Seapower States - Andrew Lambert

One of the most eminent historians of our age investigates the extraordinary success of five small maritime states  “A superb survey of the perennial opportunities and risks in what Herman Melville called ‘the watery part of the world.’”—William Anthony Hay, Wall Street Journal  Andrew Lambert, author of The Challenge: Britain Against America in the Naval War of 1812—winner of the prestigious Anderson Medal—turns his attention to Athens, Carthage, Venice, the Dutch Republic, and Britain, examining how their identities as “seapowers” informed their actions and enabled them to achieve success disproportionate to their size.  Lambert demonstrates how creating maritime identities made these states more dynamic, open, and inclusive than their lumbering continental rivals. Only when they forgot this aspect of their identity did these nations begin to decline. Recognizing that the United States and China are modern naval powers—rather than seapowers—is essential to understanding current affairs, as well as the long-term trends in world history. This volume is a highly original “big think” analysis of five states whose success—and eventual failure—is a subject of enduring interest, by a scholar at the top of his game.

Franklin - Andrew Lambert

In 1845 Captain Sir John Franklin led a large, well equipped expedition to complete the conquest of the Canadian Arctic, to find the fabled North West Passage connecting the North Atlantic to the North Pacific. Yet Franklin, his ships and his men were fated never to return. The cause of their loss remains a mystery. In Franklin, Andrew Lambert presents a gripping account of the worst catastrophe in the history of British exploration, and the dark tales of cannibalism that surround the fate of those involved.Shocked by the disappearance of all 129 officers and men, and sickened by reports of cannibalism, the Victorians re-created Franklin as the brave Christian hero who laid down his life, and those of his men. Later generations have been more sceptical about Franklin and his supposed selfless devotion to duty. But does either view really explain why this outstanding scientific navigator found his ships trapped in pack ice seventy miles from magnetic north?In 2014 Canadian explorers discovered the remains of Franklin''s ship. His story is now being brought to a whole new generation, and Andrew Lambert''s book gives the best analysis of what really happened to the crew. In its incredible detail and its arresting ...

Admirals - Andrew Lambert

The true story of how Britain''s maritime power helped gain this country unparalleled dominance of the world''s economy, Admirals celebrates the rare talents of the men who shaped the most successful fighting force in world history. Told through the lives and battles of eleven of our most remarkable admirals - men such as James II and Robert Blake - Andrew Lambert''s book stretches from the Spanish Armada to the Second World War, culminating with the spirit which led Andrew Browne Cunningham famously to declare, when the army feared he would lose too many ships, ''it takes three years to build a ship; it takes three centuries to build a tradition.''

No More Napoleons - Andrew Lambert

How, for just over a century, Britain ensured it would not face another Napoleon Bonaparte—manipulating European powers while building a global maritime empire  At the conclusion of the Napoleonic Wars, a fragile peace emerged in Europe. The continent’s borders were redrawn, and the French Empire, once a significant threat to British security, was for now cut down to size. But after decades of ceaseless conflict, Britain’s economy was beset by a crippling debt. How could this small, insular seapower state secure order across the Channel?  Andrew Lambert argues for a dynamic new understanding of the nineteenth century, showing how British policymakers shaped a stable European system that it could balance from offshore. Through judicious deployment of naval power against continental forces, and the defence strategy of statesmen such as the Duke of Wellington, Britain ensured that no single European state could rise to pose a threat, rebuilt its economy, and established naval and trade dominance across the globe.  This is the remarkable story of how Britain kept a whole continent in check—until the final collapse of this delicately balanced order at the outset of World War One.

Nelson - Andrew Lambert

''Fascinating . . . Shot through with fresh insights . . . No previous biography has attempted anything so comprehensive.'' ObserverNelson is a thrilling new appraisal of Horatio Nelson, the greatest practitioner of naval command the world has ever seen. It explores the professional, personal, intellectual and practical origins of one man''s genius, to understand how the greatest warrior that Britain has ever produced transformed the art of conflict, and enabled his country to survive the challenge of total war and international isolation. In Nelson, Andrew Lambert - described by David Cannadine as ''the outstanding British naval historian of his generation'' - is able to offer new insights into the individual quality which led Byron rightly to celebrate Nelson''s genius as ''Britannia''s God of War''. He demonstrates how Admiral Nelson elevated the business of naval warfare to the level of the sublime. Nelson''s unique gift was to take that which other commanders found complex, and reduce it to simplicity. Where his predecessors and opponents saw a particular battle as an end in itself, Nelson was always a step ahead - even in the midst of terrifying, close-quarters action, with officers and men struck down all around him.

Compiled from a wealth of previously unpublished material, drawn from the author’s own unparalleled collection and others from around the world, this special commemorative book is packed with historical colour photography from both sides of the Atlantic, including the maiden voyage departure from New York.

