Book Synopsis Samuel Pepys and the Strange Wrecking of the Gloucester by : Nigel Pickford
Download or read book Samuel Pepys and the Strange Wrecking of the Gloucester written by Nigel Pickford and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2023-02-07 with total page 227 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A true story of royal intrigue—with famed diarist Samuel Pepys as the main protagonist—as a fatal shipwreck on the shores of Restoration Britain sparks a mystery that now may finally be solved. In 1682, Charles II invited his scandalous younger brother, James, Duke of York, to return from exile and take his rightful place as heir to the throne. To celebrate, the future king set sail in a fleet of eight ships destined for Edinburgh, where he would reunite with his young pregnant wife. Yet disaster struck en route, somewhere off the Norfolk coast. The royal frigate carrying James and his entourage sank, causing some two hundred sailors and courtiers to perish. The diarist Samuel Pepys had been asked to sail with James but refused the invitation, preferring to travel in one of the other ships. Why? What did he know that others did not? Religious and political tensions were rife in the years leading up to the wreck of the Gloucester. James was a Catholic, as was his wife, and there was a large constituency who wished them dead. Plots and conspiracies abounded. The Royal Navy was itself in disarray, badly equipped and poorly organised. Could someone on board be to blame for the sinking, either from malice or incompetence? Nigel Pickford’s compelling account of the catastrophe draws on a richness of historical material including letters, diaries and ships’ logs, revealing for the first time the full drama and tragic consequences of a shipwreck that shook Restoration Britain.
Book Synopsis Gloucester & Newbury, 1643 by : Jon Day
Download or read book Gloucester & Newbury, 1643 written by Jon Day and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2007-09-20 with total page 366 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The campaign that led to the first Battle of Newbury in 1643 represents a vital phase in the English Civil War, yet rarely has it received the attention it deserves. In this compelling and meticulously researched new study, Jon Day shows how the campaign was critical to the outcome of the war and the defeat of Charles I. The late summer 1643 was the military high tide for the king and his armies, yet within two months the opportunity had been squandered. The Royalists failed first to take the Parliamentarian stronghold of Gloucester and then to defeat the Earl of Essex's army at Newbury. If the Civil War had a tipping point, this was surely it.

As the son, brother, and uncle of English kings, Humphrey played a pivotal role in the political and cultural landscape of medieval England. A skilled soldier and military strategist, he fought in the Hundred Years' War and acted as Lord Protector of England during the minority of his nephew, Henry VI. But Humphrey was also a controversial figure, known for his reckless behavior and fractious personality.

Download or read book The Tragic Sinking of Gloucester's Patriot written by Captain W. Russell Webster and published by Arcadia Publishing. This book was released on 2022-05-23 with total page 144 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: On the evening of January 2, 2009, Captain Matteo Russo and crewman John Orlando got underway aboard the fifty-four-foot fishing vessel Patriot, from the iconic State Pier in Gloucester, Massachusetts, bound for nearby fishing grounds in search of cod. They never returned. What happened less than eight hours later on that bitter and dark winter early morning that caused the Patriot to sink? Why did the Coast Guard deliberate more than two hours before launching a rescue mission? Using official documents, numerous interviews and insight as a search and rescue commander, maritime historian Captain W. Russell Webster, USCG (Ret.), expertly documents the tragedy of the Patriot, with startling findings. He deftly explores the condition of "normalcy bias" linked to this heartbreaking case, which can cause people--including Coast Guard personnel--to deny and sometimes over-deliberate threats to human life.
