The fifteenth century was a violent age. In Queens at War, Alison Weir chronicles the five queens who got caught up in wars that changed the courses of their lives: the Hundred Years’ War between England and France, and the Wars of the Roses between the royal Houses of Lancaster and York. Against this tempestuous backdrop, Weir describes the lives of five Plantagenet queens, who occupied the consort’s throne from 1403 to 1485. Joan of Navarre was happily married to King Henry IV but was accused of witchcraft by Henry’s heir and imprisoned. Paris-born Katherine of Valois’s political marriage to Henry V was meant to bring peace between England and France. It didn’t, and Henry died during the Hundred Years’ War without ever seeing his newborn heir, Henry VI, who was wed to another French princess, Margaret of Anjou, in 1445. In the Wars of the Roses, Margaret staunchly supported her husband and son. Henry’s successor, Edward IV, became embroiled in scandal after he fell in love with and married Elizabeth Widville, mother of the tragic Princes in the Tower. The notorious Richard III usurped Edward’s throne and married Anne Neville, who died after losing her only child, forsaken by her husband. “Underpinned by extensive reading of original sources” (The Washington Post), Weir’s Medieval Queens series strips away centuries of historical mythologizing to shed light on the genuine accomplishments and bravery of these fascinating female monarchs.

Celebrated historian Dan Jones describes how the longest-reigning British royal family tore itself apart until it was finally replaced by the Tudors. Some of the greatest heroes and villains of history were thrown together in these turbulent times, from Joan of Arc to Henry V, whose victory at Agincourt marked the high point of the medieval monarchy, and Richard III, who murdered his own nephews in a desperate bid to secure his stolen crown. This was a period when headstrong queens and consorts seized power and bent men to their will. With vivid descriptions of the battles of Towton and Bosworth, where the last Plantagenet king was slain, this dramatic narrative history revels in bedlam and intrigue. It also offers a long-overdue corrective to Tudor propaganda, dismantling their self-serving account of what they called the Wars of the Roses. The best-selling author of The Plantagenets traces the 15th-century civil wars that irrevocably shaped the British crown, particularly evaluating the roles of strong women including Margaret of Anjou, Elizabeth Woodville and Margaret Beaufort in shifting power between two ruling families. Includes six maps and four genealogies.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6nyefdchfk1aedb30v97cy.jpg?v=3dc3cf70e4","L03vBmQ*00$cwkoetJXB8{RQ.lS#",2014,392,[179],{"id":180,"slug":181,"name":182},"01kkc8vydx9mrnt6z501xm33sm","dan-jones-ikdb","Dan Jones",[184,185,186],{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":21},{"id":32,"name":33,"slug":34,"is_fiction":21},{"id":40,"name":41,"slug":42,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":164,"complexity":7,"audience":90,"mood":189,"themes":191,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[190,167],"dark",[],{"id":193,"slug":194,"title":195,"description":196,"primary_cover_url":197,"cover_blurhash":198,"first_publish_year":199,"community_rating_avg":14,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":200,"authors":201,"genres":203,"series":211,"enrichment":212},"01kx7e0cztqz4wtzt8k0bxkgt0","katherine-swynford-the-story-of-john-of-gaunt-and-his-scandalous-duchess-gt1e","Katherine Swynford The Story of John of Gaunt and His Scandalous Duchess","Weir combines high drama with high passion while involving us in the domestic life of a most remarkable woman in an equally matter-of-factly compelling book.

He believed that to achieve his goal he must do something spectacular on the battlefield. Despite deliberately putting himself in extreme danger as a British Army officer in colonial wars in India and Sudan, and as a journalist covering a Cuban uprising against the Spanish, glory and fame had eluded him. Churchill arrived in South Africa in 1899, valet and crates of vintage wine in tow, there to cover the brutal colonial war the British were fighting with Boer rebels. But just two weeks after his arrival, the soldiers he was accompanying on an armored train were ambushed, and Churchill was taken prisoner. Remarkably, he pulled off a daring escape--but then had to traverse hundreds of miles of enemy territory, alone, with nothing but a crumpled wad of cash, four slabs of chocolate, and his wits to guide him. The story of his escape is incredible enough, but then Churchill enlisted, returned to South Africa, fought in several battles, and ultimately liberated the men with whom he had been imprisoned. Churchill would later remark that this period, \"could I have seen my future, was to lay the foundations of my later life.\" Millard spins an epic story of bravery, savagery, and chance encounters with a cast of historical characters—including Rudyard Kipling, Lord Kitchener, and Mohandas Gandhi—with whom he would later share the world stage. But Hero of the Empire is more than an adventure story, for the lessons Churchill took from the Boer War would profoundly affect 20th century history.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx7e8r4nffgk40fetq09ajn9.jpg?v=9db809f527","LjM?^.t7t6of~oj[oekB?uWCj@j[",2016,206,[226],{"id":227,"slug":228,"name":229},"01kk1y8s9pmvbw2ap0m22m32pd","candice-millard-3jiw","Candice Millard",[231,232,233,234,235],{"id":44,"name":45,"slug":46,"is_fiction":20},{"id":128,"name":129,"slug":130,"is_fiction":20},{"id":40,"name":41,"slug":42,"is_fiction":20},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":21},{"id":207,"name":208,"slug":209,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":164,"complexity":7,"audience":90,"mood":238,"themes":239,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[166,167],[],{"id":241,"slug":242,"title":243,"description":244,"primary_cover_url":245,"cover_blurhash":246,"first_publish_year":247,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":18,"page_count":248,"authors":249,"genres":254,"series":258,"enrichment":259},"01kx6njmxqh7g2mwf7xnwsws23","king-john-9po3","King John","King John is one of those historical characters who needs little in the way of introduction.

