Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I decided to make this separate book of maps to accompany ‘Intrepid Dudettes of the Inca Empire’, because readers might want to refer to them at several points while reading, so I thought it could be useful to have them in a different file. The book refers to the maps by number (e.g. Map 2) at points when you might want to take a look at them. There are maps of countries, the empire itself and more detailed maps of specific parts of countries. Also, I love maps. #MapsForTheWin!

Download or read book Kuartam written by Helen Pugh and published by Helen Pugh. This book was released on with total page 13 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the province of Morona-Santiago, around the city of Macas, a legend has always been told about the dangers of behaving disrespectfully towards nature. It is a legend that comes from the Shuar people, who live in the jungle in the eastern Ecuadorian Amazon. Generally speaking, they are brave and proud of their traditions and of the fact that they are one of a handful of indigenous groups who managed to resist both the colonising missions of the Inca and the Spanish. The upper photo of the front cover is a genuine Shuar dwelling that was on the side of the road on the way from Puyo to Macas in Ecuador. The lower one is a view of the rainforest as taken from Macas. Of all the towns and cities I visited in the Ecuadorian Amazon region, Macas was my favourite.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When Jack Leith died in 1899, his bequest to Tom and George, the children of his second marriage, was five hundred pounds and an understanding that they would always take care of their mother. The money was to be shared equally between the two of them; responsibility for their mother Tom took entirely upon his own shoulders. Tom: determined to honour his father's legacy, and willing to set aside his own wishes as he does his best to please a demanding mother. George: strong-willed to the point of obstinacy, and equally determined to go wherever his ambitions lead. George seeks adventure, while Tom asks for little more than a tranquil household. Though the brothers' affection for each other never wavers, they follow increasingly divergent paths as each in his own way strives for a life that may hold more than mere contentment. __________________________________________________________________________________________________________ For readers of the "Promises to Keep" series, Tom and George follows the lives of Amy's younger brothers after their father's death.
Book Synopsis The Ladies of Dunster Castle by : Jim Lee
Download or read book The Ladies of Dunster Castle written by Jim Lee and published by Mereo Books, mereobook, mereobooks. This book was released on 2016-11-11 with total page 161 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With a documented history stretching back a thousand years, Dunster Castle in Somerset is one of Britain?s oldest and most intriguing great buildings, its turrets evoking centuries of warfare, dark deeds, bloodshed and treachery. What makes it particularly unusual is the prominent role women have played in its fortunes, from the indomitable Joan de Mohun in the 14th century, who promised as much land to the villagers as she could walk around barefoot in a day, to Lady Jane Luttrell, who saw off a Royalist attack during the English Civil War by personally commanding the cannons. Jim Lee worked for many years at the castle and knows more about it than just about anyone. Here he presents an entertaining history of the roles, from the heroic to the self-indulgent, its women have played over the centuries.ÿ
Book Synopsis The Somerset Underground - A History of the GHQ Auxiliary Units 1940 to 1944 in Somerset 1940 to 1944 by : Tim Wray
Download or read book The Somerset Underground - A History of the GHQ Auxiliary Units 1940 to 1944 in Somerset 1940 to 1944 written by Tim Wray and published by . This book was released on 2016-04-21 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: After Dunkirk and the fall of France in the summer of 1940, the immediate threat of a Nazi invasion of Britain caused a tidal wave of panic across Britain, and Somerset with its long coastline was seen as a target. Fortunately a number of far-sighted individuals in the British government, the Secret Intelligence Service and the armed forces had taken the Nazi threat more seriously than the appeasers and planned for clandestine warfare after Britain had been occupied. The Secret Intelligence Service and the War Office fought a bitter battle for ultimate control of the British 'sabotage service' and out of this conflict sprang a number of secret organisations. The best known of these was the Auxiliary Units which was a short-term rural-based civilian guerrilla force organised through the War Office. A clandestine intelligence gathering and communications cadre called the Special Duties Branch was set up and run by the Secret Intelligence Service. This book is believed to be first to attribute a significant political element to the DNA of the Auxiliary Units and Special Duties Branch, from the Establishment figures at the very top, down to the adventurous ex-public school and Oxbridge educated Army officers who led at regional level. At the time Britain was politically divided and the Establishment feared arming the workers and increasing the risk of armed insurrection at home. Therefore recruitment to the guerrilla network focused on rural areas, purposely avoiding the industrial heartlands and in doing so deliberately steered the organisation away from a left-of-centre political bias. Follow this history of Somerset and view its sleepy wartime in a new light and learn the secrets under the softly rolling hills and misty moorlands. "An astonishingly detailed and well researched book, a great read for any historian." - Claire Ashton - www.book-reviewer.com.
