The Rebel Raiders: The Warship Alabama, British Treachery, and the American Civil War
The Rebel Raiders: The Warship
Alabama, British Treachery,
And The American Civil War
    During its clandestine
    construction in
    Liverpool, it was known
    as 'Number 290'. When it
    was finally unleashed as
    the CSS Alabama, the
    Confederate warship
    triggered the last great
    military campaign of the
    Civil War; a maritime
    adventure unparalled in
    history; an infamous
    example of British
    political treachery; and
    the largest ever
    retribution tribunal:
    $15, 500 in gold paid by
    Britain to the United
    States. This riveting,
    true story of the
    Anglo-Confederate
    alliance that led to the
    creation of a Southern
    navy brings to light the
    dramatic global impact of
    the American Civil War.
    Like many matters in the
    War between the States,
    it started over cotton:
    Lincoln's naval blockade
    prevented the South from
    exporting its prize
    commodity to England. In
    response, the
    Confederacy came up with
    a unique plan to divert
    the North's vessels and
    open the waterways - a
    plan that would include
    the covert building of a
    navy in Britain, a
    daring strategy that
    would call into play an
    unforgettable cast of
    colourful characters
    including James Bulloch,
    Lord John Russell,
    Charles Francis Adams,
    and Raphael Semmes. With
    The Rebel Raiders, naval
    historian James Tertius
    deKay brings to dazzling
    life an amazing,
    little-known piece of
    history that is at once
    an important work of
    Civil War scholarship and
    a suspenseful tale of
    military strategy,
    international espionage,
    and a legal crisis, the
    outcome of which still
    affects the world today.

Conquistadors
Conquistadors
    The Spanish conquest of
    the Americas in the
    sixteenth century was one
    of the most important and
    cataclysmic events in
    history. Spanish
    expeditions endured
    incredible hardships in
    order to open up the
    lands of the 'New World',
    and few stories in
    history can match these
    for drama and
    endurance.

    In
    Conquistadors,
    Michael Wood follows in
    the footsteps of some of
    the greatest of the
    Spanish adventurers
    travelling from the
    forests of Amazonia to
    Lake Titicaca, the
    deserts of North Mexico,
    the snowpeaks of the
    Andes and the heights of
    Machu Picchu. He
    experiences the epic
    journeys of Cortes,
    Pizarro, Orellana and
    Cabeza de Vaca, and
    explores the turbulent
    and terrifying events
    surrounding the Spanish
    conquest of the Aztec and
    Inca empires.

    Wood
    brings these stories to
    vivid life, highlighting
    both the heroic
    accomplishments and the
    complex moral legacy of
    the European invasion.
    Conquistadors is
    Michael Wood at his best
    - thoughtful,
    provocative and gripping
    history.
