A Patriot’s History of the United StatesFrom Columbus’s Great Discovery to the War on Terror10th Anniversary Edition

LARRY SCHWEIKART AND MICHAEL PATRICK

ALLEN For the past three decades,

many history professors have allowed their biases to distort the way America’s past is taught. As a result, more emphasis is placed on Harriet Tubman than on George Washington;

more about the internment of Japanese

Americans during World War II than about D-Day.

A PATRIOT’S HISTORY OF THE UNITED STATES

corrects those doctrinaire biases.

Atlantis and the Coming Ice AgeThe Lost Civilization – A Mirror of Our WorldRevised and Expanded Edition of Atlantis and 2012FRANK JOSEPHWith the passing of the Mayan Calendar’s end date we can now focus on the true significance of what the Maya and their predecessors were trying to convey to future civilisations. Frank Joseph reveals how the Mayan prophecy, symbolised by their calendar, was created through the combined genius of Atlantis and Lemuria and predicts an eternal cycle of global creation, destruction and renewal. He shows how this cycle correlates precisely with scientific studies on glacial ice cores and predictions from the Hopi, the Incas and the Scandinavian Norse as well as the visions of Edgar Cayce.

The Complete Earth Chronicles7 Volume Boxed SetZECHARIA SITCHINOne of the few scholars able to read and interpret ancient Sumerian and Akkadian clay tablets, Zecharia Sitchin (1920– 2010) based his Earth Chronicles Series on texts from the ancient civilisations of the Near East. Drawing both widespread interest and criticism, his controversial theories on the Anunnaki origins of humanity have been translated into more than 20 languages and featured on radio andtelevision programmes around the world.

Point of OriginGobekli Tepe and the Spiritual Matrix for the World’s CosmologiesLAIRD SCRANTONHow could multiple ancient cultures, spanning both years and geography, have strikingly similar creation myths and cosmologies? Why do the Dogon of Africa and the civilisations of ancient Egypt, India, Tibet and China share sacred words and symbols? Revealing the existence of a long-forgotten primal culture and the world’s first centre of higher learning, Laird Scranton shows how the sophisticated complex at Gobekli Tepe in Turkey is the definitive point of origin from which all the great civilisations of the past inherited their cosmology, esoteric teachings and civilising skills, such as agriculture, metallurgy and stone masonry, fully developed.

Bloodline of the GodsUnravel the Mystery of the Human Blood Type to Reveal the Aliens Among UsNICK REDFERN The vast majority of humankind – 85 to 90 percent – is Rh positive, which means a person’s red blood cells contain an antigen directly connected to the Rhesus monkey. This antigen is known as the Rh factor. If the theory of evolution is valid – that each and every one of us is descended from ancient primates – shouldn’t we all be Rh positive? Yes, we should. But we’re not. The Negatives are unlike the rest of us. They are different. They are the unique individuals whose bloodline may have nothing less than extraterrestrial origins.

The Stone Tablets of MuJACK E. CHURCHWARDIn the 1920s famed researcher and occultist, James Churchward, wrote a series of groundbreaking books about the lost continent of Lemuria which he called the land of Mu. His basic premises were that the Garden of Eden was not in the Middle East, but on a sunken continent in the Pacific Ocean and the Biblical story of creation came from this now sub-merged continent of Mu. Now, James' great-grandson, Jack Churchward, presents an examination of previously “not publicly available” portions of James Churchward's booklet, Copies of Stone Tablets Found by William Niven at Santiago Ahuizoctla near Mexico City.

The End of DaysArmageddon and Prophecies of the ReturnZECHARIA SITCHINWhy is it that our current twenty-first century A.D. is so similar to the twenty-first century B.C.? Is history destined to repeat itself? Will biblical prophecies come true and if so, when? In this final volume of the Earth Chronicles Series, a masterwork that required thirty years of additional research, Zecharia Sitchin shows that the End is anchored in the events of the Beginning and once you learn of this Beginning, it is possible to foretell the Future. In an age when religious fanaticism and a clash of civilisations raise the spectre of a nuclear Armageddon, Zecharia Sitchin shatters perceptions and uses history to reveal what is to come at The End of Days.

