Forthcoming from Bartow & Bell Publishing

Four practical, informative series are now in development

01

Historical Lessons Series

The Historical Lessons Series examines how documented events, institutions, personalities, bureaucracies, and human choices interact to shape history. Drawing on established evidence, original sources, and careful synthesis, each volume reveals connections, consequences, and enduring lessons. Multiple volumes will investigate dictators and dictatorships as systems of propaganda, intimidation, violence, bureaucracy, military power, conformity, resistance, and individual choice. Major groupings will cover the National Socialist period, the Stalin period, the Napoleon period, and dictators of the ancient world. The series asks how authoritarian power is created, exercised, sustained, challenged, transformed, and ultimately destroyed.

02

Just the Essentials Series

The Just the Essentials Series provides clear beginner guides to useful technologies, programs, and everyday tasks. Each concise volume removes unnecessary complexity, explains its subject step by step, and helps readers achieve a practical first result. Planned topics include ChatGPT; Adobe Acrobat Reader, Acrobat Pro, Photoshop, Premiere Pro, Firefly, and Adobe Scan; Google Drive, Docs, Gmail, Photos, Calendar, Sheets, Forms, Slides, and Maps; Microsoft Word, Excel, and OneDrive; Final Cut Pro; YouTube; online safety; smartphone photography; and building websites with ChatGPT Sites. Every guide delivers exactly what the series promises: Just the Essentials. No more. No less.

03

Wholeness Life Management Series

The Wholeness Life Management Series provides practical systems for organizing important personal, family, health, financial, and emergency information. Clear instructions, fillable forms, and thoughtfully structured resources help readers reduce stress, prepare wisely, and protect what matters. Each volume is complete enough to be valuable and simple enough to be used.

04

Anomalous Studies Series

The Anomalous Studies Series explores Bigfoot, unexplained structures, unusual evidence, historical mysteries, and other unresolved questions through disciplined inquiry. Developed in cooperation with the Anomalous Studies Foundation, each volume emphasizes documentation, field observation, photographic analysis, competing explanations, and responsible conclusions. Evidence comes first; claims must earn the reader's confidence.
