At one point in our lives or another, we have all had the experience of wanting to try our hand at something we have no business trying. Whether it’s striking out on a new career path or asking someone out who’s out of our league, many of us know what it’s like to find our way barred before we’ve even set out. But even without the requisite qualities, skills, or street cred, we can still make our dreams come true. How? By simply refusing to wait for an invitation! In this original work of nonfiction, career keynote speaker Allan James Moore argues compellingly for crashing life’s parties you feel you should be in but have not been invited to and probably never will. Part memoir and part self-help, Party Crash Your Career & Life shows how making your own opportunities and carving your own path—regardless of your experience, reputation, or credentials—leads to both personal and professional success. Drawing both on his own personal experience—from trying out for a professional soccer team to a stint as a Mandarin interpreter and translator, to his eventual success as a keynote speaker delivering speeches across the globe—as well as a wealth of examples drawn from the worlds of sports and entertainment—from Steve Nash to Susan Boyle—Moore demonstrates the power of party crashing your way into the places, relationships, and positions of your dreams. "Party Crashers" reminds us that you don''t always have to be invited if you have the work ethic and preparation to crash the demands of the party. Moore recognizes that a lack of invitation can be a test to overcome rather than an absolute rejection and leads us to live a life without regret. Kasia Gruchalla-Wesierski, B.A.(PSYC), OLY Tokyo 2020 Olympic Champion 2024 CAN Fund Recipient "I’ve known Allan for almost 30 years, and this book is a perfect reflection of his journey—creating his own opportunities and breaking through barriers when others would have quit. It’s inspiring, practical, and packed with wisdom you can apply right away. If you’re ready to take control of your future, this book will show you how to make it happen." Dr. Jeff Bartlett BackFit Clinic “Allan has brilliantly painted what it means to be a party crasher — and the promise it holds to transform the way you approach work and life. His inspiring stories and practical strategies will ensure you stop waiting for the opportunity, get into bold action, and live a life without regret!” Carol Schulte, M.A. B.F.A. Keynote Speaker | Executive Coach Founder of The Brave Initiative Building Braver Leaders and Cultivating Braver Cultures. "The stories are fantastic! It''s a great message and a fun read" Hugh Culver, M.B.A., Business Coach | Entrepreneur | Keynote Speaker Past President of the Canadian Association of Professional Speakers Association

In The Captives of Abb''s Valley, James Moore recounts a harrowing and deeply personal tale of survival on America''s turbulent frontier. Set against the backdrop of the late 18th-century wilderness, this narrative chronicles the brutal attack on a small Virginia settlement and the subsequent captivity of its survivors by Native American warriors. Moore''s firsthand account, enriched by family records and local history, provides a vivid and unflinching portrait of the perils faced by early American pioneers. Beyond the bloodshed and hardship, the story grapples with themes of endurance, cultural collision, and the resilience of the human spirit. Moore''s work captures not only the violence of the era but also the complexity of frontier relationships between settlers and indigenous peoples. A gripping testament to fortitude and survival, The Captives of Abb''s Valley remains a vital piece of early American historical literature, illuminating a dramatic and often overlooked chapter of the nation''s past.

When James Moore joined the ATF in 1960, it was an arm of the Internal Revenue Service with one job: to catch the Mafia bootleggers whose distilleries cheated Uncle Sam of millions in tax revenue. During his twenty-five years of service, Moore saw the organization shift to enforcing of gun laws, be reborn as a separate bureau, and take on bombings and arson cases that most law officers wrote off as impossible to solve. Moore''s personal, from-the-hip history spans the long-running war against dons and drug dealers and covers agents'' daring infiltration of the Ku Klux Klan, Hell''s Angels, and other violent groups. He reveals the cutting-edge forensics work that helped crack the World Trade Center and Oklahoma City bombings and also provides an insider account of the raid on the Branch Davidians at Waco. Finally, Moore discusses the ATF''s rivalry with the FBI and the political power games that impede the government''s ability to fight crime.

" Most people believe that the true key to becoming ultra-wealthy lies in some sort of "secret," a kind of well-kept secret that''s extremely "hush-hush," and only realized by a small amount of the elite, or a privileged few. But, actually, this isn''t the case at all. In fact, these super-rich individuals realize that their money needs to work for them and so they learn how to take what are known as "calculated" risks. The super-rich are definitely not psychics, nor do they have a "magic" secret that they hold close to their own kind. In fact, their real secret lies in the fact that they know what simple investing mistakes should be avoided. And, in truth, these mistakes are common knowledge, even among those investors who are not particularly wealthy at all. Investing properly is a guided, purposeful tool for building and adding to wealth, but it is not only for the rich. Actually, anyone can get started quite easily, and there are multiple avenues that make it easy to begin, with small amounts to start up a portfolio. Additionally, what differentiates using investment (as opposed to gambling) is that it takes a period of time for the "magic" to happen. Therefore, it is not a get-rich-quick scheme, at all. I want us to be clear on that point from the get-go. By the end of this book, you''ll have a great understanding of what investing is, and you will know how the magic of compounding works too. We''ll take a look at other options that you might find useful, so then you''ll have the knowledge you need before you get started with your own investing. Again, thank you for joining me here; it''s my pleasure to guide you through this important information. I believe that knowledge is power, and I hope that you''ll feel more comfortable once you get the real gist of how it all works, and how it can work really well for you. "

