What happened after a group of farmers got newspaper editor Gene wirges is to make a simple promise - to print the truth - about whatever he could learn about local government is a story that will shock america.
What Wirges was told about a powerful political organization, led by a sheriff, was it first two incredible to take seriously.
But Wirges lived through the story and became one of its Central characters. His book offers America a primer about the workings of an outlaw government, a government out of control and spending toward other oppression.
Wirges' story details, through a riveting narrative, how Master politicians can achieve control over matter seemingly out of their reach of influence. To know what happened in Arkansas 30 years ago is to recognize the techniques of those who would cast freedom into Oblivion and make of justice, a mockery. 
More relevant today than it was when the story began in the 1960s.

An American Journey

A New York Times bestseller From Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris, one of America's most inspiring political leaders, a book about the core truths that unite us, and the long struggle to discern what those truths are and how best to act upon them, in her own life and across the life of our country Vice President-Elect Kamala Harris's commitment to speaking truth is informed by her upbringing. The daughter of immigrants, she was raised in an Oakland, California community that cared deeply about social justice; her parents--an esteemed economist from Jamaica and an admired cancer researcher from India--met as activists in the civil rights movement when they were graduate students at Berkeley. Growing up, Harris herself never hid her passion for justice, and when she became a prosecutor out of law school, a deputy district attorney, she quickly established herself as one of the most innovative change agents in American law enforcement. She progressed rapidly to become the elected District Attorney for San Francisco, and then the chief law enforcement officer of the state of California as a whole. Known for bringing a voice to the voiceless, she took on the big banks during the foreclosure crisis, winning a historic settlement for California's working families. Her hallmarks were applying a holistic, data-driven approach to many of California's thorniest issues, always eschewing stale "tough on crime" rhetoric as presenting a series of false choices. Neither "tough" nor "soft" but smart on crime became her mantra. Being smart means learning the truths that can make us better as a community, and supporting those truths with all our might. That has been the pole star that guided Harris to a transformational career as California’s attorney general, as a United States senator, and now as vice president-elect, grappling in every role with an array of complex issues, from health care and the new economy to immigration, national security, the opioid crisis, and accelerating inequality. By reckoning with the big challenges we face together, drawing on the hard-won wisdom and insight from her own career and the work of those who have most inspired her, Kamala Harris offers in THE TRUTHS WE HOLD a master class in problem solving, in crisis management, and leadership in challenging times. Through the arc of her own life, on into the great work of our day, she communicates a vision of shared struggle, shared purpose, and shared values. In a book rich in many home truths, not least is that a relatively small number of people work very hard to convince a great many of us that we have less in common than we actually do, but it falls to us to look past them and get on with the good work of living our common truth. When we do, our shared effort will continue to sustain us and this great nation, now and in the years to come.

An Invitation to the Great American Story (Young Readers Edition, Volume 2)

"We have a great many historical books today designed for young readers--books about particular aspects of the American past, representing every ethnic and racial group and every religious and social persuasion. But what we have been lacking is a charming and compelling book that can stand at the center of it all, and acquaint our young people with the larger story of which their story is a part. The great American story. The runaway success of Wilfred McClay's 2019 book LAND OF HOPE has provided a model of has been needed for so long; and it's in the spirit of that work that Encounter Books will publish this special edition, with language and contents designed especially with younger readers in mind. The great themes of the nation's history will all presented resoundingly: the search for religious liberty, the heroic battles of the American Revolution, the great controversies of the Constitutional Convention, the exhilaration of national expansion, the traumas of civil war and reconciliation, the rise to world leadership. But the great themes will also be accompanied by smaller themes: what it felt like to live in a colonial village, or a midwestern pioneering town, or as a cowboy on the range. Like its namesake and predecessor, the Young Reader's edition of LAND OF HOPE is a great invitation, one that will tantalize its readers and leaving them hungry to learn more"--

Christopher B. Strain

When incidents of extreme violence flare in America, all too often they are framed as isolated aberrations. Nothing could be further from the truth, as Christopher Strain argues in his new book, Reload: Rethinking Violence in American Life. The unpleasant fact, as he reveals in this highly readable study, is that American violence is inextricably woven into the fabric of our national heritage and experience.

In Reload, Strain traces our modern-day conception of violence from the struggle to survive on the American frontier, through evolving gender roles in recent centuries, to the hysteria surrounding video and role-playing games and the more recent disturbing phenomenon of school shootings. Strain shapes nothing less than a profound meditation on American violence and a "primer" on understanding what can often appear to be a profoundly dangerous nation.

In addition to serving as a comprehensive overview of the state of violence in America, Reload also suggests ways of combating the trends that lead to tragedy.

Rethinking Violence in American Life

In a book that covers everything from violence on the American frontier to modern-day video and role-playing games to the recent spate of school shootings, the author argues that violent occurences in the U.S. are not simply isolated incidents but rather part of a large trend that is woven into the fabric of the American experience.

Thomas J. Sargent

In The Conquest of American Inflation, Thomas J. Sargent presents an analysis of the rise and fall of U.S. inflation after 1960. He examines two broad explanations for the behavior of inflation and unemployment in this period: the natural rate hypothesis joined to the Lucas critique and a more traditional econometric policy evaluation modified to include adaptive expectations and learning. His purpose is not only to determine which is the better account, but also to codify for the benefit of the next generation the economic forces that cause inflation. Providing an original methodological link between theoretical and policy economics, this book will engender much debate and become an indispensable text for academics, graduate students, and professional economists.
