Includes LIst of Firefighters Who Gave their Lives on September 11, 2001 and Acknowledgments. An "Autographed Copy" sticker is neatly affixed to the center right section of the jacket front. Signed by the co-author, FDNY Battalion Commander Richard Picciotto, with a thin olive green Sharpie at the lower section of the full title page. "People call us heroes, but we're just doing our jobs." - FDNY Battalion Commander Richard Picciotto. "On the morning of September 11, 2001, FDNY Battalion Commander Richard Picciotto was at his firehouse on West 100th Street when a Boeing 767, laden with jet fuel, was deliberately flown into the North Tower of the World Trade Center. It was 8:48 A.M. "Pitch" didn't even wait to be formally dispatched to the scene. By the time the second plane attacked the South Tower eighteen minutes later, he was careening down the streets of Manhattan to the area that would soon be known as "Ground Zero" - and into the middle of one of the darkest moments in American History. Picciotto knew the inside of the North Tower like he knew his own home. He had played a central role in its evacuation during the 1993 bombing. Now, he was about to relive that terror hundredfold. Leading his men into the smoking building, he got to work managing the rescue effort, checking floors and rerouting civilians without thought for his own safety. After the South Tower collapsed, Picciotto ordered an evacuation of fire and rescue workers that saved hundreds of lives. Then, Picciotto and a die-hard team of men set about rescuing a group of about fifty disabled and infirm people - until the North Tower collapsed around them, trapping them in the rubble for more than four hours. This is the harrowing account of that ordeal, told with raw emotion by the man who lived through it - and emerged a true American hero. It is also the remarkable story of one fire department's dauntless battle at the epicenter of terror and one city's epic and inspirational recovery - and a testimony to the thousands of men and women lost in the fragments of the Twin Towers." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. ABOUT THE AUTHOR (from the rear jacket flap, dated May 2002) FDNY Battalion Commander Richard Picciotto was the highest-raniing firefighter to survive the collapse of the World Trade Center. He is a twenty-eight year veteran of the New York City Fire Department. For the past nine years, he has presided over FDNY's Battalion 11, covering Manhattan's Upper West Side. In 1993, as a battalion commander assigned to Lower Manhattan, he was the second chief on the scene immediately following the first attack on the World Trade Center, coordinating operations and rescue efforts in the NOrth Tower. It was there, under those frontline circumstances, that Picciotto became keenly familiar with the building's layout, and the...

[First Edition] What Is a Woman?: One Man's Journey to Answer the Question of a Generation [VINTAGE 2022] [FIRST EDITION] Walsh, Matt [Used - As new] 77.18 CAD As new condition black boards with silver spine lettering contained in a fine condition non price-clipped color illustrated dust jacket. Includes Epilogue and Endnotes. "For the past eight months, I have devoted nearly all of my waking hours to seeing who can answer this simple question. I sought out experts in every field in the gender theory world - doctors, therapists, psychiatrists, psychologists, politicians, activists, and transgender people themselves - and I put the question to them directly. For the sake of inquiry, I was willing to take exactly what they said at face value. I wanted their answers to speak for themselves. I wasn't trying to embarrass, entrap, or lead on any of these people. If something they said didn't make sense right away, I presumed it was because I didn't understand. But as time went on and as the interview hours ticked up, I began to realize that the problem wasn't my understanding. Nothing they said made any sense. Their arguments collapsed, not with hammer blows or a hard push, but with soft questions, because the core of gender ideology is hollow. But I don't want you to take my word for it. You should hear it from the experts themselves. Are you still wondering, "What is a woman?" Read on, and I'll let the best and the brightest answer the question themselves." - from the rear outer jacket. "Is this even a question? What is a woman? For months, Matt Walsh devoted nearly every waking hour to finding the answer to this simple question. It's a question he never thought he'd have to ask. But all of a sudden, way too many people don't seem to know the answer. Is a woman a woman just by feeling or acting a particular way? Aren't gender roles just a "social construct"? Can a woman be "trapped in a man's body"? Does being a woman mean anything at all? We used to think being a woman had something to do with biology, but the nation's top experts keep assuring us that is definitely not the case. So Matt decided to do what no man (whatever that means) had done before. He sat down with the experts and asked them directly. In What is a Woman?, our hero: * Discovers that no one - not doctors, therapists, psychiatrists, or politicians - can actually define the word "woman"; * Hilariously convices a radical gender therapist that Matt is questioning his own gender identity; * Uncovers the shocking and horrifying roots of radical gender ideology; * Learns exactly how activists and ideologues are trying to brainwash our kids; * Reveals a strategy to defeat the collective insanity that has taken over our society. Join Matt on his often comical, yet deeply disturbing, journey as he answers the question generations before us never knew they needed to ask: What is a woman?" - from the inner front jacket flap.

[Signed] [First Edition] The People's Pottage / Foreword / The Revolution Was / Ex America / Rise of Empire (SIGNED, in BOTH dust jackets) Garrett,

[Signed] [First Edition] The People's Pottage / Foreword / The Revolution Was / Ex America / Rise of Empire (SIGNED, in BOTH dust jackets) Garrett, 315.18 CAD Dated May 25, 1953 in New Jersey and signed by the author diagonally in blue fountain pen to the otherwise blank FFE. (No later dates showing.) Presented in its original DOUBLE dust jacket -- the separate inner jacket presenting 40-some additional comments on the book from the likes of Frank Chodorov of Human Events and Henry Hazlitt, edtor of the Freeman. Appears to be a compilation of Garrett booklets previously issued. The federal government set out to quite purposely render the dollar worthless. They succeeded. Who -- other than the government -- will loan money on a farm loan at a fixed rate of interest when the value of a dollar six months hence is unknown, but will be determined only by a number posted each day at the Treasury Department, derived no more transparently than a lottery number? No one. Yet Roosevelt had solemnly pledged to be bound by his 1932 platform, which promised "1) An immediate and drastic reduction of government expenditures by abolishing useless commissions and offices, consolidating departments and offices . . . to accomplish a saving of not less than 25 percent in the cost of Federal government. . . . "2. Maintenance of the national credit by a Federal budget annually balanced. . . . "3. A sound currency to be maintained at all hazards." He lied. Within months, he confiscated the people's gold. Sure, grandpa was paid 20 paper dollars an ounce when he had to turn it in. Today that ounce of gold is worth $3,600. Try demanding $3,600 worth of food and clothing for your $20 bill today. Try.
