The Line Upon a Wind: An Intimate History of the Last and

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Mostert, Noel, PUBLISHER: Vintage, An Intimate History of the Last and Greatest War Fought at Sea Under Sail: . Following his acclaimed Frontiers, Noel Mostert's new book chronicles the first true "world war." In February , France declared war on Britain and Holland. The Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars that raged for the next twenty-two years saw European powers manoeuvering for mercantile and political advantage in a complex and ever-changing web of alliances and coalitions. By , the world was a different place; age-old certainties were shattered, established dynasties and kingdoms overthrown, the United States emerged as a world power, and a new age was dawning. This was to be the longest, hardest and cruelest war ever fought at sea, on a scale comparable only with the Second World War. Methods of battle under sail, little changed for centuries, would be forced to adapt at an unprecedented pace that brought with it the fearsome power of rockets, torpedoes and submarines. The Line Upon a Wind is also the story of the daily lives of the sailors on board the fighting ships, the blood and guts ferocity of engagement in an age of gentility, the struggle of ships' surgeons to repair broken bodies and the daily struggle to keep the men fed and free of disease. It is a story of ordinary men and extraordinary bravery. The Great War, as it was known to contemporaries, spanned generations and continents. Noel Mostert has achieved a work of unparalleled research, rousing descriptions and illuminating analysis -- maritime history at its very best. "From the Hardcover edition." Buy Now

The Return of the Feminine: Honoring the Cycles of Nature

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Orleane, Dr Rebecca, PUBLISHER: Authorhouse, Women are Lifegivers who understand the feminine because cycles of life and death run in our blood. All things in Nature move in cycles, yet women's cycles have been ignored, dismissed, or pathologized, affecting our place in society and preventing us from truly being who we are. Premenstrual Syndrome, a culturally induced condition resulting from a suppression of women's emotional vision, has led us to stop listening to the wisdom of our own cycles, and caused us to approach Menopause in a welter of confusion. This boo k explores the cycles that define our lives, offers ways to heal our relationships, and beckons us to return to Nature. It is time to awaken to the value and power inherent in another way of seeing the world, through the eyes of feminine vision. It is time to return to the feminine and heal our relationships through living in harmony with Nature. "This rich timely work clearly rises from the depths of a woman's soul. It is, indeed, an invitation into Life's Mystery. This work is a "must" for all those who seek the healing of the human condition." -Kenneth Hamilton, M.D., author of The Circle of the Soul "The minute I started reading this book, I got chills. My body said a big "yes" to this information. Yours will too " -Christiane Northrup, MD, author of Mother-Daughter Wisdom, The Wisdom of Menopause, and Women's Bodies, Women's Wisdom "Rebecca Orleane is a talented researcher and writer with a feel for people and their lives. I strongly encourage you to consider her book. Here is a strong, unusual, and inspiring study valuable for many. Rebecca helps open magic to us." -Ruth Richards, M.D., Ph.D., author of Everyday Creativity "Dr. Orleane writes with passion and conviction. The Return of the Feminine is an antidote for the stress and depression so prevalent in today's tattered cultures." -Stanley Krippner, Ph.D. co-author, Extraordinary Dreams and How to Work with Them

Woven into its texture are the history of the Early Church, the dispersal of the Germanic peoples, the rise of Islam, the Dark Ages of Europe and the Crusades, all of which Gibbon saw as elements in a continuous process of change and development.

The Japanese Consumer: An Alternative Economic History of

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Francks, Penelope, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, By the late twentieth century, Japanese people were renowned as the world's most avid and knowledgeable consumers of fashion, luxury and quality, while the goods that embodied their tastes and lifestyle were becoming a part of global culture. Penelope Francks' book offers an alternative account of Japan's modern economic history from the perspective of the consumer. Tracing Japan's economy from the eighteenth century to the present, she shows how history has conditioned what Japanese people consume and compares their experiences with those of Europe and North America. In so doing the author presents a lucid and informed account of everyday life in Japan, exploring what people eat, how they dress, the household goods they acquire, and their preferred shopping and leisure activities. This beautifully illustrated book succeeds in making economic history palatable and entertaining. It will be a treat for students and all those interested in Japanese society and culture.
