Caproni Ca . 2 The Caproni Ca . 2 was an Italian heavy bomber of the World War I era . Development . The Ca . 2 was a minor development of the Caproni Ca . 1 . It had become evident early in the Ca . 1 ' s service life that the design could benefit from more power . Caproni therefore replaced the central , pusher engine of the aircraft with a more powerful one . Caproni referred to this as the Caproni 350 hp at the time , and the Italian Army dubbed it the Ca . 2 . No separate number seems to have been allocated to it in Caproni ' s post - war redesignation scheme . Only nine aircraft were built , supplied to the Italian Army alongside deliveries of Ca . 1s between August 1915 and December 1916 . The benefits of increased power encouraged Caproni to continue in this direction , leading to the definitive Caproni Ca . 3 . Description . Three - engine biplane of a wooden construction , covered with fabric . The crew of four was placed in an open central nacelle ( front gunner , two pilots and rear gunner - mechanic ) . The rear gunner manned upper machine gun s , standing upon the central engine in a protective " cage " , just before a propeller . Tricycle landing gear . Armament consisted of two to four Revelli 6 . 5 mm or 7 . 7 mm machine gun s , one in front ring mounting and one , two or sometimes even three in an upper ring mounting . Bombs were suspended under the hull .
Confederate settlements in British Honduras The Confederate Settlements in British Honduras are a cultural and ethnic sub - group in Belize , formerly known as the colony of British Honduras . They are the descendants of Confederates who fled to British Honduras with their families during and after the American Civil War . As the American Civil War erupted , colonial leaders saw an opportunity to profit from the sale of arms and weapons to the Confederate States . Soon a profitable trade in arms to Americans boosted the colonial economy and British Honduras became sympathetic to the Confederate cause . The colonial governor and other officials were also interested in recruiting American Southerners who were knowledgeable in cotton and sugar . Confederate immigrants were offered substantial subsidies and tax breaks . General Robert E . Lee and former Mississippi Governor John J . McRae advised Southerners not to flee to Central America but many ignored their advice and attempted to establish a new plantation economy in the English speaking colony . Many Southerners who took the governor ' s offers of land at a reduced price were fugitives from the American government , and many had simply lost everything during the war . Evidence suggests that more Confederates fled to British Honduras than any other destination , in part because they could easily acclimate to the English speaking colony . This is also the reason they have not maintained a distinct cultural identity like those who went to places like Brazil . In many cases the Confederates attempted to cultivate cotton , but the inhospitable climate and ravenous insects stifled the effort . Well - known Confederates who went to British Honduras included Colin J . McRae ( former Confederate Financial Agent in Europe ) and Joseph Benjamin ( brother of Confederate Secretary of War Judah P . Benjamin ) . Historian and author Donald C . Simmons , Jr . , published a book in 2001 entitled " Confederate Settlements in British Honduras " about this episode in American and British Honduran history .

The Indian War of Independence ( book ) The Indian War of Independence is an Indian nationalist history of the 1857 revolt by Vinayak Damodar Savarkar that was first published in 1909 . The book , initially written in Marathi , was penned by Savarkar in response to celebrations in Britain of the 50th anniversary of the 1857 Indian uprising with records from India Office archives and the whole project received support from Indian nationalists in Britain including the likes of Madame Cama , V . V . S . Iyer and M . P . T . Acharya , as well as Indian students who had dared not show their support or sympathy for India House openly . Published during Savarkar ' s stay in London at the India House , the book was influenced by histories of the French Revolution and the American Revolution , as much as it sought to bring the Indian movement to public attention in Britain as well as to inspire nationalist revolution in India . The book , which describes the 1857 revolt as a unified and national uprising of India as a nation against British authority , was seen at the time as highly inflammatory , and the Marathi edition was banned in British India even before its publication . Publication of the English translation faltered after British printers and publishing houses were warned by the Home Office of its highly seditious content , while the British foreign office brought pressure on the French Government to prevent its publication from Paris . It was ultimately printed in the Netherlands in 1909 , with the British government not tracing it until too late . The copies were printed with false dust wrappers purporting to be copies of " The Pickwick Papers " and other literary classics , and large quantities were shipped to India where it quickly became a bible of political extremists . It was excluded from the catalogue of the British Library to prevent Indian students from accessing it . In India , the book remained banned till the end of The Raj forty years later . " The Indian War of Independence " is considered to be an influential work in Indian history and nationalist writing , and also one of Savarkar ' s most influential works in developing and framing ideas of masculine Hinduism . While some erstwhile and modern histories draw similar conclusions as the Savarkar , others , including R . C . Majumdar , disagreed with Savarkar ' s conclusions in his book on the national and unified character of the mutiny .
