A story of pursuit, retribution and disaster at sea
The story of the mutiny of the crew of the Bounty led by Fletcher
Christian is well known. That story and Captain Bligh's endurance
in an open boat is available from Leonaur. The Royal Navy, however,
were not about to allow such an outrage go unpunished and it
despatched HMS Pandora to bring the culprits to account. The
Pandora's voyage-told here in two contrasting accounts-is no less
remarkable than that of the Bounty itself. After many trials
including the capture of some of the mutineers it too ended in
disaster. An essential book for all those interested in the Royal
Navy during the great age of sail.
Thoroughly revised and updated, this widely used text offers a
concise introduction to the American legal system for students
without a legal background. The book's coverage is
cross-disciplinary, informed by the literature of law, business
administration and the social sciences, especially public
administration and policy. Its goal is to give non-lawyers in all
these areas a lucid overview of the workings of the American legal
system as it may affect individuals and organizations in their
interactions with each other and the environment.Unlike longer,
more expensive competing works, "The Dynamics of Law" presents its
subject with clarity and precision, and minimal use of legal terms.
It offers clear explanations of how to brief a case and how
statutes and regulations are codified in the United States. Study
problems and review questions in each chapter, drawn from legal
literature as well as general interest articles and books, are
designed to stimulate classroom discussion.

Stride control (striding) is an essential part of any rider's
development when jumping obstacles, and jumping them well, is a
goal. Understanding and implementing stride control (being able to
adjust the number of strides before and between fences) improves a
horse's rideability and allows the rider to further improve the
horse's technique over an obstacle. Jen Marsden Hamilton discovered
striding from the master himself: former US Show Jumping Chef
d'Equipe credits her as being the first student to whom he taught
the method that he'd learned from Bertalan De Nemethy, one of his
mentors. Now, after coaching countless riders and horses around the
world in the striding techniques that brought her success during
her own impressive competitive career, Hamilton has compiled her
knowledge in a concise book of exercises and insightful strategies.
This fun, approachable guide will help all riders train with
correctness and form good habits at home so they can be stars at
their next jumping or eventing competition. Exercises include
detailed set-up instructions and illustrations for reference; clear
discussion of the purpose and strategy for the training session;
and helpful tips, to ensure all involved are benefiting from the
lesson. Throughout, Hamilton's straight-talk and wry humour
provides entertainment as well as advice, providing an all-around
superb guide to this necessary jumping skill.
