THANKSGIVING ANALYST: Kevin D. Miller author of Heart Of Steel.

Thanksgiving get togethers can be awkward at best; drunk uncles, political arguments, family gossip and more can turn turkey day into turmoil. But...it could be worse. Way worse.

Kevin Miller woke up one morning to learn the Miller family name he’d used all his life was not even his real name! And, in his search for why his whole family had changed their name, he uncovered multiple family secrets including brutal abuse, raging alcoholism, multiple miscarriages, incredible struggles and even a secret family murder! How about trying to explain that around the Thanksgiving feast?

What do you do? In Kevin’s case, he wrote about it in his new book HEART OF STEEL!

Kevin, a U.S. Air Force veteran, accidentally discovered an old yellowed newspaper clipping that revealed his real last name isn’t the All-American Miller, but the very Polish Puchalski. Kevin’s research unearthed that his grandfather Stanley Puchalski was a man with many secrets, including a grisly murder, and they were all buried with him. The family secrets were so devastating, it compelled Stanley to change their family name and never talk about it!

ABOUT: In the early morning hours of September 13, 1920, a tragic murder takes place at the Pulchalski farmhouse in Southington, Ohio. Twelve-year-old Stanley desperately runs along a dusty country road sent by his frantic mother to fetch the Sheriff. An infamous scandal unfolds over the next several weeks taking Stanley and his siblings on a harrowing journey through a notorious orphanage in Warren Ohio and an incredible attempt to escape. Finding true love is Stanley's only hope to finally come to terms with the torment of his tragic past. The story is based on true events in the life of Stanley William Miller. It inspires the heart on how a young man’s devotion to his family pushes him beyond impossible odds and testifies to the perseverance of the human spirit. A murder mystery. An infamous scandal. A beautiful love story.

BIO: I love stories based on real life. Real life drama, real life hardships and real love and family. To me those are the best stories to be told. I didn't know my last name wasn't originally Miller, until only a few years ago. My grandfather took many secrets to his grave. A series of newspaper

Where Do You Fall On The Political Spectrum?

America’s 2020 election promises to be a huge battle for the economic soul and political heart of the

country. Many citizens, however, are confused by the labels they hear thrown around -- socialist,

libertarian, liberal, right-wing. A new book gives us a historical understanding of these political

movements, helping to educate voters on how to view the political parties and candidates of today.

“People forget or never fully understood what Stalin, Mussolini, Lenin or Hitler stood for,” says L.K.

Samuels author of Killing History. “We need to learn from the deadly history of the past century so that

Americans don’t ever make a mistake on what they believe and whom they support.”

Samuels will explain the following:

 How we can help people identify what type of politics they believe in.

 Why we must be aware of the various political approaches to government – and why some must

be shunned.

 How he feels Americans can work together to strengthen America if we get on the same page.

 Why history’s been distorted – and why we must step out of our tribalistic perspectives to clearly

see the state of things now.

 How past wars and political ideologies got us to where we are today – and how the politics of old

is different than today’s political perspectives.

 How myths have masqueraded as history – and why we find it hard to believe in anything today.

“We each need to discover which political party is truly in line with our own philosophical beliefs.” says

Samuels. “There must be a way to find meaningful coordinates and redraw the political map. With a

slew of historical facts presented in my book, one can now navigate the political swamplands with a

faithful GPS to figure out one’s own political place.”

His book is based on six years of research and contains 1,500 footnotes. He previously published In

Defense of Chaos: The Chaology of Politics, Economics, and Human Action. He wrote guest columns

for the Orange County Register. He also managed the Future of Freedom Conference series for five years,

arranging speaking engagements for Timothy Leary, Ray Bradbury, Arthur Laffer, Karl Hess, Nathaniel

Brandon, and dozens of other scholars and writers, which were mostly held at university campuses in

Southern California. He helped found Rampart Institute with Robert LeFevre in 1980 and eventually

became its president. He resides in Carmel, CA.

Thanksgiving is approaching, and a nation with so much in common looks more divided than

ever. Let’s go back to an incredible, true story about the arrival of the Pilgrims, one that

demonstrates their will to survive, work together, and prosper, traits that became the

hallmarks of our nation. Here to tell us about this is author AK Patch.

 

HOW DOES THIS STORY BEGIN?

 

1. The Mayflower crosses the Atlantic in October 1620, leaving England two months

later than scheduled. They hit horrific storms. The 102 passengers are sick-sick and

packed within the ship. John Howland, 21 yrs. Old, and an indentured servant to John

Carver, goes up on deck during a storm and is thrown overboard. He’s able to grab onto

a rope hanging over the side. He plunges deep into the cold waters, but is able to grasp

the rope. The crews hauls him back aboard, and he survives the rest of the voyage to

Plymouth.

 

WHAT HAPPENED TO JOHN HOWLAND AT PLYMOUTH PLANTATION?

 

2. John Carver becomes first governor of Massachusetts. Many parents die, leaving

children as orphans. Elizabeth Tilley loses her parents and relatives that first winter.  51

of the original 102 Pilgrims die that first winter. John Carver and his wife, childless,

perish also, leaving John Howland as Head of Household. He is absolved of his

indentured status and becomes a citizen with significant land holdings.

3. He marries Elizabeth Tilley at 17 yrs. old and an important American family is born. They

have ten children and eight-eight grandchildren (Wow).  Millions of American are

descendants including Humphrey Bogart, Henry David Thoreau, Joseph Smith Jr., the

leader of the Mormon Church, Alec Baldwin and Sarah Palin.

4. They both live until the late 1600’s in a period of great expansion, but also great unrest

with the Native Americans in New England.

 

Why is this story Important?

 

1. It is well for us to remember that we are the progeny of people who took great risks

to create the country we have now. The nation is not perfect and we’re still learning,

but we a commonality as Americans. We all derive from these people who

emigrated from whatever country and fought to make a life here. We have more in

common than not, and we should celebrate this and offer thanks for our bountiful

lives.

2. A testament to their will to survive and our national commonality.
