His Majesty's Airship - S.C. Gwynne

From historian and bestselling author of the Pulitzer Prize finalist Empire of the Summer Moon comes a “captivating, thoroughly researched” (The New York Times Book Review) tale of the rise and fall of the world’s largest airship—and the doomed love story between an ambitious British officer and a married Romanian princess at its heart.The tragic fate of the British airship R101—which went down in a spectacular fireball in 1930, killing more people than died in the Hindenburg disaster seven years later—has been largely forgotten. In His Majesty’s Airship, S.C. Gwynne resurrects it in vivid detail, telling the epic story of great ambition gone terribly wrong. Airships, those airborne leviathans that occupied center stage in the world in the first half of the 20th century, were a symbol of the future. R101 was not just the largest aircraft ever to have flown and the product of the world’s most advanced engineering—she was also the lynchpin of an imperial British scheme to link by air the far-flung areas of its empire, from Australia to India, South Africa, Canada, Egypt, and Singapore. No one had ever conceived of anything like this, and R101 captivated the world. There was just one problem: beyond the ... Unknown localization key: "more"

His Imperial Majesty - Matthew Oates

A witty and informative account that busts the myths about Britain''s most captivating butterfly species.When summer is at its zenith and the sallow foliage develops a bluish tinge, a giant butterfly – beautiful, bold and brazen – flies powerfully over the tree canopy. Females of this species, wary yet determined, haunt the sallow thickets, depositing their eggs, while the males establish treetop territories and descend to the woodland floor in search of indelicacies to feed upon. Mysterious, elusive and enthralling in equal measure, this is the butterfly that Victorian collectors yearned for above all others: His Imperial Majesty, the Purple Emperor. A wondrous enigma, the Purple Emperor is our most elusive and least-known butterfly – we glimpse it only through fissures in its treetop world, yet this giant insect has fascinated us for centuries and has even inspired its own ''Emperoring'' language. Matthew Oates became captivated by the Purple Emperor following his first sighting as a boy. He has studied it assiduously ever since, devoting his life to trying to unravel the Emperor''s secrets. His Imperial Majesty takes us on a journey, beginning with a dalliance into the bizarre history of our engagement with the butterfly, with daring doings and ... Unknown localization key: "more"

Gwynne's Latin - Nevile Gwynne

‘Latin is "it", the most wonderful "thing". It is mind-enhancing, character-improving, enthralling, exciting, deeply satisfying, and valuable. My solid determination is to spare no pains to do it the justice that its importance demands.’Mr Gwynne, author of the Sunday Times bestselling phenomenon Gwynne’s Grammar, is just as emphatic about the importance of Latin as he is about the importance of grammar. From the novice to the more well-versed, Gwynne’s Latin is essential for anyone interested in learning Latin; Mr Gwynne promises to teach you more Latin in half an hour than you would learn from years of being taught Latin at school. He also includes a fascinating section on everyday Latin usage, which discusses all the Latin words and idioms we still use today, such as ‘quid pro quo’ and ‘sui generis’. Though we need no further convincing ­– as we know, Mr Gwynne is never wrong – here are just some of the many reasons why Latin is utterly wonderful:- Latin is an academic subject easy enough for the least intelligent of us to grasp all the basic elements of, and yet difficult enough to be demanding for its greatest scholars.- For well over a thousand years it was ...

Perfect Pass - S.C. Gwynne

An “excellent sports history” (Publishers Weekly) in the tradition of Michael Lewis’s Moneyball, award-winning historian S.C. Gwynne tells the incredible story of how two unknown coaches revolutionized American football at every level, from high school to the NFL.Hal Mumme spent fourteen mostly losing seasons coaching football before inventing a potent passing offense that would soon shock players, delight fans, and terrify opposing coaches. It all began at a tiny, overlooked college called Iowa Wesleyan, where Mumme was head coach and Mike Leach, a lawyer who had never played college football, was hired as his offensive line coach. In the cornfields of Iowa these two mad inventors, drawn together by a shared disregard for conventionalism and a love for Jimmy Buffett, began to engineer the purest, most extreme passing game in the 145-year history of football. Implementing their “Air Raid” offense, their teams—at Iowa Wesleyan and later at Valdosta State and the University of Kentucky—played blazingly fast—faster than any team ever had before, and they routinely beat teams with far more talented athletes. And Mumme and Leach did it all without even a playbook. “A superb treat for all gridiron fans” (Kirkus Reviews, starred review), The Perfect Pass S.C. Gwynne explores ...

