Marsha E. Barrett-Nelson Rockefeller's Dilemma 16:04

16:04

Nelson Rockefeller's Dilemma reveals the fascinating and influential political career of the four-time New York State governor and US vice president. Marsha E. Barrett's portrayal of this multi-faceted political player focuses on the eclipse of moderate Republicanism and the betrayal of deeply held principles for political power. Although never able to win his party's presidential nomination, Rockefeller's tenure as governor was notable for typically liberal policies: infrastructure projects, expanding the state's university system, and investing in local services and the social safety net. As the Civil Rights movement intensified in the early 1960s, Rockefeller envisioned a Republican Party recommitted to its Lincolnian heritage as a defender of Black equality. But the party's extreme right wing, encouraged by its successful outreach to segregationists before and after the nomination of Barry Goldwater, pushed the party to the right. With his national political ambitions fading by the late 1960s, Rockefeller began to tack right himself on social and racial issues, refusing to endorse efforts to address police brutality, accusing, without proof, Black welfare mothers of cheating the system, or introducing harsh drug laws that disproportionately incarcerated people of color. These betrayals of his own ideals did little to win him the support of the party faithful, and his vice presidency ended in humiliation, rather than the validation of moderate ideals. An in-depth, insightful, and timely political history, Nelson Rockefeller's Dilemma details how the standard-bearer of moderate Republicanism lost the battle for the soul of the Party of Lincoln, leading to mainlining of white-grievance populism for the post-civil rights era. Marsha E. Barrett is Assistant Professor of History at the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign. Her articles have appeared in such publications as the Journal of Policy History , New York History , and Politico . For more info on the book click HERE…

Before launching the iconic Texas blues-rock trio ZZ Top, a young Billy F. Gibbons was hustling through the Lone Star State with a band named the Moving Sidewalks. The small-time band had the chance of a lifetime when they opened for legendary rock guitar maestro Jimi Hendrix. Over 50 years later, Gibbons is one of the most recognizable rock musicians in American history. From ZZ Top’s early work in creating classic rock radio staples like “La Grange” and “Tush” in the 1970s to becoming a global phenomenon with innovative music videos in the early years of MTV, Gibbons has been the guiding hand behind ZZ Top’s evolution from the “Little Ol’ Band from Texas” to pop culture behemoth with the 1983 album Eliminator , which has sold over 20 million copies worldwide. As the guitarist and main singer of ZZ Top, Gibbons has gained immense respect among other music luminaries with guest appearances and collaborations with legends like B.B. King, Les Paul, Jeff Beck, John Mayall, and Sammy Hagar before releasing solo albums like The Big Bad Blues (2018), which was named Blues Rock Album of the Year by the Blues Music Awards. He has continued to lead ZZ Top in the aftermath of the death of longtime bandmate Dusty Hill in 2021 and shows no signs of slowing down from bringing his unique brand of Texas blues to the world. Featuring new interviews with Gibbons’ collaborators, including producers Terry Manning ( Tres Hombres , Eliminator ) and Robin Hood Brians ( ZZ Top’s First Album , Rio Grande Mud ) and Ministry’s Al Jourgensen and more, Gimme All Your Lovin': The Blues, Boogie, and Beard of ZZ Top's Billy F. Gibbons is a celebration of a true rock and roll original. The Author: Christopher McKittrick is the author of the books Howling to the Moonlight on a Hot Summer Night: The Tale of the Stray Cats (Backbeat Books, 2024), Can’t Give It Away on Seventh Avenue: The Rolling Stones and New York City (Post Hill Press, 2019), and Somewhere You Feel Free: Tom Petty and Los Angeles (Post Hill Press, 2020).

From a very young age Larry McClure's life was rife with tragedy following the deaths of his cousins, neighbors, his twin brother as well as his father all before the age of 12. This series of events led him on quest to find answers to help him explain all this distress and suffering that had been laid upon him and his family. So, he turned to the church for answers. His years of going to church not only didn’t answer his questions it just added to them. So, he left the church and began searching for answers on his own. After over 40 years of research, and study he finally found the answers he was searching for. He had spent many hours recording and documenting his research and felt that spiritually he was in a good place. But life had other intentions. In February of 2017 he was diagnosed with stage four colon cancer that had spread to his liver. Without treatment he had only six months to live, and with treatment maybe only two years. He was ready to accept the six months when a miracle happened in his life, so he decided to take the treatments. During the time he had left he decided to turn his spiritual journey into a book. With only two years to go he hurriedly self-published the first book Godward | The Prodigal Steps. After living past the two years, he was able to self-publish his second book, Godward | The Wilderness Steps. And that leads us to today, eight years later, which he is in the middle of writing his third book, Godward | The Promised Land Steps. For more info on the book click HERE…

