Download or read book Predator of the Seas written by Stephen Taylor and published by Yale University Press. This book was released on 2024-09-24 with total page 376 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The dramatic biography of a slaveship turned freedom-fighter—which brings new insights into Britain’s involvement in the end of the trade in enslaved people In 1827 the Royal Navy purchased a Baltimore clipper and renamed her the Black Joke. Assigned to the Preventative Squadron, she patrolled the west coast of Africa and freed 3,692 captives from enslavement. Beloved by seafarers and celebrated by the public, the Black Joke would become the most famous weapon in the campaign for abolition. But in her previous life as the Henriqueta, the Black Joke had been a slave ship. Through the experiences of slavers and abolitionists, captives and crew, Stephen Taylor charts the vessel’s extraordinary double life. As the Henriqueta she operated as an engine of atrocity, trafficking over 3,000 captives to plantations in Brazil. But subsequently manned by British seamen and Liberian Kru, the Black Joke became the scourge of Spanish and Brazilian slavers. She did so despite limited resources, neglect, and even obstruction by the authorities at home. Taylor offers a gripping account of the world of the transatlantic trade, through the eyes of its perpetrators—and those who sought its end.

Book excerpt: Title: Aftermath: Tales of Post-Apocalyptic Survival - Series 1 Author: Ime Ben Synopsis: In Aftermath: Tales of Post-Apocalyptic Survival, the first installment of a gripping 10-part series, Ime Ben weaves a harrowing yet hopeful narrative of life in a world reshaped by disaster. This post-apocalyptic saga follows the lives of ordinary people thrust into extraordinary circumstances, where the collapse of society forces them to confront the stark realities of survival.

As the remnants of civilization crumble, the survivors—among them, the story's protagonist, James Harper—must navigate a landscape marked by destruction, scarcity, and danger. With society's structures obliterated, the characters grapple with the immediate need to secure food, water, and shelter while facing the psychological toll of their new reality. Throughout the series, the narrative explores the complexities of human nature under extreme conditions. From the fierce battles with nature in the unforgiving West to the moral dilemmas that define what remains of humanity, each chapter delves deeper into the struggles and triumphs of the survivors. As they form tenuous alliances and confront external threats, including hostile survivor groups and the harsh elements, the characters are constantly challenged to balance survival with the remnants of their morality. In "The Last Stand," the survivors face their greatest challenge yet—a confrontation with a ruthless band of raiders that forces them to make heart-wrenching decisions. This climactic battle tests their resolve and pushes them to the brink, ultimately reshaping their understanding of community, leadership, and hope. As they move from mere survival to the possibility of rebuilding, the series sets the stage for a deeper exploration of what it means to be human in a world where the old rules no longer apply. Through vivid storytelling and richly developed characters, Aftermath: Tales of Post-Apocalyptic Survival offers a powerful reflection on resilience, the human spirit, and the enduring hope for a better future.

Download or read book Brute Force written by Dominic Lennard and published by SUNY Press. This book was released on 2019-11-01 with total page 278 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Considers how dangerous beasts in horror films illuminate the human-animal relationship. It’s always been a wild world, with humans telling stories of killer animals as soon as they could tell stories at all. Movies are an especially popular vehicle for our fascination with fierce creatures. In Brute Force, Dominic Lennard takes a close look at a range of cinematic animal attackers, including killer gorillas, sharks, snakes, bears, wolves, spiders, and even a few dinosaurs. Lennard argues that animal horror is not so much a focused genre as it is an impulse, tapping into age-old fears of becoming prey. At the same time, these films expose conflicts and uncertainties in our current relationship with animals. Movies considered include King Kong, Jaws, The Grey, Them!, Arachnophobia, Jurassic Park, Snakes on a Plane, An American Werewolf in London, and many more. Drawing on insights from film studies, art history, cognitive science, and evolutionary psychology, Brute Force is an engaging critical exploration—and appreciation—of cinema’s many bad beasts. “The brilliance of Dominic Lennard’s Brute Force is not only that it is long overdue, but one didn’t realize it was due in the first place! Yet upon reflection and, of course, through Lennard’s engaging book, one realizes not only the ubiquity of animals in horror, but their utter centrality to so many classic horror films. In reading this, we can hear the distant rumble of footsteps of a genetically reborn Tyrannosaurus or the hurried pounding of our beloved Rover who has decided that he wants more than kibbles and bits for dinner—and we look mighty appetizing. ‘Groundbreaking’ is often overused, but in this case it truly fits.” — David Desser, coeditor of Tough Ain’t Enough: New Perspectives on the Films of Clint Eastwood
