This new paperback delves into England’s forgotten history bringing to light some of the most colorful characters and intriguing episodes of English life. England is a small country with a big history. Unfortunately, of the millions of people who have collectively made the nation what it is, the history books remember only a handful. Along the way, we lose sight of some of the most colorful characters and intriguing episodes of English life. Did you know that for three centuries no king of England spoke English as his first language? Or that Charles II spent two million pounds trying to build an English settlement in Tangiers? Can you say where England’s bloodiest battle took place? Or how the legend of King Arthur came about? If not, England’s Forgotten Past is the book for you. An entertaining tour through the forgotten episodes of English history, this new paperback edition tells a wide range of informative stories, from rogue elements in the royal family to the celebrities of yesteryear. It also looks at the everyday lives of ordinary people—those who manned the ships, worked the land, and fought the wars. Packed with fascinating facts, amusing anecdotes, tales of derring-do, and the occasional villain, England’s Forgotten Past will delight anyone interested in the rich untold history of England.

Autumn 1943 - After yet another secret mission into German-occupied Holland, John Armstrong is now the only survivor of what started out as a five-strong S.B.S. team. While he is in hiding at a farm run by Dutch Patriots, a deep, passionately powerful love suddenly explodes between John and Anna Maurik, the daughter of the absent farm owner. When the time comes for his long delayed return to Britain, John promises to marry Anna once the war is over. Will Anna manage to avoid the Gestapo until then? Will John survive his Royal Navy duties and his most dangerous S.B.S activities? Will they ever have the chance to see the beauty of John's native Lake District homeland as man and wife?

Full of gripping historical vignettes and evocative photographs, an accessible overview of the dynamic figures who resisted colonization, from India, Senegal, and Algeria to Vietnam, Kenya, and Congo. Decolonization started on the very first day of colonization. From the arrival of the Europeans, the peoples of Africa and Asia rose up. No one willingly accepts subjugation, but in order to one day regain freedom, you first and foremost need to stay alive. Faced with the Europeans’ machine guns, the colonized hit back in other ways: from civil disobedience to communist revolution, by way of soccer and literature. It was a struggle marked by infinite patience and unlimited determination, fought by heroic men and women now largely unknown. Condensing a wealth of scholarly research into short, lively chapters, Decolonization brings their extraordinary stories to light: Manikarnika Tambe, the Indian queen who led her troops into battle against the British; Mary Nyanjiru, the Kenyan activist who spearheaded a protest in Nairobi; Lamine Senghor, the Senegalese infantryman who became an anti-colonial militant in Paris; and many more. With them, a current of resistance swept the world, culminating in the independence of almost all the colonies in the 1960s. But at what price? In the atomic India of Indira Gandhi, in the Congo subjected to Mobutu’s dictatorship, or in a London shaken by the rioting of young immigrants, we can see just how crucial it is that we understand and learn from this painful history.
