The Naval War of 1812 (Complete Edition)

Theodore Roosevelt

Sinopse

In "The Naval War of 1812 (Complete Edition)," Theodore Roosevelt examines the pivotal naval engagements that shaped the outcomes of the War of 1812 between the United States and Great Britain. Rooted in meticulous research and vivid storytelling, Roosevelt's comprehensive narrative captures the essence of maritime conflict and national identity in the early 19th century. His literary style deftly blends historical analysis with engaging prose, allowing readers to appreciate the strategic complexities and heroic undertakings of American naval forces, while positioning the conflict within its broader socio-political context. The 26th President of the United States, Theodore Roosevelt was not only a statesman but also a passionate historian and naturalist. His deep-seated interest in naval history was influenced by his upbringing and experiences in the military, particularly his view on naval power as critical to American strength. Convinced of the importance of a strong navy, Roosevelt delved into this subject matter, believing that understanding the past could inform future policies on national defense and international relations. I highly recommend "The Naval War of 1812" to both history enthusiasts and general readers alike. Roosevelt's engaging style and thorough analysis make this work an essential study for understanding early American naval history, and it sheds light on the emerging national character during this formative period.

Hear Me Roar

Erna Walraven

A memoir about zookeeping, and what animals taught me about feminism. 
 
In the early 1980s, when Erna Walraven decided to follow her dreams and become one of the first female zookeepers in Australia, she thought her biggest challenges would be feeding big cats and subduing irate gorillas. In fact, it was her male colleagues who made work miserable, harassing and humiliating her for doing a 'man's job'. So, she looked to the animals under her care to prove them wrong. 
 
Despite what Erna's colleagues seemed to think, the females of the animal world were far from weak and demure. Elephant matriarchs led their herds; female bonobos revelled in sexual exploration; emu mothers abandoned their chicks to the care of their fathers. Her colleagues wouldn't dare tell a female tiger that hunting was a 'male's job' - why were they so intent on limiting Erna? 
 
In this insightful and delightful book, Erna blends memoir and pop science to tell a fiercely female story. She recounts a life spent caring for animals in a fast transforming industry, and dives into scientific evidence and evolutionary history to debunk the myths that once held her back.
