Narratives of the Rites and Laws of the Yncas
The sun, moon, and thunder, appear to have been deities next in importance to Pachayachachic; sacri- fices were made to them at all the periodical festivals, and several of the prayers given by Molina are ad- dressed to them.Another image, called Huanacauri, which is said to have been the most sacred of the ancestral gods of the Yncas, received equal honours.In all this we may discern the popular religion of the Andean people, which consisted in …

The Lands of Silence: A History of Arctic and Antarctic Exploration

Markham (1830–1916) had succumbed to smoke after accidentally igniting his bedclothes while reading by candlelight; the task of completing this history therefore fell to his friend and fellow geographer F. H. H. Guillemard (1852–1933), who published it in 1921. In the course of his long career, Markham had sailed to the Arctic in search of Sir John Franklin, jeopardised his job in the India Office by joining the British attempt to…

The Siege of Colchester
The authorities for the history of the memorable Siege of Colchester, in the summer of 1648, are not, on the whole, so complete as those for some of the other great events during the Parliamentary War.The only eyewitness who has told the story in anything like satisfactory detail is Matthew Carter, the Quarter-Master-General of the insurgent forces, under the command of the Earl of Norwich.He, of course, gives an account of the siege from the poi…
