Download or read book The Empire Makers written by Hume Nesbit and published by DigiCat. This book was released on 2022-11-21 with total page 247 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "The Empire Makers" is a novel by James Nisbet, popular for his romance, colonial adventure, and crime. As a writer, Nisbet traveled extensively to British colonies and based his works on real-life experiences. He was a strong proponent of British Imperialism and saw the new lands as the "ultimate civilization of ignorant savages," which needed to be emancipated and enlightened. Being inspired by the work of Cecil Rhodes, the Prime Minister of the Cape Colony who colonized the southern African territory of Rhodesia (now Zimbabwe and Zambia), Nisbet wrote this novel. It describes the adventures of three young men who went out to South Africa. The protagonists have different adventures, including troubles with the government, discovering ancient nations, and getting into a local war.

Download or read book Empire Maker written by Kenneth N. Owens and published by University of Washington Press. This book was released on 2016-04-05 with total page 360 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A native of northern Russia, Alexander Baranov was a middle-aged merchant trader with no prior experience in the fur trade when, in 1790, he arrived in North America to assume command over Russia’s highly profitable sea otter business. With the title of chief manager, he strengthened his leadership role after the formation of the Russian American Company in 1799. An adventuresome, dynamic, and charismatic leader, he proved to be something of a commercial genius in Alaska, making huge profits for company partners and shareholders in Irkutsk and St. Petersburg while receiving scandalously little support from the homeland. Baranov receives long overdue attention in Kenneth Owens’s Empire Maker, the first scholarly biography of Russian America’s virtual imperial viceroy. His eventful life included shipwrecks, battles with Native forces, clashes with rival traders and Russian Orthodox missionaries, and an enduring marriage to a Kodiak Alutiiq woman with whom he had two children. In the process, the book reveals maritime Alaska and northern California during the Baranov era as fascinating cultural borderlands, where Russian, English, Spanish, and New England Yankee traders and indigenous peoples formed complex commercial, political, and domestic relationships that continue to influence these regions today.

Book Synopsis The Empire Strikes Back? by : Andrew S. Thompson
Download or read book The Empire Strikes Back? written by Andrew S. Thompson and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2014-09-11 with total page 396 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: `The Empire Strikes Back' will inject the empire back into the domestic history of modern Britain. In the nineteenth century and for much of the twentieth century, Britain's empire was so large that it was truly the global superpower. Much of Africa, Asia and America had been subsumed. Britannia's tentacles had stretched both wide and deep. Culture, Religion, Health, Sexuality, Law and Order were all impacted in the dominated countries. `The Empire Strikes Back' shows how the dependent states were subsumed and then hit back, affecting in turn England itself.
