This was the first navy of the United States and much of the fleet was comprised of ships that had been modified from existing vessels, converted into warships to provide a crucial service during the American Revolutionary War. Despite having no real funding, this unique fleet had a surprising amount of success against the might of the Royal Navy, and this title discusses the strengths and weaknesses of each design, and the differences between European and American warships of the time. With a close look at how these ships performed in key battles, as well as the exploits of John Paul Jones - the founding father of the United States Navy - this is a complete, illustrated overview of the ships' service and development until France's entry into the war and the subsequent decline in importance of the Continental Navy. ![]() Prince Ilangô Adigal, Alain Daniélou, "Shilappadikaram" English | 2009 | pages: 230 | ISBN: 0811200019 | PDF | 20,2 mb The primary epic of Tamil literature. ![]() Shape: The Hidden Geometry of Absolutely Everything by Jordan Ellenberg English | May 25, 2021 | ISBN: 0241413524 | 489 pages | PDF | 14 Mb THE INTERNATIONAL BESTSELLER ![]() Shameless Milfs [mature ladies like younger men; a selection of hot stories] by Mary Sinner English | 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0BLXLSK72 | 530 pages | MOBI | 0.64 Mb Insatiable matures teach young men how to please a woman. ![]() Erica Lorraine Williams, "Sex Tourism in Bahia: Ambiguous Entanglements" English | 2013 | ISBN: 0252079442 | PDF | pages: 225 | 2.1 mb For nearly a decade, Brazil has surpassed Thailand as the world's premier sex tourism destination. As the first full-length ethnography of sex tourism in Brazil, this pioneering study treats sex tourism as a complex and multidimensional phenomenon that involves a range of activities and erotic connections, from sex work to romantic transnational relationships. Erica Lorraine Williams explores sex tourism in the Brazilian state of Bahia from the perspectives of foreign tourists, tourism industry workers, sex workers who engage in liaisons with foreigners, and Afro-Brazilian men and women who contend with foreigners' stereotypical assumptions about their licentiousness. She shows how the Bahian state strategically exploits the touristic desire for exotic culture by appropriating an eroticized blackness and commodifying the Afro-Brazilian culture in order to sell Bahia to foreign travelers. ![]() Sex After Divorce: Been There, Done That & Had The Orgasm To Prove It! by Chasity Chandler English | September 3, 2019 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B07XG4HWSK | 90 pages | EPUB | 0.12 Mb Let's Talk about SEX! ![]() Self-Managed Construction Company: Prioritize What Matters and Build a Business Thrives as Much as Your Family by Mark Brownell English | December 13, 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0BPN5J5DT | 58 pages | EPUB | 0.36 Mb Are you tired of running your construction company by yourself? ![]() Jeffry R. Halverson, "Searching for a King: Muslim Nonviolence and the Future of Islam" English | 2012 | ISBN: 1612344690 | PDF | pages: 189 | 0.8 mb At a time when violent images of the Muslim world dominate our headlines, Western audiences are growing increasingly interested in a different picture of Islam, specifically the idea of Muslim nonviolence, and what it could mean for the world. But is nonviolence compatible with the teachings of Islam? Is it practical to suggest that Muslim societies must adopt nonviolence to thrive in today's world? Where is the Muslim equivalent of a Mohandas K. Gandhi or Martin Luther King Jr.? Searching for a King offers a comprehensive look into Islamic conceptions of nonviolence, their modern champions, and their readings of Islam's sacred texts, including the Qur'an and traditions of the Prophet Muhammad.Jeffry R. Halverson asserts that the foundation for nonviolence in Islam already exists. He points to the exemplary lives and teachings of modern Muslim champions of nonviolence, including Abdul Ghaffar Khan, an ethnic Pashtun from the tribal regions of Pakistan whose 100,000 Muslim followers peacefully resisted British colonial rule in India. Using rich historical narratives and data from leading NGOs and international governmental organizations, Halverson also makes the case that by eliminating the high costs of warfare, nonviolence opens the door to such important complementary initiatives as microfinancing and women's education programs. Ultimately, he endorses Muslim conceptions of nonviolence and argues for the formulation of a nonviolent version of jihad as an active mode of social transformation. ![]() Seamless Crochet: Techniques and Designs for Join-As-You-Go Motifs by Kristin Omdahl English | 2022 | ISBN: N/A | ASIN: B0BPSV818D | 153 pages | EPUB | 15 Mb Traditional motif seaming techniques require crocheters to painstakingly sew together hundreds of seams and weave in countless ends.
