1. The First World War - by John Reegan 2000

Despite the avalanche of books written about the First World War in recent years, there have been comparatively few books that have concentrated on delivering the big picture--a comprehensive account of the war and its campaigns from start to finish--and this book fills the gap superbly. As readers familiar with John Keegan's previous books, such as the The Face Battle, Six Armies in Normandy, and The Second World War, will know, Keegan is a historian of the old school. He has no earth-shattering new theories to challenge the status quo, no first-person accounts to tug on the emotions; what he does have, though, is the gift for talking the lay person through the twists and turns of a complex narrative in a way that is never less than accessible or engaging. Keegan never tries to ram his learning down your throat. Where other authors have struggled to explain how Britain could ever allow itself to be dragged into such a war in 1914, Keegan keeps it practical. The level of communications that we enjoy today just didn't exist then, and so it was much harder to keep track of what was going on. By the time a message had finally reached the person in question, the situation may have changed out of all recognition. Keegan applies this same "cock-up" theory of history to the rest of the war, principally the three great disasters at Gallipoli, the Somme, and Passchendaele. The generals didn't send all those troops to their death deliberately; they did so out of incompetence, ineptitude, and because they had no idea of what was actually going on at the front. Whether deliberate or not, though, the end result was nearly one million dead British and Commonwealth soldiers. The First World War is not afraid to point the finger at those generals who deserve it, but even Keegan has to admit he doesn't have all the answers. If it all seems so obviously futile and such a massive waste of life now, he asks, how could it have seemed worthwhile back then? Why did so many people carry on, knowing they would die? Why indeed. --John Crace --This text refers to the Paperback edition.

2. Secret History: Hidden Forces That Shaped the Past - by Joel Levy 2005

From the dirty dealings of the Louisiana Purchase and the Iran-Contra affair to the Trojan Horse and the research race to the moon, this examination proves that much of world history can be traced directly to classified plots and shadowy figures.

4. Discovering the Mysteries of Ancient America: Lost History And Legends, Unearthed And Explored - by David Hatcher Childress, Zecharia Sitchin, Wayne May, Andrew Collins, Frank Joseph 2006

The nursery rhyme begins, "In fourteen hundred and ninety two, Columbus sailed the ocean blue." Less well-known is the line that follows: "…to learn if the old maps were true." How can there be "old maps" of a land no one knew existed? Were others here before Columbus? What were their reasons for coming and what unexplained artifacts did they leave behind?

The oceans were highways to America rather than barriers, and when discoverers put ashore, they were greeted by unusual inhabitants. In Discovering the Mysteries of Ancient America, the author of The Atlantis Encyclopedia turns his sextant towards this hemisphere. Here is a collection of the most controversial articles selected from seventy issues of the infamous Ancient American magazine. They range from the discovery of Roman relics in Arizona and California's Chinese treasure, to Viking rune-stones in Minnesota and Oklahoma and the mysterious religions of ancient Americans. Many questions will be raised including:

What role did extraterrestrials have in the lives of ancient civilizations?

What ancient pyramids and towers tell us about the people who built them?

Are they some sort of portals to another dimension?

What prehistoric technologies have been discovered, and what can they tell us about early settlers, their religious beliefs, and possible other-worldly visitors?

Did El Dorado exist, and what of the legendary Fountain of Youth?

Was Atlantis in Cuba?

What are America’s lost races and what happened to them?

Discovering the Mysteries of Ancient America brings to the fore the once-hidden true past of America’s earliest civilizations

Frank Joseph is the author of The Atlantis Encyclopedia (New Page Books), as well as a dozen other books on history, prehistory, and metaphysics. He has been the editor-in-chief of Ancient American magazine since its first issue in 1993. He lives in Wisconsin.

Wayne May is the founder-publisher of Ancient American. Laura Lee is the award-winning producer and host of the nationally syndicated "The Laura Lee Show". David Hatcher Childress wrote the best-selling Lost Cities series. Zecharia Sitchin is the author of the best-selling Earth Chronicles series. Andrew Collins is world-renowned for his consistent bestsellers, including Gateway to Atlantis.

