Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When French aristocrats become targets of public violence, a mysterious hero called the Scarlet Pimpernel works to find and safely smuggle them outside the country. Meanwhile, an accredited agent is desperate to uncover his secret identity. During the French Revolution, many members of the upper-class are publicly brutalized and executed. This leads to the creation of an underground society called the "League of the Scarlet Pimpernel.” Their leader is the unassuming, Sir Percy Blakeney, a baronet who’s married to the beautiful but troubled, Marguerite St. Just. Their relationship is strained due to her complicated history and his false persona. When an ambitious French officer attempts to expose the Scarlet Pimpernel’s true identity, Sir Percy and Marguerite, become unexpected pawns in his plan. With The Scarlet Pimpernel, Baroness Orczy delivers one of the most iconic novels of the twentieth century. It’s a memorable story that’s been adapted multiple times, producing sequels and short story collections. This is the first entry in an expansive series from a brilliant and imaginative author. With an eye-catching new cover, and professionally typeset manuscript, this edition of The Scarlet Pimpernel is both modern and readable.

Herman Cyril McNeile (1888-1937) commonly known as H. C. McNeile or Sapper, was a British soldier and author. Drawing on his experiences in the trenches during the First World War, he started writing short stories and getting them published in the Daily Mail. After the war McNeile left the army and continued writing, although he changed from war stories to thrillers. In 1920 he published Bulldog Drummond, whose eponymous hero became his best-known creation. The character was based on McNeile himself, on his friend Gerard Fairlie and on English gentlemen generally. His stories are either directly about the war, or contain people whose lives have been shaped by it.

Book excerpt: This is a book about Irish nationalism and how Irish nationalists developed their own conception of the Irish race. With an exploration of the discourse of race, this book focuses on how English observers constructed the "native" and Catholic Irish as uncivilized and savage, and on the racialization of the Irish in the nineteenth century, especially in Britain and the United States, where Irish immigrants were often portrayed in terms that had been applied mainly to enslaved Africans and their descendants.

Download or read book Hitler's War written by Harry Turtledove and published by Del Rey. This book was released on 2009-08-04 with total page 513 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A stroke of the pen and history is changed. In 1938, British prime minister Neville Chamberlain, determined to avoid war, signed the Munich Accord, ceding part of Czechoslovakia to Hitler. But the following spring, Hitler snatched the rest of that country, and England, after a fatal act of appeasement, was fighting a war for which it was not prepared. Now, in this thrilling alternate history, another scenario is played out: What if Chamberlain had not signed the accord? In this action-packed chronicle of the war that might have been, Harry Turtledove uses dozens of points of view to tell the story: from American marines serving in Japanese-occupied China and ragtag volunteers fighting in the Abraham Lincoln Battalion in Spain to an American woman desperately trying to escape Nazi-occupied territory—and witnessing the war from within the belly of the beast. A tale of powerful leaders and ordinary people, at once brilliantly imaginative and hugely entertaining, Hitler’s War captures the beginning of a very different World War II—with a very different fate for our world today. BONUS: This edition contains an excerpt from Harry Turtledove's The War that Came Early: West and East.