It began with a letter from a screenwriter, asking about a story. Your family. World War II. Nazi spies. Christine Kuehn was shocked and confused. When she asked her seventy-year-old father, Eberhard, what this could possibly be about, he stalled, deflected, demurred, and then wept. He knew this day would come. The Kuehns, a prominent Berlin family, saw the rise of the Nazis as a way out of the hard times that had befallen them. When the daughter of the family, Eberhard’s sister, Ruth, met Nazi leader Joseph Goebbels at a party, the two hit it off, and they had an affair. But Ruth had a secret—she was half Jewish—and Goebbels found out. Rather than having Ruth killed, Goebbels instead sent the entire Kuehn family to Hawaii, to work as spies half a world away. There, Ruth and her parents established an intricate spy operation from their home, just a few miles down the road from Pearl Harbor, shielding Eberhard from the truth.

Once shy and retiring, an awkward stutterer, he grew in stature and confidence under the guidance of the Duke of Buckingham; his marriage to Henrietta of Spain, originally planned to end the conflict between the two nations, became, after rocky beginnings, a true love match. Charles I is best remembered for having started the English Civil War in 1642 which led to his execution for treason, the end of the monarchy, and the establishment of a commonwealth until monarchy was restored in 1660. Hibbert's masterful biography re-creates the world of Charles I, his court, artistic patronage, and family life, while tracing the course of events that led to his execution for treason in 1649.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx7ckrk23ja9g62e8yzr7cm4.jpg?v=0e8e897e2a","L79G]$^+010L$yRiE2R.0ZIV~B^*",2007,274,[342],{"id":343,"slug":344,"name":345},"01kp3bmg05q7gt4rf362f0yxhc","christopher-hibbert-jibm","Christopher Hibbert",[347,348,349,350,351],{"id":44,"name":45,"slug":46,"is_fiction":20},{"id":128,"name":129,"slug":130,"is_fiction":20},{"id":207,"name":208,"slug":209,"is_fiction":20},{"id":40,"name":41,"slug":42,"is_fiction":20},{"id":36,"name":37,"slug":38,"is_fiction":21},[],{"pace":87,"complexity":7,"audience":90,"mood":354,"themes":355,"setting_period":7,"summary":336,"content_warnings":7},[93,142],[],{"id":357,"slug":358,"title":359,"description":360,"primary_cover_url":361,"cover_blurhash":362,"first_publish_year":363,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":18,"page_count":364,"authors":365,"genres":370,"series":379,"enrichment":380},"01kpqwnvghcsnnc40apk6v4kb9","school-for-soldiers-fii4","School for soldiers","This book offers a deep dive into the United States Military Academy, exploring its history and role in shaping military leaders.

As a child, Madden lived a life of extravagance, from her exclusive private school to her equestrian trophies and designer shoe-brand name. But under the surface was a wild instability. The only child of parents continually battling drug and alcohol addictions, Madden confronted her environment alone. Facing a culture of assault and objectification, she found lifelines in the desperately loving friendships of fatherless girls. With unflinching honesty and lyrical prose, spanning from 1960s Hawai'i to the present-day struggle of a young woman mourning the loss of a father while unearthing truths that reframe her reality, Long Live the Tribe of Fatherless Girls is equal parts eulogy and love letter. It's a story about trauma and forgiveness, about families of blood and affinity, both lost and found, unmade and rebuilt, crooked and beautiful.

