Book excerpt: To travel America had been a lifelong dream; I promised myself, that on completing university (which I attended as a mature student studying chemistry), I would pluck up the courage and GO! I meet a white witch of the Wicca cult online and she invites me to stay with her in Virginia in the 'Bible Belt' in September 2002. I live with her for a month where things turn out badly between us; I had bought a second hand car and one morning 'do a runner' and head for Niagara Falls. Canada is too cold for me in October, as is Michigan so I head south through Indiana, Kentucky, Tennessee, Arkansas to the Gulf of Mexico, Padre Island and then through the deserts to California. This book is a compilation of the long letters (that became a diary) that I wrote home to my daughter up to February. March to May; California to West Virginia is covered in my second Novel - available now

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A History of Portuguese Overseas Expansion 1400-1668 provides an accessible survey of how the Portuguese became so influential during this period and how Portuguese settlements were founded in areas as far flung as Asia, Africa and South America. Malyn Newitt examines how the ideas and institutions of a late medieval society were deployed to aid expansion into Africa and the Atlantic islands, as well as how, through rivalry with Castile, this grew into a worldwide commercial enterprise. Finally, he considers how resilient the Portuguese overseas communities were, surviving wars and natural disasters, and fending off attacks by the more heavily armed English and Dutch invaders until well into the 1600s. Including a detailed bibliography and glossary, A History of Portuguese Overseas Expansion 1400-1668 is an invaluable textbook for all those studying this fascinating period of European expansion

This book was released on 1998-12-10 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle.

Brakel and edited by Stuart Schwartz and Fernando Novais, this Brazilian classic has never before available in English. Chapters in Brazil's Colonial History opens Brazil's rich, fascinating past to the general reader, and offers scholars access to a great turning point in historical scholarship.

Download or read book India s Naval Traditions written by K. K. N. Kurup and published by Northern Book Centre. This book was released on 1997 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Based on the Portuguese sources on the XVIth Century History of India and the anti-colonial struggles in Malabar led by the Zamorin and the House of Kunhali Marakkars. Their role in counteracting the Portuguese expansion deserves an indepth study and analysis. Although the present work is not a comprehensive one on the naval traditions of India, atleast it would help us promote the memory of a forgotten chapter in the History of Kerala and perpetuate the cause of national integration and communal harmony in this great country. The values cherished by the Kunhali Marakkars, to which they dedicated themselves and sacrificed their life, have a meaning for all time to come. This volume is an expression of that sentiment of Nationalism and memory of an epoch in the Asiatic History.