Applying his controversial theory of evolution to the origins of the human species, Charles Darwin''s The Descent of Man was the culmination of his life''s work. This Penguin Classics edition is edited with an introduction by James Moore and Adrian Desmond. In The Origin of Species, Charles Darwin refused to discuss human evolution, believing the subject too ''surrounded with prejudices''. He had been reworking his notes since the 1830s, but only with trepidation did he finally publish The Descent of Man in 1871. The book notoriously put apes in our family tree and made the races one family, diversified by ''sexual selection'' - Darwin''s provocative theory that female choice among competing males leads to diverging racial characteristics. Named by Sigmund Freud as ''one of the ten most significant books'' ever written, Darwin''s Descent of Man continues to shape the way we think about what it is that makes us uniquely human. In their introduction, James Moore and Adrian Desmond, acclaimed biographers of Charles Darwin, call for a radical re-assessment of the book, arguing that its core ideas on race were fired by Darwin''s hatred of slavery. The text is the second and definitive edition and this volume also contains suggestions for further reading, a chronology and biographical sketches of prominent individuals mentioned. Charles Darwin (1809-82), a Victorian scientist and naturalist, has become one of the most famous figures of science to date. The advent of On the Origin of Species by Means of Natural Selection in 1859 challenged and contradicted all contemporary biological and religious beliefs. If you enjoyed The Descent of Man, you might like Darwin''s On the Origin of Species, also available in Penguin Classics.

"Collates the most shocking killings and puzzling murder mysteries from the sixteenth century in fascinating detail" — Gazette & Herald In the Tudor age the murder rate was five times higher than it is today. Now, this unique true crime guide, The Tudor Murder Files, reveals just how bloody and brutal this fascinating era really was. From the dark days of Henry VIII to the turbulent times of Shakespeare, James Moore''s new book is the first to chart the period''s most gripping murder cases in all their grizzly detail. Featuring tales of domestic slaughter, sexual intrigue, and cunning assassinations, as well as murder mysteries worthy of Agatha Christie, the book vividly brings to life the violent crime wave that gripped the sixteenth century both at home and abroad. Enter a world in which stabbings were rife, guns were used to kill victims for the first time, and in which culprits frequently escaped justice. The book also reveals just how severe some of the penalties could be, with grisly punishments for those who dared to commit the gravest of crimes. Discover how one murderer was gruesomely pressed to death, another boiled alive for poisoning his victims, and meet some of history''s most notorious serial killers, including one considered so barbaric she was labelled a vampire. "Contains more than seventy real life murders, profiling over thirty cases in detail. And not only does James chart how killers were caught and dealt with by the justice system, he also discusses how murders were reported to the new, news hungry nation." — Luton Today

An "arresting" and deeply personal portrait that "confront[s] the touchy subject of Darwin and race head on" ( The New York Times Book Review). It''s difficult to overstate the profound risk Charles Darwin took in publishing his theory of evolution. How and why would a quiet, respectable gentleman, a pillar of his parish, produce one of the most radical ideas in the history of human thought? Drawing on a wealth of manuscripts, family letters, diaries, and even ships'' logs, Adrian Desmond and James Moore have restored the moral missing link to the story of Charles Darwin''s historic achievement. Nineteenth-century apologists for slavery argued that blacks and whites had originated as separate species, with whites created superior. Darwin, however, believed that the races belonged to the same human family. Slavery was therefore a sin, and abolishing it became Darwin''s sacred cause. His theory of evolution gave a common ancestor not only to all races, but to all biological life. This "masterful" book restores the missing moral core of Darwin''s evolutionary universe, providing a completely new account of how he came to his shattering theories about human origins ( Publishers Weekly, starred review). It will revolutionize your view of the great naturalist. "An illuminating new book." —Smithsonian "Compelling . . . Desmond and Moore aptly describe Darwin''s interaction with some of the thorniest social and political issues of the day." — Wired "This exciting book is sure to create a stir." —Janet Browne, Aramont Professor of the History of Science, Harvard University, and author of Charles Darwin: Voyaging

In the past 20 years, this book has never been out or print. Celebrate this milestone Abingdon has created this Anniversary Edition! James W. Moore is a master storyteller. Individuals and groups across the country have read and enjoyed his books and what they reveal to us about God and our selves. In this book, Moore observes that people often give lame excuses for their arrogance, dishonesty, hostility, and presumptuousness. He challenges readers to recognize such situations and to grow beyond them. He addresses such “sins” as half-heartedness, spiritual arrogance, deception, overreaction, hostility, presumptuousness, losing spiritual balance, and more. He also discusses the joys of redemption and grace.