Inevitably Amanda will discover the truth, forever changing her reality and with it how events foretold in the ancient Almec prophecy unfold. Meanwhile, Collins persuades Amanda to decrypt the Vladock language from records discovered in the crashed alien ship frozen in the arctic. Collins, however, has his own agenda which not only requires this information but other things he suspects only Amanda can deliver and he will allow nothing to stand in his way of getting them. Fifty thousand light years away, the Vladock are massing a galactic search for the remnants of their old enemy. Their emperor, driven by hatred and rage, seeks the complete extinction of the Almec and anyone protecting them to prevent the ancient Almec prophecy from coming true. A prophecy which ends with the defeat of his race at the hands of an Almec Warrior and King. It's a race against time. Who will live and who will die as the Vladock seek to complete their genocidal mission. Will the prophesized Warrior and King emerge from childhood to fulfill the ancient prophecy?How far will Amanda Stevenson and Queen Ekora go to protect their children and their people from extinction? The answers and much more remain shrouded in the Shadows of the Future. Rob Rubinetti is no stranger to science or SCI FI. He has lived life as a lover of both. As ayoung boy growing up in an age of space exploration unparalleled in human history, he wrote SCI FI adventures stories and performed plays in Miniature Theater of these stories in his hometown community center. As a young man in school, he developed conceptual space flight science which only today we are beginning to explore. He went on to obtain degrees in Mechanical and Nuclear Propulsion Engineering, but always retained his passion for great storytelling. Now returning to his passion he brings us the story of what is to come for the human race through the lives of four generations of a family whose past, present and future are woven into the inevitable tapestry of humanity's future and its survival. The three story arcs of the Stevenson family explores the unknown mysteries of our universe, our insipid journey into interstellar space, contact with alien races both benign and hostile, the lengths we will go to as a species not just to survive, but to understand who we are, and what we are capable of doing to protect that we hold most dear to us.

This story has already begun in the here and now in our human existence and is only waiting to unfold in Shadows of the Future. For more info on the book click HERE…

Of all the books written on Abraham Lincoln, there has been one surprising gap: the drama of how the “railsplitter” from Illinois grew into his critical role as U.S. commander-in-chief, and managed to outwit his formidable opponent, Jefferson Davis, in what remains history's only military faceoff between rival American presidents. Davis was a trained soldier and war hero; Lincoln a country lawyer who had only briefly served in the militia. Confronted with the most violent and challenging war ever seen on American soil, Lincoln seemed ill-suited to the task: inexperienced, indecisive, and a poor judge of people’s motives, he allowed his administration's war policies to be sabotaged by fickle, faithless cabinet officials while entrusting command of his army to a preening young officer named George McClellan – whose defeat in battle left Washington, the nation’s capital, at the mercy of General Robert E. Lee, Davis’s star performer. The war almost ended there. But in a Shakespearean twist, Lincoln summoned the courage to make, at last, a climactic decision: issuing as a “military necessity” a proclamation freeing the 3.5 million enslaved Americans without whom the South could not feed or fund their armed insurrection. The new war policy doomed the rebellion—which was in dire need of support from Europe, none of whose governments now would dare to recognize rebel “independence” in a war openly fought over slavery. The fate of President Davis was sealed. With a cast of unforgettable characters, from first ladies to fugitive coachmen to treasonous cabinet officials, Lincoln vs. Davis is a spellbinding dual biography from renowned presidential chronicler Nigel Hamilton: a saga that will surprise, touch, and enthrall. About the Author: Historian Nigel Hamilton is a New York Times best-selling biographer of General Bernard “Monty” Montgomery, President John F. Kennedy, President Bill Clinton, and President Franklin Delano Roosevelt, among other subjects. He has won multiple awards, including the Whitbread Prize and the Templer Medal for Military History. The first volume of his FDR a War trilogy, The Mantle of Command, was longlisted for the National Book Award. He is a senior fellow at the McCormack Graduate School, University of Massachusetts Boston, and splits his time between Boston, Massachusetts, and New Orleans, Louisiana.…

15:57

A jaw-dropping and unputdownable oral history of the New York Post and the legendary tabloid’s cultural impact from the 1970s to today as recounted by the men and women who witnessed it firsthand. By the 1970s, the country’s oldest continuously published newspaper had fallen on hard times, just like its nearly bankrupt hometown. When the New York Post was sold to a largely unknown Australian named Rupert Murdoch in 1976, staffers hoped it would be the start of a new golden age for the paper. Now, after the nearly fifty years Murdoch has owned the tabloid, American culture reflects what Murdoch first started in the 1970s: a celebrity-focused, noisy, one-sided media empire that reached its zenith with Fox News. Drawing on extensive interviews with key players and in-depth research, this eye-opening, wildly entertaining oral history shows us how we got to this point. It’s a rollicking tale full of bad behavior, inflated egos, and a corporate culture that rewarded skirting the rules and breaking norms. But working there was never boring and now, you can discover the entire remarkable true story of America’s favorite tabloid newspaper.…
