The Son King
Author: Madawi Al-Rasheed
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 0197580513
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 408
Book Description
In 2018, journalist Jamal Khashoggi was murdered by Saudi regime operatives, shocking the international community and tarnishing the reputation of Muhammad bin Salman, the kingdom's young, reformist crown prince. Domestically, bin Salman's reforms have proven divisive, and his adoption of populist nationalism and fierce repression of diverse critical voices--religious scholars, feminists and dissident youth--have failed to silence a vibrant and well-connected Saudi society. Madawi Al-Rasheed lays bare the world of repression behind the crown prince's reforms. She dissects the Saudi regime's propaganda and progressive new image, while also dismissing Orientalist views that despotism is the only pathway to stable governance in the Middle East. Charting old and new challenges to the fragile Saudi nation from the kingdom's very inception, this blistering book exposes the dangerous contradictions at the heart of the Son King's Saudi Arabia.

Pages : 146
Book Description
THE KING'S SON (The Evidence) [1st Edition - before "The Answer"] This is the ultimate cold case, a 120 year old mystery hidden in plain sight. This book pieces together the evidence that William James Shepherd was most likely the eldest son of King George V. The case is built-up and includes clues that lead to a clear path forward - readied for a compelling conclusion and full resolution to the mystery. This is a story of intrigue and challenge about a man who left enduring clues during his lifetime about his origins. They were left in a subliminal manner, and at times it was like participating in a movie somewhat like the "Da Vinci Code", with clue after clue being uncovered together with their meaning. The evidence is presented about William Shepherd and how he mysteriously arrives in Australia via unassisted paid passage on a ship having just turned 17, with enough money in his pocket that enables him to purchase a farm within a year. He also arrives with the skills to be able to play the Double Bass and then goes on to become Australia's No. 1 performer. And yet in 1901, just six years earlier he is Census listed as a "Pauper" (age 10) in a London Workhouse orphanage straight out of the pages of the book "Oliver Twist". William throughout his life, due to his looks and mannerisms, is often compared to King George V's acknowledged sons - King Edward VIII and King George VI (i.e. the man portrayed in the movie "The King's Speech"). DNA tests are used to set a test to prove the link. The suspense as to whether it is true or not - and the patience needed to try to obtain a DNA match; makes for a very interesting twist. So based on the evidence collected and presented in this book ....... Was William James Shepherd indeed "The King's Son"? Please read on .......

Languages : en
Pages : 212
Book Description
In the bestselling tradition of such family portraits as Brooke Hayward's Haywire and Christopher Dickey's Summer of Deliverance comes a disarmingly candid memoir from the youngest son of Martin Luther King, Jr. Dexter King was only seven when an assassin's bullet took his father's life, shattering the boy's childhood. And as he stumbled into adolescence, both the tragedy and the weight of living up to "the King legacy" would exact an additional toll.
