We now know that Irving's book is total bullshit. He knew nothing about Columbus and made up the whole story from his fervent imagination. When Colon said he was Genoese he was lying to hide his true identity and Irving bought it lock, stock, and barrel. Just imagine how the Italians marching down Broadway would feel if they found out that Chris never wrote one document in Italian in his whole life.

Thank you so much for the most useful review!

Wow!

Whoever made this video has not read David Leigh's book The Wilson Plot. It is not a novel but a well researched, evidence based story of MI5's involvement in discrediting Harold Wilson from his time as a Minister in Atlee's govt to his period as Prime Minister. The book offers significant insights into how secret intelligence agencies undermine democracy and that was before the Internet and social media! This book is well written but well worth a read. Ignore this ridiculous video.

How can I watch the whole movie??? This is one of my favorite movies ever! 😩😩😩

This guy is who John Sandford used to be. Check him out 😂

Thank you very much for this brief video on the main subject of this book! Very helpful.

Thanks

No comments.... sure.

Thank you.

She must have been renamed Mary for the American publication. In the UK, she's called Veronica.

Conspiracy theory=truth

This is when I would like to see the dislikes! I am sure their are many!

Thanks!

One of my favourite novels. You are not describing it though.

Much Obliged! Had this book since 05,never got past 25 pages. This gave me the Go to finish it!!

Loved his books in high school

So... I feel like I just went through a sometimes place to the other side to an alternate dimension where the book 'the haunted mesa' that I read is NOT the same as the one described here. Like. What?

Perhaps it’s easier to read Chinese than to read few pages of this book. Not much makes sense.

great

The afterword in my copy made it pretty clear that Reitman made the character up.

Me lo recomendado una persona que admiro mucho por sus logros y sus valores.

This is not the plot of ‘My Son, My Son’ by Howard Spring. Who on earth are Arthur and David? The main protagonists in the novel are William and Oliver Essex 🤷‍♀️

I really want to read this book. It’s the book in Gordon Freeman’s locker in half life 1. I really believe Marc is a prophetic writer. He is a genius and should be considered one of the greatest writers of our time.

Thanks!

Any books similar to this one you know? I enjoyed this book a lot.

I’m a little way into this book now and, I’ll be honest, I can’t make head nor tail of what he’s going on about? Perhaps it’s just me?

