Book Description
A comprehensive account of every major war and battle fought in the Americas, this revised edition of the award-winning Wars of the Americas offers up-to-date scholarship on the conflicts that have shaped a hemisphere. When it was first published in 1998, Wars of the Americas: A Chronology of Armed Conflict in the Western Hemisphere was the only major reference focused exclusively on warfare in all its forms in North, Central, and South America over the past five centuries. Now this acclaimed resource returns in a dramatically expanded new edition. For its second edition, Wars of the Americas has been doubled in size to two full volumes: the first covers all wars and major battles from the earliest Spanish conquests through the 18th-century colonial rivalries that gripped the hemisphere. The second volume covers covers the American Revolutionary War and all subsequent conflicts up to the present. In addition to exhaustive updating throughout and a deeper focus on the historical context of each conflict, the new edition includes new coverage of the present-day drug cartel wars, international terrorism, and the ever-evolving relationships between the United States and the nations of Latin America.

Book Description
Captain James Hook, the villain who battles the Boy Who Never Grows Up, is one of the most famous pirates in literature. But regarding his past, only a few fragments are known—a scandalous birth shrouded in mystery, service as Blackbeard’s bosun, and a reputation that inspired fear in even the worst of pirates. Set against the colorful background of historical piracy on the Spanish Main, Sea Road to Neverland tells the story of the man who would eventually be known as Captain Hook. As a young man, James turns his back on his family and set out to sea, earning the name “Hook” along the way. He takes command of the Jolly Roger from the despotic Red Michael Conner and finds a jovial Irishman named Smee among the crew. He also meets a ship’s boy named Tuck with no memory of his past—and the boy offers friendship to a man who believes he needs no friends. When the ship is driven off course and brought to a strange and unknown shore, the men instinctively fear the place, for they know they are unwelcome invaders in Neverland. Filled with swashbuckling adventure and intrigue, this novel presents the story of the life of Captain James Hook, showing a classic figure of literature from a fresh perspective.
