The Anarchy tells the remarkable story of how one of the world’s most magnificent empires disintegrated and came to be replaced by a dangerously unregulated private company, based thousands of miles overseas in one small office, five windows wide, and answerable only to its distant shareholders. In his most ambitious and riveting audiobook to date, William Dalrymple tells the story of the East India Company as it has never been told before, unfolding a timely cautionary tale of the first global corporate power.

Story57
In the spring of 1839, Britain invaded Afghanistan for the first time. Nearly 20,000 British and East India Company troops poured through the high mountain passes and re-established on the throne Shah Shuja ul-Mulk. On the way in, the British faced little resistance. But after two years of occupation, the Afghan people rose in answer to the call for jihad and the country exploded into violent rebellion. The First Anglo-Afghan War ended in Britain's greatest military humiliation of the 19th century.

Story0
As I revisited my old manuscripts, I stumbled upon a collection of lectures I delivered over forty-eight years ago, focusing on the remarkable women of the Old and New Testament. These lectures arose from my reflections on the vital role of female character and the profound influence women have in every aspect of life. I recognized the challenges in addressing women directly from the pulpit, where praise might feel like flattery and critique could seem overly simplistic. However, by exploring the timeless stories of women from scripture, I found a unique opportunity to celebrate their virtues ...

In The Obedience of a Christian Man, we explore the stark contrast between the life of a true Christian and the opulent lifestyles of high-ranking officials within the Roman Catholic Church. This powerful critique targets the Popes, Cardinals, and Bishops who indulge in luxury while neglecting their duty to teach Scripture, often aligning themselves with inconsistent Doctors of theology. William Tyndale boldly asserts that true Christians will face persecution for their faith in Christ and offers guidance on how believers, from servants to rulers, should conduct themselves. This compelling ...

Since its rise to the highest ranks of power in Renaissance Europe, the Borgia family has developed a scandalous reputation. While they were indeed ostentatious, calculating, worldly, cruel - and even, occasionally, murderous - you may be surprised to find that the Borgias were not terribly different from other powerful and ambitious families of their day. So why has history set them apart as one of the most corrupt and reviled families in history?

During the 19th century, the United States entered the ranks of the world's most advanced and dynamic economies. At the same time, the nation sustained an expansive and brutal system of human bondage. This was no mere coincidence. Slavery's Capitalism argues for slavery's centrality to the emergence of American capitalism in the decades between the Revolution and the Civil War.

A former member of the State Department's Policy Planning Council, Polk describes a country and a history misunderstood by many in the West. While Iranians chafe under the yolk of their current leaders, they also have bitter memories of generations of British, Russian, and American espionage, invasion, and dominance. There are important lessons to be learned from the past, and Polk teases them out of a long and rich history and shows that it is not just now, but for decades to come that an understanding of Iran will be essential to American safety and well-being.
