Story
This Misery of Boots is the expansion of a 1905 essay by H.G. Wells. He presents a very interesting view of society based on Wells’ observations on boots and the misery they cause to those unable to purchase well-fitting and well-designed boots. He advocates socialism as a way to solve this and other problems. He puts forward arguments that add a voice of support to working-class people of his time. Wells was an avowed socialist.

Story
This book (in dialogue form) explains what is the nature of politics, and what is the anthropological evolution of the political party by defining the essence of the political left and right and their respective raisons d’etre, what motivates them, and the nature of their ethics. The explanation is contained in 7 Dictums (one set of seven principles each for the Left and the Right). Further, the book demonstrates how the Dictums are relative and explanatory to the rise and fall of empires and the causes of war.

Story
In the summer of 1941, Hitler ruled Europe from the Atlantic to the Black Sea. Britain was struggling to combat the powerful Nazi propaganda machine, which crowed victory and smeared its enemies. But inside Germany, there was one notable voice of dissent from the very heart of the military machine, Der Chef, a German whose radio broadcasts skilfully questioned Nazi doctrine. But what these audiences didn't know was that Der Chef was a fiction, a character created by the British propagandist Sefton Delmer.

Story
This second volume begins with the picture of the "glory" of this new dynastic-tribal alliance of European monarchs and their fired-up nationalist people, armed with massive industrial might enabling them to take over massive portions of the rest of the world (Asia and Africa). But this energy turns Europeans on each other when finally there are no more overseas lands to capture, resulting in the disastrous "Great War" (1914-1918).
