America
￥19.52
The Saskias, Saskia Chandler and Saskia Hunt, are off on holiday to America. But before they go they have a few things to attend to, both as the SuperTwins, Kyra and Katya, and as themselves. Saskia Chandler discovers she needs to use the knowledge and experience gained when she was still Richie and worked in IT to unravel a mystery involving robberies from ATM machines. Saskia Hunt seems to have come to terms with just exactly who Saskia Chandler actually is, now it's just up to Saskia Chandler to come to terms with that for herself. The Twins find themselves shunted backwards and forwards in time, sometimes only a little way, sometimes hundreds of years - and once into a timeline that has no beginning - and no end. Despite trips to the Moon and to Houston, this time with Rio to assist them, eventually they get to go on their holiday. But they find they still need to use their super powers as they get dragged back to Britain to prevent the whole of South East England becoming an uninhabitable wasteland. Perhaps the strangest thing of all happens in Chicago when they meet two men who were deadly enemies - in the nineteen twenties. But there's a problem - they have no means of returning to their own time!

With Wolfe in Canada
￥19.52
This book tells the story of James Walsham, who left England as a young man in 1755 and finds himself in the French and Indian War.From the author:In the present volume I have endeavoured to give the details of the principal events in a struggle whose importance can hardly be overrated. At its commencement the English occupied a mere patch of land on the eastern seaboard of America, hemmed in on all sides by the French, who occupied not only Canada in the north and Louisiana in the south, but possessed a chain of posts connecting them, so cutting off the English from all access to the vast countries of the west. On the issues of that struggle depended not only the destiny of Canada, but of the whole of North America and, to a large extent, that of the two mother countries. When the contest began, the chances of France becoming the great colonizing empire of the world were as good as those of England. Not only did she hold far larger territories in America than did England, but she had rich colonies in the West Indies, where the flag of England was at that time hardly represented, and her prospects in India were better than our own. At that time, too, she disputed with us on equal terms the empire of the sea.The loss of her North American provinces turned the scale. With the monopoly of such a market, the commerce of England increased enormously, and with her commerce her wealth and power of extension, while the power of France was proportionately crippled. It is true that, in time, the North American colonies, with the exception of Canada, broke away from their connection with the old country; but they still remained English, still continued to be the best market for our goods and manufactures. Never was the short-sightedness of human beings shown more distinctly, than when France wasted her strength and treasure in a sterile contest on the continent of Europe, and permitted, with scarce an effort, her North American colonies to be torn from her. All the historical details of the war have been drawn from the excellent work entitled Montcalm and Wolfe, by Mr. Francis Parkman, and from the detailed history of the Louisbourg and Quebec expeditions, by Major Knox, who served under Generals Amherst and Wolfe.
