Book excerpt: "Rough Ride to Runnymede is a very well written and historically detailed book. I much enjoyed it and as chairman of a children's book company I can say I am sure many in the 7-14-year-old age group will learn much from it." —Sir Robert Worcester KBE DL, founder of the social research company MORI; former Chancellor of the University of Kent and Chairman of the Emeritus Governors of the London School of Economics and Political Science (LSE); a Fellow at King's College London; a keen environmentalist and former Trustee of WWF, the World Wide Fund for Nature; Vice President of the Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust; and Deputy Chairman of the Magna Carta Trust and Chairman of the Magna Carta 800th Anniversary in 2015. In a 13th century kingdom studded with castles, cloaked with forests, and torn apart by evil, 14-year-old Taymor Wallop must win justice from a cruel king. If he doesn't, he will die and Magna Carta, the great charter of freedom and fairness, will never see the light of day. Bullied for being brown, orphaned and alone, Tay goes on a quest to raise the banner of fair play over England. Twelve-year-old Lucy, a runaway heiress, and Archer, a runaway serf, join him. To overcome lawless King John, the three have to become a team and Tay has to be brave enough to wield the Sword of the Spirit. Tay's adventure is the story of a homeless boy who risks his life to defeat bullying and injustice. Rough Ride joins a family of adventure books that include War Horse and Johnny Tremain. Adding to its interest are a glossary section, history report, and geography notes useful for teachers. Themes include: Empowerment, Self-Doubt, Courage, Confidence, Friendship, Fair Play, New Experiences

Book excerpt: For the eight hundredth anniversary of the Magna Carta, the University of Virginia Press presents the first paperback edition of The Road from Runnymede by A. E. Dick Howard, originally published in 1968. In this volume, Howard explores the ways in which Magna Carta's concepts, most notably due process, have been absorbed and put into practice by English and especially American society. He goes on to show how the idea of constitutional government evolved in America, moving beyond the foundations laid by Magna Carta to adapt itself to the new republic's needs.
Download or read book The Battle Of France written by Peter Cornwell and published by After the Battle. This book was released on 2008-02-28 with total page 1572 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Peter Cornwell tells the story of the greatest air battle of the Second World War when six nations were locked in combat over north-western Europe for a traumatic six weeks in 1940. He describes the day-to-day events as the battle unfolds, and details the losses suffered by all six nations involved: Britain, France, Holland, Belgium, Germany and, rather belatedly, Italy. As far as RAF fighter squadrons in France were concerned, it was an all-Hurricane show, yet it was the Blenheim and Battle crews who suffered the brunt of the casualties. Every aircraft lost or damaged through enemy action while operating in France is listed together with the fate of the crews. The RAF lost more than a thousand aircraft of all types over the Western Front during the six-week battle, the French Air Force 1,400, but Luftwaffe losses were even higher at over 1,800 aircraft.

Download or read book Six of One written by Rita Mae Brown and published by Bantam. This book was released on 2017-01-31 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Perched right on the Mason-Dixon line, tiny Runnymede, Maryland, is ripe with a history almost as colorful as the women who live there—from Celeste Chalfonte, headstrong and aristocratic, who murders for principle and steals her brother’s wife, to Fannie Jump Creighton, who runs a speakeasy right in her own home when hard times come knocking. Then of course, there’re Louise and Julia, the boldly eccentric Hunsenmeir sisters. Wheezie and Juts spend their whole lives in Runnymede, cheerfully quibbling about everything from men to child-rearing to how to drive a car. But they never let small-town life keep them from chasing their biggest dreams—or from being true to who they really are. Sparkling with a perfect combination of sisterhood and sass, Six of One is a richly textured Southern canvas—Rita Mae Brown “at her winning, fondest best”(Kirkus Reviews).
Download or read book Loose Lips written by Rita Mae Brown and published by Bantam. This book was released on 2009-10-21 with total page 434 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: If you crossed Mitford, North Carolina, with Peyton Place, you might come up with Runnymede, Maryland, the most beguiling of Southern towns. In Loose Lips, Rita Mae Brown revisits Runnymede and the beloved characters introduced in Six of One and Bingo, serving up an exuberant portrayal of small-town sins and Southern mores, set against a backdrop of homefront life during World War II. "I'm afraid life is passing me by," Louise told her sister. "No, it's not," Juts said. "Life can't pass us by. We are life." In the picturesque town of Runnymede, everyone knows everyone else's business, and the madcap antics of the battling Hunsenmeir sisters, Julia (Juts) and Louise, have kept the whole town agog ever since they were children. Now, in the fateful year of 1941, with America headed for war, the sisters are inching toward forty...and Juts is unwise enough to mention that unspeakable reality to her sister. The result is a huge brawl that litters Cadwalder's soda fountain with four hundred dollars' worth of broken glass. To pay the debt, the sisters choose a surprisingly new direction. Suddenly they are joint owners of The Curl 'n' Twirl beauty salon, where discriminating ladies meet to be primped, permed, and pampered while dishing the town's latest dirt. As Juts and Louise become Runnymede's most unlikely new career women, each faces her share of obstacles. Restless Juts can't shake her longing for a baby, while holier-than-thou Louise is fit to be tied over her teenage daughter's headlong rush toward scandal. As usual, the sisters rarely see eye to eye, and there are plenty of opinions to go around. Even the common bond of patriotic duty brings wildly unexpected results when the twosome joins the Civil Air Patrol, watching the night sky for German Stukas. But loose lips can sink even the closest relationships, and Juts and Louise are about to discover that some things are best left unsaid. Spanning a decade in the lives of Louise, Juts, and their nearest and dearest, including the incomparable Celeste Chalfonte, Loose Lips is an unforgettable tale of love and loss and the way life can always throw you a curveball. By turns poignant and hilarious, it is deepened by Rita Mae Brown's unerring insight into the human heart.
