Book excerpt: For many people, the cinematic vigilante has been shaped by Charles Bronson's character in Death Wish and its sequels. But screen vigilantes have taken many guises, from Old West lynch mobs and rogue police officers to rape-avengers and military-trained equalizers. This book recounts the varied representations of such characters in films like The Birth of a Nation, which celebrated the violence of the Ku Klux Klan, and Taxi Driver, Falling Down and You Were Never Really Here, in which the vigilante impulse was symptomatic of mental instability. Also considered is the extent to which fictional vigilantism functions as social commentary and to what degree it is simply stoking popular fears.

Download or read book The Notorious Reno Gang written by Rachel Dickinson and published by Rowman & Littlefield. This book was released on 2017-05-01 with total page 271 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The true story of the world’s first robbery of a moving train, and the real origins of the Wild West They were the first outlaws to rob a moving train. But from 1864 to 1868, the Reno brothers and their gang of counterfeiters, robbers, burglars, and safecrackers also held the town of Seymour, Indiana, hostage, making a large hotel near the train station their headquarters. When the gang robbed the Adams Express car of the Ohio & Mississippi Railroad on the outskirts of Seymour on October 6, 1866, it shocked the world—and made other burgeoning outlaws like Jesse James sit up and take notice. The extraordinary—and extra-legal—efforts to take them out defined the term “frontier justice.” From the first report of the robbery, Allan Pinkerton’s operatives were on the scene, followed by kidnappings, lynchings, and an extradition from Canada to Indiana that caused an international incident. In the end, ten members of the Reno Gang were hanged, including three of the Reno brothers. And no one was ever charged with the murders. The Notorious Reno Gang tells the complete story for the first time, revealing how these gangsters, Pinkerton’s National Detective Agency, and the little city of Seymour ushered in the Wild West.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: London : January 1958. During the past two and a half years a serial killer has been roaming the streets of London torturing his victims by slicing off their left ear before ritually disembowelling them. Detective Inspector Neil Goddard, a lonely man who has never really got over the death of his fiancée in 1951 and assigned to catch the murderer is woken early one morning to be told that another body has been found but to his surprise learns that it is actually the killer himself. Identification is soon established but investigations into what turned the man into such a callous monster and to who had killed him leads Goddard back to old haunts and revives memories of events that happened during the early years of the Second World War. The situation is further complicated when a telephone call is received which states that the revenge killing was a way of repaying a debt owed to him – and evidence points to the debt referring to one specific event seventeen years earlier.Recognising that what had happened during a clandestine operation into occupied France is the key to finding out the identity of the 'vigilante' Goddard soon finds himself immersed in the world of espionage and meets Gerald Fitzroy-Browne, a man who is hiding a secret. During the discussion he learns that the key character is Lionel Preston, a habitual criminal who was recruited in 1940 into a shadowy force known only as Group 'A', part of the Special Operations Executive. Although the unit was supposed to have been disbanded in 1945 this group continued under different auspices without sanction from the Government and Preston, known under many pseudonyms associated with the works of H G Wells, carried out a number of obscure assassinations but latterly seems intent on maintaining his anonymity by killing those few people who can identify him, which includes Winston Churchill.Goddard, realising that time is running out, then learns that the man behind the wheel in the hit and run accident that had killed his fiancée was actually Preston and redoubles his efforts to catch him. But when documents come into his possession that show she was working for the French Government under the code-name The Silent Butterfly and had been close to exposing the truth behind Group 'A' he realises that he had been duped on more than one occasion and begins to doubt all that he had been told as well as Preston's role in it and latterly. In an unexpected finale he finds out he had also been lied to by Fitzroy-Browne and learning that friends and enemies are often one and the same and that nobody can really be trusted he is powerless to stop old scores being settled.

Download or read book The Politics of Security Sector Reform written by Magnus Ekengren and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2016-02-24 with total page 350 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Security Sector Reform (SSR) is increasingly becoming a cornerstone in international security and development cooperation. Indeed, the concept has often been seen as a panacea for many of the biggest threats to the world such as failed states, terrorism and poverty. In particular, this book focuses on the complexities of implementation of SSR across the globe and the actual and potential role for the European Union (EU) to play in SSR. As suggested in the title of the book, this involves not only opportunities, but challenges to be overcome as well. There are three core themes to this book: Policy, Policies and Practice. By presenting the themes in this particular order a greater appreciation of the influences on the process of SSR, from conception to implementation is relayed to the reader. This volume appeals to audiences interested in the EU as a global actor and the interrelationships between foreign, security, defence and development policies.
