Book Description
“This is a powerful, vitally important story, and Lane brings it to life with not only vast amounts of research but with a remarkable gift for storytelling that makes the pages fly by.” —Candice Millard, author of The River of Doubt and Hero of the Empire Freedom’s Detective reveals the untold story of the Reconstruction-era United States Secret Service and their battle against the Ku Klux Klan, through the career of its controversial chief, Hiram C. Whitley In the years following the Civil War, a new battle began. Newly freed African American men had gained their voting rights and would soon have a chance to transform Southern politics. Former Confederates and other white supremacists mobilized to stop them. Thus, the KKK was born. After the first political assassination carried out by the Klan, Washington power brokers looked for help in breaking the growing movement. They found it in Hiram C. Whitley. He became head of the Secret Service, which had previously focused on catching counterfeiters and was at the time the government’s only intelligence organization. Whitley and his agents led the covert war against the nascent KKK and were the first to use undercover work in mass crime—what we now call terrorism—investigations. Like many spymasters before and since, Whitley also had a dark side. His penchant for skulduggery and dirty tricks ultimately led to his involvement in a conspiracy that would bring an end to his career and transform the Secret Service. Populated by intriguing historical characters—from President Grant to brave Southerners, both black and white, who stood up to the Klan—and told in a brisk narrative style, Freedom’s Detective reveals the story of this complex hero and his central role in a long-lost chapter of American history.

The Freedom Fight
Author: Ted Shimer
Publisher: High Bridge Books
ISBN: 9781946615558
Category : Self-Help
Languages : en
Pages : 336
Book Description
Today's pornography stimulates the brain like other addictive drugs and is hooking a generation. No one is immune-men, women, young, or old-to the destructive power of porn. It is waging war against a walk with Christ, a godly marriage (or future marriage), and is sidelining God's people from Kingdom service. This book shows a path to true, lasting freedom with a biblical, clinical, and gospel-centered approach to recovery. You will learn the six roots of porn addiction and how to effectively address them. Before God's truth sets us free, it changes us. And because it changes us, the freedom lasts. Whether you need to quit porn yourself or you want to be equipped to help others, this book is for you. What if addressing a great threat to the Church is also a great opportunity for revival and growth? We are seeing it happen, and if you apply the principles in this book, you can see it happen, too. In The Freedom Fight, you will learn ... why a tsunami of addiction is coming and what we can do about it. the brutal impact of pornography on marriages, spiritual lives and churches. how to stop watching porn for good. how porn impacts the brain and how to renew your mind. why quitting porn is so hard and the keys to make it happen. the six roots of a porn addiction and how to effectively address each one. a tool to help you resist temptation and build new brain pathways.
