David Lloyd George Great Britain

David Lloyd George (1863-1945). The end of the First World War saw Britain at the height of its power. Its fleet and air force were the largest in the world. Its armies had triumphed in the Middle East and spearheaded the final attacks in Western Europe that had driven the defeated Germans to seek an armistice. Britain now had to translate this military victory into the achievement of its war aims and future security and prosperity. Its main negotiator at the forthcoming peace conference would be its prime minister, the ebullient and enigmatic David Lloyd George, the "Welsh Wizard" and "the man who had won the war." Lloyd George’s energy had maintained the war effort through the dark days of 1917 and early 1918, but now he anticipated, with relish, the prospect of winning the peace. Few were better equipped. He was a skilled and accomplished negotiator with the knack of reconciling the apparently irreconcilable. His admirers, of whom there were many, pointed to his brilliant and agile mind, his rapid grasp of complex questions and his powers of persuasion. His critics, who were also numerous, distrusted his sleight of hand, fleetness of foot and, frankly, his word. His six months in Paris in 1919, as he pitted his wits against formidable world leaders like Woodrow Wilson and Georges Clemenceau, were among the most enjoyable but exhausting of his life. This study investigates the extent to which Lloyd George succeeded in his aims and evaluates the immediate and longer-term results of his negotiations for Britain.

Antipodean George Eliot


Free Download Margaret Harris, "Antipodean George Eliot"
English | 2022 | ISBN: 1032267143, 1032424516 | PDF | pages: 231 | 14.8 mb
In Middlemarch, George Eliot famously warns readers not to see themselves as the centre of their own world, which produces a ‘flattering illusion of concentric arrangement’. The scholarly contributors to Antipodean George Eliot resist this form of centrism. Hailing from four continents and six countries, they consider Eliot from a variety of de-centred vantage points, exploring how the obscure and marginal in Eliot’s life and work sheds surprising light on the central and familiar. With essays that span the full range of Eliot’s career―from her early journalism, to her major novels, to eccentric late works such as Impressions of Theophrastus Such―Antipodean George Eliot is committed to challenging orthodoxies about Eliot’s development as a writer, overturning received ideas about her moral and political thought, and unveiling new contexts for appreciating her unparalleled significance in nineteenth-century letters.

An American Crisis George Washington and the Dangerous Two Years After Yorktown, 1781-1783


Free Download William M. Fowler Jr., "An American Crisis: George Washington and the Dangerous Two Years After Yorktown, 1781-1783"
English | ISBN: 0802717063 | 2011 | 352 pages | AZW3 | 977 KB
Most people believe the American Revolution ended in October, 1781, after the battle of Yorktown; in fact the war continued for two more traumatic years. During that time, the Revolution came closer to being lost than at any time in the previous half dozen. The British still held New York, Savannah, Wilmington, and Charleston; the Royal Navy controlled the seas; the states-despite having signed the Articles of Confederation earlier that year-retained their individual sovereignty and, largely bankrupt themselves, refused to send any money in the new nation’s interest; members of Congress were in constant disagreement; and the Continental army was on the verge of mutiny.

Sir George Trevelyan, Residential Adult Education and the New Age ‘To Open the Immortal Eye’


Free Download Sharon Clancy, "Sir George Trevelyan, Residential Adult Education and the New Age: ‘To Open the Immortal Eye’ "
English | ISBN: 3031359542 | 2023 | 293 pages | PDF | 5 MB
This book examines the development of British post-Second World War short-term residential adult education, through the lens of the Shropshire Adult Education College (1948-1976) and the tenure of Sir George Trevelyan as its first warden. Trevelyan is acknowledged as the godfather of new-age spiritualism in the UK and is credited with the development of eclectic and esoteric learning opportunities in arts, traditional crafts, culture and ecology. Embodying the spirit of a new national drive for optimism and enterprise in the post-war period, Trevelyan, and his contemporaries at other colleges, took risks and innovated in new pedagogical approaches to adult education, capturing the imagination of hundreds of students, before being stifled by an increasingly restrictive policy framework and financial strictures. The book considers the ideological drivers and tensions behind this unique form of education – its inception, evolution and virtual demise – and seeks to learn from its complex history to inform education in the future.

