Beschreibung

In "The Pirates Own Book," Charles Ellms presents a captivating anthology that delves into the adventurous and often treacherous world of piracy during the Golden Age. Written in a richly descriptive prose style that blends a sense of thrilling immediacy with historical narrative, the book compiles firsthand accounts, tales of daring escapades, and the notorious lives of pirates such as Blackbeard and Captain Kidd. Ellms' work mirrors the era's fascination with maritime lawlessness, providing a glimpse into the societal and economic forces that drove men to take to the seas in pursuit of fortune and freedom. Charles Ellms, an author deeply fascinated by maritime history and the romanticized persona of pirates, draws from various sources, including old seafaring legends and pirate trials, to construct an engaging portrayal that resonates with both historical accuracy and sensationalism. His keen interest in the subject stems from a time when piracy captured the popular imagination, and he sought to shed light on the complexities of these figures rather than reduce them to mere caricatures. This book is a must-read for anyone intrigued by the enigmatic lives of pirates and their enduring legacy in popular culture. Ellms's thorough research and gripping storytelling make "The Pirates Own Book" an essential addition to the library of history buffs and adventure seekers alike, inviting readers to immerse themselves in the high seas and the harsh realities of pirate life.

Anarchism and Other Essays

Emma Goldman

"Goldman was an admirer of Nietzsche and in many ways represents a model of a superior individual who is capable of rising above the herd instincts of the masses and embracing confrontation with danger. She never hesitated to countenance both the ire of public authorities and the scorn of public opinion. As contemporary anarchists have fallen into the mundane habit of politically correct conformity, a full examination of Goldman's thought suggests the need for a new anarchism that reflects the martial spirit of which Goldman was an exemplary.  Emma Goldman is often depicted in current academic discourse, and the "Left" in particular, as a role model for feminists and a champion of the proletariat. Keith Preston however in reviewing each chapter of Goldman's most famous work "Anarchism and Other Essays" reveals that Emma Goldman often expressed ideas which many of her present day admirers will find surprising and unsettling. He highlights the fact that Emma Goldman distrusted the proletariat, wrote disdainfully of the early feminists who were her contemporaries, and expressed scepticism of women's suffrage."

Partition of Ireland - A...

Kelly Mass

The Federal government of the U.K. of Great Britain and Ireland segmented Ireland into 2 independent polities: Northern Ireland and Southern Ireland. The Federal Government of Ireland Act 1920 was handed down May third, 1921. Both parts were to stay inside the UK, and the Act included arrangements for supreme reunification. 
Northern Ireland was established with a devolved federal government and stayed a part of the U.K. Most occupants of Southern Ireland didn't recognize the self-proclaimed Irish Republic, choosing to recognize the larger Northern Ireland. The area of Southern Ireland withdrew from the U.K. and ended up being the Irish Free State, which is today the Republic of Ireland, following the Anglo-Irish Treaty. 
In this book, we will look at further details of the partition of Ireland.
