseases throughout the broader society--just one of the many ways the prison epidemic touches everyone, even if they've never met anyone who's gone to jail.

Frederick J. Pohl - Atlantic Crossings Before Colu mbus (1961).jpg

The author, who has devoted years to the study of pre-Columbian exploration, and who has written extensively on the subject, takes the readers on a personally conducted tour to many sites of early landings and settlements in North America. He presents some startling and apparently conclusive facts concerning several expeditions, beginning with the Phoenicians. He outlines what could have happened... Mai multe and then offers ""proof"" of what seems actually to have occurred. Most of it is convincing to the lay reader, although without thorough archeological and linguistic orientation, one is occasionally confronted with what appears to be somewhat far-fetched interpretations. However, St. Brendan of Ireland, Leif Erikson and his fearless, bloody half-sister Freydis, and Henry Sinclair, Earl of Orkney, as well as less well-known figures of the past and present all spring to vivid life in these immensely readable pages. The author also discusses at length various inscriptions and runes, including the Heavener Runestone in Oklahoma, the Kensington Runestone in Minnesota, and the Military Effigy at Westford, Massachusetts. Numerous diagrams and reproductions of alphabets, runes and the monuments themselves greatly aid the reader in this fascinating, sometimes controversial study. A comprehensive bibliography is given for the benefit of those who wish to go into the matter further.

David Halberstam - The Coldest Winter, America and the Korean War (2007).jpg

David Halberstam's magisterial and thrilling The Best and the Brightest was the defining book for the Vietnam War. More than three decades later, Halberstam used his unrivalled research and formidable journalistic skills to shed light on another dark corner in our history: the Korean War. The Coldest Winter is a successor to The Best and the Brightest, even though in historical terms it precedes it.Halberstam considered The Coldest Winter the best book he ever wrote, the culmination of forty-five years of writing about America's postwar foreign policy.Up until now, the Korean War has been the black hole of modern American history.The Coldest Winter changes that.Halberstam gives us a masterful narrative of the political decisions and miscalculations on both sides. He charts the disastrous path that led to the massive entry of Chinese forces near the Yalu, and that caught Douglas MacArthur and his soldiers by surprise. He provides astonishingly vivid and nuanced portraits of all the major figures -- Eisenhower, Truman, Acheson, Kim, and Mao, and Generals MacArthur, Almond, and Ridgway. At the same time, Halberstam provides us with his trademark highly evocative narrative journalism, chronicling the crucial battles with reportage of the highest order.At the heart of the book are the individual stories of the soldiers on the front lines who were left to deal with the consequences of the dangerous misjudgments and competing agendas of powerful men. We meet them, follow them, and see some of the most dreadful battles in history through their eyes.

New Vanguard 056 - Angus Konstam - Union River Iro nclad 1861-65 (2002).jpg

At the start of the American Civil War, neither side had warships on the Mississippi River, which was a vital strategic artery. In what would prove the vital naval campaign of the war, both sides fought for control of the river. While the Confederates relied on field fortifications and small gunboats, the Union built a series of revolutionary river ironclads. First commissioned in January 1862, these ironclads spent the next two years battling for control of the Mississippi, fighting in a string of decisive engagements that altered the entire course of the war. This book explains how these vessels worked, how they were constructed, how they were manned and how they were fought.

Gene Healy - The Cult of the Presidency, America's Dangerous Devotion to Executive Power (2008).jpg

The Bush years have justifiably given rise to fears of a new Imperial Presidency. Yet despite the controversy surrounding the administration's expansive claims of executive power, both Left and Right agree on the boundless nature of presidential responsibility. The Imperial Presidency is the price we seem to be willingly and dangerously agreeable to pay the office the focus of our national hopes and dreams. Interweaving historical scholarship, legal analysis, and cultural commentary, The Cult of the Presidency argues that the Presidency needs to be reined in, its powers checked and supervised, and its wartime authority put back under the oversight of the Congress and the courts. Only then will we begin to return the Presidency to its proper constitutionally limited role.

Raymond G. Helmick, S.J. - Negotiating Outside the Law, Why Camp David Failed (2004).jpg

A startling account of the arguments, the relationships and the strategies that played out over the summer of 2000. Based upon personal correspondence and position papers with all three leaders, this book offers a unique account of the real reasons behind the failure of Camp David. As its title suggests, this book's leitmotif is that peacemaking can succeed only if based on international law, and that Israel is responsible for the failure of the 2000 Camp David negotiations between itself and the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) because its positions were inconsistent with international law. As Joel Singer of Sidley Austin Brown&Wood LLPs, wrote, the justification presented by Helmick (a Jesuit priest, who makes no claim to a legal education) for his theory is both legally and logically flawed.

Robert Alan Goldberg - Enemies Within, The Culture of Conspiracy in Modern America (2001).jpg

There is a hunger for conspiracy news in America. Hundreds of Internet websites, magazines, newsletters, even entire publishing houses, disseminate information on invisible enemies and their secret activities, subversions, and coverups. Those who suspect conspiracies behind events in the news--the crash of TWA Flight 800, the death of Marilyn Monroe--join generations of Americans, from the colonial period to the present day, who have entertained visions of vast plots. In this enthralling book Robert Goldberg focuses on five major conspiracy theories of the past half-century,examining how they became widely popular in the United States and why they have remained so. In the post–World War II decades conspiracy theories have become more numerous, more commonly believed, and more deeply embedded in our culture, Goldberg contends. He investigates conspiracy theories regarding the Roswell UFO incident, the Communist threat, the rise of the Antichrist, the assassination of President John Kennedy, and the Jewish plot against black America, in each case taking historical, social, and political environments into account. Conspiracy theories are not merely the products of a lunatic fringe, the author shows. Rather, paranoid rhetoric and thinking are disturbingly central in America today. With media validation and dissemination of conspiracy ideas, and federal government behavior that damages public confidence and faith, the ground is fertile for conspiracy thinking.
