Luxury Toys for Men
“It’s a man’s world,” sang James Brown in 1966. Honoring this maxim, this book was made for men who relish the finer things in life. It spans everything from neat technological gimmicks and exclusive watches to extraordinarily fast cars, focusing on exactly the type of luxury that makes the “stronger sex’s” heart beat faster.
Thinking the selection shown in this book consists of mere “luxury” items, however, would be doing it an injustice. Instead, the products put together here are all stunning examples of how emotion and finesse can be combined with spectacular aesthetic purity. Seemingly impossible childhood dreams of adventure on air, land and sea suddenly enter the realm of the possible: diving with sharks, heliskiing on slopes covered with virginal powder snow—even flying into space, thanks to multibillionaire Richard Branson, a high achiever in his own right when it comes to making dreamlike luxury adventures possible, and Virgin Galactic. It goes without saying that finesse plays a major role in this book. After all, men are known to have a thing for details and technological know-how in every aspect of life. But even knowing this, the pages that follow will surely go far beyond most men’s expectations: while a running theme of top-of-the-line high-tech luxury might be anticipated, the sheer grandeur that characterizes many of the products shown here is something that defies the boundaries of imagination.The selection includes, for instance, a number of inimitable timepieces created by the world’s leading watchmakers. These watches combine the incomparable aesthetic elegance of their exterior with technical precision and utmost exclusivity, standing as proof of their owners’ true connoisseurship. Meanwhile, several mega and super yachts leave a lasting impression all of their own with unmatched flair and state-of-the-art technology. The WHY super yacht, designed by yacht maker Wally together with high fashion house Hèrmes, is a prime example. Equipped with an environmentally-conscious thermal system and large solar panels on its roof areas, this one-of-a-kind ship brings a whole new level of sustainability to the luxury market without skimping on high-end comfort. “You see, man made the cars to take us over the road.” A series of high-speed marvels engineered for the road come up with dynamically powerful designs and sports elegance leading the way: for example Mercedes- Benz’s SLS AMG gull-wing triumph and the Bentley Continental Supersports Convertible. True: speed and power aren’t everything, but a brief look at the technical specifications of these four-wheeled gems is more than enough to capture anyone’s imagination.
The scope of the products shown throughout this volume represents a veritable kaleidoscope of high-end taste: from the Gold Bike (the name says it all) to luxury jets; from handmade belt buckles to private movie theaters.
“And after man has made everything, everything he can. You know that man makes money

1453
A detailed account of the siege and fall of Constantinople in 1453, a watershed year that closed the book, once and for all, on the Roman Empire and confirmed for Europeans their worst fears about an expanding Ottoman Empire.Anthony Kaldellis offers a new narrative of the siege and fall of Constantinople in 1453, a watershed year that closed the book, once and for all, on the Roman Empire and confirmed for Europeans their worst fears about an expanding Ottoman Empire. By the fifteenth century, Constantinople had seen better days, but it was still a vibrant center of learning, worship, commerce, and information. 1453 sketches the tense but exciting shared world of Italians, Turks, and Romans that was thrown into crisis by Mehmed II''s decision to conquer the city. Kaldellis showcases a detailed reconstruction following events on a day-by-day basis, pulling from gripping eye-witness testimonies in Latin, Italian, Greek, Russian, and Turkish. He weighs the strategies of both the attackers and defenders, and proves that, contrary to the fatalism that marks almost all narratives written with hindsight, in reality the defense was hardly a lost cause. The defenders knew exactly what they were doing. They were willing to risk their lives, but it was not their intention to become martyrs. Instead, it was the sultan who was scrambling to neutralize a seemingly impregnable defense. That he did so was a testament to his ingenuity and tenacity.The final chapters of 1453 trace the fate of the vanquished and their captivity. It also weighs the impact of the city''s fall on the conquerors, the conquered, and on world history. 1453 was not merely a symbol for the passing of the Middle Ages and the onset of early modernity: it changed the very nature of the Ottoman empire and redirected the transmission of cultural legacies, especially those of Greek classical scholarship. The fall of Constantinople is therefore a nexus of converging pathways between east and west, medieval and modern, ends and beginnings.

The Cherokee War of 1776
The forgotten history of the US war against the Cherokee offers a crucial reframing of America's origin story. Americans remember 1776 as the year liberty was declared, the moment they cast off tyranny and proclaimed the self-evident truths of equality and freedom. But that same summer, as patriots celebrated their defiant new nation, American armies launched another campaign—this one aimed at destroying the Cherokee nation. The Cherokee War of 1776 recasts America's founding moment by tracing the importance of westward ambition and settler violence to the origins of the Revolutionary War. In this gripping and sobering book, historian Kevin Kokomoor uncovers the rarely acknowledged war waged by the emerging United States against the Cherokee people just days after the Declaration of Independence was signed. Far from a spontaneous frontier skirmish, this war was a coordinated, state-backed campaign with a clear aim: seize Indigenous land and crush Native resistance. Many of the very men who championed liberty on parchment simultaneously advocated for the wholesale destruction of a sovereign Native nation. At the heart of this story is Cherokee resistance, which was strategic, determined, and deeply rooted in community dynamics. Figures like Dragging Canoe emerged to lead a movement that endured long after American armies had burned Cherokee towns to the ground. Kokomoor foregrounds Cherokee voices, motivations, and resilience, challenging the notion that they were merely pawns in a colonial struggle and forcing us to reckon with the real costs of independence and the long fight for Indigenous sovereignty.

A Concise History of Spain
Modern Spain has developed from a complex history, a diverse population, and continual contact with outside influences. This updated and revised volume moves from prehistoric times to the present, incorporating recent scholarship and focusing on politics, society, economy, culture, and personalities. Written in an engaging style, it introduces key themes that have shaped Spanish history. These include its varied landscapes and climate zones; the impact of waves of human migrations; and Spain's importance as a bridge between the Atlantic and the Mediterranean, between Europe and Africa, and between Europe and Latin America. Another key theme is religion, particularly militant Catholic Christianity, its centuries of conflict with Islam and Protestantism, and debates over the place of religion in modern Spanish life. Illustrations, maps, and a guide to further information about major cultural figures, books to read, and places of interest make the history of this fascinating country come alive.

A People's History of London
For nearly 2,000 years, London has been a breeding ground for radical ideas, home to thinkers, heretics and rebels. A People's History of London presents fascinating portraits of the heroic idealists who made the city their home. Lindsey German and John Rees bring to life the dissident priest John Wycliff and the Levellers' Civil War struggle. They delve into the travails of the silk weavers, match girls and dockers who crusaded for workers' rights. And they recount the Battle of Cable Street, where East Enders took on Oswald Mosley's Blackshirts. This updated edition recounts the battles of recent years: the Grenfell disaster, the inspiring Palestine movement, and the fight for a city fit for its people, not one hobbled by developers and landlords.
