Synopsis

In "Stories From Livy," Alfred John Church artfully distills the complex narratives of Roman history as documented by the ancient historian Titus Livius, or Livy. Through a series of engaging vignettes, Church presents key moments and pivotal characters from Livy's monumental work, intertwining historical facts with vivid storytelling. His prose evokes the grandeur of Roman civilization while maintaining a clarity that makes this ancient material accessible to modern readers. By employing a narrative style that balances simplicity with eloquence, Church invites a deeper appreciation of both the subject matter and its literary roots within the broader context of historical storytelling. Alfred John Church was an eminent classical scholar and translator, deeply passionate about bringing ancient texts to life for contemporary audiences. His educational background and scholarly pursuits in classical literature endowed him with the ability to navigate the nuances of Livy's historical accounts. Church's commitment to education and literary translation reflects his belief in the timelessness of these stories, aiming to inspire a continued interest in classical history and its relevance. "Stories From Livy" is highly recommended for readers interested in history, storytelling, or classical literature. Church's adept retellings not only illuminate the richness of Roman culture but also evoke the universal themes of ambition, virtue, and the moral conflicts inherent in human endeavors. This book serves as an invaluable resource for both casual readers and scholars alike, ensuring Livy's legacy continues to resonate.

    Following the War of the Spanish Succession (1702–1713) a decade-long wave of sea-robbery plagued the Atlantic rim—often glamorized as the "Golden Age of Piracy". Boston-based laborer, Edward Low, left his mark on pirate history as the most vicious and sadistic raider of them all. Low's reputation, and those of other pirates, was crafted through newspapers and literature. Romanticized as anti-heroes and egalitarians in a monarchical world who had liberated themselves from the constraints of law and society ashore, these marauders came to enjoy an immortality bestowed upon them by generations of historians, novelists, and movie makers. That persistent gloss masks a more sordid reality. 
     
     
     
    Travers demonstrates that, feared as they certainly were, pirates were largely ordinary seamen trapped in desperate circumstances who, in the end, had little to show for their efforts. Contrary to popular portrayals, for pirates it was a time of radically diminishing returns, scant treasure, and increasingly successful suppression by state authorities. The Notorious Edward Low puts individual actors, from colonial governors to captains to common seamen, at center stage, and reveals how British authorities used new anti-piracy laws to reclaim authority over their fractious North American colonies—a compelling story with its own brand of true-life swashbuckling on the high seas.
