Trade Paperback. Condición: Very Good. Spine creased, light edge wear. 1987 Trade Paperback. x, 273 pp. This pioneering work, the first serious analysis of the royal household between the middle ages and the eighteenth century, examines the internal workings of the court which was key to politics, and the personnel and organisation of the private royal apartments. It presents radical reinterpretation of the period as a whole, seeing the years from 1460 to 1640 as an essential unity - the age of personal court monarchy undivided by an imaginary 'revolution in government'. …

Paperback. Condición: new. Paperback. Agent Sarah Black is back, and she's done asking permission.Scarred by the events of her first official assignment, new recruit Sarah has cut all ties with the special liaison unit known as The Pelicans. Abandoning enigmatic leader Michael on the banks of the Thames and defying all orders, she vows to finish the mission he set her . . . alone.Her dogged pursuit of the mastermind who eluded her in Georgia takes her to searing heat and civil unrest in west Africa, to a lawless land rife with war profiteering. When she hears that her mark is bankrolling a ruthless rebel leader, the only surprise is that it's her one ally, Elias, who delivers the news. How did he earn his place in the inner circle? Can she trust the intelligence he shares, that the endgame is more deadly than she could ever have imagined?With doubt thrown on Elias and no backup from the Pelicans, Sarah must rely on raw instinct to neutralise the operation and burn the network to the ground. She needs to think three moves ahead to outmanoeuvre her ruthless opponent, and in a game without rules, every move counts.But when the game is being played on a global stage with catastrophically high stakes for peace, for democracy, and for everything Sarah believes in, how far will she go to win?---------------Compulsive, taut and whip-smart, Rogue Agency is the second gripping instalment of L.D.

"MORE THAN two years after the Iraqi people were "liberated' from their internationally recognized government by an unprovoked military invasion, Iraq remains embroiled in a deadly guerrilla war, its economy and infrastructure demolished, its political life a caldron of hatred. Most tragic ~barring the human cost (both American and Iraqi) of the invasion and occupation ~ is the fact that the nations responsible for this devastation claim to be leaders of the 'free world' and defenders of Western 'civilization.' Pulling no punches, Neo~CONNED! Again examines how the Anglo~American war against Iraq results from evil intent, and is a crime of the first order. It also looks at the inadequacy of the reasons adduced for war by its promoters, and examines the hypocrisy and lawlessness of AngloAmerican conduct in terms of both the war itself and the larger, ever~expanding military response to September 11 known as the 'war on terror.' At war with the world? Much of the world sympathized with America on the morrow of the 9/11 attacks. Its aggression in the Middle East and its declaration of war on those who, if not 'for' it are 'against' it, has turned that sympathy into disgust and hostility. With contributors among the very best in their respective fields ~ journalism, political philosophy, military strategy and intelligence, international law and more ~ NeoCONNED! Again tackles the 'war on terror' and its relation to the conflict in Iraq with a candor and precision not found anywhere else. With its companion volume, Neo~CONNED!, Neo~CONNED Again is the definitive resource on the Anglo~American war in Iraq, based on a tremendous range of authors and unparalleled depth of coverage. The facts, arguments, and details in this collection ~ essential to a complete understanding of where the American government went wrong, and how ~ will benefit even readers who already see the war as a tragedy, while those who don't are certain to be persuaded. contributors = ALEXANDER COCKBURN & JEFFREY ST.
