Betrayed by his kinsmen, his forces overrun by Danes, King Alfred of Wessex has retreated deep into the marshes of his homeland, lying in wait for his chance at redemption. The scourge of the heathen horde that has ravaged the kingdom for decades is at its peak. Led by the fearsome Viking warlord Guthrum, the fate of the men, women, and children at their mercy appears all but sealed. But underestimate the great king at your peril... Gathering allies and bannermen to his cause, and building a strategy that will hopefully ensure victory, Alfred sets out to undermine the strength of the complacent invaders, and establish Wessex as the greatest territory in the British Isles. A final showdown awaits. Not only with Guthrum and his savage warriors, but with destiny. As the battle lines are drawn, the destiny of not just Wessex, but of every Anglo-Saxon in Britain, rests firmly on Alfred’s shoulders. An utterly ferocious and gripping adventure, covering the fascinating middle years of Alfred the Great’s reign, one of Britain’s most influential monarchs.
Book Synopsis Soldiers of Barbarossa by : Craig W.H. Luther
Download or read book Soldiers of Barbarossa written by Craig W.H. Luther and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2020-11-15 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The scope and scale of Operation Barbarossa—the German invasion of the Soviet Union—make it one of the pivotal events of the Second World War. Yet our understanding of both the military campaign as well as the “war of annihilation” conducted throughout the occupied territories depends overwhelmingly on “top-down” studies. The three million German soldiers who crossed the Soviet border and experienced this war are seldom the focus and are often entirely ignored. Who were these men and how did they see these events? Luther and Stahel, two of the leading experts on Operation Barbarossa, have reconstructed the 1941 campaign entirely through the letters (as well as a few diaries) of more than 200 German soldiers across all areas of the Eastern Front. It is an original perspective on the campaign, one of constant combat, desperate fear, bitter loss, and endless exertions. One learns the importance of comradeship and military training, but also reads the frightening racial and ideological justifications for the war and its violence, which at times lead to unrelenting cruelty and even mass murder. Soldiers of Barbarossa is a unique and sobering account of 1941, which includes hundreds of endnotes by Luther and Stahel providing critical context, corrections, and commentary.

Book excerpt: Can a man be in two places at one time? Three months have passed. Gil is confined to Jason Fairchild’s clinic, his sanity doubted by all but Crazy Ivan, when Feannag appears with Aidan’s seeing stone. Rescued by Ivan, he escapes to the river, the Underwater Bridge, and 9th Century Orkney. All has changed. Burned by the Golden Knight, Cille Aidan and Einar’s Holm are deserted ruins, their people exiled to Floki’s lands on Hrolf’s Isle. Mercenaries roam the islands, seeking rumoured treasure and a stolen royal bride. Hidden on an island across a treacherous tide-race, Janetta is safe. Rachel shelters in a cell beside Aidan’s new church. Percy, Earl’s Cupbearer at Floki’s High Table, never leaves his side. But Danni, Ismail and Hakon, captured in the flight from Caledon and sold to a Norwegian sea-king, are hostages in Norway, awaiting ransom. While Magnus broods on the high price paid for the Warrior’s quest, Floki raises a sea force to win them back. Labouring in Eyolf Grimsson’s shipyard and daring the tide-race in a skiff to meet Janetta, Gil learns both ships and sailing. When Silver Dragon leads Floki’s fleet to Norway, Gil is on the steersman’s bench, Helmsman to the Earl. Arriving, they meet betrayal. The king has sold the hostages to a slave trader, ten days before. Demanding the release of Hakon’s crew, Floki takes the king’s young son hostage to ensure he keeps his word. As the weeping boy is carried to Silver Dragon, Gil swears he will find a better way to live. But can he? So begins a voyage far longer than any imagine. From Norway to the slave markets of Jorvik, on to the pilgrim port of Dofras and beyond to the island fortress of Mont Tombe, where in a tournament melee Gil crosses lances with Jocelyn Guidbairn and finds his father, Lance’lot. But still the sea roads roll on before them, and still Danni is captive ... Come sail the Northlands seas as Odin’s Maiden’s dance and follow Frigga’s spindle South. Come helm a Viking warship with the Warriors of Tir nan Og.

