A manifesto that is not only antivivisectionist but also antispeciesist, it presents us with a truth too often ignored: revenge is never the right path to take.

Reprint of the original, first published in 1843.

The shocking story of a WWII shootout between black and white GIs in a quiet Cornish town that put the British-US “special relationship” on trial. On September 26, 1943, racial tensions between American soldiers stationed in Cornwall erupted in gunfire. Labelled a ‘wild west’ mutiny by the tabloids, it became front page news in Great Britain and the USA. For Americans, it bolstered a fast-accelerating civil rights movement, while in the UK, it exposed unsettling truths about Anglo-American relations. With new archival research, journalist Kate Werran pieces together the shocking drama that authorities tried to hush up. Her narrative examines everything from the controversy of American segregation on British soil to the shocking event itself and the resulting court martial. Extracted from wartime cabinet documents, secret government surveys, opinion polls, diaries, letters and newspapers as well as testimony from those who remember it, this story offers a rare window into a little-known dark side of the ‘American Invasion.’

My star is rising, and I shine. Always. Serenity Ward is the golden girl of Kaycie. She never questioned her city’s status as the last dry land on earth. But now she’s seen the map. The Establishment lies about the other islands just beyond the horizon. In a city built on falsehood, figuring out who to trust is its own challenge. Serenity pulls together a feisty group who all want the same thing—an end to the government which has hidden a world from them. Bram’s anger drives his desire for revolution. Being from another island, he was selected to be a brainwashed marshal in service to Kaycie, but he knows what’s going on all too well. Hidden in plain sight, he is ready to draw blood to free the islands. Dealing with Serenity is the one thing he wasn’t prepared for. Can two people who were never supposed to meet stop fighting each other long enough to remember who the enemy is?
