A journalist's twenty-year fascination with the Manson murders leads to "gobsmacking" (The Ringer) new revelations about the FBI's involvement in this "kaleidoscopic" (The New York Times) reassessment of an infamous case in American history.   Over two grim nights in Los Angeles, the young followers of Charles Manson murdered seven people, including the actress Sharon Tate, then eight months pregnant. With no mercy and seemingly no motive, the Manson Family followed their leader's every order -- their crimes lit a flame of paranoia across the nation, spelling the end of the sixties. Manson became one of history's most infamous criminals, his name forever attached to an era when charlatans mixed with prodigies, free love was as possible as brainwashing, and utopia -- or dystopia -- was just an acid trip away.   Twenty years ago, when journalist Tom O'Neill was reporting a magazine piece about the murders, he worried there was nothing new to say. Then he unearthed shocking evidence of a cover-up behind the "official" story, including police carelessness, legal misconduct, and potential surveillance by intelligence agents. When a tense interview with Vincent Bugliosi -- prosecutor of the Manson Family and author of Helter Skelter -- turned a friendly source into a nemesis, O'Neill knew he was onto something. But every discovery brought more questions:   Who were Manson's real friends in Hollywood, and how far would they go to hide their ties? Why didn't law enforcement, including Manson's own parole officer, act on their many chances to stop him? And how did Manson -- an illiterate ex-con -- turn a group of peaceful hippies into remorseless killers?   O'Neill's quest for the truth led him from reclusive celebrities to seasoned spies, from San Francisco's summer of love to the shadowy sites of the CIA's mind-control experiments, on a trail rife with shady cover-ups and suspicious coincidences. The product of two decades of reporting, hundreds of new interviews, and dozens of never-before-seen documents from the LAPD, the FBI, and the CIA, Chaos mounts an argument that could be, according to Los Angeles Deputy District Attorney Steven Kay, strong enough to overturn the verdicts on the Manson murders. This is a book that overturns our understanding of a pivotal time in American history.   Read more

One woman on trial. A system on display.Karen Read was charged with murdering her Boston police officer boyfriend, John O’Keefe. What followed wasn’t a quest for truth—it was a high-speed railroading through a justice system built to protect its own.This graphic novel takes you inside the heart of the Karen Read case—not through the lens of headlines or press conferences, but through the cracks in the official story. What emerges is a chilling portrait of institutional corruption, a courtroom drama where the deck is stacked, and a legal process that punished doubt instead of honoring it.With bold visuals and hard-hitting storytelling, this isn’t just a retelling of a high-profile trial. It’s a visual investigation of the reasonable doubt that was ignored, the red flags that were buried, and the disturbing complicity of those meant to safeguard justice—from dirty cops to a judiciary that turned a blind eye.This is not fiction. This is a reckoning.If justice demands proof beyond a reasonable doubt, then this book dares to ask: Was that standard ever met? Or was Karen Read simply the easiest one to blame?Where the truth was silenced, this story speaks loud. Line by line. Panel by panel. Read more

