Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The real woman behind the myths of Anne Boleyn is surprisingly elusive. She was neither accused of witchcraft nor of having a third nipple. She was a Catholic exile in Rome, Madrid, and Ireland who launched rebellions and undermined Elizabeth's monarchical integrity. #2 The sixth finger is a staple fact in many modern novels and websites, but it seems to have come from a comment made by George Wyatt, several decades after Anne's death. He wrote that there was some show of a nail on the side of Anne's nail, which was so small that it was often hidden by her other fingers. #3 The idea that Anne Boleyn had a third nipple is a product of the 1920s, when anthropologist Margaret Murray argued that Anne and other historical figures had belonged to an ancient, secret pagan cult. But in a trial that was a political witch-hunt, Anne was not tried for witchcraft. #4 The story of Anne Boleyn is one of the most gossiped-about in history. She didn't have three nipples, six fingers, or five lovers, and her story is already interesting enough. But writers are always looking for a fresh angle.

Extrait Ces livres ne sont pas seulement un émouvant récit de voyage, mais encore une leçon d’initiative et d’énergie d’une haute valeur éducative. Au cours des dernières années du XIXe siècle, dans tous les pays de culture scientifique, un très vif courant d’opinion s’était manifesté en faveur de l’exploration des régions antarctiques, le dernier grand blanc existant à la surface de la carte du monde. Autour du Pôle Sud, qu’existait-il ? Un vaste continent ou simplement des îles enveloppées par un immense océan encombré de banquises, telle était la question qui se posait. Pour la résoudre, en 1901, trois expéditions organisées par l’Angleterre, l’Allemagne et la Suède appareillaient, suivies bientôt d’une quatrième équipée par l’Écosse. À cet élan qui chez toutes les nations maritimes agitait le grand public aussi bien que le monde scientifique, la France demeurait complètement indifférente. Aucune de nos sociétés savantes ne s’était même préoccupée du problème qui passionnait nos voisins. C’est alors qu’avec l’ardeur qu’insufflent les causes nobles et désintéressées, Charcot assuma, à lui seul, la tâche négligée par les collectivités scientifiques. Pour gagner l’opinion à son projet d’expédition antarctique, d’un bout à l’autre du territoire, il multiplie les appels et les conférences. Après six mois d’efforts, grâce au généreux concours du Matin, le succès était assuré, et, le 15 août 1903, Charcot partait sur le Français pour associer notre glorieux pavillon à la croisade entreprise contre les glaces australes. Les expéditions arrivées les premières sur le théâtre des opérations avaient, naturellement, pris les meilleures places, de telle sorte que, au moment du départ de la mission française, seul, restait libre, le secteur le plus difficile, celui du Pacifique oriental, entre le méridien de l’Amérique et celui de la Nouvelle-Zélande. Mais, de ce côté, ne continuerait-on pas l’œuvre admirable de Dumont-d’Urville ? Et, animé par cette pensée, quinze mois durant, à l’exemple de son chef, l’équipage du Français lutte contre les circonstances les plus adverses. Qu’importent les périls et les privations ! Ne trouvent-ils pas, ces vaillants marins, la récompense de leurs efforts dans les découvertes dont ils enrichissent la science ?
