Today, we will discuss something very general. Inspite of knowing these general thumb rules, Civil Engineers still end up making disastrous mistakes which would not only cost them but also cost the people living in the building designed by these engineers.

Emperor: The Gods of War by Conn IgguldenEmperor: The Gods of War by Conn Iggulden

The year is 53 B.C. Fresh from victory in Gaul, Julius Caesar leads battle-hardened legions across the Rubicon river–threatening Rome herself. Even the master strategist Pompey is caught unprepared by the strike, and forced to abandon his city.

The Early National Period and Expansion: 1783-1859 (Handbook to Life in America)The Early National Period and Expansion: 1783-1859 (Handbook to Life in America)

The period from the American Revolution to the Civil War (or War between the States, as it came to be known in the defeated states of the south), has sometimes been treated as two periods: the Early National Period, from Independence through about 1830, and the Antebellum Period 1830–60, the age that preceded the Civil War.

Charles II: The Star King
5
 
 
Charles II: The Star KingCharles II has always been one of the most instantly recognisable British kings - both in his physical appearance, disseminated through endless portraits, prints and pub signs, and in his complicated mix of lasciviousness, cynicism and luxury. His father's execution and his own many years of exile made him a guarded, curious, unusually self-conscious ruler. He lived through some of the most striking events in the national history - from the Civil Wars to the Great Plague, from the Fire of London to the wars with the Dutch.
Clare Jackson's marvellous book takes full advantage of its irrepressible subject.
