Описание: The island occupied by HMAV Bounty`s descendants later became home to a fraud who, with no official remit, became a virtual dictator with an influential vision for British control over the nineteenth-century Pacific Ocean. His story reframes the way we view that period of British imperial history onto a tiny Pacific island.

Описание: This is the first scholarly account by a western historian of the Time of Troubles, the period of civil war and foreign invasion in early seventeenth-century Russia. Maureen Perrie looks at the wave of pretenders and royal impostors that swept Russia, and shows how such figures could be the vehicle for profound social protest.
