The Men Who Were Sherlock Holmes

release date: May 09, 2024
The Men Who Were Sherlock Holmes
In 1893, young army officer Cecil Hambrough was murdered at the sprawling Ardlamont estate in Scotland, unleashing one of the most gripping court cases Victorian Britain had ever known. Even more remarkably, the case brought together two pioneering forensic experts - Joseph Bell and Henry Littlejohn - two men upon whom Arthur Conan Doyle''s Sherlock Holmes happened to be based. It is their involvement in the Ardlamont affair that reveals how the world''s most famous detective came to be: the worlds of crime fiction and crime fact were about to collide spectacularly. In this extraordinary book, Daniel Smith outlines the key roles of the two men whose powers of deduction had so inspired Doyle and explores the real-world origins of Sherlock Holmes through the prism of a mystery as engrossing as any case the Great Detective ever tackled.

The Forbidden Mind Control Bible

release date: Nov 08, 2023
The Forbidden Mind Control Bible
"The Forbidden Mind Control Bible: Unearthing the Dark Secrets of Hypnosis, Manipulation, Deception, and Subliminal Influence" presents a stark convergence of two powerful works into one formidable volume. It lays bare the most jealously guarded secrets and methodologies of mind control, as unearthed by the keen intellects of Ken Talley and Daniel Smith. In this dark collection, the everyday world''s benign mask is torn off to reveal a theater of psychological warfare. Talley''s contributions dissect our daily encounters with manipulative tactics, from the subtle coercion used by our loved ones to the strategic mental dominance exerted by media and politicians. His revelations pull the reader into a reality where every smile and gesture may conceal an arsenal of persuasion and influence. Complementing this, Daniel Smith’s work pierces deeper into the forbidden realms of the psyche. It’s a descent into the cryptic art of mind control techniques that have been deliberately obscured from the public eye, considered too potent and dangerous for unguarded dissemination. His narrative thrusts you into the hidden depths where mind control is not a subject of taboo but a tool wielded with precision by the unseen masters of the human mind. This two-in-one volume is not for the faint of heart—it is an archive of the powerful and the perilous. It stands as a testament to the potency of knowledge that has been suppressed, revealing the true extent of psychological control. “The Forbidden Mind Control Bible” is an essential tome for those who seek to master the art of influence or protect themselves against the invisible forces that shape our world. Embark upon this journey with caution, for within the pages of this single, consolidated book lies a duality of perspective—a fusion of insight that promises mastery over the most intimate element of human existence: the mind. Here lies the synthesis of enlightenment and obscurity, a dual book that serves as a comprehensive manual to the concealed dominions of mind control.

Love Letters of Kings and Queens

release date: Feb 04, 2021
Love Letters of Kings and Queens
Tender, moving, heartfelt and warm (and sporadically scandalous and outrageous too), these are the private messages between people in love. Yet they are also correspondence between the rulers of nations. From Henry VIII''s lovelorn notes to Anne Boleyn and George IV''s impassioned notes to his secret wife, to Queen Victoria''s tender letters to Prince Albert and Edward VIII''s extraordinary correspondence with Wallis Simpson - these letters depict romantic love from its budding passion to the comfort and understanding of a long union (and occasionally beyond to resentment and recrimination), all set against the background of great affairs of state, wars and the strictures of royal duty. Here is a chance to glimpse behind the pomp and ceremony, the carefully curated images of royal splendour and decorum, to see the passions, hopes, jealousies and loneliness of kings and queens throughout history. By turns tender, moving, heartfelt and warm (and sporadically scandalous and outrageous too), these are the private messages between people in love. Yet they are also correspondence between the rulers of nations, whose actions (and passions) changed the course of history, for good and bad. This morning I received your dear, dear letter of the 21st. How happy do you make me with your love! Oh! my Angel Albert, I am quite enchanted with it! I do not deserve such love! Never, never did I think I could be loved so much. Queen Victoria to Prince Albert (28 November 1839)

release date: Nov 01, 2019
1845-1870 An Untold Story of Northern California
1845-1870 An Untold Story of Northern California is a revisionist historical non-fiction narrative of the American settling of Northern California, and their difficult experiences with local native conflicts that arose. These hostility''s have been eyeballed and extensively written about through the eyes of the indigenous locals. Modern knowledge on the true experiences of the pioneers settling of this specific area of 19th century Northern California, today, is seemingly swept under the rug. This literature serves as a window for the reader to understand the mindsets and culture of the American settlers as they homesteaded the Northern California region from 1845 to 1870. This literature includes massive amounts of information regarding unheard-of regional hostilities and depredations against the American settlers during this time-frame. 1845-1870 An Untold Story of Northern California also exposes and ties-in certain cultural. religious, and legal functions that solidified the history of what truly happened during Northern California''s unstable history! A must-have for students, teachers, and history enthusiasts!

Blockbuster Performances

release date: Nov 27, 2018
Blockbuster Performances
This book examines performances in the American film industry’s highest-earning and most influential films. Countering decades of discourse and the conventional notion that special effects are the real stars of Hollywood blockbusters, this book finds that the acting performances in these big-budget action movies are actually better, and more genre-appropriate, than reputed. It argues that while blockbusters are often edited for speed, thrills, and simplicity, and performances are sometimes tailored to this style, most major productions feature more scenes of stage-like acting than hyper-kinetic action. Knowing this, producers of the world’s highest-budgeted motion pictures usually cast strong or generically appropriate actors. With chapters offering unique readings of some of cinema’s biggest hits, such as The Dark Knight, Pirates of the Caribbean, Star Wars, Iron Man and The Hunger Games, this unprecedented study sheds new light on the importance of performance in the Hollywood blockbuster.

Mind control is a tool that one can use for good or evil purposes. It all depends on the type of mind control that is involved and the intent of the individual who wants to apply it. It also depends on whether the target or subject of mind control will benefit from it or is harmed. Nonetheless, mind control is a very intriguing and fascinating topic. The majority of us use some form of mind control such as persuasion or manipulation in our everyday lives to get what we want from others and to achieve our goals.

The Spade as Mighty as the Sword

release date: Jan 01, 2013
The Spade as Mighty as the Sword
After food rationing was introduced in 1940, and German U-boats began threatening merchant shipping bringing in essential foodstuffs, the Ministry of Agriculture decided something had to be done to make the kitchens of Britain more self-sufficient. The result was one of Britain’s most successful propaganda campaigns – Dig for Victory – encouraging every man and woman to turn their garden, or even the grass verge in their street, over to cultivating vegetables. By 1942 half the population were taking part, and even the Royal Family had sacrificed their rose beds for growing onions. Now, Daniel Smith tells the full story of this remarkable wartime episode when spades, forks and bean canes became weapons the ordinary citizen could take up against the enemy. It had tangible benefits for the war effort in that shipping could be reallocated for munitions instead of food imports, as well as for the health of the nation in encouraging a diet of fresh fruit and veg. The campaign threw up unexpected celebrities like C.H. Middleton, whose wartime BBC radio talks on gardening reached a vast audience, and it even sowed the seeds for the modern allotment movement. Ultimately it is a war story without fighting or killing, one that shows how even The Little Man with the Spade, in the words of the Minister for Agriculture at the time, did his bit for Victory.