Merci pour ce beau résumé sur cette œuvre et son auteur 👍🙏🏼❤🇫🇷

I love this video ❤

This is an accurate quote from the video, “On the other hand, Harriet, born to Jefferson and Sally Hemings, was enslaved and identified as Black.” Who identified Harriet as “Black?” The video indicates that Harriet was 'Black' because Kerrison's book cover indicates that at least one of Jefferson's daughters was 'Black.' Catherine Kerrison identified her as Black. The video does not question Kerrison on that point. The video presents Kerrison as an authority on the matter. The important question becomes, was Harriet identified as Black during her lifetime and if so by whom? The only historical description of Harriet, where she was identified by name, came from Isaac, a man who was born in slavery at Monticello. Isaac said, “Harriet, one of Sally’s daughters was very handsome.” (Bear, J at M, 4) The only other description of her came from an overseer, Edmund Bacon. He said, “He [Jefferson] freed one girl some years before he died, and there was a great deal of talk about it…She was as white as anybody and very beautiful… She never did any hard work.” (Bear, J at M, 102). Harriet was listed in Jefferson’s Farm Book. After the Revolutionary War, Jefferson did not refer to his slaves as slaves or as black. He commonly referred to them as servants. The reasoning behind this is tangential. Thus, Jefferson wrote her name, but never referred to her as a slave or black as she was born over a decade after the Revolutionary War ended. Harriet was an octaroon, a person who had one black great grandparent and seven white great grandparents. In his letter to Francis Gray, Jefferson argued that octaroons were not black, but white. Virginia law at the time deemed octaroons to be white. Thomas Jefferson made the effort to make that very point. (Woodson, A President in the Family, 70-1) And so, this is the point, Harriet was not “identified as Black,” during her lifetime. Not. Full stop. The skin color of Jefferson’s three daughters is displayed on the cover of Kerrison’s book. The complexion of one of the daughters (the one more modestly dressed) is presented on the book cover so as to approximate the color of the black American singer Toni Braxton. (Catherine Kerrison, Jefferson's Daughters, Three Sisters, White and Black, in a Young America), 2018, cover). The complexion is light brown. Yet Isaac said that Betty Hemings, Harriet's maternal grandmother, was, “a bright mulatto woman.” Thus, Betty had the complexion of Prince Harry’s daughter or possibly his wife. (Prince Harry, Duke of Sussex). It would have been impossible for either Sally or Harriet to have the same complexion as the beautiful and sultry Toni Braxton, since all of the male contributors to this saga were white. The book cover, the title, and consequential parts of the narrative of Kerrison’s book are misleading and revisionist. Kerrison did not present history she presented taboo. She presented distortions of reality. The reality was aptly described over two hundred years ago by Isaac and Thomas Jefferson and others. No member of the American Academy has every handled this history in an honest and careful manner, except for Fawn Brodie and W. Edward Farrison. Catherine Kerrison is certainly not alone, as many aspects of Monticello’s history have been distorted and despicable patterns remain in play. Two of Jefferson’s French friends visited Monticello separately; both were struck by the sight of white slaves and wrote about that. Comte de Volney wrote about seeing slave children, “as white as I am.” Fawn Brodie and Byron Woodson acknowledged those accounts in their books. (Brodie, Thomas Jefferson, 287) The accounting did not appear in rebuttals, like Virginius Daney’s The Jefferson Scandals nor does it appear in the Pulitzer Prize winning The Hemingses of Monticello. Those books are attempted rebuttals, designed to bury history. Dabney's book attempted to rebut Brodie’s and Annette Gordon-Reed’s slyly attempted to rebut the movie titled Sally Hemings and Woodson’s book. Dabney made his intention very clear, but Gordon-Reed’s book is pure snake oil. Gordon-Reed’s accounts are more careless than any other account pertaining to these matters. She misquoted Isaac on the matter of Sally Hemings’ appearance. She wrote, “This suggests that Sally Hemings was a light-skinned, very obviously black woman- someone whose racial makeup could be immediately discerned upon looking at her - a “bright mulatto,” just as Isaac Jefferson described her.” (Gordon-Reed, H of M, 271, end of 2nd paragraph) The problem is that Isaac never described Sally Hemings as a bright mulatto. (Bear, J at M, 3-24) Kerrison and Gordon-Reed contradicted the message that Jefferson wrote into his letter to Francis Gray. Jefferson understood and explained miscegenation, while professional historians do not understand it, as it is not part of their experience, like it was a part of Jefferson's life experience. Gordon-Reed misquoted Isaac. That falsification is part of a pattern that has propped up the misunderstanding of Monticello history for over 100 years. The pattern goes undetected because it is institutionalized. This particular malfeasance was supported by the Virginia Foundation for the Humanities, the University of Virginia (UVA), the Thomas Jefferson Foundation, the Pulitzer Prize Board, and several other institutions, whose standards are misguided. Gordon-Reed contradicted Thomas Jefferson, James Callender, Thomas Gibbons and Isaac, who were all born in the eighteenth century. She wrote, "Madison Hemings's recollections.... are the Rosetta Stone of this story." (SH and TJ, 239) The problem is that Madison was born in the nineteenth century in 1805 and was not yet born when the some of the events he "recollected" occurred. A person has to be alive to be a witness. That is just common sense. Gordon-Reed built a flawed 'history' around Madison's 'recollections.' Dumas Malone, Gordon-Reed and Catherine Kerrison were born in the South. Southerners engage in Southern taboos, misquoting the 200-year-old historic record, burying history and perpetrating a history not by way of recovery, but by the way of intellectual authoritarianism (where authority trumps evidence). This is aided by Southern institutions like the UVA and the Thomas Jefferson Foundation (Gordon-Reed was a board member) and in turn aided by the naivete of foundations like Ford and Mellon, funders of the malpractice. Pearl M. Graham regenerated the Jefferson/Hemings controversy with her article, published in 1961, titled Thomas Jefferson and Sally Hemings. Prior to 1961, the controversy was dormant for 85 years. Graham and Brodie were white women not born in the South. The efficacy of Graham's and Brodie's scholarship is carried forward by the descendants of Sally Hemings and institutions like NBC News, CBS (presented the movie, titled Sally Hemings), the Washington Post, and the now defunct magazine, Ebony. Brodie's book sold 350,000 copies in its first year; the producer of the Sally Hemings movie (year 2000) bought the rights to Brodie's book and used the research as a basis for the movie plot. A divided history underwrites a divided American culture. Malone graduated from Yale and taught at UVA after leaving Mississippi, Texas-born Gordon-Reed graduated from Harvard. Kerrison graduated from William and Mary (Virginia). Of education Mark Twain wrote, "I have never let my schooling interfere with my education." Of learning Lord Byron wrote, "With just enough learning to misquote." Brodie was excommunicated from the Morman church (as per her first book) and castigated by Malone and Gordon-Reed for telling inconvenient truths. Brodie recovered inconvenient truths, so unlike Gordon-Reed and Malone she did not win a Pulitzer Prize, yet her books, four decades after her death continue to sell in large quantities, while she inspired a novel that sold over a million copies and a movie that CBS broadcast into 20 million homes. Sally Hemings was the half-sister of Jefferson's only wife (who died when Sally was 9 yrs. old). Thus, Harriet was not only Jefferson's child but related to Jefferson's wife by bloodline. Three of Harriet's grandparents were also the grandparents of Martha and Maria Jefferson', Thomas Jefferson's daughters, by way of his wife. According to the 1860 U.S. census, the population of slave holders was roughly 400,000 and the population of mulattos was roughly 400,000. "Scholars' like Gordon-Reed and Kerrison are undaunted by the picture that the U.S. census presents and unphased by the words of Isaac and the writings of Thomas Jefferson. They are able to overwhelm the facts and overwhelm Jefferson and Isaac because Jefferson and Isaac are dead. They created written 'history' and a book cover that changed the skin color of Sally and Harriet Hemings, because the reality is inconvenient vis a vis the delusions they hold up as reality. This writer loves NBC more than he loves America. Jefferson wrote that given a choice between government and newspapers he would choose newspapers. -- This is a choice between quote and misquote, between first-hand accounts and revisions of the historic record, between Southern American taboo and honesty. And it is a choice between 1) the division of families that share the same bloodline and look alike by way of unseeable ancestral distinctions and 2) rejections of a social structure that stretches integrity beyond its limits to create disharmony and inequity. The truth is that white Americans are, "...as white as anybody...," but taboo prevents that discussion.

