Product Description
In one of the ironies of history, the French Revolution led to the execution of Louis XVI and the abolition of the monarchy but also to the empire of Napoleon Bonaparte. Born into an impoverished noble family in Ajaccio in Corsica, Napoleon's astonishing military career led him to crowning himself emperor and setting up a dynasty. Three of his brothers, Jerome, Joseph and Louis, became kings of French satellites, and, by divorcing Josephina and contacting a dynastic marriage with Marie-Louise, the daughter of the Austrian emperor, Napoleon himself staked his claim to be accepted by the other European monarchs. Following the military defeats that ended his empire, his own son, Napoleon II, died young and in exile, but the dynasty sprang back into power under his nephew, Louis Napoleon, who became Napoleon III. He also died in exile, after the defeat by Germany in 1870, while his only son, the Prince Imperial, was killed tragically in the Zulu War. The "Bonapartes" shows the lasting influence exercised by France's Fourth Dynasty. ... Read more

Product Description
Take a deep breath.

Close your eyes.

Imagine the one human being in the world you feel closest to; the one human being you feel most bonded to. It might be your mother or father. It could be your friend, lover or child. Who is it? Get a clear picture in your mind of that person.

Now extend your imagination further. Stretch it to its limits.

Pretend you are a constituent of a clandestine government alliance. Throughout your career you have accepted and without question carried out highly secretive missions. Often this has involved taking a person's life. You do the work for the greater good of mankind, regardless of how it scars your soul. You do it because you have a specialized set of skills, and a patriot's commitment to duty. Someone must do it and that someone is you!

As usual you have been assigned and accepted a mission. But, this time, it is more complex. The mission is to assassinate that person you are closest to.

Recall their picture. Now blast it to ruination in your mind.

Could you assassinate that person?

There is no easy answer.

Duty says that you must.

Love tells you to abort the task.

What will you do?

In THE LAST MISSION Darren Black has to make this choice.

Part of an elite Marine Force Recon unit thirty years in the past, Darren Black's closest friend and fellow Marine, Mike Nolan is taken prisoner in South East Asia. Transformed over time, through a complex series of events involving torture, love treachery and revenge, Nolan defects to the opposition. It is a logical progression, an understandable combination of seduction and circumstance, which create his crossing. He becomes an active but publicly suppressed figure in Asian battle. Nolan eventually evolves to a being of obscurity, simply, another tragedy of war. The powers that be perceive his legacy, best melted into the footnotes of history. However, that is not to be. The years pass. Unexpectedly, Nolan surfaces as a venus-fly-trap of political intrigue. Darren Black is assigned to assure that Nolan dies unnoticed. The question is will he carry out his orders or, will he let his friend walk? Either way, for Darren Black, it is THE LAST MISSION. ... Read more

Product Description

Many writers of the late nineteenth and early twentieth centuries emphasized the virtues of early rural pioneers and life on the land as a general criticism of what they perceived to be the negative, alienating influence of Ontario's rapid urban and industrial expansion.Such work often highlighted the difficulties the recent emigrant faced: the clearing of forest and the breaking of new ground, the isolation and long Canadian winters; however they in turn celebrated the progress demonstrated in the pioneer's domination over nature, the establishment of thriving communities and the extension of transportation networks.William Wye Smith, a popular nineteenth century Upper Canadian poet, was no exception.

Smith prepared his Canadian Reminiscences, a hand-written compilation of anecdotes collected during his lifetime that relate to his experience as journalist, clergyman and son of Scottish settlers, to provide his own unique perspective of pioneer life. This fully annotated version of Smith's unpublished manuscript highlights Smith's unwitting testimony to the social life of the province, his relationship to the construction and maintenance of Scottish and Canadian identity, as well as his position in literary history.
