Hardback. Condizione: New. A fact-based book that highlights political assassins in history. The book includes the stories of the assassins rather than just their famous victims.

For the more modern subjects, there is supporting documentation with detailed accounts written at the time in question. However, with some of the historic cases, specifics on methodology, coconspirators, etc. are not well known or there are conflicting accounts. In such cases, reasoned dramatizations are used to ensure the stories are entertaining to the reader as well as educational.The book is organized chronologically with examples from Ancient Persia and Rome and ending with several of the 19th and 20th Centuries' high profile assassinations. The assassins and the victims are representative of men and women, and eastern and western civilizations.

Hardcover. Condizione: New. 1st Edition. Back in 2020, The Speed Kings. The Rise & Fall of Motordrome Racing, by Don Emde, received the Best Book of the Year award by the Motor Press Guild. Now, you can be among the first to own a copy of his latest book, Freddie Ludlow. His Life on Two Wheels. Available now! The seeds of the idea for this book were planted over twenty years ago when author Don Emde was entrusted with the care and ownership of a scrapbook of Freddie Ludlow, an early day motorcycle pioneer. With nearly 100 pages of the scrapbook photos organized chronologically with Ludlow's own handwritten captions, what was obvious was that he was a man of adventure and competitive spirit, who also answered the call to serve his country. Freddie Ludlow's motorcycling life began as a delivery boy for Western Union on the streets of downtown Los Angeles around 1910. Local competitions followed until he enlisted in the Army and put his motorcycling experiences as a rider and mechanic to use in Europe during World War I. Upon his return home, Ludlow became one of the top motorcycle racers in the United States, rising to the level of National Champion in 1921. A few years later, his sense of service again saw him finding ways to put motorcycles to good use when he became a motor patrol officer in Pasadena, California, a job that he would have for the next thirty years. His new "day job" didn't mean, though, that Freddie was done raising the bar in the motorcycle sport when it came to speed and performance. Through the 1920s and '30s, he set numerous speed records on the hard packed sand at Daytona Beach, Florida; on the Bonneville Salt Flats, even along a stretch of public road near San Bernardino, California. Freddie Ludlow died in 1983, but his amazing motorcycling life lives on in Freddie Ludlow. His Life on Two Wheels. It features not only his scrapbook pages but also many pages written by Don Emde filled with back stories and additional rare and historic photographs of Ludlow and many other legendary racers who were his competitors. 176 pages Hardbound 10 x 12 inches Highly illustrated 400+ photos and related images Printed in sepia-tone throughout with retouched black & white photos from Freddie Ludlow's scrapbook pages, plus some limited color images.