Born in splendor difficult to imagine today, she endured a lifetime of relentless tragedy with courage and exceptional powers of adjustment. The Last Grand Duchess is a valuable account of the final decades of the house of Romanov as seen through the eyes of its last surviving member. Through Olga, we meet Queen Victoria, George V of England, Rasputin, Mrs. Anderson - on whose story the movie Anastasia was made - and other impostors who plagued the exiled duchess with false hope. In this official memoir, Ian Vorres captures the loneliness and violence of Olga's years in Russia, her loveless first marriage to Prince Peter of Oldenburg, her years of exile in England and Denmark, and her final settlement with her second husband and family in Canada.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6nb389wtpv472vsskg8f5w.jpg?v=8f7818a0d3","LBLymSE1Q8rt4mRi%MxvY+xb*0xu",1964,256,[675],{"id":676,"slug":677,"name":678},"01kx6nb384563fnrc58ymtnd9m","ian-vorres-idbg","Ian Vorres",[680,684,685,686],{"id":681,"name":682,"slug":683,"is_fiction":21},34,"Historical Romance","historical-romance",{"id":132,"name":133,"slug":134,"is_fiction":21},{"id":44,"name":45,"slug":46,"is_fiction":20},{"id":40,"name":41,"slug":42,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":589,"complexity":7,"audience":90,"mood":689,"themes":691,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[214,690],"melancholic",[692,693],"forbidden-love","multiple-povs",{"id":695,"slug":696,"title":697,"description":698,"primary_cover_url":699,"cover_blurhash":700,"first_publish_year":628,"community_rating_avg":395,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":701,"authors":702,"genres":711,"series":716,"enrichment":717},"01kx6nsge3ekzh6ggkj314rnmf","the-presidents-aomn","The Presidents","The Presidents collects the complete rankings from C-SPAN's Historians Surveys of Presidential Leadership, the long-running poll in which leading presidential historians and biographers rate every U.S. president across categories such as persuasive ability, moral authority, and administrative skill.\n\nBuilt from decades of interviews C-SPAN founder Brian Lamb and Susan Swain conducted with presidential biographers, the book profiles each of the 43 men who had served as president at the time of the 2017 survey, ordering them from the highest-ranked (Abraham Lincoln) to the lowest (James Buchanan). Each chapter runs roughly a dozen pages, combining basic biography with the historians' reasoning for a president's placement. Contributors include historians such as Douglas Brinkley and Richard Norton Smith.\n\nDonald Trump is not included in the rankings, since his term was still in progress when the survey and book were completed, though the closing pages touch on how historians were beginning to assess his presidency.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6nsgehp0vdqs8t12m2m6hv.jpg?v=d614774246","L15rPwWY4n.T+pjYS*RN00aIbwS6",560,[703,707],{"id":704,"slug":705,"name":706},"01kx6nsgecexnj6fqc8hggkza6","brian-lamb-q5yi","Brian Lamb",{"id":708,"slug":709,"name":710},"01kx6nsged92gvzbsbys0tnt18","susan-swain-auiy","Susan Swain",[712,713,714,715],{"id":610,"name":611,"slug":612,"is_fiction":20},{"id":44,"name":45,"slug":46,"is_fiction":20},{"id":40,"name":41,"slug":42,"is_fiction":20},{"id":207,"name":208,"slug":209,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":7,"complexity":7,"audience":90,"mood":718,"themes":719,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[93,142],[],{"id":721,"slug":722,"title":723,"description":724,"primary_cover_url":725,"cover_blurhash":726,"first_publish_year":464,"community_rating_avg":428,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":7,"authors":727,"genres":732,"series":738,"enrichment":739},"01kx2a91wdrsvq8m8cab2zp44t","thoughts-from-walden-pond-by-henry-david-thoreau-rfnd","Thoughts from Walden Pond by Henry David Thoreau","This contribution to European historical literature--based on extensive research in Madrid--provides a clear and dispassionate account of successive ecclesiastical-secular conflicts and controversies, and deftly summarizes the diverse ideological and intellectual currents of the times. Nowhere in Europe has the Roman Catholic Church exerted a more mystical hold on the life of a nation than it has in Spain. Yet this hold has not been unchanging or unchallenged. By the mid-eighteenth century the Church was no longer the only legitimate source of authority, the all-pervasive presence that it had been, most forcefully in the late fifteenth and sixteenth centuries. Still, its power remained formidable. The Spanish Church imposed standards of conduct over the entire range of society, from the aristocracy to the peasant masses, and it possessed the material resources necessary to maintain an elaborate ecclesiastical network that influenced every aspect of Spanish life. The heart of the book deals with the reactions of the Church to the dramatic, sometimes violent, changes that occurred during the critical nineteenth-century period of national transition from royal absolutism to popular liberalism. The study examines the responses of the Church to the new social and political forces that could no longer be excluded or contained, among them an emergent secular--even anticlerical--culture and a developing capitalism.Callahan demonstrates that these changes engendered resentments and frustrations deep within the ecclesiastical order that persisted well into the twentieth century, notably with the Spanish Church's embrace of Franco.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kx2a91wdrsvq8m8cab2zp44t.jpg?v=40f5ef3581","LwKSg$WDoKxW~8jHR+WV%JWCsmWp",[728],{"id":729,"slug":730,"name":731},"01kjqz7rn338hakt9x7rffhvn0","henry-david-thoreau-lynz","Henry David Thoreau",[733,734],{"id":44,"name":45,"slug":46,"is_fiction":20},{"id":735,"name":736,"slug":737,"is_fiction":20},93,"Nature","nature",[],{"pace":589,"complexity":7,"audience":90,"mood":740,"themes":742,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[142,741],"philosophical",[],{"id":744,"slug":745,"title":746,"description":747,"primary_cover_url":748,"cover_blurhash":749,"first_publish_year":750,"community_rating_avg":395,"community_rating_count":15,"page_count":224,"authors":751,"genres":756,"series":760,"enrichment":761},"01kx27p2svvwepgyk3gnd4q0xm","aint-i-a-woman-5dwr","Ain't I a Woman","A world renowned author, scholar, public intellectual, and activist, bell hooks was 19 years old when she wrote *Ain't I a Woman* (published ten years later).
