Excerpt: ...it was a graceful act of practical courtesy from youth to age. Herein lies the contrast between the characteristics of the two countries. The Frenchman is all blandness and outward courtesy, but not ready to do anything practical. The Englishman is cold, discourteous, at times abrupt, and even rude, but ever willing, and indeed anxious, to lend a A HELPING HAND. 119 helping hand to friend, acquaintance, or stranger in any instance of real emergency, or where the circumstances of the case render such aid either desirable or necessary. 120 A WALKING TOUR IN NORMANDY.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Walking Tour in Normandy Without further comments, then, I come to the commencement of my travels, which began on the 3oth of August, 1863. Early in the morning of that day - which was a Sunday lightly clothed, and with an umbrella and a knapsack not too heavily filled, I started from my bachelor quarters on foot for St. Katherine's Wharf, in order to take the boat for Havre. The few passengers who were going by her were punctual in attendance, but she lay long past the hour appointed for departure, fast stuck in the mud on the other side of the river, and so we had to wait the pleasure of the tide before moving onward. There is something peculiarly unpleasant in a sudden check at the commencement, even of a journey of idleness and pleasure. It is not at all agreeable to rise early, breakfast in a hurry, and rush to the place of embarcation, and yet by noon find yourself not advanced a stage. There is some thing in your express trains, after all. Heigh ho! John, Thomas, James! Pack up my small portmanteau, and fetch a hansom. To London Bridge, into a comfortable first-class carriage.

He describes their wartime careers and shows how they fitted into the armed forces. He looks at what they did, at their lives in the front line, in the rear areas, on leave, and at the conditions they endured and the experiences they had. And he demonstrates how the research was done and how the lives of these individuals were reconstructed—the methods that were used, the sources that were consulted.Paul Reeds informative and accessible book will be essential reading and reference for anyone who wants to find out about the Great War and is keen to understand the part an ancestor played in it.

Book excerpt: “Tells the tales left untold by Stephen Ambrose, whose Band of Brothers was the inspiration for the HBO miniseries...laced with Winters’s soldierly exaltations of pride in his comrades’ bravery.”—Publishers Weekly Look for the Band of Brothers miniseries, now available to stream on Netflix! They were called Easy Company—but their mission was never easy. Immortalized as the Band of Brothers, they suffered 150% casualties while liberating Europe—an unparalleled record of bravery under fire. Winner of the Distinguished Service Cross, Dick Winters was their legendary commander. This is his story—told in his own words for the first time. On D-Day, Winters assumed leadership of the Band of Brothers when its commander was killed and led them through the Battle of the Bulge and into Germany—by which time each member had been wounded. Based on Winters’s wartime diary, Beyond Band of Brothers also includes his comrades’ untold stories. Virtually none of this material appeared in Stephen Ambrose’s Band of Brothers. Neither a protest against nor a glamorization of war, this is a moving memoir by the man who earned the love and respect of the men of Easy Company—and who is a hero to new generations worldwide.

Book excerpt: The story behind D-Day begins in 1939 when Nazi Germany, led by Adolf Hitler, attacked Poland and ignited World War Two. The following year, the Germans occupied France and Western Europe and launched a vicious air war against Britain. In 1941, they invaded the Soviet Union. Seemingly unstoppable, the Nazis now held virtually all of Europe. They imposed a ruthless system of control and unleashed the horror of the Holocaust. However, by 1943, the tide had begun to turn in favor of the Allies, the forces opposed to Germany. In the east, despite huge losses, the Soviets began to force the Germans back.
