A Short History of England (1917) is Chesterton’s commentary on the philosophical, social, and religious history of England. The book focuses on those highlights that have shaped the nation, and is presented in the author’s customary wit. Having displayed strong Roman Catholic leanings at this time of his life, the author equates Anglicanism with atheism, but does commend the upliftment achieved by the Wesleyans. Chesterton views the story of England as the story of robber barons who became an aristocracy and who concealed their rise to power and hegemony through Parliament.

From the moment Spanish conquistador Hernan Cortés first found and confronted them, the Aztecs have fascinated the world, and they continue to hold a unique place both culturally and in pop culture. Nearly 500 years after the Spanish conquered their mighty empire, the Aztecs are often remembered today for their major capital, Tenochtitlan, as well as being fierce conquerors of the Valley of Mexico who often engaged in human sacrifice rituals.

Martin Puchner nos mostra que precisamos nos envolver com o passado, e uns com os outros, para que as culturas realizem seu pleno potencial, a despeito dos erros, incompreensões e destruições que muitas vezes acompanham esse envolvimento. Para ele, a proximidade é o oxigênio que as mantém vivas.

America began, we are often told, with the Founding Fathers, the men who waged a revolution and created a unique place called the United States. We may acknowledge the early Jamestown and Puritan colonists and mourn the dispossession of Native Americans, but we rarely grapple with the complexity of the nation’s pre-revolutionary past. In this pathbreaking revision, Daniel Richter shows that the United States has a much deeper history than is apparent - that far from beginning with a clean slate, it is a nation with multiple pasts.

Overall, this sequence of books shows that there is a theme throughout history that aliens have affected humanity, not only since Homo sapiens evolved but even well into pre-history to hundreds of millions of years ago, when animal life didn’t yet exist on Earth’s land. That giants lived on the Earth back then and had their own civilizations. Our civilization today is, in many ways, a result of our interactions of aliens for our entire history.

This audiobook is about ancient tunnels and underground cities. From the previous research I’ve done on related topics, I do strongly believe that these findings are related to ancient civilizations which we know existed from ruins on the Earth. Some of these findings are stories that have more evidence to prove they are real than others. This is why I’ve divided this book up into two parts.

Giants have existed on the Earth for most of Earth’s history. We are talking about going back hundreds of millions of years. There were also many giants on Earth in historical times when human civilization existed. There are even credible stories of giants existing on Earth in the present era, such as one killed by US soldiers in the mountains of Afghanistan. North America has had many sightings, and there are stories of wars with giants from the American Indians, as well as stories of cannibalistic giants who were killed by Indians in a cave.

There are many civilizations which existed in prehistoric times, and most of them are now lost to our knowledge and ken. Many of them were lost when the oceans rose during the melting from the last Ice Age. Some were just buried and have recently come to light. In this audiobook, we examine many of these lesser-known civilizations and cities and look at incredible extensions of how far back in history civilization actually goes.

Many objects have been found from the deep past which should not exist. We are talking about millions to hundreds of millions years ago. The objects described in this book provide lots of evidence that they really originated in those ages. These things include metal containers and vases found in seams of coal, and spark plugs encased in rock which should not exist. There are also ancient footprints of giants which were created before land animals are believed to have existed.

There is much of human history which we don’t know due to lost records, the oceans covering our ancestor’s cities, natural disasters, and reasons we don’t know. There are also many anomalies which have been found showing ruins and objects from the far past which should not exist.

Many millions of species have existed in Earth’s past. What distinguishes those which survive like humanity and those who don’t survive? And what is it about man’s ability to survive which has made us the dominant mammals on Earth? In this book, we look at the things man has done uniquely to succeed. This includes the use of fire for all of our existence as Home sapiens and much of our history as hominids.
