The Imposter's War - Mark Arsenault

The shocking history of the espionage and infiltration of American media during WWI and the man who exposed it. A man who was not who he claimed to be...Russia was not the first foreign power to subvert American popular opinion from inside. In the lead-up to America’s entry into the First World War, Germany spent the modern equivalent of one billion dollars to infiltrate American media, industry, and government to undermine the supply chain of the Allied forces. If not for the ceaseless activity of John Revelstoke Rathom, editor of the scrappy Providence Journal, America may have remained committed to its position of neutrality. But Rathom emerged to galvanize American will, contributing to the conditions necessary for President Wilson to request a Declaration of War from Congress—all the while exposing sensational spy plots and getting German diplomats expelled from the U.S. And yet John Rathom was not even his real name. His swashbuckling biography was outrageous fiction. And his many acts of journalistic heroism, which he recounted to rapt audiences on nationwide speaking tours, never happened. Who then was this great, beloved, and ultimately tragic imposter? In The Imposter’s War, Mark Arsenault unearths the truth about Rathom’s origins and revisits a surreal and too-little-known passage in American history that reverberates today. The story of John Rathom encompasses the propaganda battle that set America on a course for war. He rose within the editorial ranks, surviving romantic scandals and combative rivals, eventually transitioning from an editor to a de facto spy. He brought to light the Huerta plot (in which Germany tied to push the United States and Mexico into a war) and helped to upend labor strikes organized by German agents to shut down American industry. Rathom was eventually brought low by an up-and-coming political star by the name of Franklin Delano Roosevelt. Arsenault tracks the rise and fall of this enigmatic figure, while providing the rich and fascinating context of Germany’s acts of subterfuge through the early years of World War I. The Imposter's War is a riveting and spellbinding narrative of a flawed newsman who nevertheless changed the course of history.

Mary Toft was just another eighteenth century woman living in poverty, misery and frequent pain. Mary Toft was the kind of person overlooked by those with power, forgotten by historians. Mary Toft was nothing. Until, that is, Mary Toft started giving birth to rabbits... In Mary and the Rabbit Dream, the sensational debut novelist Noemi Kiss-Deaki reimagines Mary''s strange and fascinating story - and how she found fame when a large swathe of England became convinced that she was the mother of rabbits. Mary and the Rabbit Dream is a story of bodily autonomy, of absurdity, of the horrors inflicted on women, of the cruel realities of poverty and the grotesque divides between rich and poor. It''s a book that matters deeply - and it''s also a compelling page-turner. A story told with exquisite wit, skill and a beautiful streak of subversive mischief.

The World Book of Happiness - Leo Bormans

The virus, the war, the climate, inflation, poverty and loneliness make people feel insecure. In these troubled times, there is more interest than ever for what is truly important in life: happiness, hope and love. What does science teach us today? Are we still allowed to strive towards happiness? And how do we do that? Leo Bormans asked the same question over and over again to a hundred professors all over the world: established names and young up-and-comers. Every scientist briefly summarises their recent research after which they formulate their insights in one single sentence: the essence. To this they link at least three concrete pieces of advice: for our own lives, for our friends and for society. With contributions from the most prominent experts in positive psychology, such as: Prof. Martin Seligman (University of Pennsylvania), author of more than 20 international bestsellers and the founding father of positive psychology; Richard Easterlin (University of Southern California), one of the most respected and renowned authorities in happiness research, Prof. Sir Richard Layard (The London School of Economics), one of the most influential voices in the global study of happiness and well-being; and Jan-Emmanuel De Neve (Oxford University), editor of The World Report on Happiness (UN).

Kinderkraft LEODY 2021 s příslušenstvím Grey

Máte rádi společné cestování s dítětem? Hledáte postýlku, která usnadní vašemu prckovi usnout mimo domov, a vám – postarat se o vaše dítě? LEODY s příslušenstvím je tedy pro vás jako stvořené! Jedná se o cestovní postýlku, která nahradí postýlku, přebalovací podložku a komodu. Jak je to možné? Především má LEODY praktické příslušenství, k němuž patří přebalovací podložka, která se montuje na rám postýlky, a police na pleny. Díky polici můžete mít vždy po ruce i vlhčené ubrousky, kosmetický krém nebo vatové tampony. LEODY je však především postýlka pro mobilní rodiče. Složíte a rozložíte ji za několik chvil, díky čemuž ji s sebou vezmete úplně všude. Po složení má velmi kompaktní rozměry, a přiložená taška s rukojeťmi umožňuje jednodušší přenášení. Po rozložení se LEODY přemění na komfortní ložnici, ve které bude drobeček klidně usnout – dokonce i na novém místě. Postýlka má dno, které lze nastavit na 2 úrovních, díky čemuž je vhodná nejen pro kojence, ale i pro starší děti, které začínají sedat a zvedat se. Vyšší úroveň umožní rodičům starat se o prcka, aniž by se museli příliš ohýbat. K LEODY je také přiložen kolotoč s hračkami, světýlky a hudbou. Podporuje motorický vývoj dítěte (povzbuzuje jej k vystírání rukou), rozvíjí koncentraci, podporuje zrak a sluch. Postýlka má systém s dvojitým zabezpečením před spontánním složením. Síťované boky vám umožní mít celou dobu zrakový kontakt s dítětem, a přitom mu zaručí přísun vzduchu, dokonce i během horkých nocí. Výhody: Pohodlí: Patro postýlky se dá zavěsit na dvou úrovních. Nejvyšší úroveň (pro kojence) vám umožní starat se o dítě, aniž byste se museli příliš ohýbat. Když dítě začne sedat nebo se zvedat – snižte patro do druhé úrovně. Cestovní postýlka LEODY je vybavena bočním vchodem zapínaným na zip. Umožní lezoucímu prcku vejít a vyjít z postýlky, a při tom plní i funkci ohrádky.