The Secrets of Ancient AmericaArchaeoastronomy and the Legacy of the Phoenicians, Celts, and Other Forgotten ExplorersCARL LEHRBURGERAs the myth of Columbus “discovering” America falls from the pedestal of established history, we are given the opportunity to discover the real story of the New World and the visitors, from both East and West, who travelled there long before 1492. Sharing his more than 25 years of research and travel to sites throughout North America, Carl Lehrburger employs , archaeology and archaeoastronomy to reveal extensive evidence for pre-Columbian explorers in ancient America. He provides more than 300 photographs and drawings of sites, relics and rock art, including Celtic and Norse runes in New England, Phoenician and Hebrew inscriptions in the Midwest and ancient Shiva linga and Egyptian hieroglyphs in the West.

Thrice Great Hermetica and The Janus AgeHermetic Cosmology, Finance, Politics and Culture in the Middle Ages Through the Late RenaissanceJOSEPH P. FARRELL

In this book, noted author and researcher, Joseph P. Farrell, takes the reader on a journey through the hidden history of the Middle Ages, the Renaissance and early Enlightenment, connecting the dots between Venice, international banking, the Templars and hidden knowledge, drawing out the connections between the notorious Venetian “Council of Ten,” little known Venetian voyages to the New World and the sacking of Constantinople during the Fourth Crusade. That hidden role of Venice and Hermeticism reached far and wide, into the plays of Shakespeare (a.k.a. Edward DeVere), Earl of Oxford, into the quest of the three great mathematicians of the Early Enlightenment for a lost form of analysis and back into the end of the classical era, to little known Egyptian influences at work during the time of Jesus.

China’s Cosmological PrehistoryThe Sophisticated Science Encoded in Civilization's Earliest SymbolsLAIRD SCRANTONBuilding on his extensive research into the sacred symbols and creation myths of the Dogon of Africa and those of ancient Egypt, India and Tibet, Laird Scranton investigates the myths, symbols and traditions of prehistoric China, providing further evidence that the cosmology of all ancient cultures arose from a single now-lost source. In exploring Chinese cosmological traditions, Scranton sheds new light on the contention that the sacred knowledge of the ancients is the legacy of an earlier culture who gave primitive humanity the tools they needed to birth the first known civilisations.

Ley Lines of the U.K. and U.S.A.How Ley Lines were used by the Church, Royalty, City Planners and the FreemasonsDAVID R. COWAN AND ANNE C. SILKSince the Stone Age our ancestors have tapped into the natural energies of the planet, building stone circles, standing stones, pyramids and temples in a highly evolved and brilliantly executed network of energy centres around the world. Thousands of years later, this ancient knowledge was brutally suppressed by the early Catholic church and ignored by science. But it still lingered on, kept by such secret societies as the Knights Templar and the Masons, who designed buildings and whole cities incorporating this esoteric knowledge, hidden in plain view. Here, Cowan brings together his own work with the findings of other researchers and reveals his discovery that the energy lines emanate from volcanic sources that spew out natural telluric energies in all directions, like the spokes of a wheel!

The Secret Chamber of OsirisLost Knowledge of the Sixteen PyramidsSCOTT CREIGHTONAfter nearly 200 years of the pyramid-as-tomb theory, a growing body of evidence suggests the first 16 pyramids of ancient Egypt were not royal tombs, but nearly indestructible recovery vaults designed to revive civilisation after an anticipated major catastrophe, the Deluge of Thoth. Scott Creighton examines the prophecy of catastrophe and the ancient Egyptians' massive undertaking to ensure the survival of their civilisation.

Death on Mars The Discovery of a Planetary Nuclear Massacre JOHN E. BRANDENBURG New proof of a nuclear catastrophe on Mars! In an epic story of discovery, strong evidence is presented for a dead civilisation on Mars and the shocking reason for its demise: an ancient planetary-scale nuclear massacre leaving isotopic traces of vast explosions that endure to our present age. The story told by a wide range of Mars data is now clear. Mars was once Earth-like in climate, with an ocean and rivers and for a long period became home to both plant and animal life, including a humanoid civilisation. Then, for unfathomable reasons, a massive thermo-nuclear explosion ravaged the centres of the Martian civilisation and destroyed the biosphere of the planet.

paganismDemons and Spirits of the Land Ancestral Lore and Practices CLAUDE LECOUTEUXOur pagan ancestors knew that every forest has brownies and fairies, every spring its lady and every river malevolent beings in its depths. They told tales of giants in the hills, dragons in the lakes, marshes swarming with will-o’-the-wisps and demons and wild folk in the mountains who enjoyed causing landslides, avalanches and floods. They both feared and respected these entities, knowing the importance of appeasing them for safe travel and a prosperous homestead. Lecouteux reveals how, despite outright Church suppression, belief in these spirits carried through to modern times and was a primary influence on architecture, an influence still visible in today’s buildings. The author, also, shows how our ancestors’ concern for respecting nature is increasingly relevant in today’s world.ISBN: 978 1 62055 399 2

