***Finalist for the Gilder Lehrman Lincoln Prize*** Henry Louis Gates, Jr: "A stunning tale of a little-known figure in history." Candice Millard: “Be Free or Die makes you want to stand up and cheer.” The astonishing true story of Robert Smalls’ amazing journey from slave to Union hero and ultimately United States Congressman. It was a mild May morning in Charleston, South Carolina, in 1862, the second year of the Civil War, when a twenty-three-year-old slave named Robert Smalls did the unthinkable and boldly seized a Confederate steamer. With his wife and two young children hidden on board, Smalls and a small crew ran a gauntlet of heavily armed fortifications in Charleston Harbor and delivered the valuable vessel and the massive guns it carried to nearby Union forces. To be unsuccessful was a death sentence for all. Smalls’ courageous and ingenious act freed him and his family from slavery and immediately made him a Union hero while simultaneously challenging much of the country’s view of what African Americans were willing to do to gain their freedom. After his escape, Smalls served in numerous naval campaigns off Charleston as a civilian boat pilot and eventually became the first black captain of an Army ship. In a particularly poignant moment Smalls even bought the home that he and his mother had once served in as house slaves. Cate Lineberry's Be Free or Die is a compelling narrative that illuminates Robert Smalls’ amazing journey from slave to Union hero and ultimately United States Congressman. This captivating tale of a valuable figure in American history gives fascinating insight into the country's first efforts to help newly freed slaves while also illustrating the many struggles and achievements of African Americans during the Civil War.

Kazimierz Michal Władysław Wiktor Pulaski of Slepowron (English: Casimir Pulaski) (1745-1779), was a Polish nobleman, soldier and military commander who together with his counterpart Michael Kovats de Fabriczy has been hailed as “the father of the American cavalry”. Pulaski is remembered as a hero who fought for independence and freedom in both Poland and the United States. Numerous places and events are named in his honor, and he is commemorated by many works of art. Pulaski is one of only eight people to be awarded honorary United States citizenship. Born in Warsaw in 1745, he followed in his father’s footsteps and joined the military and the revolutionary affairs in Poland (the Polish-Lithuanian Commonwealth). Pulaski was one of the leading military commanders for the Bar Confederation and fought against Russian domination of the Commonwealth. When this uprising failed, he was driven into exile. Following a recommendation by Benjamin Franklin, Pulaski travelled to North America to help in the cause of the American Revolutionary War. He distinguished himself throughout the revolution, most notably when he saved the life of George Washington. Pulaski became a general in the Continental Army, created the Pulaski Cavalry Legion and reformed the American cavalry as a whole. At the Battle of Savannah, while leading a daring charge against British forces, he was gravely wounded, and died shortly thereafter on October 11, 1779. In this fascinating biography about Casimir Pulaski, Dorothy Adams brings to life the story of someone with unquenched ideals, who, like herself, bridged the double patriotisms of Poland and America.

You are a conscious intelligent living being, yet you are more than an individual being, since you are an entire living compound made of distinct living beings, all forming you, all contributing to your unique life and existence. Because you are your trillions of living cells, composing your body one after another. And with each cell, you are a zillion subcellular components forming you one molecule at a time and one cell near another, designing or creating your life one fulfilment at a time and one moment of existence after another, animating you from within in this manner, from the smallest subcellular level. Since this is who you are only at the physical, objective level, while all living beings generate, sustain, and coordinate continuously a multitude of intelligent modulations throughout the physical brain and entire body, forming your entire cognition, living intelligent impulses associated to your mind, consciousness, awareness, and intelligence. From the physical perspective of your body, these are simple encoded impulses within your neurons and therefore within your entire mind, and everybody has them, capable to sustain entire inner cognitive instances forming together your cognitive system, your entire mind, in all its thoughts, awareness, feelings, and reactions. But then, from an inner, cognitive perspective, all these physical impulses become alive, making everything possible throughout your mind, organism, life, and entire world, in a living intelligent manner, since these are your intelligences. All your intelligences are aware, conscious, and certainly intelligent, and through their own consciousness and intelligence, they give you your entire mind in all its cognitive abilities, becoming everything that you truly are. More precisely, your intelligences form your mind altogether, since the human mind is their living world, while your intelligences perform the entire cognitive activity within, just for you and for the entire organism. And now, their continuous existence is your life, while their purpose becomes your meaning, achievement, learning, and subsistence. Since among all your intelligences, you are the conscious intelligence yourself, specialized in the coordination of the entire organism in the outside world while fulfilling its needs, or while fulfilling your needs, since it is the same. Because your intelligences have their own specialized tasks and needs, together forming not only your mind, but your entire life, in its entire existence. Yet these are only your own intelligences, the human intelligences, while throughout this book, we focus on all intelligences of the wider world, including these. This book studies all intelligences, from living, cognitive, interconnective, and existential perspectives, throughout a comprehensive classification of everything alive and intelligent, helping you understand yourself, life, intelligence, consciousness, the world, and your conscious place, meaning, and fulfillment in life and in the world.
