	<title>The Gest of Robyn Hode: A Critical and Textual Commentary</title>
	<link>http://www.free-ebooks.net/ebook/The-Gest-of-Robyn-Hode-A-Critical-and-Textual-Commentary</link>
	<description><![CDATA[The "Gest of Robyn Hode," in print by 1535, was the most substantial early tale of Robin Hood, telling of how he rescued a knight from being bankrupted by the church, captured then later killed the Sheriff of Nottingham, won a great archery contest, was reconciled to the King, and died. This volume includes a critically re-edited text of the "Gest," a modernization, vocabulary, extensive notes, and an introduction setting it in historical context (including a demonstration that the King of the "Gest" is Edward -- probably Edward II -- and not Richard I). Also includes texts of many other writings of the "Robin Hood Period" and assorted illustrations.<script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/FreeE-booksFree-ebooksnet?i=http://free-ebooks.net/goto.php?id=1368474910" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>]]></description>

	<title>The Egg Breakers - Counterterrorism in Sub-Saharan Africa</title>
	<link>http://www.free-ebooks.net/ebook/The-Egg-Breakers-Counterterrorism-in-Sub-Saharan-Africa</link>
	<description><![CDATA[It is not generally known in the West that Africa has a long tradition of counter-terrorism since the 1950s. For several decades Sub-Saharan African states like Colonial Kenya, Rhodesia and Apartheid South Africa regularly defeated terrorism with limited resources. This is a study into the world of counterterrorism and counterinsurgency in Sub-Saharan Africa. He also warns on the lack of solid intelligence in the war on terror from Sub-Saharan Africa and the reasons why it is not as good as it could and should be. This book is not fiction.<script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/FreeE-booksFree-ebooksnet?i=http://free-ebooks.net/goto.php?id=1366550326" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>]]></description>

	<title>World War Two, Cause and Effect</title>
	<link>http://www.free-ebooks.net/ebook/World-War-Two-Cause-and-Effect</link>
	<description><![CDATA[An excellently researched document that is rich in factual detail.  Even people who have never felt the need to delve into the history of WW2 would find the information of great interest.  The writing is didactic and the facts could be used as mnemonics for the reader to conduct his or her own research. 

The author has strengthened the historical detail by analysing the various strengths and weaknesses of some of the generals as well as analysing the strengths and weaknesses of the campaigns themselves.  The author has also raised alternatives to the various actions in the form of “what ifs”.  This brings the reader into the present era, answering questions that the reader would indubitably raise upon reading the historical narratives. <script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/FreeE-booksFree-ebooksnet?i=http://free-ebooks.net/goto.php?id=1353148278" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>]]></description>

	<title>Treason: The Violation of Trust</title>
	<link>http://www.free-ebooks.net/ebook/Treason-The-Violation-of-Trust</link>
	<description><![CDATA["Treason" is the story of William Palmer and his descendants who were among the first settlers in colonial North America. They were Puritans in the 17th Century, Quakers in the 18th Century, part of the Loyalist Diaspora to Shelburne, Nova Scotia after the American Revolution, and Canadian soldiers in the trenches of World War I. Treason is about the life and times of the Palmers, of the politic individuals who held sway, and the cause and effect of their use and abuse of power.<script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/FreeE-booksFree-ebooksnet?i=http://free-ebooks.net/goto.php?id=1352671003" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>]]></description>

	<description><![CDATA[The sites of Mesoamerica's incredible past; the indigenous aborigines without any outside influence had built cities of a beauty and size unparalleled in Europe at that time. It has been said that America is a continent without history, the stupidity of this comment is self evident when confronted by the archaeological sites of these mighty cities of such grace and beauty, and after listening to some of the colourful myths and legends I became enthralled, in particular after hearing the legend of a Toltec god named Quetzalcoatl (Plumed Serpent) he was described as a black bearded white man, who appeared a thousand years before the European invasion, he was a teacher, inventor, architect and painter.<script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/FreeE-booksFree-ebooksnet?i=http://free-ebooks.net/goto.php?id=1332439564" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>]]></description>

	<title>The Intent</title>
	<link>http://www.free-ebooks.net/ebook/The-Intent</link>
	<description><![CDATA[Newly released historical novel tells tragic World War II love story and closely examines the importance of virtuous and corrupt intentions.
 
A young German woman's life changes forever during World War II when she falls in love with an American soldier whose life she saves; historically accurate events in both Germany and the U.S. are interwoven throughout the book
 
Jϋrgen D. Beck explores the topics of vice and virtue in his new historical novel The Intent. This heartfelt and poignant story, at its core, asks readers to ponder the following question: What is the intent of the heart? Notes Beck, “To some extent, the book is born from my need to reconcile postwar years in my native Germany as a young boy.”
 
To that end, Beck’s novel returns readers to Germany during World War II.<script src="http://feeds.feedburner.com/~s/FreeE-booksFree-ebooksnet?i=http://free-ebooks.net/goto.php?id=1322157954" type="text/javascript" charset="utf-8"></script>]]></description>
