The Iron Wall - Avi Shlaim

Avi Shlaim s The Iron Wall: Israel and the Arab World is the outstanding book on Israeli foreign policy, now thoroughly updated with a new preface and chapters on Israel s most recent leadersIn the 1920s, hard-line Zionists developed the doctrine of the Iron Wall : negotiations with the Arabs must always be from a position of military strength, and only when sufficiently strong Israel would be able to make peace with her Arab neighbours.This doctrine, argues Avi Shlaim, became central to Israeli policy; dissenters were marginalized and many opportunities to reconcile with Palestinian Arabs were lost. Drawing on a great deal of new material and interviews with many key participants, Shlaim places Israel s political and military actions under and uncompromising lens.His analysis will bring scant comfort to partisans on both sides, but it will be required reading for anyone interested in this fascinating and troubled region of the world. The Iron Wall is strikingly fair-minded, scholarly, cogently reasoned and makes enthralling ... reading Philip Ziegler, Daily Telegraph Anyone wanting to understand the modern Middle East should start by reading this elegantly written and scrupulously researched book Trevor Royle, Sunday Herald A milestone in modern scholarship of the Middle East Edward Said Fascinating ... Shlaim presents compelling evidence for a revaluation of traditional Israeli history Ethan Bronner, The New York Times Book ReviewAvi Shlaim is Professor of International Relations at St. Antony s College, Oxford. His previous books include Collusion Across the Jordan (1988) and War and Peace in the Middle East (1995).

King Cnut and the Viking Conquest of England 1016 - W. B. Bartlett

The Viking Conquest of England in 1016 ⠓ a far tougher and more brutal campaign than the Norman Conquest exactly half a century later ⠓ saw two great warriors, the Danish prince Cnut and his equally ruthless English opponent King Edmund Ironside, fight an epic campaign. Cnut sailed in two hundred longboats, landing first in September 1015 on the Wessex coast with 10,000 soldiers. The two forces fought each other to the point of exhaustion for the next fourteen months. It was a war of terrifying violence that scarred much of England, from the Humber to Cornwall. It saw an epic siege of the great walls of London and bruising set-piece battles at Penselwood, Otford, and the conclusive Danish victory at Assandun on 18 October 1016.Edmund⠙s death soon afterwards finally resolved a brutal, bloody conf lict and ended with Cnut becoming the undisputed king of England. This book tells the extraordinary story of Cnut the Great⠙s life. Cnut was far removed from the archetypal pagan Viking, being a staunch protector of the Christian Church and a man who would also become Emperor of the North as king of Denmark and Norway. His wife, Emma of Normandy, was a remarkable woman who would outlive the two kings of England that she married. Their son Harthacnut would be the second and last Danish king of England, but the greatness of his dynasty did not long survive his death. This saga also features the incompetent Æthelred the Unready, the ferocious Sweyn Forkbeard and the treacherous Eadric Streona, recreating one of the great stories of Dark Age England.

The Undisputed King of Selston - Danny Scott

Captivating and deeply moving. Richard Coles Evocative, beautifully written . . . conjures locations and feelings almost magically. Jeremy Vine My brain has made the decision . . . I am going to love this book. Richard Hawley There was a time when he felt like the undisputed King of Selston.Then again, there were several years when he was convinced that he could talk to animals and had even mastered the power of flight - sailing nightly over the headstocks, slag heaps and doggedly beautiful countryside of an isolated East Midlands mining village.But, deep down, Danny Scott knew that the real King of Selston was and always would be coal. Over the last seven hundred years, coal dust had settled on every inch of Selston. It was in the food he ate, the air he breathed and the words he spoke. It fashioned resilient men like his dad and The Texan; feisty women like his mother, whose right-hook was feared even more than her fondness for house fires.Danny was a clever bugger - dangerously clever, some said - and fiercely proud of Selston, his dad and his mining heritage. Five generations of his family had spent their working lives underground, providing fuel for the Industrial Revolution, the electrical, rail and motoring revolutions. Without it, the modern age wouldn t have been so . . . modern.But as this young boy prepared to follow in his dad s footsteps, things began to change. The Devil became captain of the local darts team. Fortune tellers held seances in the front room of his council house. And that once unassailable King s reign seemed to be coming to an end.For dangerously clever buggers, there was only one option... somewhere else, someone new.Funny, poignant and alive to the unheralded beauty, purpose and camaraderie of a village which finds itself on the wrong side of history, THE UNDISPUTED KING OF SELSTON shines a light onto a forgotten industry and the dark shadows that wormed their way into the families who got left behind. Proper working class stories don t get much of a look-in these days. A shame, really. Especially when they re as beautifully written as this one. Noddy Holder

The King

Now with a new chapter.The official inside story of the life, death and remarkable discovery of history s most controversial monarch.On 22 August 1485 Richard III was killed at Bosworth Field, the last king of England to die in battle. His victorious opponent, Henry Tudor (the future Henry VII), went on to found one of our most famous ruling dynasties. Richard s body was displayed in undignified fashion for two days in nearby Leicester and then hurriedly buried in the church of the Greyfriars. Fifty years later, at the time of the dissolution of the monasteries, the king s grave was lost - its contents believed to be emptied into the river Soar and Richard III s reputation buried under a mound of Tudor propaganda. Its culmination was Shakespeare s compelling portrayal of a deformed and murderous villain, written over a hundred years after Richard s death. Now - in an incredible find - Richard III s remains have been uncovered beneath a car park in Leicester. The King s Grave traces this remarkable journey. In alternate chapters, Philippa Langley, whose years of research and belief that she would find Richard in this exact spot inspired the project, reveals the inside story of the search for the king s grave, and historian Michael Jones tells of Richard s fifteenth-century life and death. The result is a compelling portrayal of one of our greatest archaeological discoveries, allowing a complete re-evaluation of our most controversial monarch - one that discards the distortions of later Tudor histories and puts the man firmly back into the context of his times.

But can someone who is hardly a man ever truly be a knight?The king is lonely: recently returned to court from an exile of his own to inherit a crown he never wanted. And yet he s fascinated by his newest knight, a man who carries secrets along with his sword, and fascination quickly turns to longing.When Bisclavret is seemingly killed by a wolf, the weight of the king s grief almost destroys him. He swears to have his vengeance, but at the height of the hunt he encounters an animal that seems too intelligent to be the violent beast he seeks. One might even say it has the mind of a man...
