The Claimant: Butcher or Baronet? by Paul Terry (3 Reviews)    Price verified 4 hours ago

It's 1866 and from the dusty frontier town of Wagga Wagga comes a man who sets Victorian Britain alight - the likes of which have never been seen before or since. It's a tale so preposterous that it's still debated today. Tom Castro - or was he Arthur Orton? - an obese, toothless butcher who lives in a slab hut, suddenly comes forward and claims to be Roger Tichborne, the rightful Baronet of Tichborne Park, Hampshire, and head of one of England's oldest noble families. Incredibly, Roger's mother agrees. So sets in motion a journey that takes our Claimant on a rollercoaster ride of fame, glory, prison and penury, unleashes a 12th century curse, disturbs Queen Victoria, delights Mark Twain, immortalises our Claimant in wax at Madame Tussaud's, and strikes at the very heart of the English class system. And, at the end of a tumultuous life, a strange posthumous victory to the Claimant leads some to still ask - was he Roger Tichborne, a baronet, or Arthur Orton, a butcher?

The Opinionated Spectator: Born to be Muslim by Pat Wary (3 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

The Islamic way of life is not confined to only religious practices, which makes its scope knitted into all disciplines of contemporary academia. The content of this moral exhortation is an audacious attempt to reunite all the secular fragments of our knowledge back to their divine roots.

Stopping Napoleon : War and intrigue in the Mediterranean by Tom Pocock (94 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

Following the Battle of Trafalgar, Britain had one objective: stopping Napoleon at all costs... After his defeat by Nelson at Trafalgar, Napoleon knew he could never invade England. Many thought he would try to take over the vast, crumbling Ottoman Empire, return to Egypt and even march on India. So the British concentrated on the Mediterranean: for a decade it became the scene of dangers, real or imagined, and of battles both on land and at sea. All was dictated by a fierce determination to stop Napoleon. Stopping Napoleon is a fast-paced, beautifully written account that should be read by all aficionados of the age of Nelson and Napoleon. Praise for Tom Pocock: 'Pocock has restored this neglected campaign to its true importance in this lively and important book' - Sunday Times 'Compendiously detailed, expert analysis...

Bloody Ground: Black Rifles in Korea by John Holway (24 Reviews)    Price verified one hour ago

Korea is "the forgotten war." But to those who fought in it, it was the "unforgettable war." If the names of all those killed were put on a wall, it would be larger than the Vietnam Wall. And Korea lasted only three years, Vietnam about ten. The agony of the winter of 1950-51 is an epic to compare with Valley Forge and the Bulge. Korea was also our last segregated war. This is the story of the black 24th Infantry Regiment, told in the words of the men themselves. Like all black troops since the Civil War, they were reviled by whites and their own commander for "bugging out" - running before the enemy. The charge can still be read in the Army's own official histories. Yet the 24th left more blood on the field than their white comrades - if they did bug out, they must have been running the wrong way. It's a good thing we weren't with Custer," one black GI muttered - "they'd have blamed the whole thing on us." The 24th won the first battle of the war, won its division's first Medal ...
