During the first half of the 19th century British explorers eagerly sought the Northwest Passage, making great advances in exploring and charting polar regions.

He got as far as Baffin Bay, but when he reached the only practicable entrance to the passage he declared it to be no more than a bay enclosed by mountains. In subsequent years he was widely derided for that erro

Thomas Traherne (1637? - 1674), a clergyman of the Church of England during the Restoration, was little known until the early twentieth century, when his poetry and Centuries of Meditations were discovered.

The Works of Thomas Traherne brings together all of Traherne’s extant works in a definitive, printed edition for the first time.

"This timely and thoroughly absorbing book is the best, most comprehensive and most critical survey of anti-Americanism available. A thoughtful antidote to the blah blah blah of CNN and network news, Anti-Americanism provides a subtle unpeeling of US global domination and multiple political and cultural responses to it. If you want to understand what the news is calling anti-Americanism, this is the book to read." —Neil Smith, author of American Empire: Roosevelt’s Geographer and The Prelude to Globalization Ever since George Washington warned against "foreign entanglements" in his
