Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: No country has had as many stories written about its national police force as Canada. The sterling image of the scarlet-coated Mountie was almost as familiar a symbol as the ubiquitous cowboy in American fiction. And nowhere was he more popular than in the dynamic pulp fiction magazines. During the '20s, '30s, and '40s, tales featuring rugged Mounties maintaining the law of the untamed North were so popular that a number of authors built careers specializing in their exploits. This is a generous collection of such stories, as flamboyant and red-blooded as the publications in which they first appeared.

SAHARA ADVENTURE SERIES - THE SCARLET RIDERS The thrilling Sahara adventure series continues in this gripping third installment, “The Scarlet Riders”. Captain D’Arlan, an officer in the French Foreign Legion, sets out across the sweltering Sahara desert with a small contingent of soldiers. Their mission is to present a loyal elderly Arab chief named El Abbas with a medal on his 70th birthday, honoring his decades of friendship with the Legion. However, en route, they witness a perplexing and ominous scene. A caravan of Arab men, women, and children is attacked by soldiers dressed in Legion uniforms. The caravan is gunned down mercilessly, leaving D’Arlan shocked and baffled. Who are these imposters abducting innocents while posing as Legion? What sinister plot is underway in the desert sands? Pressing onward to the El Wadak Oasis settlement, D’Arlan hopes old ally El Abbas can shed light on the mystery. But on arrival, they are met with rage and blame. El Abbas has been murdered. He is nailed to a cross, supposedly by the French Legion who also kidnapped the young people of the tribe. Utterly confused by the false accusations against the Legion, D’Arlan decides to spend the night and get to the bottom of this. But during the night, he and his men are ambushed and taken captive by the same false Legion soldiers from the caravan attack. They find themselves prisoners in a secret desert tent camp, run by a German named Heinz Dietrich. There, D’Arlan’s men are hypnotized and brainwashed by Dietrich’s henchman, Helmuth. Now under mind control, they are coerced into training a clandestine Arab army in using advanced weaponry, to aid the beautiful Dulac warrior princess El Karima in a rebellion against the Legion. El Karima arrives and takes the hypnotized men away to her stronghold, except for Teuns Stegmann, whom she is besotted with. Imprisoned at El Karima’s palace, clever Italian soldier Vittorio Petacci secretly breaks her spell over Stegmann and tells him of their impending execution. Stegmann plots a daring escape and sabotages the weapons training. Pursued into the desert by Dietrich’s men and El Karima’s army, they stumble upon an astonishing discovery in a cave. Meanwhile, the Legion’s Fort Dini Salam is besieged by twenty thousand vengeful Arabs, believing they were betrayed. Vastly outnumbered, Colonel Le Clerq faces impossible odds trying to defend against the onslaught. Refused reinforcements and surrounded, Le Clerq prepares for a fight until the last man. Just as annihilation seems imminent, the approaching Arab cavalry suddenly makes a mystifying maneuver. From the bleak sands, salvation emerges for the valiant Legion in their sandstone bastion. But is it too late to turn the tide of battle? Will D’Arlan and his brave soldiers escape the desert and expose the truth? Can they thwart Dietrich and El Karima’s insidious plot against the Legion? “The Scarlet Riders” by the author Meiring Fouche once again deliver pulse-pounding action and diabolical intrigue in the scorching Sahara sun.

Download or read book The Dawn of the Warrior Age written by Royall Tyler and published by Columbia University Press. This book was released on 2024-04-02 with total page 319 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The war between the Heike and Genji clans in the twelfth and thirteenth centuries is among the most compelling and significant moments in Japan’s history, immortalized in The Tale of the Heike. Beyond the events recorded in this canonical text, the conflicts of the surrounding years are crucial to medieval Japanese culture and history. In 1156, power began to slip away from the court nobility in Kyoto. A shogunate was later founded in Kamakura, and in 1221, it won a decisive victory over the court. The three war tales translated in this book tell the story of these critical decades, vividly recording stages in the passage from rule by the imperial court in Kyoto to rule by the warrior government in Kamakura. “The Tale of the Hōgen Years” recounts a deposed emperor’s disastrous attempt to regain the throne in 1156. “The Tale of the Heiji Years” narrates a bloody clash between rival courtier factions in 1159. “An Account of the Jōkyū Years” records Kamakura’s victory over the imperial attempt to overthrow it in 1221. These works do not simply complete the story of The Tale of the Heike—they are classics of Japanese literature in their own right. Royall Tyler’s lively translation masterfully conveys the nature of medieval Japanese warfare, rendering aristocratic power politics and the brutal realities of violence with equal aplomb. The Dawn of the Warrior Age is an essential book for readers interested in premodern Japanese history and literature.