"Woodhouse" not "wodehouse".

Thanks just took the award reference for illustration of demo clips not action figures motionless (🫳🏾 didn’t touch you or submitted to the itouch emoji of emo artist). I enjoyed Switzerland design of Pyres within Master Bernard view point (he referred to say Tio Benediction for bene deer).

I read this book when i was a young boy in 1979, only11 years old. I have to read it again because i forgot most of it. Thanks for the upload

I was hoping it was the book. :-(

Great description ❤ Definitely would like to read it.👍 Thank you 😊

thank you so much! I am reading currently listen little man so good! Good to read for current situation! People don't learn!

Very helpful thank you

Organism was the first "ism" in da world 🚬🗿✌️

Theres billions of Truths but only one reality

Res Extensa, may not be objective reality. Res Cogitans, may ally closely with Ryle's critique. Compare with "the heart has reasons which the intellect knows not" of Blaise Pascal.

This is nonsense. Vasili Andreevich is a character in Tolstoy's Master and Man and Lidia's appear in The Artist by Chekhov and Anna Karenina by Tolstoy but definitely not in the Shooting Party. Also, the Shooting Party is about a murder, which you'd think might be worth mentioning. This sounds like an AI hallucination. The Shooting Party is a good book and I'd recommend reading it. If that helps.

Álfgrímur is pronounced Owlf -gree -mur.
