Author by: David Cordingly Languange: en Publisher by: Random House Format Available: PDF, ePub, Mobi Total Read: 87 Total Download: 935 File Size: 53,7 Mb Description: For this rousing, revisionist history, the former head of exhibitions at England's National Maritime Museum has combed original documents and records to produce a most authoritative and definitive account of piracy's 'Golden Age.' As he explodes many accepted myths (i.e. Grecheskij shrift russkij.
'walking the plank' is pure fiction), Cordingly replaces them with a truth that is more complex and often bloodier. From the Hardcover edition. Author by: Sami Moubayed Languange: en Publisher by: I.B.Tauris Format Available: PDF, ePub, Mobi Total Read: 81 Total Download: 378 File Size: 54,7 Mb Description: The Islamic State movement (ISIS/ISIL/IS) burst onto the world stage in 2014. From its heartland in Syria, where it arose from the chaos of the Syrian Revolt, the organisation has expanded in ideology and membership and now poses a significant threat to the region, if not to the wider world. Moubayed, a Beirut-based journalist who has been analysing Syria and the region for 20 years, has unrivalled access to the movement and its participants. His book is the first inside account of an organisation which has dominated the headlines with a dangerous mix of barbarity and military prowess. In looking at the historical background of ISIS: where it came from, how it evolved, where it stands today and what its aims are for the future to reveal, it will provide, for the first time, a fully-fledged picture of what lies at the heart of the Islamic State.
Author by: Simon Bent Languange: en Publisher by: Oberon Books Format Available: PDF, ePub, Mobi Total Read: 83 Total Download: 821 File Size: 48,9 Mb Description: King Charles is dead and Oliver Cromwell presides over the new Commonwealth. All should be well, but for a motley crew of disaffected radicals, chief among them John Silver, England under the 'Lord Protector' is little better than it was before. Only at sea, under a pirate flag, can the clamorous voices of republicanism, anarchy and theocracy be heard. Scraps of Hamlet, King Lear and The Tempest all find echoes in the disordered mind of John Silver as he plies his violent trade along the Barbary Coast, turning every political enmity to his advantage and dodging the knife of his ruthless pursuer, Captain Mission. Based on the real life cutthroat of Stevenson's Treasure Island and set around the historical pirate republic of Rabat, this wild tale of high seas and low politics exposes the class hatreds and religious hypocrisy of the 17th century.

True stories of such notorious brigands as Captain Kidd and Edward (Blackbeard) Teach, as well as such lesser-known pirates as John Quelch, Christopher Scudamore, and Erasmus Peterson. Author by: Cygnet Brown Languange: en Publisher by: Lulu.com Format Available: PDF, ePub, Mobi Total Read: 58 Total Download: 608 File Size: 40,9 Mb Description: Jonathan Mayford wants to join the Patriot Cause because he wants to prove that he's a man. Despite his parents' misgivings, they allow him to join his father's privateer, the American Elizabeth.
Jonathan befriends an old sea cook, Finis Henderson who teaches him about the sea. Later, he also becomes friends with a young African American boy, James Forten The relationship that takes Jonathan from boyhood to manhood began when he met the red-headed Lowri Howell, a daughter of Welsh nobleman. Jonathan dreams of the day that he will become worthy of her affections. He hoped that in winning this war, he might have a chance at capturing her heart, his greatest prize of all. Both Jonathan and James discover fighting in the war is not what makes a man. They learn that becoming a real man requires integrity and character. Author by: William S.
