The federal Bureau of Investigation was founded in 1908 to provide the Justice Department with its own investigative force. The Bureau began with an emphasis on land fraud investigations and Mann Act enforcement. This focus quickly transformed into enforcement of the US Neutrality Laws mostly along the border with Mexico. Resistance against President Porfirio Diaz began with the Flores-Magon movement, largely based in the US and seen as a national security threat because of connections to the anarchist and labor movements. Marking the beginning of the Mexican Revolution, Francisco Madero, who organized his faction on US soil, overthrew Diaz in 1911. He was himself overthrown and killed in 1913 after several challenges to his rule from factions emanating from Texas. In the resulting civil war, all major revolutionary factions continued to source finance and supplies in the US. Smuggling, profiteering, mounting armed incursions, and recruiting for the different Mexican factions set the border on fire. Navigating local resistance to federal involvement, hostile courts, corruption, and switching loyalties of Mexican revolutionary leaders posed the largest challenges for the burgeoning Bureau. Meeting these challenges on a shoestring budget, and suffering some embarrassing setbacks, the Bureau developed from a small office in Washington DC into an effective national investigative force within a few years. The expansion of the Bureau accelerated rapidly under the leadership of A. Bruce Bielaski, who became the second chief of the Bureau in 1912. Neutrality Law enforcement prepared the Bureau for the challenges of the coming World War, when it developed from largely a law enforcement agency to the premier intelligence and counterintelligence agency of the US government.

A vivid account of two Mosquito squadrons which revolutionised aerial warfare. Perfect for people who enjoyed the memoirs of Robin Olds, Pierre Clostermann and Geoffrey Wellum. John Wooldridge was a commanding officer of 105 Squadron during World War Two and his book recounts how he and his fellow pilots of 105 and 139 Squadrons utilised the Mosquito plane to sting Nazi defences with daring low-level attacks. The de Havilland Mosquito was developed at a time when metal was at a premium for Britain's hard-pressed aircraft industry and it was constructed out of wood by a range of unlikely firms, from coachbuilders to furniture makers. Able to carry two thousand pounds of bombs, it had a range of 1,200 miles and a top speed of 380mph which meant that the Mosquito was the perfect plane for low-level daylight assaults on pinpoint targets. Low Attack provides personal insights into the activities of the men of both 105 and 139 Squadrons, highlighting some of their most courageous attacks, including the raid on the Gestapo H.Q. in Oslo, during September 1942, the engine works in Copenhagen and the main broadcasting station in Berlin both in January 1943. The latter being the first daylight attack made by the R.A.F. on Berlin. John Wooldridge interviewed many of his fellow pilots to gain a thorough and varied view of what it was like flying these little 'Wooden Wonders'. This book should be essential reading for all interested how one wooden plane and few brave pilots changed the course of the battle of the skies in Allies' favour. "The skill and high courage of the aircrews whose exploits are the subject of this book need no commendation or embellishment. The targets attacked with such determination and success by these numerically small bomber forces ... was a contribution of real value to the Bomber Offensive". Air Chief Marshal Sir Arthur Harris
The Writing Mind: Creative Writing Responses to Images of the Living Brain includes 60 creatively enhanced, colour images of the living brain. Each image is followed by two short-form creative writing responses: prose and poetry written as ekphrastic 'replies' to the images. This book was conceived through a partnership between the Australasian Association of Writing Programs (AAWP), the peak academic body representing the discipline of Creative Writing in Australasia, and the Science Art Network (ScAN), affiliated with the neuroimaging department at Swinburne University, Melbourne, Australia. The broader context for the partnership is a Creative Writing Neuroimaging Research Study currently being undertaken at Swinburne University's neuroimaging facility. The study investigates the activity in participants' brains while undertaking a creative writing workshop. While The Writing Mind focuses on creative rather than traditional research outputs, it nevertheless reflects the shared commitment of AAWP and ScAN-an abiding fidelity to transdisciplinary, open and collaborative research practices. AAWP and ScAN share an interest in the intersections between diverse disciplines-arts/science and arts/health-while considering the ways we can work together for the future for our fields and for a better world.

It's written by a dad who loves his sons and daughters, who wants the best for them, and who is crying out for them to follow God and His Word-not their own interests, desires, and passions.Though Proverbs lacks the stories found in the Gospels and other Old Testament books, it contains the wisdom of God in just a few words.

So He inspired Proverbs to do just that.Contrary to the world's call to "live and learn," the promise of Proverbs is "learn and live."

If you do, you'll gain what Proverbs offers: the opportunity to understand God's wise sayings; to develop discernment; to receive instruction on how to live righteously, justly, and fairly; to choose a life direction and purpose; to obey God's wisdom from the heart; and to never stop learning from the Word of God.Papa Mike has studied the endless fountain of truth that is the book of Proverbs ever since he became a Christian forty-eight years ago-and he is still learning from it today.

Who was Jimmy Savile? More than anything he was a list of contradictions. He was a practising Catholic who raped young boys and girls and had sex with corpses. He was a God-fearing believer who participated in satanic rituals. He was an unprecedentedly generous charity fundraiser who was too tight to buy his own meals. He was a friend of princes and dukes who ate bacon sandwiches at his local greasy spoon. He was a peace activist who tied up troublemakers in his nightclubs and had them brutally beaten. He was a fairy godfather who hated children.Through his relationships with the Royal Family, Prime Minister Margaret Thatcher and Pope John Paul, who gave him a Papal Knighthood, Savile built a powerbase that insulated him from prosecution. Raised to the heights of fame by the BBC, this evil genius preyed on the young and vulnerable for over five decades.The Untouchable Jimmy Savile book series demolishes the mainstream media narratives portrayed in Netflix's Jimmy Savile: A British Horror Story and the BBC's The Reckoning to show that Savile's behaviour was enabled by the most powerful members of the establishment for whom he was a fixer and a procurer.
