Book Description
This book, consisting of almost 70 chapters, spread over ten parts and a foreword section, covers the following topics. A prelude and introduces the reader to the world of Heraldry, the Town and the Duchy of Montblanc in Spain and Onomastics. Finally, it provides a brief history to understand the book’s chronological context better. A part on genetics is provided to outline the DNA analysis, made by different commercial companies, of the genes of the author and his brother-in-law. The investigations compare genetics with the genealogy provided in this work and are consistent. They show, for instance, that the author is a male descendent of the Desclergues of Montblanc and is equally blood-related to them through his mother, consistent with what the records provide. Furthermore, an autosomal analysis reveals a percentage-wise appearance, in agreement with the documents, of DNA strings originating from Spain, where the Desclergues came from, and Brittany, where they had their ancient paternal roots. Concerning the DNA of his brother in law, illustrative for his wife, the author discovered results in agreement with his wife’s ancestors’ history. A Part Brittany in France goes deeper into the life of Bertrand Du Guesclin and the fact that he begot offspring in Spain. The latter is well-known, and the book provides a comprehensive literature survey on this subject. Apart from autosomal DNA, pointing at ancient roots in Brittany, the author also uncovered indications in documents retrieved in Spain in the archives of de Pedrolo, equally descendants of the Desclergues. A major Part describes the Desclergue family of Montblanc and their settlement in Belgium. A lot of this knowledge had already been described by earlier investigators, and an exhaustive overview of all existing knowledge about the family is provided insofar as published in the past. In addition, the author provides extensive research results not described formerly, particularly of the Desclergues who left Spain for Flanders around 1600 and their descendants. The unravelled archives include civil and ecclesiastic records and documents found in the libraries of some Spanish military strongholds in Flanders. The book situates the facts in history and supplies valuable general knowledge to broad readers. The data range from the 1500s until the present and cover the author’s paternal ancestry line. Numerous military campaigns in the 16th and 17th centuries are clarified, with particular attention to the lives and involvements of the Desclergues. As a coincidence, the author’s mother also stems from the Desclergues, and this line is equally represented A large part is devoted to the de Silva family of Uduwara from whom the author’s wife stems. This is particularly interesting to globe trotters and describes the long paternal history of the author’s wife, Shirani de Silva. The bloodline originated in the North West of India and migrated through Persia to Byzantine. They continued to Iberia, where they arrived as new settlers and mixed with locals. The family line of Carvalho, so initiated, later blended with de Silva, consequently migrated to Goa during the Iberian expansion to India. From Goa, they relocated to Uduwara in Sri Lanka to protect a fortification on the Kalu Ganga river. The evidence contains documents, DNA analysis and new archaeological findings in Uduwara and Goa. Other ancestry lines are described separately. Some may only be interesting to his descendants; others are, again, of general interest, such as the family of de Patin that played an essential role during the Belgian Austrian era. Although not anticipated early in this research, the author discovered Antoni Desclergue’s (DC06) involvement in establishing a chapel in Deerlijk in Belgium. The evidence is provided by archaeological discoveries and records and is extensively described in a separate part. The facts are essential in understanding the influence of Monblanquians in Flanders but are also thought-provoking for the inhabitants of Deerlijk. Indeed, the village’s ancient legend of a miracle in 1634 is based on solid ground and not on a fairy tale as one believed during the previous decennia. The nobleman in the story was Antoni Desclergue, while the events were almost an exact copy of the legend of Mare de Deu de la Serra in Montblanc. The main difference is that oxen were involved in Montblanc and horses in Deerlijk. The oldest known depiction of the miracle exposes an image of Monblancs Mare de Deu de la Serra and discloses Antoni Desclergue’s initials. Furthermore, Antoni Desclergue later ornamented the chapel with the artwork. For instance, he provided a polychrome panel depicting the Main Square of Montblanc, including the House of Desclergue and also a beautiful statuette by Cano.

Book Description
How early did the Chinese explore the world? Did the Treasure Fleets, led by Admiral Zheng He, discover many parts of the world before Christopher Columbus? While it is known that Christopher Columbus discovered America and Europe ushered in the Age of Discovery, there is an ongoing debate on the 'unknown' areas depicted in Western maps from the period and earlier. There is agreement among scholars that certain areas seem to have been mapped out prior to the arrival of Western explorers.Chinese Global Exploration in the Pre-Columbian Era: Evidence from an Ancient World Map analyses the world's first modern map — known as Kunyu Wanguo Quantu (KWQ) 《坤輿萬國全圖》 in Chinese, translated as the 'Complete Geographical Map of All Kingdoms of the World' to demonstrate evidence of Chinese global exploration in the Pre-Columbian era. The map of concern was first printed by Italian missionary, Matteo Ricci in 1602, and has been purported to be of entirely European origin, based on Ricci's former maps which he had brought to China in 1582.This book, thus, seeks to be transformational in presenting essential new insights on Pre-Columbian world history and Chinese global exploration, moving away from the norm of the studies of geography and cartography by:

Book Description
In some places, the Ku Klux Klan (KKK) was a social fraternity whose members enjoyed sophomoric hijinks and homemade liquor. In other areas, the KKK was a paramilitary group intent on keeping former slaves away from white women and Republicans away from ballot boxes. South Carolina saw the worst Klan violence and, in 1871, President Grant sent federal troops under the command of Major Lewis Merrill to restore law and order. Merrill did not eradicate the Klan, but they arguably did more than any other person or entity to expose the identity of the Invisible Empire as a group of hooded, brutish, homegrown terrorists. In compiling evidence to prosecute the leading Klansmen and by restoring at least a semblance of order to South Carolina, Merrill and his men demonstrated that the portrayal of the KKK as a chivalric organization was at best a myth, and at worst a lie. This is the story of the rise and fall of the Reconstruction-era Klan, focusing especially on Major Merrill and the Seventh Cavalry's efforts to expose the secrets of the Ku Klux Klan to the light of day.
