    The epic tale of victory and defeatThe story of the Ramayana had been told innumerable times. The enthralling story of Rama, the incarnation of God, who slew Ravana, the evil demon of darkness, is known to every Indian. And in the pages of history, as always, it is the version told by the victors that lives on. The voice of the vanquished remains lost in silence. But what if Ravana and his people had a different story to tell? The story of the Ravanayana had never been told. Asura is the epic tale of the vanquished Asura people, a story that has been cherished by the oppressed outcastes of India for 3,000 years. Until now, no Asura has dared to tell the tale. But perhaps the time has come for the dead and the defeated to speak. For thousands of years, I have been vilified and my death is celebrated year after year in every corner of India. Why? Was it because I challenged the gods for the sake of my daughter? Was it because I freed a race from the yoke of caste-based Deva rule? You have heard the victor's tale, the Ramayana. Now hear the Ravanayana, for I am Ravana, the Asura, and my story is the tale of the vanquished.I am a non-entity - invisible, powerless and negligible. No epics will ever be written about me. I have suffered both Ravana and Rama - the hero and the villain or the villain and the hero. When the stories of great men are told, my voice maybe too feeble to be heard. Yet, spare me a moment and hear my story, for I am Bhadra, the Asura, and my life is the tale of the loser.The ancient Asura empire lay shattered into many warring petty kingdoms reeling under the heel of the Devas. In desperation, the Asuras look up to a young saviour - Ravana. Believing that a better world awaits them under Ravana, common men like Bhadra decide to follow the young leader. With a will of iron and a fiery ambition to succeed, Ravana leads his people from victory to victory and carves out a vast empire from the Devas. Bu ungekürzt. Language: English.

    Please note: This is an analysis and key takeaways of the book and is not the original book. Start Publishing Notes' Summary, Analysis, and Review of Bill O'Reilly and Martin Dugard's Killing the Rising Sun: How America Vanquished Japan includes: A summary of the book A review Analysis and key takeaways A detailed "About the Author" section Preview: Bill O'Reilly and Martin Dugard have co-authored six books in the Killing... series; each of the previous five analyzes a relatively short period in the death or defeat of a significant historical figure. This book, by contrast, focuses on the defeat of an entire nation, Japan, as well as the millions of Japanese who died during the course of World War II. O'Reilly and Dugard follow the US and Japan during the last year of the conflict, marshaling evidence to argue in favor of the wisdom of President Harry Truman's decision to drop atomic bombs on the cities of Hiroshima and Nagasaki. The book begins with O'Reilly, writing alone, invoking a speech given in 2001 by controversial Chicago pastor Jeremiah Wright. Wright had argued that the 9/11 terrorist attacks were divine vengeance for the decision to bomb Hiroshima, Nagasaki, and many other cities around the world. O'Reilly takes umbrage with this and claims that he and co-author Dugard will set the record straight, proving that the bombings of those two cities was the most humane course of action. ungekürzt.

    A California politician goes to Mexico to make himself king.The Sonorans hire Henry Crabb to protect them from Apaches. In the lawless days that followed the Mexican-American War, bands of Indians roamed the countryside, preying on the hard-working peasants of northern Mexico. Desperate for help, a farming community offers Crabb land to establish a colony in exchange for a year’s protection from the marauders. The Sonorans do not recognize that Crabb—a Californian with frustrated political ambition—is the greatest threat of all. Although their deal was for peaceful settlement, Crabb’s thoughts turn quickly to conquest. In the tradition of American filibusters like William Walker, Crabb attempts to establish Sonora as an independent country—with him as the dictator. Based on a true story, this is a stunning narrative of conquest, adventure, and the shocking lengths to which ambition can drive men. ungekürzt. Language: English. Narrator: Jim Beaver.