5. The Jesus Mysteries: Was the "Original Jesus" a Pagan God? - by Timothy Freke, Peter Gandy 2001

“Whether you conclude that this book is the most alarming heresy of the millennium or the mother of all revelations, The Jesus Mysteries deserves to be read.”
-- Fort Worth Star -Telegram

What if . . .
* there were absolutely no evidence for the existence of a historical Jesus?
* for thousands of years Pagans had also followed a Son of God?
* this Pagan savior was also born of a virgin on the twenty-fifth of December before three shepherds, turned water into wine at a wedding, died and was resurrected, and offered his body and blood as a Holy Communion?
* these Pagan myths had been rewritten as the gospel of Jesus Christ?
* the earliest Gnostic Christians knew that the Jesus story was a myth?
* Christianity turned out to be a continuation of Paganism by another name?

6. Earth's Outer Atmosphere: Bordering Space - by Gregory Vogt 2006

7. Cooking with Cannabis: The Most Effective Methods of Preparing Food and Drink with Marijuana, Hashish, and Hash Oil - by Adam Gottlieb 1993

I want to express my hopes that you enjoy my book, which is a collection of comic essays, some of which have appeared in the New Yorker, and the New York Times (I was published in the York Times, and when the New one came along, I was very excited). The book has also received many glowing reviews, despite the lousy one a customer has written. This is because that particular reader, I have discovered, read the book upside down. This was a mistake on the reader's part. Anyway, I hope you enjoy the book.

8. The Herbal Home Remedy Book: Simple Recipes for Tinctures, Teas, Salves, Tonics, and Syrups - By Joyce A. Wardwell 1998

Use 25 common herbs to make simple herbal remedies, then use those remedies to relieve common illnesses and enhance general health and well-being.

Endorsed by Rosemary Gladstar, renowned herbalist and author of Herbal Healing for Women, this book of "homespun alchemy" bursts with easy recipes for medicinal wines, herbal oils, salves, tonics, syrups, throat drops--you name it. From the guidelines for gathering medicinal plants to instructions for tincture preparation, Joyce Wardwell conveys her love and respect for herbs. She comes from a long line of herbalists: her great-great-grandmother Jane learned the herbal craft from the Ojibway in Minnesota; Jane's mother was condemned for witchcraft and her husband was hung for it during the Salem, Massachusetts, Witch Trials. But there's nothing to fear from the Remedy Book: recipes are made primarily from the 25 most common herbs, and instructions are so clear they're nearly foolproof. The flu, insomnia, colic, menopause, and sore muscles are all covered. Any household with children will find the "herbal home medicine chest" invaluable, with treatments for everyday ailments such as colds and coughs, burns, bug bites, bruises, and strains. The publisher, Storey Publications, is known for its practicality and environmental awareness, and the book is printed on lovely cream-colored recycled paper.

10. Time and the Technosphere: The Law of Time in Human Affairs By José Argüelles 2002

In Time and the Technosphere, Jose Arguelles presents a groundbreaking study that distinguishes the natural time of the cosmos from the artificial mechanistic time under which we currently live. Arguelles defines the actual nature of time as the frequency of synchronization. Applying this Law of Time to an understanding of the entire system of life on Earth, he shows that in order to not destroy Earth's ability to sustain life, we must change our definition of time and adopt a natural harmonic calendar based on the 13-moon 28-day cycle. Until the creation of the Gregorian calendar and the 60-minute hour, most of humanity lived by the 28-day cycle of natural time. The adoption of artificial time has subjected us to a 12:60 time frequency that governs the entire global industrialized civilization-the technosphere. With the collapse of the Twin Towers on September 11, a fissure was created in this artificial technosphere, opening up the noosphere (Earth's mental envelope).

Humanity has a golden opportunity to leave the strife of the past and enter a time of peace by adopting a harmonious natural calendar that will repair the damages caused by the irregular tempo of technospheric time. Our last best chance to adopt this natural time and step into the bright new future promised by the galactic shift of 2012 is the Great Calendar Change of 2004, a new discovery based on the author's mathematical research into the Mayan calendar first begun in his landmark work The Mayan Factor. In Time and the Technosphere, Arguelles reveals the clear distinction between third-dimensional astronomical time and the fourth-dimensional synchronic order of the Law of Time, which holds enormous potential for the future of humanity.

11. Marine Geology: Exploring the New Frontiers of the Ocean (The Living Earth) - by Jon Erickson 2002

It looks at several ideas for the origin of the Earth, continents and oceans, and how these processes fit into the origin of the universe. From gigantic submarine canyons to ocean volcanoes, this volume covers the entire realm of undersea landscapes and life forms.

