The social and economic systems you and your family rely on for
subsistence are critically defective. This book details the
precise, basic causes behind the degenerative conditions you see in
society today and offers the new systems needed to replace them.
The bankers are running the world's governments, terrorism is most
often state-sponsored and the elite power-brokers are profiting
from worsening conditions. Until now, the only solution offered to
people that learned what was going on behind the mass media
smoke-screen was to "tell others about it" or "write your
congressman." These actions alone will not avert the impending
social disaster. Now, the basic nuts and bolts of the practical
measures everyone can take to replace the existing dysfunctional
social systems are laid out for anyone to employ.

After serving in the Royal Navy in Canada, Hugh Clapperton
(1788-1827) participated in two expeditions to the interior of
Africa. Richard Lander (1804-34), a young Cornishman who had
travelled widely in the service of previous employers, applied to
accompany him on the second expedition, during which Clapperton
died. Lander published this edition of Clapperton's journal in
1829; an expanded version (also available in this series) appeared
the following year. Clapperton's account of his experiences is
informal, lively and vivid, describing hospitality and annoyances,
discomforts and pleasures. Although its language and attitudes are
typical of the early colonial period, it remains a valuable source
for West African history. The book also contains a short biography
of Clapperton, Lander's emotional account of his master's illness
and death, and his journal of his lonely return journey. The
appendix includes meteorological observations, notes on Arabic
documents, and Yoruba vocabulary.