Like many major historical events, Abraham Lincoln’s assassination had an official story and a back story.On April 14, 1865, the President was shot by actor John Wilkes Booth, a Southern Sympathizer, at Ford’s Theatre in Washington. Simultaneously, a Booth accomplice, Lewis Powell, attempted to stab to death William Seward, the Secretary of State, at his home. Though not expected to live, Seward survived his wounds. Booth and another accomplice, David Herold, rode south. On April 26, Union cavalry tracked the pair to a Virginia barn. Herold surrendered; Booth refused. Despite orders to bring him back alive, Booth was mortally wounded by a soldier who fired through an opening in the barn. Afterwards, a military court tried eight alleged Booth accomplices. Four were hanged—including Mary Surratt, the first woman executed by the United States—and four sentenced to prison at hard labor.So ends the official story in a nutshell, which is all most people know, due to media control plus removal of critical documents from government archives. James Perloff dismantles that story in his new book, thanks to the digitization of handwritten 19th century documents, and with help from two intrepid predecessors—one alive, the other dead for more than 60 years. Readers may be surprised at how much 1860s America resembled today’s America, with a Deep State behind the scenes, controlled information, suppression of civil liberties, and secret agendas.Among the book’s questions—some answering, some just asking:● Why, on a dishonest pretext, did Secretary of War Edwin Stanton deny Lincoln the protection he requested at Ford’s Theatre? ● Why was Lincoln assigned a disreputable bodyguard who deserted his post before the assassination, yet was never punished?● How did John Wilkes Booth know he only needed a one-shot derringer to kill the President?● Why were the only actual assassination attempts, by Booth and accomplices, against the only 2 prominent men in the administration—Lincoln and Seward—who opposed the brutal Reconstruction plan devised for the South? ● How was the Ford’s Theatre Presidential box modified to facilitate the murder?● Why did Washington telegraph wires shut down after the assassination?● Why did War Secretary Stanton take charge of the investigation instead of the Attorney General?● Why was Booth’s escape road the only road left unpatrolled?● What did Booth tell Southerners was his real reason for leaving a card at Vice President Johnson’s residence on the day of the assassination?● Secretary Seward’s attempted assassin, Lewis Powell, gained access to the home by pretending to deliver medicine—how did he know the doctor’s name and the house’s exact layout?● Why were soldiers closest to capturing Booth replaced by a select Washington detachment, including 2 commanders who were trusted associates of Stanton right-hand man Lafayette Baker?● Why was the court-martial of the sergeant—who, against orders, allegedly shot Booth—cancelled?● Why was Booth’s diary, recovered from his body, never entered in evidence at the conspiracy trial, kept secret for two years—and when finally exposed, were 43 sheets (86 pages) missing?● Why were Booth’s alleged accomplices denied a jury trial and prompt defense counsel?● Why were they continuously shackled, heads hooded, before being either hanged or sent to a remote island prison west of Key West?● What close friend of Booth was also old friends with Stanton’s intelligence chief William Wood?● Why (more questions)?

“A great journalist” raises troubling questions about the forgotten war in this courageous, controversial book—with a new introduction by Bruce Cumings (The Baltimore Sun). “Much about the Korean War is still hidden, and much will long remain hidden. I believe I have succeeded in throwing new light on its origins.” —From the author’s preface In 1945 US troops arrived in Korea for what would become America’s longest-lasting conflict. While history books claim without equivocation that the war lasted from 1950 to 1953, those who have actually served there know better. By closely analyzing US intelligence before June 25, 1950 (the war’s official start), and the actions of key players like John Foster Dulles, General Douglas MacArthur, and Chiang Kai-shek, the great investigative reporter I. F. Stone demolishes the official story of America’s “forgotten war” by shedding new light on the tangled sequence of events that led to it. The Hidden History of the Korean War was first published in 1952—during the Korean War—and then republished during the Vietnam War. In the 1990s, documents from the former Soviet archives became available, further illuminating this controversial period in history. Read more

Unveil the shocking truth behind the Covid-19 pandemic in this explosive exposé that challenges everything you thought you knew. In It Was Never About Your Health, Alan Roberts delivers a meticulously researched, no-holds-barred investigation into how a mild illness for most was transformed into a global crisis through fear, manipulation, and greed. Drawing on peer-reviewed studies, government data, and undeniable evidence, Roberts argues that Covid-19—akin to a new type of cold for the healthy majority—was overhyped for political power and astronomical profits, leaving society, especially children, to bear the devastating fallout.From inflated death counts and ineffective lockdowns to the suppression of proven therapies like ivermectin and hydroxychloroquine, this book uncovers the hidden agendas that cost taxpayers $150 billion, enriched pharmaceutical giants like Pfizer with $36 billion in vaccine revenue, and inflicted a mental health crisis on a generation of kids who faced a near-zero risk from the virus itself. With a gripping narrative and a call for accountability, Roberts reveals how fear was weaponized, rights were stripped away, and science was sidelined—all while the natural decline of the epidemic, predicted by Farr’s Law, was ignored.Perfect for readers who crave truth over narrative, It Was Never About Your Health is a provocative wake-up call that demands justice and offers a bold vision for a future rooted in resilience, freedom, and real science. If you’re ready to question the official story and rethink public health, this book will ignite your curiosity and fuel your determination to never let it happen again.

