Sinopsis

Church Crown Tensions delves into the centuries-long struggle between English monarchs and religious institutions, a conflict that profoundly shaped English history. This book explores how the pursuit of power and wealth fueled clashes between the Crown and the Church, impacting the development of English common law and ultimately leading to the Reformation.

 
One key tension revolved around wealth; for example, the Statute of Mortmain was enacted to curb the Church's accumulation of land. Another significant point of contention was legal jurisdiction, highlighted by the conflict between Henry II and Thomas Becket over the Constitutions of Clarendon.

 
The book chronologically examines the evolving power dynamic from Henry II's attempts to control the Church to Henry VIII's break with Rome. It analyzes legal, economic, and ideological battles, showcasing how the Crown sought to assert royal supremacy. By examining primary sources and legal documents, Church Crown Tensions offers a unique perspective on this continuous negotiation of power, making it a valuable resource for understanding the roots of political and religious authority in England.

Pirates of the Slave Trade - The...

Angela C. Sutton

No one present at the Battle of Cape Lopez off the coast of West Africa in 1722 could have known that they were on the edge of history. This obscure yet fierce naval battle would have a monumental impact on British colonies and the future of slavery in America. 
 
 
 
Pirates of the Slave Trade follows three figures whose fates would violently converge: John Conny, a charismatic leader of the Akan people who made lucrative deals with pirates and smugglers while fending off British and Dutch slavers; the infamous pirate Black Bart, who worked his way from an anonymous navigator to one of the British Empire's most notorious enemies in the region; and naval captain Chaloner Ogle, tasked by the Crown with hunting down and killing Black Bart at all costs. At the Battle of Cape Lopez, these three men and the massive historical forces at their backs would finally find each other—and the world would be transformed forever. 
 
 
 
In this landmark narrative history, historian Angela Sutton outlines the complex network of trade routes spanning the Atlantic Ocean trafficked by agents of empire, private merchants, and brutal pirates alike. Drawing from a wide range of primary historical sources, Sutton offers a new perspective on how a single battle played a pivotal role in reshaping the trade of enslaved people in ways that affect America to this day.