During the Second World War, an American behavioural psychologist working with pigeons discovered that the birds could be trained to recognise an object and to peck at an image of it; when loaded into the nose-cone of a missile, these pecks could be translated into adjustments to the guidance fins, steering the projectile to its target. Pigeon-Guided Missiles reveals this and other fascinating tales of daring plans from history destined to change the world we live in, yet which ended in failure, or even disaster. Some became the victims of the eccentric figures behind them, others succumbed to financial and political misfortune, and a few were just too far ahead of their time. Discover why the great groundnut scheme cost British taxpayers £49 million, why the bid to build Minerva, a whole new country in the Pacific Ocean, sank, and why the first Channel Tunnel (started in 1881, over a century before the one we know today) hit a dead end.

Praise for Bush''s Brain "Love him or hate him, Karl Rove is one of the most brilliant and successful political consultants of all time. In this riveting account, Wayne Slater and Jim Moore tell how he got there." —Paul Begala, CNN''s Crossfire "Bush''s Brain isn''t a hatchet job on George W. Bush. In fact, the two authors largely dispel the myth of Bush''s supposedly deficient IQ. But, more importantly, they lay bare the story of how Karl Rove may be the most powerful man in America. It''s a compelling story told by two veteran Texas journalists who don''t need a briefing packet to understand the men they''re writing about." —Philip Bruce, KCET/PBS Television, Los Angeles The most powerful individual in the United States may not be George W. Bush. It is probably Karl Rove, the President''s brilliant advisor. Who is this man and how did he acquire so much power? Having watched in awe for over fifteen years as they reported on the rise of Karl Rove, Moore and Slater expose the brutal and sometimes morally questionable, but invariably effective ways in which Karl Rove?and America''s political system—actually operate.

Welcome to Black Stone Bay, Rhode Island, a picturesque town full of charm and beloved holiday traditions. But this Halloween there’s a chill in the air that has nothing to do with autumn. And with it comes a murder of crows casting a shadow on each house, one by one. It’s an omen of things to come, ushering in the arrival of a stranger to Black Stone Bay—a stranger with an insatiable thirst, and a terrible plan for a night no one is meant to survive.

President George W. Bush dubbed Karl Rove “The Architect” for his skill in creating an unprecedented campaign and fund-raising machine. But Rove’s ambitions have always been far more sweeping—to build a right-wing dynasty that can dominate American politics for decades. Rove’s master plan imagines a political system so controlled by Republicans that it is resisted only by symbolic opposition. In The Architect, James Moore and Wayne Slater, the bestselling authors of Bush’s Brain, return with an even more penetrating examination of Rove, his sweeping agenda, and the price he may have to pay for his audacity. Drawing on their decades-long study of Rove, they provide a rarely seen view of the politics of absolute power in Washington—how it is acquired, expanded, and turned to startling ends. Specifically, they unveil how Rove: • Used lobbyist Jack Abramoff as a cat’s-paw to manage unruly legislators • Energetically led the antigay marriage movement while protecting a family secret that made his stance bizarrely cynical • Turned Christian churches into a gigantic vote delivery system, despite privately admitting to being a nonbeliever • Repeatedly leaked information to harm political opponents, making him the man investigators most wanted to talk to when they began probing the Plame affair • Was intimately involved in an international disinformation scheme to lead America to war The Architect is an eye-opening and frequently shocking report on the maneuverings of a brilliant but morally ambiguous political strategist, and the first-ever in-depth look at a political operative striving to absolutely control the future—even if he risks losing everything. Also available as an eBook

A news-breaking exposé of the Bush administration''s rush to war, from the coauthor of the New York Times bestseller Bush''s Brain In this exclusive behind-the-scenes account, veteran journalist James Moore reveals how the overthrow of Saddam Hussein was a key goal of the Bush administration from the very beginning-and a critical component of the president''s reelection strategy. Drawing on high-level sources inside the administration and the military, Moore weaves together a multifaceted narrative that probes the political underpinnings of the administration''s push for an Iraq war, exposes efforts during the war (and after) to manipulate perceptions of U.S. military success, and contrasts it all to the ultimate price paid by soldiers duped into believing they were fighting for a just cause, not for political gain. Moore takes us inside strategy meetings at the White House and the Pentagon, revealing the political calculus behind critical military decisions. He examines the administration''s unprecedented efforts to control an d withhold information, including in-depth discussions with Joseph C. Wilson, husband of Valerie Plame, the CIA operative allegedly exposed by Karl Rove. Moore also gives us an uncensored view of combat in Iraq, reporting opinions of a senior Air Force source and troops on the ground; he shows how the war''s first American casualty actually died, and reveals what really happened to Jessica Lynch''s unit. Finally, Moore uncovers what might be in store if Bush wins reelection: the use of Iraq as a forward base in the fight against terrorism, and where the war may go next. Publishing at the height of the presidential election season next spring, Bush''s War for Reelection is sure to be one of the most talked about books of the year.
