Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. A gripping story of love, death and danger in Nazi-occupied France from the bestselling author of The Throwaway Children. When Adelaide Anson-Gravetty finds out her father is not the man who raised her, she is both shocked and intrigued. Determined to find out more about her new family, she travels to the convent of Our Lady of Mercy in France to meet her aunt, the Reverend Mother. But when France falls to the German army, Adelaide and the nuns are soon in the thick of a war that threatens both their beliefs and their lives.

What readers are saying about THE SISTERS OF ST CROIX: 'I enjoyed this book from the beginning to its end. Its portrayal of the horror and brutality of war and its effect on innocent people is masterly. The description of an occupied France in the Second World War is wonderfully real and the characters are so vivid and appealing. I was captured by the strength of the prose and the pathos of the narrative. This is a story that I would thoroughly recommend to anyone' 'I was absolutely mesmerised by the pace and the depth of the story telling. A very moving story beautifully written' 'I have never been so affected by a book as I was by the Sisters of St. Croix'. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. In 1917 revolutionary fervour swept through Russia, ending centuries of imperial rule and instigating political and social changes that would lead to the formation of the Soviet Union. Arising out of proletariat discontent with the Tsarist autocracy and Lenin's proclaimed version of a Marxist ideology, the revolutionary period saw a complete overhaul of Russian politics and society and led directly to the ensuing civil war. The Soviet Union eventually became the world's first communist state and the events of 1917 proved to be one of the turning-points in world history, setting in motion a chain of events which would change the entire course of the twentieth century. Geoffrey Swain provides a concise yet thorough overview of the revolution and the path to civil war. By looking, with fresh perspectives, on the causes of the revolution, as well as the international response, Swain provides a new interpretation of the events of 1917, published to coincide with the 100th anniversary of the revolution.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. This book discusses the historical, political, economic and cultural aspects of the media in Britain. Focusing on the national media landscape, British Media in a Global Era examines the development and role of the British media within a European and international context. British Media in a Global Era explains the complex patterns of transnational ownership of British media and examines the important aspects of media policy contextualised within internationally observed trends, such as censorship, freedom of expression and right to reply. It introduces students to current debates on regulation, the changing nature of the Public Service Broadcasting system and the commercialisation of the 'new media'. It also addresses two largely neglected areas: the role of the public in the communication process and the role of non-mainstream or 'alternative' media in Britain. Written in an accessible manner, this is a vital introduction to the British media for all Media Studies students. The book has been read but remains in clean condition.

Paperback. Zustand: Good. Turner, Graham (illustrator). Immortalised in the plays of Shakespeare, Henry V is the most famous and celebrated of all England's medieval monarchs. Although his most famous battles and conquests took place in France, Henry, as was common amongst medieval aristocracy, was introduced to battle at an early age when he fought with his father, Henry IV, at the battle of Shrewsbury in 1403. On his accession to the throne, Henry turned his attention towards foreign affairs and the English position in France. This title will examine Henry's key battles and sieges, how he systematically extended English control throughout northern France and how he was perceived by his contemporaries as a military leader. It will also deal with his controversial military decisions, such as the slaughter of the French prisoners at Agincourt. The book has been read but remains in clean condition.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Stalinism is one of the most contentious political issues of the 20th century. Historical enquiry has in part benefited from, in part suffered from this. Controversy has stimulated research into modern Russian history. On the one hand, political passion has all too often determined the interpretative frameworks utilized by historians. Until comparatively recently, for example, the totalitarian model was virtually unchallenged. Many researchers accepted at face value the Stalin regime's claims to monolithic efficiency. Those sympathetic to the Soviet experiment emphasized the supposed unity between the state and the people, those antipathetic to Stalinism pointed to the purges as the logical expression of dictatorship. By focusing on key themes in the history of Stalin's Russia - from the rise of the General Secretary at the end of the 1920s to the world of late Stalinism - this book takes the reader to the centre of the contemporary debate on Russia under Stalin and shows how historical enquiry has been conditioned not only by prevailing ideological fashions but also by the nature and quality of the sources available to researchers. This book is designed to be of interest to students of modern Russian history, Soviet studies or politics. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition.
