Book excerpt: Excerpt from The Gorilla Hunters: A Tale of the Wilds of Africa It was five o'clock in the afternoon. There can be no doubt whatever as to that. Old Agnes may say what she pleases, - she has a habit of doing so; but I know for certain (because I looked at my watch not ten minutes before it happened) that it was exactly five o'clock in the afternoon, when I received a most singular and every way remarkable visit - a visit which has left an indelible impression on my memory, as well it might, for, independent of its singularity and unexpectedness, one of its results was the series of strange adventures which are faithfully detailed in this volume. It happened thus: - I was seated in an arm chair in my private study in a small town on the west coast of England. It was a splendid afternoon, and it was exactly five o'clock. Mark that. Not that there is anything singular about the mere fact - neither is it in any way mixed up with the thread of this tale; but old Agnes is very obstinate - singularly positive - and I have a special desire that she should see it in print, that I have not given in on that point. Yes, it was five precisely, and a beautiful evening. I was ruminating, as I frequently do, on the pleasant memories of bygone days, especially the happy days that I spent long ago among the coral islands of the Pacific, when a tap at the door aroused me.

This book was released on 2019-12-16 with total page 109 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book delves deep into the historical event known as the twelfth siege of Gibraltar, fought between September 1704 and May 1705 during the War of the Spanish Succession. The members of the Grand Alliance, including the Holy Roman Empire, England, the Netherlands, Pro-Habsburg Spain, Portugal, and Savoy, had joined forces to prevent the unification of the French and Spanish thrones by supporting the claim of the Habsburg pretender Archduke Charles VI of Austria as Charles III of Spain. They were opposed by the rival claimant, the Bourbon Philip, Duke of Anjou, who ruled as Philip V of Spain, and his patron and ally, Louis XIV of France. The war began in northern Europe and was largely contained there until 1703, when Portugal joined the confederate powers. From then on, the English navy focused on mounting a campaign in the Mediterranean to distract the French navy, disrupt French and Bourbon Spanish shipping, or capture a port for use as a naval base. The capture of Gibraltar was the outcome of that initial stage of the Mediterranean campaign.