Full of incredible turns of events including secrets, deceits, lies and betrayals, the history of the Knights Templar from their triumphant conquests to their abrupt fall still fascinates. Find out the hidden history of the Knights Templar that lead to their demise.
Download FREE with Kindle Unlimited!

The Knights Templar existed officially for less than 200 years. Founded to protect pilgrims who were travelling through the Holy Lands, their rise to power was sudden. They became some of the most feared warriors in the region, they had a mandate from God, they controlled perhaps the world’s first real banking system, and they waged war against anyone who tried to wrestle Christianity’s holiest grounds from the control of the Catholic Church. Within their short lifespan, they quickly became one of the most powerful societies in Europe, if not the world.

But, just as they rose to power with relative speed, they fell from grace just as fast. Forged in the crucible of Middle Eastern conflict, their power was soon resented and feared. Before they could become even more powerful, the greatest nations of Europe and the Church turned on them. The once powerful Templars were hunted, caught, tortured, and eventually burned at the stake. According to their prosecutors, they were a devil-worshipping secret society who spat on the cross and plotted against the Pope. They were officially disbanded and their members treated with extreme contempt and prejudice.

Or so goes the official story. In this book, we will not only look into the official history of the Knights Templar, but will examine the various ways their influence and ideas have tunnelled their way into the modern world. A group this powerful does not vanish overnight. Instead, their history has been linked to the Freemasons, to vicious curses, to the butchery of the Crusades, and even to Christian relics such as the Holy Grail. For many people, the Templars did not vanish and they did not relinquish their tight grip on the power structures of mediaeval Europe. Instead, they went underground. Read on to discover the dark and twisted secret history of the Knights Templar.

From the first, it was an adventure. In 1971, at age twenty-five, Galdikas left the placid world of American academia for the remote jungles of Indonesian Borneo. Living with her husband in a primitive camp, she became surrogate mother to a "family" of ex-captive orangutans - and gradually adjusted to the blood-sucking leeches, swarms of carnivorous insects, and constant humidity that rotted her belongings in the first year. Her first son spent the early years of his life at Camp Leakey with adopted orangutans as his only playmates. The wild orangutans Galdikas studied and the ex-captives she rehabilitated became an extended family of characters no less vivid than her human companions. Throatpouch, a huge and irritable grouch, fought off rivals for the right to claim adolescent Priscilla as his mate. Handsome Cara at first tried to rid the forest of its human intruder by hurling dead branches at Galdikas from the canopy above. Little Sugito, rescued from a cramped cage and returned to the jungle claimed Galdikas as his mother and clung to her fiercely, night and day, for months. A groundbreaking chronicler of the orangutans' life cycle, Galdikas also describes the threats that increasingly menace them: the battles with poachers and loggers, the illicit trade in infant orangutans, the frustrations of official bureaucracy. Her story is a rare combination of personal epiphany, crucial scientific discovery, and international impact - a life of human and environmental challenge. Reflections of Eden is the third act of a drama that has captivated the world: the story of a pioneering primatologist, a world leader in conservation, and a remarkable woman. Read more

What If I had Never Tried It is the first autobiography of arguably the world's greatest motorcycle road racing champion, Valentino Rossi. Certainly he is the greatest in modern times and similarly the best loved. This is the official, personal story: fast paced yet insightful.Rossi’s record in the motorcycle road racing World Championship is supreme. First in the ultra-competitive 125 class starting in 1996; then in the 250 class only to graduate shortly thereafter to the big league of the 500s. In 2002 the premier class switched direction moving from 500 cc two-strokes to 990 cc four-strokes from then on to be known as MotoGP. Rossi rides for Honda and wins. He wins on a Honda the next year and then switches to Yamaha, to every race fans’ surprise, and wins against all odds. He wins again in 2005. No one is close. No one is faster. And all at speeds which approach 200 mph.Both on and off-track, on the ubiquitous TV screen or walking in the street, Rossi is idolized as though he were a rock star. From his native Italy to California, from Philips Island to Laguna Seca, he has raised the limits, reshaped the frontiers of the sport and set new trends. Rossi has become the 21st Century face of motorcycle road racing. Yet he remains faithful to himself—one moment the intelligent, articulate interviewee; the next a jokester; the next the single-minded, focused, strategic racer with split-second skills the rest of us can only dream of.
