The Heretic's Daughter


Lanna Blyth - 2014
    Her brother’s lover. All of Egypt’s shame....Ankesunamun is born a royal princess to an Egyptian king – an heretical king, bent on transforming the country to his singular vision and worship of the One God. The cost is high, but pharaoh is blind to the suffering and rivers of blood that come at his command, and deaf to the angry cries of his country.Heresy and disorder reign as Ankesunamun grows up surrounded by plague, bitter rivalry, jealousy, and anarchy. The ancient world of an heretic princess is over-shadowed by danger – but also love and loyalty. Her brothers, Smenkhare and Tutankhamun, are brought to live with the royal family in a foundling city; and Ankesunamun finds herself irresistibly, inescapably drawn to her older brother, the man destined to be her sister’s husband. Married off to Tutankhamun instead, Ankesunamun finds that cannot forget her erstwhile lover, invoking her proud sister’s jealous and fatal wrath.But there’s more at stake than a lover’s secret and a sister’s vengeance. As the country degrades into tumultuous rebellion, and death lurks so very closely stealing away those she loves most, Ankesunamun is brought to the throne alongside Tutankhamun – a child king who is determined on the path of battle-glory and over-turning his father’s destructive legacy, resurrecting an Egypt of old. But already somebody is plotting for the crown that rests so tenuously on the Boy King’s head… In this story of incestuous love and riotous anarchy, there are secrets, betrayals, passion, destruction of cities, and death. Ancient Egypt and the world of Tutankhamun comes to life through The Heretic’s Daughter, weaving an engrossing, thought-provoking web of intrigue and obsession – all in the words of the one person who might just have survived the destruction of one of Egypt’s great dynasties.

Henry Ford: A Life From Beginning to End


Hourly History - 2017
    Born on a farm in rural Michigan three weeks after the battle of Gettysburg, Ford hated everything about farming as soon as he could understand what it was about. So he turned his attention to the farm machinery that made the family farm run, and never looked back. It was his love of machines, then engines, and finally automobiles that Henry Ford is best known for. He designed and manufactured cars which would transform not just his family's little farm, and not just the city of Detroit. The automobile would change the world; ushering in a whole new way of living one's life. A modern life, to be sure. Beneath this diligent tycoon, lay a man of many contradictions. He worked hard to give the average American an affordable car and believed that mass consumerism was the key to keeping the world safe from war. Yet he opposed labor unions, supposedly sired a son with another woman, and was an enthusiastic anti-Semite. Inside you will read about... ✓ Henry Ford's Early Years ✓ Ford's Love for Engines ✓ The Ford Motor Company and the Model T ✓ Disdain of Labor Unions ✓ The Anti-Semite Problem ✓ Later Years and Death And much more! Follow along as you come to know Henry Ford, the man responsible for putting America and the world behind the wheels of their own cars. Was this man a genius or a dominator? Did he want those around him to live free lives with the things he invented or was he only satisfied when people read his newspaper and obeyed his advice? Read on, and form your own conclusion.
