Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This Third Edition Colour Version contains much additional information about the Attwell Family. Set in medieval, Tudor and Stuart England, we discover how the family became involved with the secretive Knights Templar and then spread around the country. There were great landowners associated with Kings and Queens. Some were persecuted, arrested, imprisoned, tortured and suffered horrific executions. One followed the Mayflower to New England only to fall victim to native Indians. We find wonderful cases of jury fixing, insurrection, Lollardry, murder and false imprisonment. There were clandestine meetings, hidden treasures, forfeiture of lands, and piracy against the Spanish. There was a murderous monk who became personal servant to the King; a Lady-in-Waiting to the Queen, who was also the King's mistress; a designer of Warships and co-founder of the Royal Society. We have Lords of the Manor, Elizabethan Actors who knew Shakespeare and even a martyred Saint. These extraordinary tales of our ancestors' lives make this book compelling reading.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This sequel to "A History of the Attwell Family 1200-1650", follows the family through 250 years, as we discover the lives of a further six generations of Attwells. Here we follow the life of a young country lad who was apprenticed in London and rose to become Master of the Worshipful Company of Waxchandlers. He came into contact with two English Kings, and that royal association ultimately led to his downfall. We learn how in 1666 when the Great Fire of London broke out, three of our merchant families lived within a few yards of the Bakery where it started, and how their homes and businesses were destroyed. We then follow the family's decline and its move from London to the Midlands where they settled and once more prospered. There are school-teachers, a staymaker and a host of watchmakers, who eventually returned to London to transform themselves into the foremost family of butchers in the capital. There are tales of wealth won and lost, bankruptcies, knife fights between brothers, a night-time elopement on horseback, and a mother who saw an astonishing 110 of her descendants born during her lifetime. This book not only puts our ancestors' lives into perspective. It gives us a real insight into what life was like when they were alive; their surroundings, living conditions, the calls of street cryers, and all put into historical context. It provides detailed biographical information, numerous family trees, Wills, inventories, details of land dealings and much other fascinating information.

Download or read book Fighting for a living written by Erik-Jan Zürcher and published by Amsterdam University Press. This book was released on 2015-12-15 with total page 690 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The military, in one form or another, are always part of the picture. This unique and compelling study investigates the circumstances that have produced starkly different systems of recruiting and employing soldiers in different parts of the globe over the last 500 years, on the basis of case studies from Europe, Africa, America, the Middle East and Asia. The authors, including Robert Johnson, Frank Tallett and Gilles Weinstein, conduct an international comparison of military service and warfare as forms of labour, and the soldiers as workers. This is the first study to undertake a systematic comparative analysis of military labour, addressing two distinct, and normally quite separate, communities: labour historians and military historians.

Book Synopsis Global History with Chinese Characteristics by : Manuel Perez-Garcia
Download or read book Global History with Chinese Characteristics written by Manuel Perez-Garcia and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2020-11-02 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This open access book considers a pivotal era in Chinese history from a global perspective. This book’s insight into Chinese and international history offers timely and challenging perspectives on initiatives like “Chinese characteristics”, “The New Silk Road” and “One Belt, One Road” in broad historical context. Global History with Chinese Characteristics analyses the feeble state capacity of Qing China questioning the so-called “High Qing” (shèng qīng 盛清) era’s economic prosperity as the political system was set into a “power paradox” or “supremacy dilemma”. This is a new thesis introduced by the author demonstrating that interventionist states entail weak governance. Macao and Marseille as a new case study aims to compare Mediterranean and South China markets to provide new insights into both modern eras’ rising trade networks, non-official institutions and interventionist impulses of autocratic states such as China’s Qing and Spain’s Bourbon empires.
