Californian Pharaoh: A collective memoir. "The memory was still present, its images fresh from the vortex of life, still brimming with static energy waiting to be extinguished by dementia. The air was stale, I inhaled deeply. I remembered the agent's own words: "left button will signal the agent to assassinate Fidel Castro. Right button will signal our man to take you out." All right, it's done. "Are you sure you want to do this Mr. President?" a woman asked. "I'll just reincarnate someplace else," I said. ... Then the car moved by the Secret Service man, who I waved down from the aisle. My right hand gripped the remote device in my jacket pocket. I pressed the left button; it was stuck. This was typical of the CIA technology. So I pressed the right one. Of course, that one worked. It's always the right one, I thought to myself. The car neared the clearing. A faint memory lingered: "You can't say Texas doesn't love you, Mr. President." Two shots fired. One hit my neck from behind. I urged my wife, Jackie, closer; I wanted to tell her something important. Then the second one hit my head; it felt like a Stroke. Then my body became limp as I broke free from my prison of flesh and blood. . . I floated up into the air, not looking back..." Copyright 2013 Michael J. Costa, All rights reserved.

With the world watching, Prince George Alexander Louis of Cambridge, third in line of succession to the throne, was born on 22nd July 2013. The next day, his proud parents stepped out of St Mary's hospital, London, to present their baby to the excited crowds. From the beginning, the world had watched with bated breath as the charming prince and his future bride overcame the struggles of university, rumours and a brief break-up before finally reconciling and becoming engaged. The royal wedding in 2011 - watched by an incredible estimated 2 billion people worldwide - was a defining moment, not only in their young lives, but also for the perception of the monarchy. When the Palace announced the Duchess's much-anticipated pregnancy in 2012, a public frenzy surrounded the arrival of the heir to the throne. Now that the Duke has left the military to focus on his royal duties and charity work, there is already speculation as to whether George will follow in his father's footsteps, with a passion for wildlife and conservation. Packed with expert analysis and exclusive photographs, this is an essential read for royalists and romantics alike.

Queen Victoria (Hardcover): Anonymous Queen Victoria (Hardcover)

R832 Discovery Miles 8 320 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

In the year 1819 the family outlook of the British royal house was not a very bright one. The old king, George III., was lingering on in deep seclusion, a very pathetic figure, blind and imbecile. His son the Prince Regent, afterwards George IV., had not done honour to his position, nor brought happiness to any connected with him. Most of the other princes were elderly men and childless; and the Prince-Regent's only daughter, the Princess Charlotte, on whom the hopes of the nation had rested, and whose marriage had raised those hopes to enthusiasm, was newly laid in her premature grave.

R857 Discovery Miles 8 570 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

This explosive book exposes high-level corruption in London's Metropolitan Police Service following the August 1997 death of Princess Diana in Paris. Over the ensuing decade Scotland Yard carried out one of the biggest and most wide-reaching cover-ups in its history. Police Commissioners Paul Condon and John Stevens should have conducted a thorough investigation. Instead, they sought to prevent the truth of the Alma Tunnel car crash - the assassination of Princess Diana - from being revealed to the British public. Just 18 days after the crash Princess Diana's lawyer, Victor Mishcon, presented to Paul Condon documentary evidence of Diana's belief she would be killed in a car crash. Instead of investigating this, Condon locked the evidence in his office safe - and there it stayed for six years. But it is worse: this book reveals that in 2007 - the year following the death of Mishcon - Condon and his assistant, David Veness, fabricated a document to "show" that Mishcon agreed with the suppression of the evidence. They used this fabricated document - with Condon's forged signature - to support their perjury at the 2007-8 inquest, where they falsely claimed Mishcon had insisted on the suppression of the Diana evidence. Corruption at Scotland Yard shows that Lord John Stevens, Lord Paul Condon and Sir David Veness colluded and lied repeatedly during their extensive inquest cross-examinations. The book also reveals that Stevens presided over one of the largest sham investigations in the history of British policing - Operation Paget. An operation that the public believed was designed to investigate the Paris crash was instead used to cover up the truth of what occurred - protecting the perpetrators of the assassination of Princess Diana. This book reveals that on the very day of the crash Condon and Veness deliberately appointed Jeffrey Rees - a corrupt officer - to head the investigation, even though he was not available and had a clear conflict of interest. Corruption at Scotland Yard exposes police corruption involving top police on a scale that will shock most members of the British public.