Book excerpt: The author of The Incredible Voyage sets out on a “simply tremendous” and death-defying adventure sailing through the Arctic Ocean (Kirkus Reviews, starred review). Retiring on a pension after being torpedoed in WWII, Tristan Jones embarks on a test of endurance that will last over two years, nearly killing him more than once. Attempting to sail farther North than anyone ever has, he embarks from Iceland on the Cresswell in the summer of 1959. His only companion? A three-legged, one-eyed Labrador named Nelson. He spends his first winter holed up near an Eskimo village in a Greenland fjord. After a violent snowstorm and without an adequate supply of food, he spends a full week digging himself out of enormous snow drifts until he is able to be seen and rescued. This incident kicks off a series of impossible adventures as he voyages to the treacherous waters of the North Pole. His second winter at sea finds him trapped in an enormous ice pack in the Arctic Ocean. For 366 days he is marooned on the craft. As he faces his loneliness and the possibility of his own death under the dazzling Northern lights, Tristan Jones's incomparable sailing adventure reaches an unimaginable climax. ICE! is a classic tale of adventure, its author acclaimed by Time magazine as "someone Lindbergh would have understood".
Book Synopsis Age of Wolf and Wind by : Davide Zori
Download or read book Age of Wolf and Wind written by Davide Zori and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2024-01-02 with total page 521 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Vikings continue to fascinate us because their compelling stories connect with universal human desires for exploration and adventure. In Age of Wolf and Wind: Voyages through the Viking World, author Davide Zori argues that recent advances in excavation and archaeological science, coupled with a re-evaluation of oral traditions and written sources, inspire the telling of new and engaging stories that further our understanding of the Viking Age. Drawing upon his fieldwork experience across the Viking world, he proposes that the best method for weaving together these narratives is a balanced, interdisciplinary approach that integrates history, archaeology, and new scientific techniques. The book delves into key questions of the Viking Age, such as the motivations of Scandinavians to board open wooden ships to raid England or cross the North Atlantic in search of new worlds beyond Europe. Each chapter offers new conclusions about the Vikings--their views on death, their raiding tactics, their lavish feasts, their forging of powerful medieval states, and many others. In each case, Zori brings together written sources, archaeology, and the natural sciences. The dialogues he creates between these three separate data sets result in an entanglement of confirmation (texts, archaeology, and science affirming the same story), contradiction (texts, archaeology, and science telling incompatible stories) and complementarity (texts, archaeology, and science contributing mutually enriching stories). This optimistic yet critical treatment of the sources allows for a holistic picture of the Viking Age to emerge, one that is accessible to a general audience but simultaneously offers new insights into current key issues of scholarly debate.

Download or read book Blood Eye written by Giles Kristian and published by Bantam. This book was released on 2012-08-28 with total page 365 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A Viking adventure, packed with battles, blood and gore, Raven is historical fiction at its very best, and marks the debut of an outstanding new talent. For two years Osric has lived a simple life, apprenticed to the mute old carpenter who took him in when others spurned him. But when Norsemen from across the sea burn his village, Osric is taken prisoner by these warriors. Their chief, Sigurd the Lucky, believes the Norns have woven this strange boy’s fate together with his own, and Osric begins to sense glorious purpose among this fellowship of warriors. Immersed in the Norsemen’s world and driven by their lust for adventure, Osric proves a natural warrior and forges a blood bond with Sigurd, who renames him Raven. But the Norsemen’s world is a savage one, where loyalty is often repaid in blood and where a young man must become a killer in order to survive. When the Fellowship faces annihilation from ealdorman Ealdred of Wessex, Raven chooses a bloody and dangerous path, accepting the mission of raiding deep into hostile lands to steal a holy book from Coenwolf, King of Mercia. There he will find much more than the Holy Gospels of St Jerome. He will find Cynethryth, an English girl with a soul to match his own. And he will find betrayal at the hands of cruel men, some of whom he regards as friends.

This book was released on 2024-01-29 with total page 701 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Humans, over many millennia, have been intrigued with magnetism and continuously revealing its nature and association with other objects, both animate and inanimate. Started with reverence for its mystic power, the beautiful minds soon find the means to harness it. This book is an omnibus that helps one travel through time over many millennia until today while giving glimpses of human achievements in the Odyssey of human civilisation. This is a scientific essay. Nevertheless, it offers a range of flavours, such as the history of science, philosophy, social construct, the early scientific revolution, the impact of the Industrial Revolution, the growth of modern science, and discussion on scientific phenomena with no less scientific rigour, while remaining simple and intelligible. The book will be food for academic minds and a pleasant experience for general readers.