Kromě toho, že upoutá pozornost prcka, usnadní mu usínání a ho uklidní. LEODY se velmi snadno přenáší – má dvě kola, která usnadňují přesouvání postýlky z jednoho pokoje do druhého. A aby se během používání postýlka nepřemísťovala, je u každého kola umístěna brzda. Cestovní postýlka má malé rozměry po složení: 76 × 20 × 17 cm. Vejde se dokonce i do malého zavazadlového prostoru v autě. Přiložená taška má praktické rukojeti, které usnadňují přenášet složenou postýlku. Bezpečnost: Postýlka LEODY má pevný a stabilní rám z oceli. Konstrukce je velmi robustní a chrání dítě dokonce i během neklidného spánku. Skládací systém je vybaven dvojitým zabezpečením proti složení.

Leona Machálková - Vánoce v srdci (CD)

Leona Machálková - Vánoce v srdci (2024) CD. První vánoční album zpěvačky Leony Machálkové přináší slavné vánoční písně, ale i nové skladby v působivých aranžích. Album přináší kolekci slavných vánočních hitů s původními českými texty autorů Eduarda Krečmara, Zdeňka Borovce, Václava Kopty, Karla Šípa, Pavla Cmírala, Jana Fischera, Jaroslava Machka a Elišky Hlavové. Leona natočila písně v originálních aranžích, které připravil Daniel Wunsch a která dávají písním nový rozměr a silný emocionální náboj. Písně jako Má přání k Vánocům (My Grown - Up Christmas List), Malé tiché štěstí (Have Yourself A Merry Little Christmas), Den zrození (Greensleeves – What Child Is This?), Vrátil se král (Morning Has Broken), Pán nám dítě dal (Soleado - When A Child Is Born) nebo nejslavnější vánoční píseň všech dob Tichá noc vás naladí na meditaci a pohladí vaši duši. Zář vánoc (Last Christmas), To k Vánocům patří (Happy X MAS (War Is Over)) aPadá sníh (Let It Snow, Let It Snow) pak nepochybně navodí veselou a radostnou náladu. Na albu jsou také dva duety, které pro Leonu připravili muzikanti Vlasta Horváth (Přihořívá) a slavný hitmaker Michal David, který k duetu Štědrý den zas je tu s námi napsal hudbu i text. „Co si může zpěvačka chystající své první vánoční album přát víc, než že hitmaker a výsostný melodik Michal David pro ni a na ně napíše písničku?“, říká Leona. „A navíc ji se mnou nazpívá v duetu, což je splnění jednoho z mých snů. Myslím si, že duet je tematicky blízký všem a naše hlasy je mohou naladit na tu správnou romantickou notu" A zmínit je třeba i dva bonusy. Přátelství a vzájemnou úctu, které k sobě chovali Leona s Karlem Černochem, připomíná jejich duet Lásky tvář (Face Of Love). „Karel Černoch byl skvělý umělec a laskavý člověk. Svoji lásky tvář mi ukázal nejednou a já jsem mu za mnohé vděčná. Tenhle duet je malou vzpomínkou na to, jak se i naše hlasy měly rády….“, vzpomíná Leona na zpěváka s nezaměnitelnou barvou hlasu. Druhým bonusem je písnička Karla Svobody a Karla Šípa Poslední princové, kterou Leona nahrála už na konci 90. let a která na CD vychází poprvé. 1.

Seeing the same resemblance that her daughter did, Miranda proposes she hire Lynch to assume her son’s identity, in a last-ditch effort to try and flush out his killer.As Lynch begins to impersonate him, dark forces are lured out of the shadows, and he realises too late that Heydon wasn’t paranoid at all. Someone was watching his every move, and they’ll kill to keep it a secret.For the first time, Lynch is in a life or death situation he can’t lie his way out of._____________Readers love Imposter Syndrome:‘A fast-paced and exciting read’‘A gripping and intense psychological thriller that masterfully explores themes of deception, identity’‘An intelligent read that you won''t want to put down and you certainly won''t want to end’‘I knew I would love this as everything Joseph Knox writes is brilliant, but this is probably my favourite to date now!’

''This series is a must-read for anyone who loves the sea, or islands, or joyous, intricate story-telling.''ANN CLEEVESWhen an internet lifestyle influencer arrives on Shetland to document her ''perfect'' holiday, the locals are somewhat sceptical. Joining a boat trip to the remote islands of St Kilda with sailing sleuth Cass Lynch and her partner DI Gavin Macrae, the young woman seems more concerned with her phone than the scenery. But when it''s time to leave, there''s no sign of her. Despite mounting a desperate search, she''s seemingly vanished without trace - from a small island in the middle of the sea. As a puzzling investigation gathers pace, there are more questions than answers - and uncovering the truth will reveal dark and long-hidden secrets...Atmospheric and gripping, An Imposter on Shetland is the latest instalment in the much-loved Shetland Mystery series by Marsali Taylor. Perfect for fans of Ann Cleeves and Elly Griffiths.
