It is this, the inner life of the astronauts, that Tom Wolfe describes with his almost uncanny empathetic powers that made The Right Stuff a classic.

Story
How did the Wendels, one of New York’s most famous Gilded Age families, disappear from history? The Wendels built a fortune from New York real estate, and rubbed shoulders with the Astors, Vanderbilts, and Stuyvesants. But as the 19th century came to an end, the Wendel family tore itself apart. Following six years of painstaking archival research, Claire Prentice has prised open the door of the Wendels’ Fifth Avenue mansion—dubbed “the house of mystery” by the press—to reveal a fascinating and dysfunctional family imprisoned in a gilded cage.

Story
The history of the Boston Tea Party is a hidden one. Why? Since it was a clandestine operation, all sorts of rumors and legends grew up around the event—many collected decades after the American Revolution had ended. At its core, however, the night of December 16, 1773, when colonials dumped tea from British ships into Boston Harbor, was more than a fight over tea and taxes. It was a struggle over the very nature of democracy and self-governance.

A historical educational epic
I have been enthralled with the Romans for most of my life, funnily enough but experiences heated floor tiles and a passer by mentioning that this kind of technology sprouted from the ingenuity of the Romans. Ever since then, I have been so excited to learn as much as a can about this highly impressive and intelligent reign. Although Aeon history calls this an “intuductory history of Rome”, I think this is a far more far reaching project. Gary Bartley expertly narrates his way through the history of kinds, emperors, lengends, mythology, historical events, and so much more that could possibly be mentioned here. Excellent history stuff again from Aeon history.
