Описание: Nineteenth-century Britain was then the world's most prosperous nation, yet Victorians would bury meat in earth and wring sheets out in boiling water with their bare hands. Such drudgery was routine for the parents of people still living, but the knowledge of it has passed as if it had never been. Following the daily life of a middle-class Victorian house from room to room; from childbirth in the master bedroom through the kitchen, scullery, dining room, and parlor, all the way to the sickroom; Judith Flanders draws on diaries, advice books, and other sources to resurrect an age so close in time yet so alien to our own.

Mormonism is a truly unique American religion. Born in upstate New York and suckled on the breast of freedom, a small group of self-styled "Saints" began preaching the gospel of Christ as revealed to Joseph Smith by divine revelation. Smith spoke of a heavenly visitation by God the Father and His Son Jesus Christ, endowing young Joseph with the authority to restore God's one, true church here on earth.
Under the direction of Joseph Smith, Jr. and later Brigham Young, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints quickly rose to a position of prominence in the mid 19th century. Latter-day Saints are largely regarded by society as industrious, honest, moral and descent people, but there is another side of Mormonism hidden from the prying eyes of outsiders.
Secret Agenda is a well documented expos revealing an ongoing conspiracy, stretching all the way back to the first prophet of the Church and his vision of establishing a theocratic government. Written by a seventh generation Mormon with ancestral ties to the ultra secretive Council of Fifty, Timothy pulls back the veil of secrecy to reveal the true aim of the Church.
Beneath the deceptively calm surface of a global religious institution, a storm is raging. With more than 15 million members world-wide, The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints is preparing to fulfill its ultimate destiny.
Unbeknownst to American citizens, an unassuming adversary patiently waits in the shadows - ready to pounce at a moment's notice. Lurking just around the corner, a well organized shadow government is waiting for all of the right pieces to fall into place.
Imagine what would happen if only a small portion of "The Mormon Plan for America" is allowed to be implemented. Personal freedoms currently enjoyed by all American citizens would be stripped away under the tyrannical rule of a theocratic government.
Make no mistake, America is under siege

A whip-smart, impeccably crafted debut mystery, A Murder of Magpies takes readers on a whirlwind tour of London and Paris with an unforgettably original new heroine
It's just another day at the office for London book editor Samantha "Sam" Clair. Checking jacket copy for howlers, wondering how to break it to her star novelist that her latest effort is utterly unpublishable, lunch scheduled with gossipy author Kit Lowell, whose new book will dish the juicy dirt on a recent fashion industry scandal. Little does she know the trouble Kit's book will cause-before it even goes to print. When police Inspector Field turns up at the venerable offices of Timmins & Ross, asking questions about a package addressed to Sam, she knows something is wrong. Now Sam's nine-to-five life is turned upside down as she finds herself propelled into a criminal investigation. Someone doesn't want Kit's manuscript published and unless Sam can put the pieces together in time, they'll do anything to stop it.
With this deliciously funny debut novel, acclaimed author Judith Flanders introduces readers to an enormously enjoyable, too-clever-for-her-own-good new amateur sleuth, as well Sam's Goth assistant, her effortlessly glamorous mother, and the handsome Inspector Field. A tremendously entertaining read, this page-turning novel from a bright new crime fiction talent is impossible to put down.

In her late twenties, Cait Flanders found herself stuck in the consumerism cycle that grips so many of us: earn more, buy more, want more, rinse, repeat. Even after she worked her way out of nearly $30,000 of consumer debt, her old habits took hold again. When she realized that nothing she was doing or buying was making her happy--only keeping her from meeting her goals--she decided to set herself a challenge: she would not shop for an entire year.
The Year of Less documents Cait's life for twelve months during which she bought only consumables: groceries, toiletries, gas for her car. Along the way, she challenged herself to consume less of many other things besides shopping. She decluttered her apartment and got rid of 70 percent of her belongings; learned how to fix things rather than throw them away; researched the zero waste movement; and completed a television ban. At every stage, she learned that the less she consumed, the more fulfilled she felt.
The challenge became a lifeline when, in the course of the year, Cait found herself in situations that turned her life upside down. In the face of hardship, she realized why she had always turned to shopping, alcohol, and food--and what it had cost her. Unable to reach for any of her usual vices, she changed habits she'd spent years perfecting and discovered what truly mattered to her.
Blending Cait's compelling story with inspiring insight and practical guidance, The Year of Less will leave you questioning what you're holding on to in your own life--and, quite possibly, lead you to find your own path of less.
