Download or read book Dynamite, Treason and Plot written by Simon Webb and published by The History Press. This book was released on 2011-11-30 with total page 185 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the years since the 7/7 attacks on the London transport system, many people in Britain seem to have become convinced that we live in uniquely dangerous times and that the threat from terrorism has never been greater. In fact, terrorist attacks have been a feature of life in London for many years. The worst terrorist bombing in the capital before 7/7 took place in 1867, when twelve people were killed in an explosion in Clerkenwell. The first person to be killed by a bombing on the Tube died in 1897. From the deadly Fenian campaign against high-profile targets in the capital to the Anarchist bombing of the Royal Observatory at Greenwich, late nineteenth- and early twentieth-century London saw a constant succession of terrorist threats. This book details the emergence of modern terrorism, a phenomenon which has its roots in Victorian London.

Book excerpt: NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • “One of George’s best . . . insightful, tense, and compassionate.”—Entertainment Weekly Balford-le-Nez is a dying seaside town on the coast of Essex. But when a member of the town’s small but growing Asian community is found murdered near its beach, the sleepy town ignites. Intrigued by the involvement of her London neighbor—Taymullah Azhar—in what appears to be a growing racial conflagration, Detective Sergeant Barbara Havers arranges to have herself assigned to the investigation. Setting out on her own, this is one case Havers will have to solve without her longtime partner, Detective Inspector Thomas Lynley— and it’s one of the toughest she’s ever encountered. For Havers must probe not only the mind of a murderer and her emotional response to a case unsettlingly close to her own heart, but also the terrible price people pay for deceiving others . . . and themselves. Praise for Deception on His Mind “So much fun to read, it’s criminal.”—Newsday “It’s tough to resist the pull of George’s storytelling once hooked.”—USA Today “Falls smartly into place in [George’s] literate, impassioned series, one of today’s best.”—Chicago Tribune “Fascinating . . . there are wrenching stories here, and George conveys them with exceptional grace.”—People
Book Synopsis The Oath Book, Or Red Parchment Book of Colchester (Classic Reprint) by : W. Gurney Benham
Download or read book The Oath Book, Or Red Parchment Book of Colchester (Classic Reprint) written by W. Gurney Benham and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2016-10-03 with total page 336 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Oath Book, or Red Parchment Book of Colchester There is singularly little light on general history. A list of Christian Kings of England is given (pp. 25 full of ecclesiastical fiction and inaccuracy. There is also the curious 14th century chronicle of the ever famous King Coel (pp. 27 with much strange medieval embroidery about it. But though the official records are reticent as to the more important incidents of national history, we can recognise the fact that Colchester was often - if not always - in sympathy with revolution. At an early period lollardry was existent in the borough (vide Red Paper Book, pp. 52 and One may even suspect some slight indication of friendly interest in Wat Tyler's rebellion. The reformation of religion was certainly welcomed. Probably no town in England had a larger proportion of Marian martyrs. It was anti - Royalist in the Civil War, though it had the curious fate of standing a siege against the Parliament army and suffering severely in consequence. In 1656 John Evelyn wrote of Colchester as a ragged and factious town, swarming with sectaries. This was from Evelyn's point of view. Looking back at the town's history, we need not be surprised that its own remarkable independence had fostered a spirit of independence in its free citizens. But so far as the Red Parchment Book is concerned there is not much evidence of the feeling of Colchester in periods of national excitement. The people may have been turbulent, but the rulers were careful burgesses. Their policy would seem to have been rather that of the Vicar of Bray - though with more honourable ambition - and whatsoever King might reign, their main object was to be masters in their own house.
