Bermuda Bound: From London to Paradise by P. M. Lane (39 Reviews)    Price verified 23 minutes ago

Forget a year in Provence, try living on a tiny island in the middle of the Atlantic Ocean for four years. Bermuda Bound is a personal account of living and working on the beautiful island of Bermuda. The book relates encounters with modern day pirates, sea monsters, raging Atlantic storms, colourful local characters and suicidal tourists, against a remote background of incredible beauty in the western Atlantic. Gone are grey skies, wintry nights and miserable people to be replaced by blue skies, exquisite colonial architecture, colourful characters and tall swaying palm trees. Bermuda with its four hundred year history of pirates, smugglers, rum runners and ship wrecks is England's oldest colonial outpost, a sub-tropical haven where the modern world comes face to face with old ways and customs to form a unique blend of history, tradition and development, which is the very essence of Bermuda.

The Experience of Alien Royal Servants in Thirteenth-Century England by Michael Ray (3 Reviews)    Price verified 5 hours ago

At the beginning of the thirteenth century, King John lost his Norman and Angevin lands to the King of France. The Anglo-Norman nobility had to choose which King to support and accept the loss of their lands under the rule of the King they had disowned. However, John continued to rely on his trusted Normans as soldiers and officials, many of whom were instrumental in preventing the son of the King of France from seizing the throne, first from John, and after his death in 1216 from his son Henry III. Despite their service to the crown, many of these aliens were disenfranchised during Henry's minority as the English baronage and clergy whipped up hostility against them. Henry later encouraged the arrival of two further groups of aliens into England, the Savoyards and Poitevins, who were relatives of his mother and wife. He lavished patronage on them as a way to consolidate his power both at home and abroad. In 1263 Simon de Montfort revived hostility against aliens in his war against ...

The Staircase of Life: The Story of the Origin and Evolution of Life and Humankind by Gerard Alexander Willighagen (9 Reviews)    Price verified 5 hours ago

Even though we are all different in our own ways, we all have an underlying thread in common: our evolution, our history. However, only roughly 0.0001% of the Earth's whole history has been occupied by human beings with behaviorally contemporary traits. We are, in fact, right at the start of everything. Yet, in order to survive even for such a short period of time, a seemingly unending line of fortunate events was necessary. But what were these fortunate events? How did Homo sapiens get here after many billion years and virtually infinite evolutionary crossroads? How did humankind ultimately conquer the world? And how did life emerge in the first place? In this epic and compelling story, Gerard Alexander Willighagen strives to answer these and many more intriguing questions by taking you through space and time to explore the origins of life, the evolution and rise of Homo sapiens, the dawn and development of civilization, and the emergence and formation of the modern world we know ...

The History of Eternity by James E. Winder (7 Reviews)    Price verified 10 hours ago

You cannot help but wonder what and why you are. The History of Eternity is a book that again and again answers these questions, as it celebrates the tragic joy of wonder at the enigma of your existence. There will always be a clamoring after elusive fact. There will always be a hankering for some durable theory that will explain the fact. There will always be an inability to match the one wholly with the other. Because something is always left out, there will always persist a stubbornly invisible and intractable remainder. And this remainder, this dark matter behind every thought, behind every desire, behind every joy, behind every sorrow, will continue to populate your universe with wonder.