Pagan Magic of the Northern TraditionCustoms, Rites, and CeremoniesNIGEL PENNICKExploring the magical pagan traditions of the people now called Celtic, Germanic, Scandinavian, Slavonic and Baltic, Nigel Pennick examines the underlying principle of the Northern Tradition – the concept of Wyrd – and how it empowers the arts of operative magic, such as direct natural magic and talismanic or sigil magic. Explaining all the traditional holidays and activities necessary to honour them, Pennick shows how anyone can participate authentically in the magic of the Northern Tradition if they take care to do things properly, with respect and on the right day.

Christian Mythology

Revelations of Pagan OriginsPHILIPPE WALTERIn this extensive study of the Christian mythology that animated Europe in the Middle Ages, author, Philippe Walter, reveals how these stories and the holiday traditions connected with them are based on long-standing pagan rituals and myths and have very little connection to the Bible. Providing extensive documentation, Walter shows which major calendar days of the Christian year are founded on pagan rituals and myths, including the high holidays of Easter and Christmas. Examining hagiographic accounts of the saints, he reveals the origin of these symbolic figures in the deities worshipped in pagan Europe for centuries. In revealing the pagan roots of many Christian figures, stories and rituals, Walters provides a new understanding of the evolution of religious belief.

The History of Classical Music for BeginnersR. RYAN ENDRISILLUSTRATED BY JOE LEEMusic history is nearly as old as human civilisation itself and while it has permeated the arts and popular culture for centuries, it still has a mystifying aura surrounding it. But fear not – it's not as complicated as it seems and anyone can learn the origins and history of Western classical music. In addition to learning how better to understand (and enjoy!) classical music, this book will help you learn some of the more interesting and sometimes comical stories behind the music and composers. For example: Did you know that Jean-Baptiste Lully actually died from conducting one of his own compositions? You may have heard of Gregorian chant, but did you know there are many forms of chant, including Ambrosian and Byzantine chant? And did you, also, know that only a small portion of “classical music” is even technically Classical?

Dream WeaverA Memoir; Music, Meditation, and My Friendship with George HarrisonGARY WRIGHTBest known for his multiplatinum hits “Dream Weaver” and “Love is Alive,” Gary Wright came to prominence as a singer and songwriter during the golden age of rock in the 1970s. What is not as well known to the public, however, is Wright’s spiritual side. At the heart of this memoir is the spiritual conversion and journey that Wright experienced alongside his close friend George Harrison. Until Harrison’s death in 2001, the two spent decades together writing songs, eating Indian fare, talking philosophy and gardening. In addition to featuring lyrics to a never-released recording of a song cowritten by Wright and George Harrison in 1971, titled “To Discover Yourself,” this memoir includes a cache of never-before- seen photos.

Awakening Higher ConsciousnessGuidance from Ancient Egypt and SumerLLOYD M. DICKIE AND PAUL R. BOUDREAUIn this study of ancient Sumerian, Egyptian, Babylonian and Hebrew myths, authors, Lloyd M. Dickie and Paul R. Boudreau, show that many classic myths contain instructions for awakening higher consciousness, allowing access to enlivened experience of the world and awareness of the divine within and around us. Spending more than a year in Egypt to connect personally with the myths, the authors explain how ancient storytellers intentionally chose myths as a vehicle for teachings because story has a seed-like capacity to implant itself in the unconscious and influence development without the individual being aware of it.

Bulfinch’s MythologyThe Classic Introduction to Myth and LegendA Cornerstone EditionComplete and UnabridgedTHOMAS BULFINCHBULFINCH’S MYTHOLOGY began as three separate volumes in the 1850s and ‘60s. Bulfinch published The Age of Fable, or Stories of Gods and Heroes in 1855 and then moved on to publish two more collections: The Age of Chivalry, or the Legends of King Arthur in 1858 and Legends of Charlemagne, or Romance of the Middle Ages in 1863. When Bulfinch died in 1867, the three volumes were combined and retitled BULFINCH'S MYTHOLOGY and reprinted in 1881. It has remained one of the most trusted English-language interpretations of Greek and Roman mythology, Arthurian legend and mediaeval romance ever since.