George Ten – CopyThinking Community + The Copy Matrix Download 2024


Free Download George Ten – CopyThinking Community + The Copy Matrix 2024 Download File Links
The Copy Matrix is a video course that you can finish in a single weekend. You’ll also get a working-PDF with all the same information that’s in the videos.
Here’s a glimpse of what’s inside.

• Why awareness levels are the key to making any copy work (this is how you scale businesses)
[ b]• How to decide on an awareness level to target and what to write in order to get the sale (get this wrong and you’re toast)[/b]
• The sneaky way to get more sales for a new business by NOT competing (you can do this once you fully understand awareness levels and how to pick them) • Each market has one awareness level. Right? Wrong! You can pick the awareness level you’d be targeting. And there is a specific equation to know which one to pick (get this and you’re already light years ahead)
• The silly mistake 90% of advertisers make that THEY THINK will get them more money (but actually makes their ads flop).
Let’s stop here for a second. Do you understand that this one skill will allow you to scroll through Instagram. And understand exactly what the advertisers are doing wrong. But also. Have full clarity of how to fix what they’re doing wrong AND/or scale their business. Yeah. You’ll also:
• Understand once and for all why it’s a bad idea to use templates and formulas to write copy (unless you want it to suck)
• Know what to write at each awareness level in order to convert buyers. This also works for cold DMs and cold emails (Yeah. Most cold emails are done WRONG)

• See REAL ads that are running RIGHT NOW where I’ll tell you exactly which awareness levels each ad targets so you can learn the UP-TO-DATE techniques • If you watch module #3 you’ll see how to connect the ad’s (or any type of content’s) awareness level to the sales page’s awareness level correctly
• In the same module you’ll also understand how different-awareness ads can lead to the same sales page (scaling with ONE sales page)
• Learn the most important element in “snatching” your competitor’s prospects – by targeting high-awareness people who and are ready to buy (with an example from Twitter)
You could mistake this information to be the same as in the book Breakthrough Advertising by Eugene Schwartz. But it’s NOT. Eugene wrote the book when there were no elaborate funnels. No intent-based targeting. Only one-page magazine ads. CONTEXT matters. And you won’t get it reading the book. Here’s what else you’ll learn in the Copy Matrix:
• Understand the 5 sophistication levels of any market (and why we will never write copy in the first two and the last one).
• A better-than-forum-doom-scrolling technique to determine your market’s sophistication level simply by looking at 3-5 competitors
• Are you confused about the difference between awareness and sophistication levels? No more after watching module #5
• Why you can NOT choose your market’s sophistication level (unlike awareness levels) and how you’ll get a few sales but will never be able to scale if you do
• 99% of the marketers who THINK they understand sophistication levels – actually don’t (Module #6 will put you in the 1%)
The truth about why most OG copywriters (THINK David Oglivy & Gary Halbert) wrote ads in high sophistication levels – and why you are making a HUGE mistake if you try to model them. But that’s not all. You’re also getting 3 uber-cool bonuses:

Moral Vision Leadership from George Washington to Joe Biden [Audiobook]


Free Download Moral Vision: Leadership from George Washington to Joe Biden
English | ASIN: B0CTVMQYM6 | 2024 | 14 hours and 38 minutes | M4B@64 kbps | 426 MB
Author: Marvin Olasky
Narrator: Tim H. Dixon

What makes a leader truly great? Is it simply a matter of management style and personality? Or is it character that matters most? Moral Visions takes an insightful look into America’s leaders of the past to answer these questions and demonstrates that values and moral convictions are critical to the strength of a nation. Supposedly, we learn about the candidates for the highest office through a series of tests called "debates," which are instead an exchange of soundbites. We can’t know whether an aspirant to the presidency has the ability to ask good questions or only a suave or belligerent ability to answer them. Moral Vision is a human-interest introduction to American history through studies of nineteen leaders: presidents, almost presidents, a tycoon, a crusading journalist, and even a leading 19th century abortionist. Its lessons can help voters sort through the candidates in 2024 and beyond by measuring them against previous leaders-none of whom was faultless.
