I know I am coming to this book late, but felt it necessary to read this (and others) from the native standpoint since I am also reading many books that seem to be about colonization. I, myself have perhaps been somewhat selfishly in sorrow for how our little seaside community is now turning into “Disneyland”, […]
1421- The Year China Discovered America By Gavin Menzies Let me start by writing that I am well aware that mainstream historians and archaeologists reject this interpretation, but for simple-minded readers like me perhaps, this book makes complete sense. Menzies was a submarine commander and knew ships, currents and winds – all the things needed […]
I learned quite a bit in reading this huge book, which probably was meant for college classes. Indeed, the author of “Continental Reckoning”, Elliot West, is a Professor of History Emeritus at the University of Arkansas. This book should be in an Economic or Law history class, and probably is. Author Elliot West clearly outlines […]
“Spit In The Ocean #7 – All about Kesey” is an eclectic collection of real tales about legendary Oregon writer Ken Kesey. Kesey is best known for writing “One Flew Over The Cuckoo’s Nest” (mental institutions) and “Sometimes A Great Notion” (an Oregon logging family). Both books were actually written in California, and both are […]
I found “Acid Dreams; The Complete History Of LSD: The CIA, The Sixties, And Beyond” a pretty good summary of the LSD experience, from the use of the drug in interrogation techniques used by intelligence agencies, to the use of such drugs to destabilize the revolutionary youth movement. At nearly 300 pages (my copy), it […]
“Mind Games” is a great “Who-Done-it”. Of course, I am old enough to have remembered the December 1980 killing of Lennon – as well as that of JFK, King, And RFK. In fact, there are multiple similarities between the assassination of Robert Kennedy and that of John Lennon. Author David Whelan has deeply studied the […]
Want some serious information about the origins of the COVID virus? “The Truth About Wuhan” is the book for you. Dr. Andrew G. Huff was an EcoHealth Alliance Vice President, definitely an insider with specialized knowledge regarding the creation of the Covid virus. The sub-title of the book is “How I Uncovered The Biggest Lie […]
This book, “The End Of The World..” by Peter Zeihan was quite interesting to read and share. Clearly, I had never heard of Zeihan, mainly because my political analysis has been way different, and it appears he mainly writes for the investor class. With that said, I really liked reading this book. As I wrote, […]
Review – Comanches – by T.R. Fehrenbach This was a fantastic read. There are several versions of “Comanches”, by T.R. Fehrenbach. This book is definitely politically incorrect by today’s standards, but very, very real. The violence committed by both the tribes as well as the whites is well documented. More on that later. I first […]
