It considers each of the major components of British politics, such as the Monarchy and the House of Lords, the Commons, voting behaviour, parties and pressure groups, the Prime Minister and Cabinet, devolution, local government, and foreign policy. Its contents include coverage of recent events such as the Scottish Referendum and the 2015 General Election. This readable and comprehensive introduction will be of key interest to A-level students, undergraduates and those new to the study of British politics.

From Nicaragua

Principles for Life and Mission

By: Bill Cox

When I was just twenty-eight years old, I was diagnosed with cancer and given no hope. What I thought would be my end was just the beginning of a journey laden with miracles that took me far from my home in Tennessee. From Nicaragua: Principles for Life and Mission chronicles that journey. It is a story that begins with a love that God gave me for a place I had never been and for a people I did not know. With nothing more than that love, I purposed in my heart to go to Nicaragua to stand with its people in their struggle to make a better life for themselves. Following that commitment, God made provision for the planting of a ministry there that has changed tens of thousands of lives, including mine. For me, a special part of that divine provision proceeded from a miraculous reunion with my Central American family whose patriarch, Col. John Alexander Downing, traveled to Nicaragua in 1866 with a fellow Missourian who later became renowned as one of Americas most famous literary icons. Embedded in this extraordinary story of God events are principles for your life and mission. La base sobre la cual se han fundamentado cada una de las palabras contenidas en las pginas de este libro provienen de mi amor y admiracin por el pueblo de Nicaragua. Los nicaragensesson gente muy orgullosa y patritica con una rica herencia cultural. Dndole un gran valor a sus relaciones afectivas, son gente muy cariosa y amable. Habiendo soportado muchos desastres naturales, disturbios polticos, guerras civiles y colapso econmico, los nicaragenseshan demostrado ser muy fuertes, siempre llenos de esperanza. De esta maravillosa gente he aprendido muchas de las mas valiosas lecciones de la vida.

No Safe Place

By: Bill G. Cox

He Abused Her Body... Everyone who knew them thought stunning Farah Fratta and her husband Robert, a firefighter and public safety officer, had it all--a solid, nine-year marriage, three beautiful children, and a comfortable house in a middle class Houston suburb. But behind closed doors, Robert's deviant sexual appetites trapped Farah in a world of sick perversity...until she filed for divorce in 1992. Her Terrorized Her In Her Own Home... During a bitter custody suit, Farah bravely recounted--in graphic detail--her husband's bizarre sexual demands, which the presiding judge called the most depraved behavior he'd ever heard. Then Fratt'a behavior turned violent. Hoping to intimate his wife into dropping the proceedings against him, he hired an ex-con to brutally rape and torture her with a stun gun. Two years after the case began, the court was about to rule in Farah's favor...and seal her fate. Then He Took Her Life... On the night of November 9, 1994, as an unsuspecting Farah stepped out of her car, a man wearing a black ski mask emerged from the backyard and pumped two lethal bullets into her head. Charged with Farah's murder, Fratta tried to use a visit with his children as an alibi. Instead, he and two others were convicted of the bloody plot and sentenced to die by lethal injection.

The Estrada Plot

How the FBI Captured a Secret Army and Stopped the Invasion of Mexico

By: Bill Mills

By 1926 the Mexican government of Plutarco Elías Calles had sparked widespread discontent with its radical social policies. Plots to overthrow the administration ran rampant. One of the strangest conspiracies arose within a clique of exiled Mexican military officers . . . in Hollywood. Bill Mills takes readers inside the forgotten story of General Enrique Estrada and his Southern California army. Secretly gathering recruits from city barrios and Imperial Valley farms, Estrada and his staff of ex-generals not only built an invasion force but stockpiled an arsenal of small arms to supply it. Attempts to acquire armored vehicles and airplanes had moved forward when law enforcement got wind of the clandestine military activity. The Federal Bureau of Investigation, newly reorganized under J. Edgar Hoover, assigned a four-man team to unravel the plot. Racing against time, the agents pitted old-school legwork against Estrada’s determination and, as the day of the invasion arrived, confronted the general’s caravan fewer than ten miles from the Mexican border. Packed with intrigue, The Estrada Plot is the unlikely true crime drama of how the early FBI foiled an invasion from within the United States.

In 1991, the body of Melody Sue Wuertz and her baby were found viciously mutilated; a satanic symbol carved into Wuertz's stomach.

The Blood of Patriots

How I Took Down an Anti-Government Militia with Beer, Bounty Hunting, and Badassery

By: Bill Fulton,Jeanne Devon

When Bill Fulton arrived in Alaska, he was filled with optimism and big dreams. When he left, it was under FBI escort. Bill was Army Infantry. When his knees gave out, he opened the Drop Zone, a military surplus store in Anchorage, and started hiring fellow vets. Sharpshooting hippies, crew-cutted fundamentalists, PTSD sufferers—all seeking purpose and direction. Alaska gave it to them. The Last Frontier is vast. The perfect refuge for fugitives and the perfect place for vets itching for a mission, Alaska is a giant icebox full of people either running to or away from something. More than 400 fugitives would meet Bill and company on the wrong side of a gun, and he would learn many lessons along the way—like even tiptoeing through subzero snow can get you shot, and removing a gun from the butt crack of a 300-pound man is just as fun as it sounds. Bill was enjoying the ride until, one day, the FBI asked him to go undercover, and his road forked. Schaeffer Cox was a sovereign citizen who believed no government had authority over him and a private militia commander amassing an arsenal and plotting to kill judges and law enforcement officers. Bill's mission: to take down Cox and his militia without a shot being fired. The Blood of Patriots traverses a wide swath of rugged territory. Raucously funny and stark, it depicts men, once brothers in arms serving their country, who now find themselves on opposite sides of those arms in a deadly test of the intricacies of liberty, the proper role of government, and the true meaning of patriotism. It offers a witty and unsettling look at political rhetoric gone haywire and a movement the FBI considers the single greatest threat to law enforcement in the nation—all set in the beautiful, terrifying landscape of our 49th State.

A Bold Fresh Piece of Humanity

A Memoir

By: Bill O'Reilly

One day in 1957, in the third-grade classroom of St. Brigid’s parochial school, an exasperated Sister Mary Lurana bent over a restless young William O’Reilly and said, “William, you are a bold, fresh piece of humanity.” Little did she know that she was, early in his career as a troublemaker, defining the essence of Bill O’Reilly and providing him with the title of his brash and entertaining issues-based memoir. In his most intimate book yet, O’Reilly goes back in time to examine the people, places, and experiences that launched him on his journey from working-class kid to immensely influential television personality and bestselling author. Readers will learn how his traditional outlook was formed in the crucible of his family, his neighborhood, his church, and his schools, and how his views on America’s proper role in the world emerged from covering four wars on five continents over three-plus decades as a news correspondent. What will delight his numerous fans and surprise many others is the humor and self-deprecation with which he handles one of his core subjects: himself, and just how O’Reilly became O’Reilly.
