Book excerpt: A dazzling historical novel set during England's War of the Roses- the story of the courageous Anne Neville, future wife of Richard III, who comes of age in a time of chaos... Anne Neville, daughter of the powerful Earl of Warwick, grows up during the War of the Roses, a time when kings and queens are made and destroyed in an on-going battle for the ultimate prize: the throne of England. As a child Anne falls in love with the ambitious, proud Richard of Gloucester, third son of the House of York. But when her father is branded a traitor, her family must flee to exile in France. As Anne matures into a beautiful, poised woman, skillfully navigating the treacherous royal court of Margaret of Anjou, she secretly longs for Richard, who has become a great man under his brother's rule. But as their families scheme for power, Anne must protect her heart from betrayals on both sides-and from the man she has always loved, and cannot bring herself to trust.

Download or read book The Hindu Widow written by Vatsala Mehta and published by Outskirts Press. This book was released on 2024-08-30 with total page 256 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Beginning with the broad theme of the Hindu widow and narrowing it down to Gujarati widows, Vatsala Mehta has made a time-sweep through three millennia of Indian social history starting with the Vedas. This historical coverage and analysis of the status of contemporary widow is set up in relation to ancient legalistic pronouncements, caste rules and practices among Gujarati Hindus, and Jains to a minor extent. The assessment ends with the passage of the post-independence Hindu Code Bill partially fulfilling the dreams of social reformers in India in the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. This book is based on her MA thesis, The Hindu Widow with Special Reference to Gujarat, submitted to the Department of Sociology of the University of Bombay (Mumbai) in 1956. The work purports to suggest a link between post-Vedic Hindu jurisprudence, especially in matters of succession and inheritance, the custom of child marriage, widowhood among young women and proscription of widow remarriage. These also led to the diabolical practice of widow self-immolation, or sati, which became widespread especially in certain parts of India. The well-rounded, if brief, encapsulation of major social issues associated with Gujarati Hindu widowhood provides a basis for future examinations along similar lines.
Book Synopsis P-61 Black Widow Units of World War 2 by : Warren Thompson
Download or read book P-61 Black Widow Units of World War 2 written by Warren Thompson and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2012-11-20 with total page 100 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first aircraft to be purposely designed as a radar-equipped nightfighter, Northrop's P-61 Black Widow was heavily influenced by early RAF combat experience with radar-equipped aircraft in 1940/41. Built essentially around the bulky Radiation Laboratory SCR-720 radar, which was mounted in the aircraft's nose, the P-61 proved to be the largest fighter ever produced for frontline service by the USAAF. Twin-engined and twin-boomed, the Black Widow was armed with a dorsal barbette of four 0.50-in Browning machine guns and two ventrally-mounted 20 mm cannon. This volume features all the frontline users of the mighty P-61, and includes many first-hand accounts from pilots and gunners who saw action in the Pacific, Mediterranean and Western Europe.
Book Synopsis Hindu Widow Marriage by : Ishvarchandra Vidyasagar
Download or read book Hindu Widow Marriage written by Ishvarchandra Vidyasagar and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2011-11-22 with total page 272 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Before the passage of the Hindu Widow's Re-marriage Act of 1856, Hindu tradition required a woman to live as a virtual outcast after her husband's death. Widows were expected to shave their heads, discard their jewelry, live in seclusion, and undergo regular acts of penance. Ishvarchandra Vidyasagar was the first Indian intellectual to successfully argue against these strictures. A Sanskrit scholar and passionate social reformer, Vidyasagar was a leading proponent of widow marriage in colonial India, urging his contemporaries to reject a ban that caused countless women to suffer needlessly. Vidyasagar's brilliant strategy paired a rereading of Hindu scripture with an emotional plea on behalf of the widow, resulting in an organic reimagining of Hindu law and custom. Vidyasagar made his case through the two-part publication Hindu Widow Marriage, a tour de force of logic, erudition, and humanitarian rhetoric. In this new translation, Brian A. Hatcher makes available in English for the first time the entire text of one of the most important nineteenth-century treatises on Indian social reform. An expert on Vidyasagar, Hinduism, and colonial Bengal, Hatcher enhances the original treatise with a substantial introduction describing Vidyasagar's multifaceted career, as well as the history of colonial debates on widow marriage. He innovatively interprets the significance of Hindu Widow Marriage within modern Indian intellectual history by situating the text in relation to indigenous commentarial practices. Finally, Hatcher increases the accessibility of the text by providing an overview of basic Hindu categories for first-time readers, a glossary of technical vocabulary, and an extensive bibliography.

Where a woman can thumb her nose at rules and care little for convention, and yet somehow, unexpectedly and most reluctantly, find love. To Wed The Widow A man with a Future, the Honorable George Sinclair would rather poke his eye out than take his place beside his brother and learn How To Be An Earl. But when an earl orders, a brother obeys. And when an earl tries to make his brother steady and responsible and old and gray, well... it just might kill them both. A woman with a Past, Lady Haywood is a scandalous distraction no honorable gentleman can ignore. Especially one who's just been told that his very happy life is changing irrevocably to the boring. But even if a scandalous distraction is what George wants, what he needs is a wife. A virgin wife. A scandal-less wife... The earl would be the first to say that his brother has always had a problem choosing what he needs over what he wants. Lady Haywood would say that very few women who have buried five husbands would bother with a sixth. And George would say... why, this sounds like fine fun! regency romance, Victorian romance, witty historical romance
