Paperback. Condition: Very Good. There is no higher expression of the Royal Navy's spirit than Admiral Lord Nelson's exhortation to the fleet before the Battle of Trafalgar: "England expects that every man will do his duty." Every Man Will Do His Duty presents the voices of the officers and seamen during the wars of the Age of Nelson (1793-1815), when the Royal Navy gained a naval supremacy that would last more than a century. The remarkable eyewitness accounts in this meticulously researched work offer insights into life aboard a man-of-war. There are battles, fire-ship and cutting-out missions, shipwrecks, press gangs, and deadly encounters with cannibals, told in the words of the men who lived through them. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.…

"Internationally renowned Chinese artist and activist Ai Weiwei is one of contemporary art's most newsworthy figures, noted for both his groundbreaking work and his outspoken stance on human rights, which ultimately resulted in his controversial 2011 detainment. In an astonishing new large-scale project, he turns his attention to Alcatraz, a place he cannot visit because he is not permitted to leave China, but that stands as a world-famous symbol of both incarceration and protest. This book showcases a major exhibition of site-specific, multimedia installations and sculptures Weiwei has created for the island, on view from the fall of 2014 through the spring of 2015. Featuring beautiful photographs and thought-provoking text, 'At Large' is the essential document of this remarkable happening from one of today's most celebrated artists.". …
