Fatal Rivalry: Part Three of The Last Great Saxon Earls
Description
<p>In 1066, the rivalry between two brothers brought England to its knees. When Duke William of Normandy landed at Pevensey on September 28, 1066, no one was there to resist him. King Harold Godwineson was in the north, fighting his brother Tostig and a fierce Viking invasion. How could this have happened? Why would Tostig turn traitor to wreak revenge on his brother?<br />The Sons of Godwine were not always enemies. It took a massive Northumbrian uprising to tear them apart, making Tostig an exile and Harold his sworn enemy. And when 1066 came to an end, all the Godwinesons were dead except one: Wulfnoth, hostage in Normandy. For two generations, Godwine and his sons were a mighty force, but their power faded away as the Anglo-Saxon era came to a close.</p>
Story Behind The Book
The story beind my book is the story of everyday life. For so long I have felt we could live much happier, freer, more secure and more rewarding lives. I firmly believe that we can create a version of heaven on earth in our daily lives. However in our current society that is just not possible. The more we outsource our lives, then the more we will be exploited and abused by those in power. We are now working harder, commuting longer hours, paying more taxes, seeing less financial returns and security than ever before. This is because a malaise has set in with institutional society; be they governments, banks, public authorities or religions, they have decided the individual is not worth caring about anymore. The more we give these people power, then the more we will be abused and the worse our problems will become. That is the depressing bit.
The highly positive alternative is that all this can change, and change quickly. If we start today to gain self empowerment in our daily lives we are improving our siutations. If we then align into healthy community within our localities we are amplifying that power. No longer will we accept any ruling/directive form the top down. We will instigate and fix problems at a local level. We will do this efficiently. We will gain security over our futures and security of resources. We will be able to face our future lives knowing that we can meet our needs. This is heaven on earth, knowing for sure that one is safe, protected and looked after for their stay on this nurturing planet. My book tells us how to achieve this.
Reviews
While Building Cities of Gold is quite an entertaining read, it is so
much more than that. The author Barry Fitzgerald has written a how-to
book that can help readers enrich their lives, make them happier
people, as well as more comfortable and self-confident in their social
dealings with others. This is a must read! I highly recommend you buy
your copy today!<br />Salvatore Buttaci, author of Flashing My Shorts
