Book excerpt: 1814, off the Durham coast, near the village of Hartlepool, a war-ship in the Napoleonic fleet founders during a storm and sinks. At day-break, fishermen discover a survivor: a monkey dressed in full military regalia, the mascot. The good people of Hartlepool despise all Frenchmen, though they have never seen one in the flesh. Nor have they ever see a monkey. But this brutish, bestial castaway tallies with the impression they have of the enemy, and the ape is court-martialled. Inspired by this famous legend, this is a tragi-comic fable of war and jingoism.

Book excerpt: When Simon Legris, a physician from Paris, returns from an expedition to Africa, he brings home a monkey that understands human speech and names him Jacques LeSinge. Utterly devoted to him, Jacques becomes his servant. While in the service of an ailing marquis, Legris receives some shattering hews -Jacques has been accused of molesting the aristocrat's wife and has been dismissed in disgrace. After an audacious French Revolutionary plot goes wrong, Jacques stands in the dock in Hartlepool accused of espionage. Warrens, a lowly 'one-guinea brief' barrister, stands to defend him. In the greatest challenge of his career, he mounts a defence that asks: what makes a man? A demonically witty digest of all things eighteenth-century, this is an eccentric and hugely entertaining début.

Download or read book A Crofter's Tale written by Gareth Mcartur and published by CreateSpace. This book was released on 2014-03-01 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: There has been much written and spoken about the legend of The Hartlepool Monkey. Legend has it that one stormy night, a french cargo ship was stranded just off the Hartlepool headland. Such was the ferocity of the storm that the ship quickly broke up and sank, killing all souls on board. All that is except one. Locals looking for survivors came across a monkey, dressed in miniature French sailor uniform. It was alive. Because of the ongoing battle with Napoleon's forces, the locals (Crofters) interrogated the beast. Unable to understand it's responses they quickly assumed the beast to be a French spy. He was immediately tried and sentenced to death. But was it a monkey? or was it a 'monkey' - the term given to young boys whose duties on board an eighteenth century sailing vessel included loading gunpowder weaponry and shinning up the mast to the crow's nest to act as lookout? Either way, whatever it was, the good people of Hartlepool in the North East of England, saw fit to hang it for being a French spy. This book looks to tell the real story behind the legend and reveals for the first time how the 'monkey' came to be washed up on the shores of the Hartlepool headland and the sinister purpose behind his desperate, but futile, fight for survival.

This book was released on 2008-06-02 with total page 191 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: I took some good shots from him and then I opened up my arsenal and we traded toe to toe. I had a burning desire in me to win and started to get him on the back foot, when I put him down with my right hand. He got up and took the count and the ref waved us to continue. I went after him like a predator, and was all over him, lefts and rights smashing into his head. The crowd loved it...To the unsuspecting, Richy Horsley could just be an unassuming thirty-something character. Yet in reality, Crazy Horse, as he is better known, is part of the underbelly of the hardman scene. Boxer, street fighter and bouncer, there are few men tougher. So tough is he that he has even accepted a challenge from Britain's most dangerous prisoner, Charles Bronson, to be his first boxing opponent on Bronson's eventual release.Richy did not become one of the staunchest fighters in the land without his fair share of turmoil. Having lost his father at an early age, he channelled his anger through his fists as he became embroiled in run-ins with the law. It was boxing that saw him turn his rage into something more positive and his anger was used on his opponents in the ring.A true warrior in heart and mind, Richy's name is one to be feared and respected. His story shows that even in the face of overwhelming odds, it is possible to become a real champion.