12. Mars,Lord Maitreya,The Ascended Masters & Strong Delusion

In teaching we will be examining a very important tenant of the end
time delusion relating to the recently released NASA photos of the surface of Mars
(taken from the “Viking Mars Probe”). If you haven’t heard of these photos you really
need to listen to this teaching as Satan is setting mankind up for the greatest,
seductive delusion the world has ever known. We will also be exploring how this
deception is integrally tied into the emergence of the antichrist and even WWIII. You
will be shown how evil figures (who call themselves “Ascended Masters”) are poised
to make their emergence most likely in conjunction with WWIII. We will be looking at
various “Ascended Masters” by name (ie: Lord Maitreya, Master Jesus Sananda,
Master Mary Magda, Ascended Master Mary, etc.) and see who they pretend to
represent and what their message is. You will be shocked. We will also see how the
Lord Jesus Christ predicted that as in the days of Noah, so shall it be in the days of
the coming of the son of man. So we will look at what was happening in Noah’s days
to discern what to expect in the day and time we are living in. For most of you this will
be the first time you have every heard such information but we will prove that the
Bible clearly predicted this end time scenario to be forthcoming. There is much more
that is covered in this teaching, so please arm yourselves with this vital knowledge.

13. Phoenix Journal #172 - By Gyeorgos Ceres Hatonn

There is little I can say that is not said above regarding your position in life as it is passing by your sleepy
eyes. How much will you miss while your eyes are focused on Atlanta in late Summer? Do you think the
people in Justus, Montana are watching the “summer games” today? I can promise you that they are
NOT.
Since legislatures and politicians cannot dictate morality, do you not think it is time to stop standing aside
and silently watching and take up your pens and express dismay at what you have become as a nation?
You will feel ever so much better for having had at least ONE outspoken opinion out of the confusion of
mindset.
Because this will be a very short week for writing and long on other mind-boggling judicial harangues, let
us get part of Calvin Burgin’s book to use as this “Foreword” and also to allow us to not get too far in
arrears in offering this information. I want you to realize that we are always asking that you gain knowledge
and WISDOM, not take up arms. If, however, you stand forth and speak—let it be with informed
knowledge and not just more lies and false perceptions.
A lie which is foisted off by good men in their false beliefs does NOT A TRUTH MAKE! Slavery exists
when and where MAN does not KNOW truth.

15. Prince Charles' Global Nazi "Hitler Youth" - by JOHN D. CHRISTIAN 2007

a presentation of web-site references showing how Prince Charles will soon become the New World Order Nazi “Fuhrer”and “CHAMPION"

I have long believed that Prince Charles’ Prince’s Trust charity is rapidly expanding to become the
nucleus of a gigantic, modern, world, Nazi “Hitler Youth” organization – and have previously written
about it in my book GLADIATOR-Witchcraft, Propaganda, And The Rise of The World Hero, published
in 2001, by Texe Marrs, USA.
As global events move at an even quicker accelerating pace, it seems that each new day now brings
forth yet another new disclosure. Consequently, I thought I would write a short summary of the huge
volume of more up-to-date, pertinent information about the Trust, which is currently filed on the internet,
to enable anyone with a computer interested in the subject to verify the facts themselves.
I’ve underlined italicized words, names or phrases which can be typed into "Google Search" to find the
relevant information. For your study and research convenience many of the underlined items are
linked to relevant websites.
While largely censored by the British-controlled global media, if one knows where to look, there is
simply now a huge volume of information on the internet, often even on the conspirator's own web-sites
themselves, which plainly reveal what they are doing and what is quickly happening behind the scenes.
Hitler spoke openly in public rallies, and wrote down his devilish plans for world domination in Mein
Kampf long before he ever completed his seduction of the German nation. The process at the beginning
was voluntary. It was a very gradual one at first and was largely imperceptible, even to the very well
informed. In the end, when it was compulsory, it was blatantly obvious. Yet even then, few members of
the general public really understood what was truly happening.
Hitler Youth [Hitler-Jugend (HJ)] was officially founded in 1926, but its origin came from the
Jungsturm Adolf Hitler [Adolph Hitler Boy’s Storm Troop], an arm of the Storm Troopers founded in
1922. It was originally the youth movement of the German Worker’s Party founded in 1919, which Hitler
in 1920 renamed the National Socialist German Workers’ Party. By 1935, the HJ comprised 60 percent of
the country’s youth. From December 1, 1936, under the Jugenddienstpflicht all other youth groups were
banned and their membership was merged into Hitler Youth. HJ membership was made compulsory for
youths over 17 in 1939, and for all over the age of 10 in 1941. By 1939, Hitler Youth membership
comprised 90 percent of Germany’s youth.