Who Was Dracula?Bram Stoker’s Trail of BloodJIM STEINMEYERThough the name may conjure up images of Bela Lugosi lurking about in a cape and white pancake makeup in the iconic 1931 film, the character of Dracula was created in Bram Stoker’s 1897 novel of the same name. But what sources inspired Stoker to craft a monster who would continue to haunt our dreams (and desires) for generations? Historian, Jim Steinmeyer, explores a question that has long fascinated literary scholars and the reading public alike: Was there a real-life inspiration for Stoker’s Count Dracula?

For the Love of LemursMy Life in the Wilds of MadagascarPATRICIA CHAPPLE WRIGHTIn 1986, primatologist, Patricia Chapple Wright, was given a seemingly impossible task: to travel to the rainforests of

Madagascar and find the greater bamboo lemur, a species that hadn't been seen in the wild

for thirty years. Not only did Wright discover that the primate still existed, but that it lived alongside a completely new species.

In this frank and enchanting sequel to High Moon

Over the Amazon, Wright recounts the many challenges she faced, including separation from her daughter, a tempestuous romance with a fellow scientist and political upheaval that threatens her dream of establishing a national park to ensure the safety of her precious lemurs.

Permaculture A Spiritual Approach CRAIG GIBSONE AND JAN MARTIN BANGPermaculture is about designing sustainable human settlements. It is a philosophical, spiritual and practical approach to land-use, integrating microclimate, functional plants, animals, soils, water management and human needs into intricately connected, highly productive systems. Permaculture looks for the patterns embedded in our natural world as inspirations for designing solutions to the many challenges we are presented with today. The authors look at the components Earthshare, Fairshare and Peoplecare, with a specific emphasis on the spiritual aspects of Permaculture. The Findhorn Foundation Ecovillage and other ecovillages around the world are used as examples.

Sacred SeedFor centuries the planting of the seed in the earth not only nourished humanity, but, also, symbolised the mystery of life and the journey of the soul. In our current supermarket lifestyle of pre-packaged products, far removed from the cycles of planting, we have nearly forgotten this mystery. Now as the integrity of the seed is threatened, so is its primal meaning. Inspired by physicist and environmental leader, Dr. Vandana Shiva, each essay draws on the wisdom of ancient and modern traditions. Mystics, shamans, monks and priests remind us of the profound sacredness of the seed – how in its purity, it is the source and renewal of all of life.

The Wastewater GardenerPreserving the Planet One Flush at a TimeMARK NELSONMark Nelson takes us on a global expedition to learn how we are wasting the world's dwindling supplies of fresh water by flushing away a very valuable resource, our own human wastes! A founding director of the Institute of Ecotechnics, Dr. Nelson has worked for several decades in closed ecological system research. As one of eight brave souls enclosed in the pioneering Biosphere 2 experiment, he realised how essential the proper re-use of human waste is to the health of the planet. This led to what Dr. Nelson calls a life-long love affair with constructed wetlands, where he discovered an important solution to some of our trickiest global dilemmas: Wastewater Gardens.

The Oxen at The IntersectionA CollisionPATTRICE JONESWhen a local college announced that two oxen called Bill and Lou would be killed and turned into hamburgers despite their years of service as unofficial college and town mascots, Pattrice Jones and her colleagues at nearby VINE Sanctuary offered to allow the elderly bovines to retire to the sanctuary. What transpired after this simple offer was a catastrophe of miscommunication and misinterpretations, as the college dug in its heels, activists piled in and social media erupted. Part true-crime mystery, part on-the-ground reportage and part socio-cultural critique, THE OXEN AT THE INTERSECTION is a brilliant unearthing of the assumptions, preconceptions and biases that led all concerned with the lives and deaths of these two animals to fail to achieve their ends.

Restoring The Soul of The WorldOur Living Bond WIth Nature's IntelligenceDAVID FIDELERFor millennia the world was seen as a creative, interconnected web of life, constantly growing, developing and restoring itself. But with the arrival of the Scientific Revolution in the 16th and 17th centuries, the world was viewed as a lifeless, clock like mechanism, bound by the laws of classical physics. Intelligence was a trait ascribed solely to human beings and, thus, humanity was viewed as superior to and separate from nature. Today new scientific discoveries are reviving the ancient philosophy of a living, interconnected cosmos and humanity is learning from and collaborating with nature's intelligence in new, life-enhancing ways, from ecological design to biomimicry.
