Witness the story of Abafi, a Hungarian knight who transforms from a selfish and unscrupulous man to a kind and noble individual who prioritizes the well-being of others. Follow him as he makes difficult life decisions and searches for his true love. Experience the tale that profoundly influenced Nikola Tesla, as he recounts in his autobiography, "My Inventions." Tesla states that reading this book "somehow awakened my dormant powers of will, and I began to practice self-control. At first, my resolutions faded like snow in April, but eventually, I conquered my weakness and felt a pleasure I had never known before—the pleasure of doing as I willed." For the first time, this influential book is available to the English-speaking community in a complete and comprehensive translation. Newly updated with a fresh cover and meticulously edited to eliminate spelling and grammar mistakes, this edition brings Abafi's transformative journey to a broader audience.

Following on from Rodney Castleden's best-selling study Minoans, this major contribution to our understanding of the crucial Mycenaean period clearly and effectively brings together research and knowledge we have accumulated since the discovery of the remains of the civilization of Mycenae in the 1870s. In lively prose, informed by the latest research and using a full bibliography and over 100 illustrations, this vivid study delivers the fundamentals of the Mycenaean civilization including its culture, hierarchy, economy and religion. Castleden introduces controversial views of the Mycenaean palaces as temples, and studies their impressive sea empire and their crucial interaction with the outside Bronze Age world before discussing the causes of the end of their civilization. Providing clear, easy information and understanding, this is a perfect starting point for the study of the Greek Bronze Age.
