In the Russia of the tsars, people who criticized or questioned the autocratic prerogatives of the sovereign were brutally suppressed and sometimes actively persecuted. So imbedded was this official hostility to anyone hoping to change or even influence government policy, that even the most high-minded reformers came to understand that the only way they could succeed was to overthrow the regime. The author describes the activities of the most important dissidents and agitators from the reign of Ivan the Terrible to Nicholas II and the Communist Revolution in 1917. Many of these fascinating individuals were serious activists endeavoring to improve society; others were opportunistic scoundrels and adventurers. The author explores the causes that provoked them and the consequences they faced, and explains how time and time again the tsars were goaded into mistakes and over-reaction.

LONGLISTED FOR THE 2019 ORWELL PRIZE FOR POLITICAL WRITING 'Davies's absorbing study serves up just enough sensationalism - and eccentricity - along with its serious inquiry' SUNDAY TIMES '[A] revealing account of the jail's 164-year history' DAILY TELEGRAPH, 5* review 'Insightful and thought-provoking and makes for a ripping good read' JEREMY CORBYN 'A much-needed and balanced history' OBSERVER 'Davies explores how society has dealt with disobedient women - from suffragettes to refugees to women seeking abortions - for decades, and how they've failed to silence those who won't go down without a fight' STYLIST Society has never known what to do with its rebellious women. Those who defied expectations about feminine behaviour have long been considered dangerous and unnatural, and ever since the Victorian era they have been removed from public view, locked up and often forgotten about. Many of these women ended up at HM Prison Holloway, the self-proclaimed 'terror to evil-doers' which, until its closure in 2016, was western Europe's largest women's prison. First built in 1852 as a House of Correction, Holloway's women have come from all corners of the UK - whether a patriot from Scotland, a suffragette from Huddersfield, or a spy from the Isle of Wight - and from all walks of life - socialites and prostitutes, sporting stars and nightclub queens, refugees and freedom fighters. They were imprisoned for treason and murder, for begging, performing abortions and stealing clothing coupons, for masquerading as men, running brothels and attempting suicide. In Bad Girls, Caitlin Davies tells their stories and shows how women have been treated in our justice system over more than a century, what crimes - real or imagined - they committed, who found them guilty and why. It is a story of victimization and resistance; of oppression and bravery. From the women who escaped the hangman's noose - and those who didn't - to those who escaped Holloway altogether, Bad Girls is a fascinating look at how disobedient and defiant women changed not only the prison service, but the course of history.

The rebellion is on the verge of being crushed. For two years the British army has had their way with the volunteers who make up the Continental Army fighting for American independence. Yet, the seasoned war machine of King George III couldn't quite finish the Yankees off, until now. It is the fall of 1777 and “Gentleman” Johnny Burgoyne, a General in the British army, is about to launch a grand assault down the waterways connecting the Hudson River to the rest of the colonies. He isn't alone. Along with thousands of professional soldiers, he has acquired the help of the Iroquois who are lead by a fearsome, blood-thirsty brave named Anachout. Standing in Burgoyne's way is a dispirited, unprepared, and poorly managed Continental Army stationed at the legendary Fort Ticonderoga. Burgoyne's attack on them will be simple, quick, and decisive. He thought it would be easy. He guaranteed victory. However, he was in for a surprise.Thomas Bowman wants to go to war. Ever since the patriots of Boston clashed with the British regulars at Lexington he has been anxious to grab his rifle and report for duty. His problem isn't a lack of courage or determination, it is his father. Thomas refuses to leave him at home, and his father wants nothing to do with what he believes is a fools' errand. Fate forces both into action. Some people go to war; others have it thrust upon them.Mary Chapman's peaceful life is shattered by the attack of an Iroquois war party. Watching in horror as her family and town is ruthlessly exterminated; she vows to bring those responsible to justice. Bound together by events beyond their control, Thomas and Mary flee for their lives towards the safe haven of Fort Ticonderoga. They will soon be caught up in an epic struggle, where at its heart, American independence is at stake.The Stand at Saratoga; Rebels, Renegades, and Red Coats is the first book in a two book series that reveals the heart thumping tale of the heroes, the villains, and those in between, who clashed in one of the most important battles ever fought on American soil.

What does the media coverage of a crisis situation reveal about the nature of dominant-minority relations locally, regionally, and nationally? Sandra Lambertus asks this question of the media coverage of the largest RCMP operation in Canadian history - the 1995 Gustafsen Lake Native Indian standoff. Drawing from extensive newspaper, television, and radio news products, legal and law enforcement documents, ethnographic interviews with 26 journalists, as well as RCMP, and Native leaders, Lambertus examines the construction and national dissemination of vilifying stereotyped portrayals of Native people. The ethnographic component pushes the standard of media analysis, bringing to light previously unconsidered aspects of media representations of minorities: media and law enforcement processes, frameworks of the news makers, face presentation strategies, information control, and exchange relations in news-gathering. The investigation shows how the values and perspectives of local communities, media, and law enforcement became overshadowed by 'outsiders' during the course of the event and the serious effects of the media coverage on specific audiences and ultimately, Canadian society. The study culminates with an assessment of the structural elements that contributed to the damaging media portrayals: media bias, competition, cooperation, empowerment, and cultural misperceptions. Wartime Images, Peacetime Wounds opens new avenues for studies of minorities in the news and for the study of news media in general.
