Towers of Royal City by Philip Byron Philips In the year 2086, the brightest minds gather from the farthest reaches of Earth to pursue one single goal: the successful encounter of the newly-discovered planet, Nersius III. The group of earthlings plans to establish the First Trade Confederation on Nersius and to colonize it. On Nersius, peace pervades every aspect of the native citizens’ lives. The planet has never known strife or socio-political hardship. In the Nersians, the earthlings encounter a people strikingly similar to themselves. Iron bonds of friendship and love soon form over the racial divide. But the earthlings come from a planet haunted by thousands of years of conflict and division. Can the tranquil planet of Nersius remain untainted by the bloody, violent history that the earthlings unwittingly carry with them? Or will the earthlings’ presence forever alter the harmony that has always characterized life on Nersius? Towers of Royal City testifies to the immutable truths of human existence while championing the ordinary acts of heroism that, even in the darkest times, offer salvation.

Byron: A Poet Before His Public

By: Philip W. Martin

This book is a major reappraisal of Byron's poetry, which despite his enormous influence, the poetry is often of inferior quality and so inconsistent in its attitudes that Byron's poetic seriousness is inevitably called into question. Dr Martin considers the nature of Byron's relationship with his public and its effect on his poetry.

Plant Life of Southwestern Australia

Adaptations for Survival

By: Philip K. Groom,Byron Lamont

Southwestern Australia is unique as it contains the world’s most nutrient-impoverished soils, experiences a prolonged-summer period and the vegetation is extremely fire-prone. It is also world-renowned for its relative high level of flora biodiversity. This book focuses on the diverse range of morphological and physiological adaptations evolved by the flora to survive in the harsh Mediterranean-type climate.

A Biographical Dictionary of Actors, Actresses, Musicians, Dancers, Managers & Other Stage Personnel in London, 1660-1800

By: Philip H. Highfill,Kalman A. Burnim,Edward A. Langhans

Like the works already published, these latest volumes of the Biographical Dictionary deal with theatre people of every ilk, ranging from dressers and one-performance actors to trumpeter John Shore (inventor of the tuning fork) and the incomparable Sarah Siddons. Also prominent is Susanna Rowson, a novelist, actress, and early female playwright. Although born into a British military family, Rowson often wrote plays that dealt with patriotic American themes and spent much of her career on the American stage. The theatrical jewel of these volumes is the "divine Sarah" Siddons: "She raised the tragedy to the skies," wrote William Hazlitt, and "embodied to our imagination the fables of mythology, of the heroic and dignified mortals of elder time." She endured much tragedy herself, including a crippling debilitating illness and the deaths of five of her seven children. Siddons played major roles in both comedy and tragedy, not the least of which was a performance as Hamlet.
