  The Norman Sicily - A Crossroads...

  The Norman conquest of Sicily was a transformative period that reshaped the island’s political, social, and cultural landscape. The Normans, originally of Viking descent, had settled in northern France and became known for their military prowess and adaptability. By the 11th century, ambitious Norman adventurers turned their attention to southern Italy, seeking wealth and power. Among them, the Hauteville family played a crucial role in the conquest of Sicily, led by Robert Guiscard and his younger brother Roger.  
  The campaign to seize Sicily from Muslim control began in 1061, as the Normans took advantage of internal divisions among the island’s Muslim rulers. At the time, Sicily was a prosperous and diverse society, ruled by various Arab and Berber factions who had governed the island for over two centuries. Despite their dominance, infighting among the Muslim emirs weakened their hold, providing the Normans with an opportunity to launch a well-planned invasion. Robert Guiscard and Roger initially captured the strategic town of Messina, using it as a foothold for further expansion. Over the next three decades, the Normans steadily advanced across the island, engaging in fierce battles and sieges. 
  One of the most significant victories came in 1072 when the Normans captured the capital city of Palermo, a major cultural and economic center. Palermo’s fall marked a turning point in the conquest, as it solidified Norman authority in the region. However, complete control of Sicily was not achieved until 1091 when Roger seized Noto, the last stronghold of Muslim resistance. With this final victory, the Normans established their rule over the entire island, bringing an end to Muslim governance while incorporating many aspects of its administrative and cultural systems.

Her family was horrified.At the end of her first day of teaching, Mary was horrified too. This was not the exciting adventure she had imagined.

The ideals she had come with had shattered on her classroom floor, and a big piece of her heart, lay buried behind a small log cabin in the woods.Sixty years later, two unexpected gifts forced Mary to take a second look back and a more hopeful look forward.

  The Game Is Afoot - The Enduring...

  Through the enduring eye of Sherlock Holmes, noted historian Jeremy Black traces how Holmes and his milieu evolved in Sir Arthur Conan Doyle's books and how Holmes continues to resonate today. Black explores the context of Doyle's ideas and stories and why they struck such a chord with readers in London, and ultimately the world. He portrays a complex man with eclectic interests, from soccer to spiritualism, from cricket to divorce law reform. Standing twice for Parliament, Doyle was a committed meritocrat whose political experiences and values were expressed through his writings. Reading the Holmes stories through the lens of Doyle's multifaceted career, Black throws fresh light on the values expressed in them and how Holmes would have been perceived at the time. He traces the imperial strand in the Holmes stories and Doyle's treatment of America and Europe. 
   
   
   
  Drawing on a masterful knowledge both of Doyle's era and his writings, this entertaining and wide-ranging book uses the Holmes stories to bring Victorian England to vibrant life, a world where crimes large and small abound and where dark corners and well-lit drawing rooms alike hide villainy. Holmes was a hero and an inspiration for many a character who redefined the idea of detection and the detective, a private man of great public importance. Here is his story.
