Book 5 of Colin Limmerick's adventures The fifth book of D.L. Narrol's time travel series has the same steampunk 1912 time-travelers venture again via Dr. Dimitrikov's time machine. They've somehow adopted a misplaced cave lion, an ill-behaved Neanderthal and Olga, the assistant commander of the KGB from their future; The Soviet Union (1970). Captain Limmerick, tries to have his new companions assisted back to their time periods, but not all goes as planned. Dr. Dimitrikov discovered nuclear fuel when they had previously traveled to the U.S.S.R, in previous book Arctic Quest, but is inept on how to use it. They land in 1992, to discover the KGB has been over-run with corrupt pseudo-capitalism. The time machine's control panel is, by mistake, tampered with by the hostile Neanderthal, which leads the time travelers to Johannesburg, South Africa (1900), during the Anglo-Boer War. Captain Limmerick evaded this war twelve years prior, in his own time period; but, is compelled to involve himself because of his religious beliefs and his love and admiration for a victimized Zulu woman. Limmerick's distaste for war comes into play, where he changes history forever.

Book 2 of Colin Limmerick's adventures. Colin Limmerick is faced with the continuing dilemma of time travel gone wrong. Prehistoric beasts have filtered through the vortex of time and have appeared in his present day of 1910. Rosa, his past love, indicates they must block the passage of time and the only way to do it is to venture through another prehistoric journey. The eccentric Russian scientist, Dr. Sasha Dimitrikov, who developed the time travel device explains their return trip through time may not take them to the days prehistoric beasts roamed, but they could land anywhere in time. Limmerick has misgivings about his prehistoric expeditions through time, he feels he has opened a Pandora's Box by trying to play God. His life grows even more chaotic when he finds himself in the chancellor's bed. The chancellor agrees to fund his prehistoric time travels if he agrees to be her lover. He breaks his engagement with Amoli, who tries desperately to win him back. When they enter the time vortex, they, by mistake end up in 840A.D., the time of the ancient Celts. Viking invasions are ravaging Celtic villages and they are not prepared for this time in history. He is chosen to be the head warrior for the Celts in a series of battles with Viking warriors. He is unsure of himself because of his lack of experience with a sword. Dr. Dimitrikov tries to teach him swordsmanship, but it takes years for a great warrior to master a sword. When the head Chieftain of the Celts, first sees Amoli, her beauty enchants him; where he must have her. He demands to fight Limmerick to the death for Amoli's hand. The battle intensifies, while the spectators are roar with terror, thinking their newfound Celtic warrior has been killed by the Chieftain. Rosa is jumped by two Celtic hunters, she fights them off but they manage to steal Dr. Dimitrikov's time travel device. Despite all he has been through, she is determined to come up with a plan to retrieve the very important time travel device. There are also continuous meetings with Megaloceros giganteus; a prehistoric beast that leaked through the passage of time and ended up in the time of the ancient Celts. The Celts set up a burial for Limmerick. Rosa tries desperately to reach him. She kneels by his side to realize that he miraculously survived the battle. Amoli becomes the Chieftain's possession, but when he sees Limmerick is alive, he refuses to give her up. Limmerick and Dimitrikov both charge at the Chieftain with two-handed claymores and relentlessly fight him to his death. Dr. Dimitrikov finally positions the time travel device to take them back to 1910 A.D. They return to their modern-day living but Colin Limmerick is distraught that they witnessed a prehistoric mammal roaming an ancient Celtic time period. He realizes that he is an ill-prepared time traveler but learns through this Celtic Odyssey that prehistoric beasts are roaming throughout time.

First published in 1992. This book invites the reader to cast the mind a hundred and fifty years back to a short span of time between 1829 and 1842. This was an exciting period when Britain’s might, demonstrated to the world at Trafalgar and Waterloo, was fortified by leadership in steam technology and was given a new direction by the liberal philosophy that British statesmen, thinkers and poets proclaimed at home and abroad. The Euphrates expedition was an attempt by well-intentioned British governments to achieve a geopolitical end by a technological means. The objective was to halt Russian expansion in the Near East, where some observers saw a threat to Britain’s control of India.

This volume publishes accounts of archaeological exploration carried out in the Sudanese Eastern Desert. A pioneering programme of expeditions along the so-called ‘Korosko Road’ revealed a rich archaeological landscape frequented over millennia, including gold-production areas and their associated settlements.

This is the most comprehensive book devoted to Sumatra in more than half a century. It summarizes earlier studies, and provides a huge amount of new knowledge for the first time in readily accessible form. Sumatra is one of the world’s largest islands, rich in flora and fauna, minerals and timber, and located at the midpoint of the maritime route between China and India. These are ideal conditions for the creation of a fascinating history. Sumatra has played a major role in world trade for 2,000 years, but its culture and archaeology have been surprisingly neglected. This volume sets out to remedy this defect. With chapters on history, archaeology, anthropology, folklore, and religion, the authors focus particular attention on the relations between the coastal peoples who are best known to outsiders, and the hinterlands, where most of the important resources lie. The list of authors includes most of the principal living authorities on Sumatra. Their cumulative experience consists of many years on all parts of the island. The book is copiously illustrated, and includes a comprehensive bibliography for those who wish to pursue further study of the wide range of topics covered.
