    Gertrude Stein (February 3, 1874 - July 27, 1946) was an American novelist, poet, playwright, and art collector. Born in Allegheny, Pennsylvania, and raised in Oakland, California, Stein moved to Paris in 1903, and made France her home for the remainder of her life. She hosted a Paris salon, where the leading figures of modernism in literature and art, such as Pablo Picasso, Ernest Hemingway, F. Scott Fitzgerald, Sinclair Lewis, Ezra Pound, Sherwood Anderson and Henri Matisse, would meet. The following three recordings are from Stein's novel, The Making of Americans (1925), and her poems, How She Bowed to her Brother (1931) and If I Told Him - A Completed Portrait of Picasso (1923)

    This is a compilation of 5 different titles, which are about the following topics: 
    1: Undoubtedly, Napoleon, the French revolutionist and emperor has left his mark on European history. His vast empire stretched all over the continent, his unique image and posture have been emulated by many, and his infamous defeat in Russia was a precursor of the defeat Hitler experienced for similar reasons. 
    2: Hannibal Barca, one of Carthage’s most influential generals, lived a couple hundred years before Christ, and has led many Roman troops to victory to conquer the surrounding nations. Famous were his battles with elephants he employed during tactical moves of cavalry and infantry armies alike. 
    3: The Greek general and king, Alexander the Great, is a name you might have heard before. Although his historical journey varies greatly from the stories and rumors about him, he did accomplish many victories in Asia and Europe in his conquest to rule the world. In this guide, we will go over his appearance, his character, his many battles, his clever military strategies, and the regions he conquered. 
    4: William the First, who was also called William the Conqueror and in some cases William the Bastard, was the first Norman emperor of England, ruling from 1066 till his death in 1087. Around this time, many wars and battles were waged over the kingdom and distribution of territories in Europe. France, the Anglo-Saxons, and Scandinavian troops were engaged in raids, struggles, and battles to claim their lands and gains. 
    5: Suleiman was the most famous sultan of the Ottoman empire in the sixteenth century. His reign meant an increase of interest in art, expanded regions under Muslim law, and hundreds of thousands of men employed in the army, ready to fight wars against surrounding nations.

    Who are the descendants of Fletcher Christian today? How did the Bounty rebels survive in virtual autarky on their island at the end of the world for ten generations? Why did the British crown finally take its revenge on the mutineers who had defied it since 1790? 
    Olivier Goujon tells the epic story of the most astonishing human community, both mythical and terrifying, in the form of an adventure story and a journalistic investigation. The destiny of about fifty men and women who were rejected and disconnected from the rest of the world, from the progress of science and evolution. A damned nation that has lived in extreme difficulty for 230 years, often against morality and human rights.
    Caught up by the modern world, secret diplomacy, international trade, and the King's justice, the island is now at a dramatic turning point in its history.