Budgeting, Auditing, and Evaluation - Andrew Gray

The end of the twentieth century is shaping up as a period of volatile change and transition. As governments the world over work to sustain public policy and develop much needed policy initiatives, there is an increasing need for better budgetary management and sound evaluation of both past and prospective policies. Budgeting, Auditing, Evaluating presents in-depth, comparative examinations of budgetary processes in seven major Western governments.The contributors focus specifically on the important links between budgeting, auditing, and policy evaluation. These are examined as elements of an interactive process that plays a major role in government decision making. Although the three elements are institutionally and functionally distinct, auditing and evaluation generate information that has a measurable impact on government programs and their management. As each chapter demonstrates, national experiences show considerable variation in the development and linkage of budgeting, auditing, and evaluation. The authors identify both commonalities and divergences and make comparative statements of the consequences of these for the policy process.Contents: Andrew Gray, Bill Jenkins, and Bob Segsworth, "Perspectives on Budgeting, Auditing, and Evaluation: An Introduction," David Mathiasen, "The Separation of Powers and Political Choice" (United States), Andrew Gray and Bill Jenkins, "Separate Developments" (United Kingdom), Hans-Ulrich Derlien, ''Two-Track Processes" ...

Shibboleth - Thomas Peermohamed Lambert

Want to make it among the wealthy, upper-class students at the University of Oxford? Then you’d better have something interesting to say when people ask about your identity.Luckily, Edward does. Though he can boast neither an expensive education nor a nice room in college, he does have a long-dead Muslim grandfather from an obscure African country... At the beginning of his second year, everyone wants to get close to him—including, to his astonishment, the beautiful and highly unstable Angelica Mountbatten-Jones. As Edward scrabbles to fit in, his new friends start to grow suspicious. How will they react when they realise he hasn’t been entirely honest? What will Angelica do if she finds out about his complicated feelings towards a Jewish girl on his course? Will Edward manage to carve out a space for himself at Oxford, or will the truth get in the way?A darkly comic debut, Shibboleth drags the English campus novel into the divided, multicultural, hyperactive present day.“A talent for comedy is rare in fiction. Lambert has it, in abundance.”—Tim Parks, author of Mr Geography“Engrossing and thought-provoking.”—Tomiwa Olowade, author of This is Not America“Gloriously impious and thrillingly alive."—Rob Doyle, author of Threshold

Reading Picture Books with Children - Megan Dowd Lambert

A new, interactive approach to storytime, The Whole Book Approach was developed in conjunction with the Eric Carle Museum of Picture Book Art and expert author Megan Dowd Lambert''s graduate work in children''s literature at Simmons College, offering a practical guide for reshaping storytime and getting kids to think with their eyes. Traditional storytime often offers a passive experience for kids, but the Whole Book approach asks the youngest of readers to ponder all aspects of a picture book and to use their critical thinking skills. Using classic examples, Megan asks kids to think about why the trim size of Ludwig Bemelman''s Madeline is so generous, or why the typeset in David Wiesner''s Caldecott winner,The Three Pigs, appears to twist around the page, or why books like Chris Van Allsburg''s The Polar Express and Eric Carle''s The Very Hungry Caterpillar are printed landscape instead of portrait. The dynamic discussions that result from this shared reading style range from the profound to the hilarious and will inspire adults to make children''s responses to text, art, and design an essential part of storytime.

Jméno ďábla - Andrew Mayne - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Když v podhůří Appalačských hor zmizí za záhadných okolností církevní sbor, dávají bizarní stopy krveprolití tušit, že tuto tragédii má na svědomí snad sám ďábel. FBI má ovšem eso v rukávu – agentku Jessicu Blackwoodovou, bývalou nadanou kouzelnici z proslulé dynastie iluzionistů, která přednedávnem vyřešila případ tajemného Čaroděje a která díky svému nadání i zkušenostem dokáže rozpoznat, když věci nejsou takové, jaké se zdají být. Jessica je přesvědčená, že klíčem k záhadě je stará magnetofonová kazeta, a rozplétáním událostí, jež jsou na nahrávce zachycené, odhalí něco hodně znepokojivého – čin s dalekosáhlými důsledky. Mladá agentka se pouští po stopách zla, vedoucích ze Západní Virginie do Mexika, Miami, a dokonce až do posvátných síní Vatikánu, aby zastavila chladnokrevného vraha, posedlého smrtelným hříchem… „Svižný thriller, v němž jsou iluze zbraněmi dobra i zla.“ – Publishers Weekly. „Zápletka, která má spád, a inteligentní hlavní hrdinka ‒ to jsou ingredience adrenalinového příběhu s nečekaným zvratem.

Audiokniha: Agentka Jessica Blackwoodová vyřešila už dva velké případy a jako vycházející hvězda FBI se stále musí vyrovnávat se svou nekonvenční minulostí iluzionistky. Pravidelně se teď také radí se svým excentrickým dědečkem, někdejším skvělým kouzelníkem, jehož vnímá jako svého učitele, přestože ho kdysi nemohla vystát. Zničehonic se ovšem rutinní sledovačka změní v drama a Jessica musí bojovat o život, když se na místě objeví vyšinutá žena s dítětem v náručí a vyhrožuje, že ho zabije. Téhož dne se krátce po silném zemětřesení, které zasáhne východní pobřeží, začne po internetu šířit podivné video, na němž fyzik Peter Devon, nositel Nobelovy ceny, který už je však osm let po smrti, předpovídá místo i datum zemětřesení. A nedlouho poté je nalezena mrtvola neznámé ženy, která popisem odpovídá útočnici, s níž se Jessica střetla. Vyšetřování série zdánlivě nesouvisejících, ale stejně tak bizarních a temných zločinů zavede Jessicu do coloradské pouště a do vísky, po níž se jednoduše slehla zem, a mladá agentka zjišťuje, že se bude muset popasovat s něčím chmurnějším a mocnějším, než by kdokoliv čekal.
