Political History

Every Inaugural Speech from Washington's shortest to Harrison's longest.... Includes pictures of the presidents.

The first part-The Jew-has a somewhat curious history. Burton collected most of the materials for writing it from 1869 to 1871, when he was Consul at Damascus. His intimate knowledge of Eastern races and languages, and his sympathy with Oriental habits and lines of thought, gave him exceptional facilities for ethnological studies of this kind. Disguised as a native, and unknown to any living soul except his wife, the British Consul mingled freely with the motley populations of Damascus, and inspected every quarter of the city-Muslim, Christian, and Jewish.

The truth is that affairs of this kind--like all the great issues of human life, Love, Politics, Religion, and so forth, do not, at their best, admit of final dispatch in definite views and phrases. They are too vast and complex for that. It is, indeed, quite probable that such things cannot be adequately represented or put before the human mind without logical inconsistencies and contradictions. But (perhaps for that very reason) they are the subjects of the most violent and dogmatic differences of opinion. Nothing people quarrel about more bitterly than Politics--unless it be Religion: both being subjects of which all that one can really say for certain is--that nobody understands them.

Written approximately 20 years before he became president, Wilson offers an objective view of the divisions caused by the federal government between the states from 1829 to 1889. A unique look into the shameful history of the US and its states from one of the statesmen of the early 20th century, a president of the United States. Wilson was the president during the Great War (1918). This TGS reprint is a large style book with a print larger than the original.

This is the collection of Henry Ford's controversial works that created an uproar in the American Jewish community from 1921- well into the 1940s ...The International Jew gives a rare insight into the thoughts and political yen of many of this era. If we fail to study history, even controversial elements of history, we are indeed doomed to repeat its mistakes. Ford, like thousands of other influential men and politicians, endorsed the Nazis in 1930s Germany. This fact is one that is seldom covered in history books.

The title of this reprint is not 'politically correct' in today's world, but the value of its message is as viable today was the era in which it was authored. Generations of young students are NOT being taught the crimes committed against a race of people, through no historical wrong-doing of their own, by another race of people under the approval, the wink and the nod, of the government of the USA. This book was authored by equal rights and civil rights leaders of our past. These books are a must to keep in print so our next generations can learn where their forefathers have been, and what not to allow to return.

That great LEVIATHAN called a COMMONWEALTH, or STATE (in Latin, CIVITAS), which is but an artificial man, though of greater stature and strength than the natural, for whose protection and defence it was intended; and in which the sovereignty is an artificial soul, as giving life and motion to the whole body
