Story
We think we know the story of the Titanic—the once majestic and supposedly unsinkable ship that struck an iceberg on its maiden voyage from Britain to America—but very little has been written about the vessel’s 705 survivors. How did the events of that horrific night in the icy waters of the North Atlantic affect the lives of those who lived to tell the tale? Drawing on a wealth of previously unpublished letters, memoirs, diaries, and interviews with their family members, award-winning journalist Andrew Wilson brings to life the survivors’ colorful voices.

Story
Henry Avery of Devon pillaged a fortune from a Mughal ship off the coast of India and then vanished into thin air—and into legend. More ballads, plays, biographies and books were written about Avery’s adventures than any other pirate. His contemporaries crowned him "the pirate king" for pulling off the richest heist in pirate history and escaping with his head intact (unlike Blackbeard and his infamous Flying Gang). Avery was now the most wanted criminal on earth. To the authorities, Avery was the enemy of all mankind. To the people he was a hero.

Story
Malka was three when the German invaders forced her family into the Jewish ghetto in Volodymyr-Volynskyi, a city in present-day Ukraine. Her father was killed in the first pogrom, but before he died he said to her mother Rivka: ‘save the children’. And despite her heartbreak, that is what she set out to do. Rivka kept Malka and her two older brothers alive through eighteen traumatic months, as the ghetto got smaller and smaller. They saw the worst of humanity but there were acts of kindness too.

Story
Charles de Gaulle stands among the greatest statesmen in history. Even after the official French government collapsed under the weight of Nazi Germany, de Gaulle refused to accept defeat. He and his followers were pushed into exile, but still they fought on, never losing sight of an eventual victory over their oppressors. This book delves into Charles de Gaulle’s extraordinary journey—from leading the Free French forces during World War II to playing a key role in the rebuilding of postwar France.

Story
María Antonieta nació en Viena en 1755, hija del emperador austríaco Francisco I y de María Teresa. En mayo de 1770 contrajo matrimonio, cuando tenía catorce años, con Luis XVI de Francia. De nuevo la destreza de Stefan Zweig para el retrato y su finísima comprensión del alma humana se unen para dibujar un cuadro extraordinario de la más famosa víctima de la guillotina: su tormentosa llegada a Versalles, la frustración ante la frialdad de su esposo, su apasionado romance con el conde Von Fersen y, finalmente, el caos y el terror que la revolución trajo consigo.

Story
The KGB is one of the most famous abbreviations of the 20th century, and it has become synonymous with the shadowy and often violent actions of the Soviet Union’s secret police and internal security agencies. In fact, it is often used to refer to the Soviet state security agencies throughout its history, from the inception of the inception of the Cheka (Extraordinary Commission) in 1917 to the official elimination of the KGB in 1992.

Story
Coronada reina de Escocia con apenas seis días, María Estuardo es uno de los personajes más enigmáticos y apasionantes de su tiempo. Su vida y sus desdichas han suscitado la curiosidad de multitud de estudiosos. Educada en Francia, refinada, culta y hermosa, su adhesión al catolicismo en la turbulenta época de las revueltas protestantes, la complicada política sucesoria en Inglaterra, así como la fragilidad política del reino de Escocia la convirtieron en una traidora intrigante y en una santa de la Iglesia católica al mismo tiempo. El retrato de toda una época.

Story
Let's rewind in time to meet a certain J. Robert Oppenheimer. We'll call him the "Master of Atomic Mayhem," and for a good reason. This lad, once a lover of poetry in the academic jungles of Harvard and Cambridge, ended up playing with the building blocks of the universe in the dry, remote desert of Los Alamos. In the midst of World War II, Oppenheimer was not penning sonnets to the serene landscape. Oh no, he was orchestrating the creation of the world's deadliest weapon, the atomic bomb, under a veil of secrecy. This cocktail of doom and destruction ushered in the Atomic Age. Post-war ...

John and Elizabeth Gould sailed into Australia on a cold spring day in 1838 prepared for the most astonishing adventure of their lives. They had crossed three oceans from their London home to find the treasures of Australia's birdlife and showcase them to the outside world. Elizabeth had fallen pregnant for the seventh time at just 34, and there would be little rest for her in illustrating her husband's exquisite books that had made him England's celebrated 'Bird Man', and a force of nature in both science and publishing.

Story
For almost two decades before her or execution at Fotheringhay Castle in 1587, Mary, Queen of Scots was a prisoner. From her chambers, she wrote countless letters, many encrypted using complex ciphers to prevent her communications from being intercepted. In this way, she used language to exert her will and her influence, even while incarcerated. More than 400 years after Mary's death, the discovery of further encoded letters has led to renewed interest in the breadth of her encrypted correspondence in captivity.

On September 23, 1957, Carmen Basilio defeated Sugar Ray Robinson to win the middleweight championship of the world. His remarkable career is a story of survival and perseverance during a fascinating time in boxing history. His refusal to deal with the mobsters who controlled boxing in the 1950s is a testament to his core value of living an honorable life on his own terms. Carmen Basilio would move up in weight class for the opportunity to challenge the great Sugar Ray Robinson for his title. This action-packed story is a compelling look back at one of the most magical periods in sports ...

“Don’t cry darling. We need this baby. You will see.” With these words from her husband, Zoltán, Ibolya Rechnitzer’s fear of being pregnant during the uncertainty of wartime is somewhat eased. But in November 1942, four months after their baby, Andy, is born, Zoltán is drafted into the forced labour service of the Hungarian army and Ibolya must cope, alone, as a single mother and a Jew facing persecution in Budapest. Her son gives her a reason to fight, and Ibolya protects him fiercely during the war and after, when she must make a crucial decision that will forever alter their lives.

Story
Francisco de Asís muere en octubre de 1226 y es canonizado casi de inmediato: en 1228. Esta celeridad inusual en un proceso que suele llevar mucho más tiempo, muestra a las claras su singularidad y su relevancia. Desde entonces hasta hoy ocupa un lugar impar en el santoral católico. Según la leyenda, fue un joven puro, de escasa cultura, un alma clara y bendecida. Admirado y de enorme predicamento en su época. Sin mácula, salvo por un detalle: una imagen muy estereotipada, un relato demasiado ajustado y perfecto.La realidad es distinta, es más rica, más polémica, más vital.

But A.C. Dunne's "Ancient Greece: Those Old Greek Guys Knew a Thing or Two" isn't about to serve you the same reheated tales from your school days.
