  On January 2, 1678, a fleet of French ships sank off the Venezuelan coast. This proved disastrous for French naval power in the region, and sparked the rise of a golden age of piracy. 
   
  Tracing the lives of fabled pirates like the Chevalier de Grammont, Nikolaas Van Hoorn, Thomas Paine, and Jean Comte d'Estrées, The Lost Fleet portrays a dark age, when the outcasts of European society formed a democracy of buccaneers, settling on a string of islands off the African coast. From there, the pirates haunted the world's oceans, wreaking havoc on the settlements along the Spanish mainland and—often enlisted by French and English governments—sacking ships, ports, and coastal towns. 
   
  More than three hundred years later, writer, explorer, and deep-sea diver Barry Clifford follows the pirates' destructive wake back to Venezuela. With the help of a lost map, drawn by the captain of the lost French fleet, Clifford locates the site of the disaster and wreckage of the once-mighty armada.

  "An invaluable assessment of Lewis's reception in the United States, offering important insights into both Lewis's significance and the distinctives of the American religious mind." – Alister McGrath, Oxford University
  Perhaps no other literary figure has transformed the American religious landscape in recent history as much as C. S. Lewis. Even before the international publication and incredible success of his fictional works such as The Chronicles of Narnia or apologetic works like Mere Christianity, Lewis was already being read "across the pond" in America. But who exactly was reading his work? And how was he received?
  With fresh research and shrewd analysis, this volumeby noted historian Mark A. Noll considers the surprising reception of Lewis among Roman Catholic, mainline Protestant, and evangelical readers to see how early readings of the Oxford don shaped his later influence.

  Insatiably Mine - About...

  This is a book about the type of people who survive through destroying other people. 
  According to the author, we all do our best to make our way through life, and we are all forced to make sense of our own lives. In that respect, there is only one type of human being. You see, none of us really knows why we were born, and the people who have raised us, such as parents and teachers, are equally oblivious. 
  Getting through life involves a lot of pain and in our life journey, we will experience various kinds of pain. The pain has different origins, but it mainly has to do with fear and feelings of separation and isolation. 
  Some people have experienced these emotions to the degree that they have learnt to get through life by sucking the life force out of others; insatiably. The author shares his understanding of the destructive behaviour that comes along with these people. To do this in a balanced manner, the author moves between different vantage points; the emphatic, the accepting and the brutal. 
  This might sound strange, but even the most horrible tyrants are tyrants because they deep down crave to be loved. Reading this book is enlightening for every searching human being. The book can be read for self-development and personal growth, and it can be read to understand more about your own encounters with destructive people. It can help you understand interactions in family situations, childcare, work situations, politics and community life.
