Margaret Thatcher was a woman of tremendous paradoxes: a conviction politician who was also a pragmatist; someone who delighted in her tough reputation, yet could also be emotional, and even tearful, when confronted by personal or national tragedy. Her reputation as a cabinet leader was one of being quasi-dictatorial, yet she left her ministers to get on with their jobs - far more than any of her successors ever have. She was known as a classical laissez faire liberal, yet she started out as a social conservative, and wasn't averse to state intervention when she felt it was warranted.

Prior to November 3, 1992, life had been fairly ordinary for the Leavitt Family. Then, with the closing of the polls and a flurry of election night projections, it wasn't.

Jefferson Davis (1808 - 1889) was an American politician who became president of the Confederate States during the Civil War. He took his seat in Congress as the representative for Mississippi in 1847. As a Democrat, Davis was an enthusiastic supporter of the expansion of slavery. In 1861, he resigned from the Senate when the state of Mississippi seceded. During the Civil War, Davis acted as chief executive and commander in chief for the Confederacy. After the war, he was captured and charged with treason.

Il pio Rumor, l’irriducibile Fanfani, l’enigmatico Moro, l’eterno Andreotti, l’aggressivo De Mita, il monacale Berlinguer, l’ardimentoso Craxi, il tenace Almirante, l’ambizioso Spadolini. Giampaolo Pansa rimette sulla scena alcuni dei protagonisti che dal 1948 al 1989 hanno guidato l’Italia, ripercorrendo il loro tempo: il caos delle correnti, l’alterigia dei ras locali, il cancro della mafia, le bombe del terrorismo, il sequestro Moro, la loggia P2, la guerra tra comunisti e socialisti. Un vasto affresco dedicato all’Italia che non c’è più.

The address tells Americans—and peoples around the world—what the country has been and what it has the potential to become. This work brings together all of the inaugural addresses—from George Washington's first in 1789 through Joseph Biden's in 2021.

Few political figures of the twentieth century have aroused such intensities of fierce admiration and reactionary fear as Russian revolutionary Leon Trotsky. His extraordinary life and extensive writings have left an indelible mark on the revolutionary consciousness. Yet there was once a danger that his life and influence would be relegated to the footnotes of history. Published over the course of ten years, beginning in 1954, Deutscher's magisterial three-volume biography turned back the tide of Stalin's propaganda, and has since been praised by everyone from Tony Blair to Graham Greene.

Är det verkligen möjligt att ta över ett politiskt parti och föra det till regeringsmakten? Vad krävs för att klara det? Och vem är så skicklig att ingen anar vad som egentligen hände?

”Vi tolererar inga förlorare.” Det var på den grunden som Joseph P Kennedy byggde sin familjedynasti. Och han insåg att pengar är vägen till framgång, först på Wall Street och i filmindustrin med Gloria Swanson, sedan i politiken. Charmfull, skrupelfri och hänsynslös jagade han den makt och det inflytande som berövats honom av de förnämsta släkterna i hemstaden Boston. Revanschlusten blev drivkraften också för hustrun Rose och de nio barnen. När Joseph P Kennedy inte lyckats med en politisk karriär ställdes kravet på den äldste sonen att bli USA:s president.

Andrew Mellon, one of the most accomplished businessmen of his era, is almost unknown today. To this shy, diffident (but brilliant) man fell the daunting task of collecting the war debts from European governments still devastated by WWI and struggling to recover economically. Dealing with the US Congress and the heads of foreign governments on the world stage became one of the great adventures of his life. Mellon vs. Churchill presents Winston Churchill through a different lens, focusing on his service as Chancellor of the Exchequer when Great Britain was the largest debtor to the US.

When war erupted in Ukraine, the world paused—some in solidarity, others in silence. But for one retired British police officer, the call to bear witness was too loud to ignore. Robert Marshall takes listeners on an unforgettable journey into the heart of a nation under siege. From bombed-out streets in Kyiv to quiet moments with grieving families in Lviv, this is not just a war story—it’s a story of courage, love, despair, and human connection in the face of unthinkable cruelty.
