Описание: In Victorian London at the height of the industrial revolution, Horatio Lyle is a former Special Constable with a passion for science and invention. He's also an occasional, but reluctant, sleuth. The truth is that he'd rather be in his lab tinkering with dangerous chemicals and odd machinery than running around the cobbled streets of London trying to track down stolen goods.
But when Her Majesty's Government calls, Horatio swaps his microscope for a magnifying glass, fills his pockets with things that explode and sallies forth to unravel a mystery of a singularly extraordinary nature. Thrown together with a reformed (i.e. 'caught') pickpocket called Tess, and a rebellious (within reason) young gentleman called Thomas, Lyle and his faithful hound, Tate, find themselves pursuing an ancient Chinese plate, a conspiracy that reaches to the highest levels of polite society and a dangerous enemy who may not even be human.
Solving the crime will be hard enough - surviving would be a bonus...

Runner-up for the Whitbread Biography Award of 1987.
This is the story of the man who saved Britain from invasion and gave it maritime supremacy.
Juxtaposing details of his daily life, loves, friendships and opinions with the great events which make him one of the most memorable figures in British history, Horatio Nelson gives us the admiral in all of his flawed and brilliant humanity.
Written with obvious authority, it takes us through his life from birth to death, not only with a wealth of new research, but also with a richness of quotation from contemporary letters and papers which provide dramatic details.
Horatio Nelson should have as much appeal to the general reader as to those with a knowledge of the naval history of the times.

Описание: Reproduction of the original: Julius, the Street Boy or Out West by Horatio Alger
Описание: Bringing together fourteen original essays, this collection opens up new perspectives on the architectural history of the nineteenth century by examining the buildings of the period through the lens of 'experience'. With a focus on the experience of the ordinary building user - rather than simply on the intentions of the designer - the book shows that new and important insights can be brought to our understanding of Victorian architecture.
The chapters present a range of ideas and new research - some examining individual building case studies (from grand hotels and clubhouses in New York to the parliament buildings of Westminster), and others exploring conceptual questions about the nature of architectural experience, whether sensory or otherwise. Yet they share the premise that the idea of the 'experience of architecture' took on a new and particular significance with the rise of industrial modernity, and they examine what contemporary people - both architects and non-architects - understood by this idea.
The insights in this volume extend beyond the study of Victorian architecture. Together they suggest how 'experience' might be used as a framework to produce a more convincingly historical account of the artefacts of architectural history.
