Hard Cover. Condition: Fine. Dust Jacket Condition: Fine. First Edition. 1st American edition, March 1986, so stated with complete number line beginning with 1. Fine in dust jacket, not price clipped, in an acid-free archival acetate cover. The Ratcliffe Highway Murders, 1811, that shocked Regency London. "In 1811, London's East End was the scene of a series of murders so brutal and irrational that they caused panic throughout the city, which lacked a central police force. This engrossing account, marking the American nonfiction debut of British mystery novelist James, details the seven vicious ("brains battered out and throats butchered"), apparently motiveless slayings (which occurred first in a linen shop, then, days later, in a nearby pub); the confused efforts of local "police" groups; and the cases' suspiciously abrupt closing after suspect John Williams, a seaman and lodger at the Pear Tree public house, committed suicide in jail, thereby sealing his "guilt" and prompting a bizarre parade of his corpse (together with a murderous maul) throughout the city. James and police historian Critchley use documents and contemporary news accounts splendidly, pointing up the incompetence of the investigators and offering an intriguing view of what really happened." -- Publishers Weekly.

Rustica (tapa blanda). Condition: New. Dust Jacket Condition: Nuevo. 01. Los ejércitos y armadas de la Monarquía Hispánica fueron pioneros en la formación de una fuerza profesional especializada en el combate a bordo de sus naves: así, sobre las gastadas huellas legadas por los classiarii romanos y otras fuerzas análogas del Bizancio medieval, por orden del emperador Carlos V, en 1537 dieron sus primeros pasos los tercios del mar. Este cuerpo de los ya temidos tercios españoles estaba consagrado al servicio en las flotas de la monarquía y al desempeño de toda clase de operaciones anfibias, es decir, funciones todas ellas propias de verdaderas fuerzas especiales modernas, las cuales serían heredadas, a su vez, por los Batallones de Infantería de Marina, fuerza sucesora de la anterior, creada en 1717. La conformación de estos cuerpos antecede históricamente en más de dos siglos a la fundación oficial de los Royal Marines británicos y de los archiconocidos marines de Estados Unidos e integró una fuerza pionera cuya trayectoria se extiende, casi sin interrupción, hasta la actualidad. Desde los grandes encuentros navales de las Guerras Napoleónicas y la Guerra de la Independencia, pas. LIBRO.…
