I thought you might be interested to know that I've just published a book called The Roman Revolution. This is about the Roman Empire in the third century when Rome was truly revolutionized and ended up as a Christian monarchy. This was the origin of the Byzantine Empire, and so if you're interested in the Crusades, you might well enjoy this much earlier time in history which was so formative for both Byzantium and the Crusades. Here is the link to the book on Amazon US.One click and you're there! Hope you enjoy it!
Please take a look at my website nickholmesauthor.com where you can download a free copy of The Byzantine World War, my book that describes the origins of the First Crusade.

Prior to the modern era, very few people traveled anywhere. It was rare for anyone to travel more than about 20 miles from where they were born.
However, there were a few people who managed to travel quite extensively. In particular, there was one man in the 14th century who might have traveled more than any other person up to that point in history. In fact, he was better traveled than even more people alive today.

The economy seems to be a top concern for most Americans. In a recent poll of registered voters from the New York Times and Siena College, asking what the most important problem facing the nation is, the economy and the rising cost of living topped the list.
Just this week, analysts said inflation reached a new four-decade high and the stock market continues to be unstable. What should we do about all this uncertainty? What does it mean for our money?
We’re joined today by Nicole Lapin. She’s a financial journalist, tv news anchor, author, and the host of the popular podcast “Money Rehab with Nicole Lapin.” We get started with why she thinks we’re already in a recession and why this is actually a time when “great fortunes” can be made.
Dahlia Lithwick is joined by former Attorney General Eric Holder as Amicus begins its summer season while the Supreme Court is in recess. General Holder describes his feelings when, as President Barack Obama’s Attorney General, he realized he could not in good conscience take part in the long-held tradition of the AG arguing an “easy case” before the Supreme Court. The issue? That same court had just eviscerated the Voting Rights Act in a case that will forever bear his name: Shelby County v Holder. General Holder wants us to take the steps beyond anger at the assault on voting rights, and move forward with joy toward action. His book, Our Unfinished March, is both a history of how voting rights became broken, and an action plan for delivering the promise of democracy: that the people pick their leaders.
In his State of the Nation address in early June 2022, Uganda?s President Yoweri Museveni said that Uganda was on the cusp of becoming a middle income country.

Featuring Rachel Sebudde, Senior Economist at the World Bank.