Empire of the Summer Moon - S.C. Gwynne

In the tradition of Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee, a stunningly vivid historical account of the forty-year battle between Comanche Indians and white settlers for control of the American West, centering on Quanah, the greatest Comanche chief of them all. Empire of the Summer Moon spans two astonishing stories. The first traces the rise and fall of the Comanches, the most powerful Indian tribe in American history. The second is the epic saga of the pioneer woman Cynthia Ann Parker and her mixed-blood son Quanah, who became the last and greatest chief of the Comanches. Although readers may be more familiar with the tribal names Apache and Sioux, it was in fact the legendary fighting ability of the Comanches that determined just how and when the American West opened up. Comanche boys became adept bareback riders by age six; full Comanche braves were considered the best horsemen who ever rode. They were so masterful at war and so skillful with their arrows and lances that they stopped the northern drive of colonial Spain from Mexico and halted the French expansion westward from Louisiana.

Stín bohů - John Gwynne - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Tohle je svět krve, drápů a ostrých čepelí, svět předčasné a bolestivé smrti… Bitevní plání Vigríd, kde před staletími umírali bohové, se šíří zvěsti o válce, a tak slávychtiví jarlové i samozvaní králové svolávají své věrné. A zatímco se šikují a narychlo uzavírají nová spojenectví, pátrají po čemkoli, co by v nadcházejících bojích posílilo jejich šance. Kosti mrtvých bohů, magií nasáklá krev poskvrněných nebo obávaná monstra, jež se po pádu Snaky vyvalila z vaesenské jámy – to vše jim může v nastalém chaosu poskytnout nemalou výhodu a nakonec třeba i vytoužené vítězství. Mezitím nezlomná Orka stopuje vrahy svého muže, kteří jí unesli jediného syna, uprchlý otrok Varg se ocitá mezi Krvopřísežnými, o jejichž činech pějí skaldové u večerních ohňů, a domovem odvážné štítonošky Elvy se stává drakkar plný zuřivých válečníků. Jenže nitkám osudu odedávna vládne vyšší síla a ta má s trojicí nevšedních hrdinů vlastní plány… První díl oceňované fantasy ságy, která se odehrává v severském světě plném mýtů, magie a násilí. „Mistrovsky zpracovaná a brutálně přesvědčivá epická fantasy inspirovaná severskou kulturou.“ – Anthony Ryan, autor trilogie Stín krkavce. „Série, která je příslibem stejné míry komplexnosti a hloubky jako Kolo času Roberta Jordana nebo Píseň ledu a ohně George ...

Audiokniha: Bohové se vracejí. A hladovějí po krvi a moci! Bájná dračí bohyně Lik-Rifa byla po staletém věznění osvobozena z magických okovů a nyní se svými poskvrněnými potomky – drakorozenými – spřádá krvelačné dobyvatelské plány. Orce pátrající po uneseném synovi zkříží cestu bývalí spolubojovníci: Krvopřísežní vedení Glórnim Lamačem Štítů, bratrem jejího zesnulého manžela Thorkela. Uprchlý otrok Varg Nerozum, kterého mezi sebe přijali teprve nedávno, záhy pozná, proč se Orce přezdívalo Drtilebka – stejně jako všichni Krvopřísežní totiž patří mezi poskvrněné a v žilách jí koluje krev vlčího boha Úlfriho. Glórniho zuřiví válečníci spojí své síly s Lítými bijci, do jejichž čela se po bitvě s Krmiči krkavců a Biórově zradě, jež stála život náčelníka Agnara Brokssona, postavila Elva prahnoucí po pomstě. Ani v této svornosti však nemohou čelit síle dračí bohyně, a tak jejich jediná naděje spočívá v nalezení knihy zakázaných kouzel, s jejíž pomocí se pokusí vzkřísit obávaného vlka Úlfriho. A přimět ho, aby bojoval po jejich boku. Druhý díl strhující fantasy ságy, jejíž autor se nechal inspirovat severskou mytologií. „Mistrovsky zpracovaná a brutálně přesvědčivá epická fantasy, inspirovaná severskou kulturou.“ – Anthony Ryan, autor trilogie Stín krkavce. „Popisovaný svět, jeho tradice i sama zápletka jsou nesmírně poutavé.
