Free Download Skip Johnson, "Charleston: The Brief History of a Remarkable City"
English | ISBN: 0988711303 | 2016 | 49 pages | EPUB | 654 KB
The little book recounts the remarkable, although little-known, history of Charleston, South Carolina. It was written especially for those persons who want to learn that history in one or two easy sittings. From her earliest beginnings, Charleston has experienced the lowest of lows and the highest of highs. She has known extreme shame and extreme glory. She has been one of the world’s most hated cities and one of its most beloved. She has been attacked by the militaries of four nations, including the United States, which put her under the longest siege in modern military history. A major earthquake almost destroyed her, massive hurricanes have battered her, monster fires have ripped through her streets, and the Civil War – which she started and lost – left her destitute and helpless as thousands of visitors danced on her grave. But today Charleston is considered one of America’s jewels. Readers of major travel magazines consistently name Charleston the friendliest, most gracious, even Best City in the United States and one of the best in the world. This primer clearly answers the question; What IS it about Charleston?

Free Download An Elizabethan Adventurer: The Remarkable Life of Sir Anthony Sherley by Dan O’Sullivan
English | December 22, 2021 | ISBN: 1399007424 | 184 pages | PDF | 12 Mb
Anthony Sherley (1565-1633) was one of three brothers from a Sussex gentry family, whose adventures abroad fascinated their contemporaries. Their doings were celebrated and exaggerated in printed pamphlets and a play on the London stage, but are scarcely known today. Anthony was a soldier fighting in France and the Netherlands, and then an unsuccessful privateer, before his patron, the earl of Essex, chose him to lead a group on a mission to Ferrara, which proved abortive. Sherley then undertook on his own initiative to take his followers on a highly risky journey across Turkey to Persia. He hoped to persuade the Shah to ally with the West against their mutual enemy, Ottoman Turkey. Surprisingly, Shah Abbas the Great (1587-1629) approved the plan, and sent Sherley back to Europe as his ambassador.
