Book excerpt: An extraordinary novel of love, friendship, and betrayal for admirers of Abraham Verghese and Edwidge Danticat Eleanor Morse’s rich and intimate portrait of Botswana, and of three people whose intertwined lives are at once tragic and remarkable, is an absorbing and deeply moving story. In apartheid South Africa in 1977, medical student Isaac Muthethe is forced to flee his country after witnessing a friend murdered by white members of the South African Defense Force. He is smuggled into Botswana, where he is hired as a gardener by a young American woman, Alice Mendelssohn, who has abandoned her Ph.D. studies to follow her husband to Africa. When Isaac goes missing and Alice goes searching for him, what she finds will change her life and inextricably bind her to this sunburned, beautiful land. Like the African terrain that Alice loves, Morse’s novel is alternately austere and lush, spare and lyrical. She is a writer of great and wide-ranging gifts.

Book Synopsis Black Flags, Blue Waters: The Epic History of America's Most Notorious Pirates by : Eric Jay Dolin
Download or read book Black Flags, Blue Waters: The Epic History of America's Most Notorious Pirates written by Eric Jay Dolin and published by Liveright Publishing. This book was released on 2018-09-18 with total page 427 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: With surprising tales of vicious mutineers, imperial riches, and high-seas intrigue, Black Flags, Blue Waters is “rumbustious enough for the adventure-hungry” (Peter Lewis, San Francisco Chronicle). Set against the backdrop of the Age of Exploration, Black Flags, Blue Waters reveals the surprising history of American piracy’s “Golden Age” - spanning the late 1600s through the early 1700s - when lawless pirates plied the coastal waters of North America and beyond. “Deftly blending scholarship and drama” (Richard Zacks), best-selling author Eric Jay Dolin illustrates how American colonists at first supported these outrageous pirates in an early display of solidarity against the Crown, and then violently opposed them. Through engrossing episodes of roguish glamour and extreme brutality, Dolin depicts the star pirates of this period, among them the towering Blackbeard, the ill-fated Captain Kidd, and sadistic Edward Low, who delighted in torturing his prey. Upending popular misconceptions and cartoonish stereotypes, Black Flags, Blue Waters is a “tour de force history” (Michael Pierce, Midwestern Rewind) of the seafaring outlaws whose raids reflect the precarious nature of American colonial life.

Book excerpt: Collects: Retribution Falls, The Black Lung Captain, The Iron Jackal, The Ace of Skulls Frey is the captain of the Ketty Jay, leader of a small, highly dysfunctional band of layabouts. An inveterate womaniser and rogue, he and his gang make a living on the wrong side of the law, avoiding the heavily armed flying frigates of the Coalition Navy. With their trio of ragged fighter craft they run contraband, rob airships and generally make a nuisance of themselves. In Retribution Falls, a hot tip on a cargo freighter loaded with valuables seems like a great prospect for an easy heist and a fast buck. Until the heist goes wrong, and the freighter explodes. Suddenly Frey isn't just a nuisance anymore - he's public enemy number one, with the Coalition Navy on his tail and contractors hired to take him down. Times are tough for the crew in The Black Lung Captain, Enter Captain Grist. He's heard about a crashed aircraft laden with the treasures of a lost civilisation, and he needs Frey's help to get it. There's only one problem. The craft is lying in the trackless heart of a remote island, populated by giant beasts and subhuman monsters. The Iron Jackal takes them deep into the desert heart of Samarla, the land of their ancient enemies. To a place where the secrets of the past lie in wait for the unwary. Secrets that might very well cost Frey everything. The Ace of Skulls: the last stand of the Ketty Jay. They've been shot down, set up, double-crossed and ripped off. They've stolen priceless treasures, destroyed a ten-thousand-year-old Azryx city and sort-of-accidentally blew up the son of the Archduke. Now they've gone and started a civil war. This time, they're really in trouble.

Download or read book Parrot Island written by Marty Baker and published by . This book was released on 2020-08-03 with total page 52 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Parrot Island: The Pirate Adventures is a children's/YA book that has a slightly different take than any other pirate book. Our story began with a simple question: Where do pirates actually get their parrots? Well, after digging through the secret archives of the Caribbean pirates, we found a clue. There is a small island shrouded in mystery that is home to parrots trained to be proper pirates' parrots. It's a very cinematic story that follows the adventures of Gabe, the son of Blackbeard's parrot who is chosen by the notorious pirate Sykes to join the crew of the Rusty Cutlass. Joined by his best friend Ponce, a portly grey parrot, the two parrots meet Bilge, a ship-smart rat who helps them during their adventures on the high seas. We feel this a genre-bending book in the plethora of Pirate Books for children. None that we could find is told from the parrot's perspective in such a fun and adventure filled way and includes two strong female characters- a woman pirate named Pearl and her parrot Fabiola. It's not about plunder and treasure, but understanding how to work together as a team and overcome big obstacles.
