Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the spring of 1676, Nathaniel Bacon, a hotheaded young newcomer to Virginia, led a revolt against the colony's Indian policies. Bacon's Rebellion turned into a civil war within Virginia--and a war of extermination against the colony's Indian allies--that lasted into the following winter, sending shock waves throughout the British colonies and into England itself. James Rice offers a colorfully detailed account of the rebellion, revealing how Piscataways, English planters, slave traders, Susquehannocks, colonial officials, plunderers and intriguers were all pulled into an escalating conflict whose outcome, month by month, remained uncertain. In Rice's rich narrative, the lead characters come to life: the powerful, charismatic Governor Berkeley, the sorrowful Susquehannock warrior Monges, the wiley Indian trader and tobacco planter William Byrd, the regal Pamunkey chieftain Cockacoeske, and the rebel leader himself, Nathaniel Bacon. The dark, slender Bacon, born into a prominent family, soon earned a reputation in America as imperious, ambitious, and arrogant. But the colonial leaders did not foresee how rash and headstrong Nathaniel Bacon could be, nor how adept he would prove to be at both inciting colonists and alienating Indians. As the tense drama unfolds, it becomes apparent that the struggle between Governor Berkeley and the impetuous Bacon is nothing less than a battle over the soul of America. Bacon died in the midst of the uprising and Governor Berkeley shortly afterwards, but the profoundly important issues at the heart of the rebellion took another generation to resolve. The late seventeenth century was a pivotal moment in American history, full of upheavals and far-flung conspiracies. Tales From a Revolution brilliantly captures the swirling rumors and central events of Bacon's Rebellion and its aftermath, weaving them into a dramatic tale that is part of the founding story of America.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Kids love stories about underdogs, and the American Revolution is among the most famous of these tales. Desperate to be an independent country free from Britain, the rebel colonists relied on their cunning wit and visionary leadership to win an impossible war. And then they faced the real hardship—creating a country out of a victorious but chaotic society. Using engaging text, hands-on activities, and links to primary sources, The American Revolution: Experience the Battle for Independence shows readers how rebel soldiers fought in horrific conditions while their families faced their own hardships for the sake of freedom. Students examine wartime propaganda to discover the truth about events leading up to the war, and engage in vibrant debate, strategic planning, and literary deconstruction to understand the official documents upon which America is founded. Building a marshmallow cannon and creating real colonial food are some of the projects that engage readers’ design skills. Essential questions require readers to activate their critical thinking skills to discover the truth about the most important moment in American history. The American Revolution meets Common Core State Standards for literacy in history and social studies; Guided Reading Levels and Lexile measurements indicate grade level and text complexity.

Book excerpt: The ten Egyptian plays in this collection offer grassroots perspectives on the jubilation, terror, hope and heartbreak of mass uprising. Collectively, they sketch events unfolding in Egypt from the twilight of Hosni Mubarak's regime to Abdel Fattah el-Sisi's ascendance to the presidency. A comprehensive introduction situates the plays within their social, political, and economic context, an in-depth translator's note delves into the challenges of translating Arabic for English-speaking audiences. Yasmeen Emam Shghaf's The Mirror and Hany Abdel Naser and Mohamed Mu'iz's They Say Dancing is a Sin explore how stigma and poverty silence women's voices. Sondos Shabayek and the BuSSy Company's documentary storytelling piece Tahrir Monologues and Said Solaiman's drama with movement The Window consider how collective mobilization empowers individuals to overcome personal fears. Ibrahim El-Husseini's symbolic ensemble drama Comedy of Sorrows and Ahmed Hassan Albana's melodrama In Search of Said Abu-Naga warn of the powerful forces waiting to hijack the revolution. Magdy El Hamzawy's satirical tragedy Report on Revolutionary Circumstances and Muhammed Marros's naturalistic three-hander The Visit reflect on how and why the revolutionary forces failed to dislodge the entrenched power structures. Ashraf Abdu's Coptic Church drama Sorrowful City foretells of a post-revolutionary deterioration into sectarian violence, and a stage adaptation of Khaled Al Khamissi's novel Taxi asks what has changed, if anything, for poor and working Egyptians in the years since Mubarak's overthrow.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: How the New Stone Age shaped our world Approximately 12,000 years ago, early humans in western Asia and Europe who had been itinerant foragers, subsisting on what food they could find, slowly began settling in one place. They farmed and domesticated animals, created new tools, built monuments, and began preserving and storing food. What brought about this shift? What difference did it make to the overall population? And what effects did this Neolithic Revolution have on generations to come? The Tale of the Axe explores the New Stone Age—named for the new types of stone tools that appeared at that time, specifically the ground stone axe—taking Britain as its focus. David Miles takes the reader on a journey through Neolithic Britain by way of its ancestors, geographical neighbors, and the species from which humans emerged before turning an eye to the future and those aspects of the Neolithic Revolution that live on today: farming, built communities, modern man, and much more.

Book excerpt: Caught Between the Impossible and the Forbidden As his world erupts in open warfare, Robert Harris’ Quaker faith guides him away from the use of violence for any purpose, even if the war could cost him the freedom to practice that faith. Finding a balancing point between this existential threat and the commands of his inner light, while struggling against the chance effects of war, Robert must also face the challenge of an implacable foe, determined to destroy him at any cost. He relies on the quiet guidance of his conscience to keep his family safe, and lead them to freedom. The Light is the New-Jersey volume in the Tales From a Revolution series, in which each standalone novel explores how the American War of Independence unfolds across a different colony. If you like stories such as The Crucible, or you’ve ever wondered how the Revolution affected even those who refused to take part directly, you’ll love The Light. Read The Light today and see how some of the most difficult battles during the American Revolution took place within peoples’ hearts.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Tales of the Revolution From the street came distant sounds of clattering droshkies and jingling tramway-bells, while in the courtyard far below harsh, angry voices could be heard. Yet up here all was deadly still. Suddenly the house-door banged, and the noise re-echoed throughout the building. Footsteps could be heard. Some one was coming upstairs at a great rate, hurrying round each landing, and taking two stairs at a time. As the steps reached the last landing and a figure was about to dash past the dim window the man outside the door suddenly moved towards it. Who's there cried the newcomer in a tone that betrayed more than mere astonishment. Is there a room to let, here Perhaps you may know asked the man at the door, sharply and decisively. Oh! A room I really can't say. Yes, I believe there is. You'd better ring. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
