“A gripping and forceful narrative.”—Nancy F. Cott, author of Public Vows An “enthralling” (Michael Kazin, Washington Post) account of America’s shift from a rural and agrarian society to an urban and industrial society. In the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries, technological innovation made possible dramatic increases in industrial and agricultural productivity; by 1919, per capita gross national product had soared. But this new wealth and new power were not distributed evenly. In this landmark work—with continued resonance for our times—acclaimed historian Nell Irvin Painter illuminates the class, economic, and political conflicts that defined the Progressive Era. Demonstrating the ways in which racial and social hierarchies were interwoven with reform movements, she offers a lively and comprehensive view of Americans, rich and working-class, at the precipice of change.

New York Times Bestseller AT STAKE: THE FUTURE OF AMERICA The 2016 election is truly America's Armageddon—the ultimate and decisive battle to save America, a fight to defeat Hillary Clinton and the forces seeking to flout our constitutional government and replace it with an all-powerful president backed up by an activist judiciary that answers to no one. Already President Obama has moved America far down this path, and a President Clinton will act as his "third term," institutionalizing the excesses of the past eight years. In Armageddon, bestselling author and political strategist Dick Morris provides a winning game plan to take back the White House, and America. Because this is our last chance: • Our last chance to stop socialist uniformity, corruption and executive usurpation • Our last chance to curb welfare programs that are destroying the economic and social fabric of the nation • Our last chance to secure our border and keep our sovereignty • Our last chance to stand up against ISIS and terrorism • Our last chance to protect the Second Amendment We can do it. We must. It's our last chance. Read Armageddon, or risk losing the battle to save America! On Tuesday, November 8, 2016, American voters will make a momentous decision. They will decide whether or not this great country will remain a free market, constitutional democracy. The stakes could not be higher. If Hillary Clinton is elected president, it will mean the end of the America we know and love. Armageddon, by New York Times bestselling authors Dick Morris and Eileen McGann, is a call to arms, a call to join that ultimate battle. Few know Hillary Clinton better than Dick Morris. For almost two decades he served as a special adviser to both her and her husband, Bill Clinton. He knows their strengths, their vulnerabilities, and even their deepest secrets. In Armageddon, Morris offers a manual on how to win this battle and defeat Hillary once and for all. He argues that a typical Republican campaign won’t work—and that Hillary’s opponent must strike her in a very unorthodox and powerful way. Morris says it’s a winning strategy and voters play a critical role. A noted political strategist, Dick Morris has created winning strategies for numerous presidential campaigns in the U.S. and abroad. In this book he lays out a war plan, one the Republican nominee must use to prevent her victory: • Throw a surprising right jab: terrorism and healthcare • Throw the left hook: jobs, immigration, Wall Street • Play her game on class warfare: women, Latinos, and young voters Republicans need to stop playing by the old rules of the game. Those rules don’t work—they elected Barack Obama twice. Obama has changed America in fundamental ways and Morris posits that Hillary’s opponents need to grasp this and implement a strategy that can finally defeat her.

Half-devil and miles from anything resembling heroic, perpetual underdog Frank "Triggaltheron" Trigg is the last man standing against Armageddon. As the favorite nephew of the Devil, Frank has led a troubled life, but he'd always had his uncle's influence to fall back on. Now, with God and Lucifer coming to terms and leaving existence to fend for itself, his once exalted status of Anti-Christ-to-be does little to endear him to the hordes of angels and demons running amok in the Godless world. With help from the members of DRAC, an organization of wizards, psychics, telepaths, and low-end supernatural beings, Frank must thwart the pro-Armegeddon forces and rescue an angel in whose life rests the fate of humanity. Better luck next time, humanity.

The Eagle flies high Over Armageddon Everything you have heard about God abandoning America and letting it perish long before Christ's return in the End-Times is wrong! Instead, newly accurate translations of Revelations portray America as soaring like an Eagle over the end-times, an ally and deliverer of Israel, and leader of a "Holy Alliance" of Godly nations against the Antichrist. As interpreted by two seasoned scientists and experts in Intelligence, an astonishing new picture of America in the end-times has now emerged from modern translations of the scriptures. Instead of casting away America in the end-times because of its faults, God will instead hear the prayers and repentance of its people. He will remember America's great blessings and help to the Children of Israel and give blessings rather than condemnation. Clearly, as documented by scriptures in the Bible, America will fulfill its God-given destiny, through Armageddon and beyond, as God's superpower on Earth. America will therefore not perish but will be the deliverer of Israel's people. America, as the Eagle of Revelations, standing by God's Throne and helped by the Lion of Great Britain, is now understood to be the nation warning the world of God's wrath from the 'middle of heaven' in Revelations. America is the Eagle whose 'mighty wings' rescue Israel out of the flood from the Dragon's mouth moving from Asia and bears her away to a place of safety. America is the powerful "King of the North" of Daniel, who, at the time of the end, leads a Holy Alliance that wages war upon the Antichrist; America attacking the Antichrist by sea, land, and air "like a Whirlwind." This is America, now seen in the Bible, as we have always known her through history. As in the words of Abraham Lincoln: "The Last Great Hope on Earth" This is the America that Theodore Roosevelt spoke of when he said: "We stand at Armageddon and Battle for the Lord." So, as is shown clearly by the scriptures in this book, unlike works of previous writers on this subject, that America will enjoy the blessing and help of God even through Armageddon and beyond. However, the end-times will be a period of great trials and tribulations for Americans, as possibly seen in the vision of George Washington at Valley Forge, perhaps even a period of terrible civil war, involving large numbers of foreign mercenaries, who will make a failed attempt to conquer America and bring it under control of the Anti-Christ. But as seen clearly, at the 'time of the end' America will triumph as Christ makes His triumphal return. This book depicts the geopolitical struggle of Godly and ungodly forces entwined in the Middle East through the ages, ending with the prophecy of the massive Chinese Army of 200 million men, the 'flood from the Dragon's mouth, ' marching down the Silk Road to attempt to destroy Israel. Also discussed is the great persecution of Christians through its historic foreshadowing: the martyrdom of the horrendous Armenian Genocide, one of ten horrendous such genocides in modern times, mostly driven by religious differences. America needs to pray, be strong, steadfast, and trust the God of Israel who remains at your side always. J.E. Brandenburg Ph.D. is a theoretical physicist and author who has dedicated his career to the Defense of the United States. An Episcopalian who was saved in his youth, Dr. Brandenburg has written research on a wide variety of subjects, from space exploration, finding the Higgs-Boson or 'God' particle, finding residues on the Martian surface due to historical nuclear explosions, and field unification to impact gravity. P.A. Murad was an officer in the 82nd Airborne, served in the aerospace industry for 18 years and the Defense Intelligence Agency for 25 years as a sworn defender of America. He attends the Armenian Apostolic church and published research on space propulsion, nuclear power, alternative gravity laws, and relativity.