Assassination of the Archduke (Paperback): Greg King, Sue Woolmans Assassination of the Archduke (Paperback)
Greg King, Sue Woolmans
R673 R602 Discovery Miles 6 020 Save R71 (11%) Ships in 18 - 22 working days

Drawing on unpublished letters and rare primary sources, King and Woolmans tell the true story behind the tragic romance and brutal assassination that sparked World War I

In the summer of 1914, three great empires dominated Europe: Germany, Russia, and Austria-Hungary. Four years later all had vanished in the chaos of World War I. One event precipitated the conflict, and at its hear was a tragic love story. When Austrian heir Archduke Franz Ferdinand married for love against the wishes of the emperor, he and his wife Sophie were humiliated and shunned, yet they remained devoted to each other and to their children. The two bullets fired in Sarajevo not only ended their love story, but also led to war and a century of conflict.

Set against a backdrop of glittering privilege, "The Assassination of the Archduke" combines royal history, touching romance, and political murder in a moving portrait of the end of an era. One hundred years after the event, it offers the startling truth behind the Sarajevo assassinations, including Serbian complicity and examines rumors of conspiracy and official negligence. Events in Sarajevo also doomed the couple's children to lives of loss, exile, and the horrors of Nazi concentration camps, their plight echoing the horrors unleashed by their parents' deaths. Challenging a century of myth, "The Assassination of the Archduke" resonates as a very human story of love destroyed by murder, revolution, and war.

R509 Discovery Miles 5 090 Ships in 18 - 22 working days

King Alfred. Everybody knows that he is called "the Great," but few remember why. Forgetfulness is strange, for few men have led lives so full of physical, mental, and spiritual adventure, or influenced in so many ways the lives of people in every part of the globe. The Golden Dragon is his fascinating and moving story, told afresh with the aid of recent archaeological evidence and research in four languages. Alfred's achievements have melted cynicism. Gibbon called him "the greatest of English kings"; Hume, "the greatest man in history." Voltaire declared, "I know not whether there has ever been a man on earth worthier of posterity's respect." When his kingdom was reduced to thirty acres, he fought back with such courage and genius that he expelled the Viking invaders and made possible the saving of Western civilization. His list of accomplishments is amazing: transcendent diplomat, Europe's greatest naval designer, notable architect, law giver, founder of the oldest literary tradition in the Occident, originator of a system of public education, and producer of translations that have endured a thousand years. The author's research led him to the conclusion that the ninth-century English kin was the superior of Charlemagne in almost every respect, and indeed was one of the greatest geniuses Western civilization has ever produced. Alfred's courage, faith, and temperance are enduring examples for modern men.

The acclaimed biography by Jeffrey Robinson, now revised and updated to coincide with the major motion picture starring Nicole Kidman as Princess Grace. It was one of the most famous romances of the 20th century-Europe's most eligible bachelor, Prince Rainier of Monaco, and America's most beautiful movie star, the Academy Award-winning actress Grace Kelly, fell in love against the backdrop of the closest thing the modern world has to a magical kingdom, the French Riviera's Principality of Monaco. Told with affection and humor, and written with the unprecedented cooperation of Prince Rainier III and his children, Prince Albert, Princess Caroline, and Princess Stephanie, Grace of Monaco takes readers beneath the surface glitz and the glamour of Monte Carlo for a never-to-be-forgotten portrait of the House of Grimaldi.
