Download 1940 Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
The most shocking year in history. Week by week, hour by hour. In his brilliant reconstruction, Richard Collier vividly brings one of the most momentous years in world history to life once again. This was a time of blitzkrieg and the Blitz; of the Battle of Britain and Dunkirk. From the fighting in Finland to the destruction of Coventry, from the sinking of the French fleet in Oran to the invasion of Norway, this is history at its most extraordinary and engaging. By recounting major episodes from the viewpoint of those actually involved, Collier provides enlightening glimpses of just what war represented to both the great and to the unknown, and reveals that while 1940 was a year of incredible folly, it was also a time of inestimable bravery. Perfect for readers of Anthony Beevor and Max Hastings, this is an unforgettable book about an unforgettable year, a year that shaped the world we know today. ‘Masterly... you could be reading a spine-tingling thriller’ Sunday Express ‘I would like to see this book made compulsory reading’ Evening Standard

Patton's War is the exciting third book in the "World in Flames" WW II alternative history series. The action picks up after the dramatic end to Truman's War when General Patton has been named the commander of all Allied Ground Forces...it's his war to win or lose. The story unfolds with the continued unrelenting attacks against the beleaguered Allied armies from the encircled British Second Army trapped in the Hamburg Pocket to American tankers and soldiers fighting against overwhelming numbers of Soviet tanks and guns who threaten to overrun and trap the American armies. Quickly we see the former commander of the Third Army lose confidence as the Red Army's top generals, Zhukov and Rokossovsky, outgeneral him at every turn. As the situation becomes more desperate with each passing day, General Eisenhower must decide who should command the Allied forces before it's too late. Patton's War takes the reader on a ride from the political inner circles of Washington, London, Tokyo, and Moscow to fighting that spreads throughout the globe. Finally, the novel comes to a gripping close as the Russians launch a daring attack that threatens the very heart of the Allied war effort and sets up the final book in the series, MacArthur's War.

Download When You Are Engulfed in Flames Book in PDF, ePub and Kindle
"David Sedaris's ability to transform the mortification of everyday life into wildly entertaining art," (The Christian Science Monitor) is elevated to wilder and more entertaining heights than ever in this remarkable new book. Trying to make coffee when the water is shut off, David considers using the water in a vase of flowers and his chain of associations takes him from the French countryside to a hilariously uncomfortable memory of buying drugs in a mobile home in rural North Carolina. In essay after essay, Sedaris proceeds from bizarre conundrums of daily life-having a lozenge fall from your mouth into the lap of a fellow passenger on a plane or armoring the windows with LP covers to protect the house from neurotic songbirds-to the most deeply resonant human truths. Culminating in a brilliant account of his venture to Tokyo in order to quit smoking, David Sedaris's sixth essay collection is a new masterpiece of comic writing from "a writer worth treasuring" (Seattle Times). Praise for When You Are Engulfed in Flames: "Older, wiser, smarter and meaner, Sedaris...defies the odds once again by delivering an intelligent take on the banalities of an absurd life." --Kirkus Reviews This latest collection proves that not only does Sedaris still have it, but he's also getting better....Sedaris's best stuff will still--after all this time--move, surprise, and entertain." --Booklist Table of Contents: It's Catching Keeping Up The Understudy This Old House Buddy, Can You Spare a Tie?
