Churchill and Secret Service by David Stafford Churchill and Secret Service by David Stafford PDF, ePub eBook D0wnl0ad Winston Churchill believed passionately in the value of secret intelligence - in times of war, of course, but also in times of peace.

MacCormack: Webster's Timeline History, 1812 - 2007 by Icon Group International MacCormack: Webster's Timeline History, 1812 - 2007 by Icon Group International PDF, ePub eBook D0wnl0ad Webster's bibliographic and event-based timelines are comprehensive in scope, covering virtually all topics, geographic locations and people.

Luther the Reformer: The Story of the Man and His Career, Second Edition by James M Kittleson Luther the Reformer: The Story of the Man and His Career, Second Edition by James M Kittleson PDF, ePub eBook D0wnl0ad For nearly thirty years, James M. Kittelson's Luther the Reformer has been the standard biography of Martin Luther. Like Roland Bainton's biography of the generation before, Kittelson's volume is the one known by thousands of students, pastors, and interested readers as the biography that gave them the details of this dramatic man and his history. The accolades were well deserved. Fair, insightful, and detailed without being overwhelming, Kittelson was able to negotiate a "middle way" between the many directions of historical research and present a more complete chronological picture of Luther than many had yet portrayed. For this revised edition, Hans H. Wiersma has made an outstanding text even better. The research is updated, and the text is revised ...

Gossip, Sexuality and Scandal in France (1610-1715) (Medieval and Early Modern French Studies) by Nicholas Hammond Gossip, Sexuality and Scandal in France (1610-1715) (Medieval and Early Modern French Studies) by Nicholas Hammond PDF, ePub eBook D0wnl0ad This volume is the first book-length study devoted to gossip in early modern France. Whereas many works that focus on other countries and periods have concentrated on the relationship between gossip and women, none has explored the crucial link between gossip and same-sex desire.
