The Red Fort: The story of the Indian Mutiny of 1857
ISBN: 9781916556508 / Angielski / Miękka / 2024 / 398 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. A year after the Crimean War ended, an uprising broke out in India which was to have equal impact on the balance of world power and the British Empire's role in world affairs. The revolt was against the East India Company which, not entirely against its will, had assumed responsibility for administering large parts of India. The ostensible cause of the mutiny sprang from a rumour that cartridges used by the native Sepoy troops were greased with cow's fat and pig's lard —cows being sacred to the Hindus, and pigs abhorred by the Mohammedans. But the roots of the trouble lay far deeper, and a...

The R101 airship was thought to be the model for the future, an amazing design that was 'as safe as houses. . .except for the millionth chance'.

James Leasor brilliantly reconstructs the conception and crash of this huge ship of the air with compassion for the forty-seven dead, including a cabinet minister - and only six survivors. One of the biggest disasters of British aviation history, which marked the end of commercial airships as a serious form of transport, this book also reads as a textbook of how state attempts...
