Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Includes The First World War On The Somme Illustration Pack – 107 photos/illustrations and 31 maps. These are the wartime adventures of “Vedette”, a pseudonym of noted journalist and screenwriter Valentine Williams, during the First World War. Williams volunteered for service at the age of 32, a little on the old side for service in as prestigious and hard fighting as the Irish Guards. He was commissioned as a 2nd Lieutenant or “Ensign”, and found himself travelling to France and the frontline in 1916. There was little enough time for him to learn his duties and responsibilities in the field before he and his men were thrown into the hell of the Battle of the Somme. The sounds of the shells, bullets and cries of “Stretcher-BearER!” were to become all too familiar to the author before he was wounded and sent back to Blighty. His memoirs are told in the third person, with verve wit and vivid detail that belie William’s journalist background.

"Mr. Cooper, I'm utterly astonished; do you know his reason for all this?" "Yes, sir; he wants to be useful to you; he thinks he will be if he has an intimate knowledge of the work the enlisted men do." Commander Harker's eyes glistened with moisture that had suddenly come to them. He was genuinely affected. After a moment he observed, " Cooper, I must think about this. I particularly wish that Mr. Osborn should not learn that I saw him in that furnace to-night or know what he is doing; please don't mention it. I'm going to bed. Good-night." "All right, chief; he won't hear it from me. Good-night, sir." At eight o'clock the next morning Warrant Machinist Cooper appeared in the fire-room. "McCarthy, how does Mr. Osborn do as a fireman?"

Download or read book Under the Black Ensign written by L. Ron Hubbard and published by Galaxy Press LLC. This book was released on 2008-09-08 with total page 140 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Long before Captain Jack Sparrow raised hell with the Pirates of the Caribbean, Tom Bristol sailed to hell and back Under the Black Ensign. That’s where the real adventure begins. Bristol’s had plenty of bad luck in his life. Press-ganged into serving aboard a British vessel, he’s felt the cruel captain’s lash on his back. Then, freed from his servitude by pirates, his good fortune immediately takes a bad turn ... the buccaneers accuse him of murder and leave him to die on a deserted island. Now all he has left are a few drops of water, a gun and just enough bullets to put himself out of his misery. But Bristol’s luck is about to change. Finding himself in the unexpected company of a fiery woman, he rescues a slave ship, unsheathes his sword, raises a pirate flag of his own and sets off to make love and war on the open seas in this nautical adventure. In his early twenties, Hubbard led the two-and-a-half-month, five-thousand-mile Caribbean Motion Picture Expedition. He followed that with the West Indies Mineralogical Expedition near San Juan, Puerto Rico, in which he completed the island’s first mineralogical survey as an American territory. It was during these two journeys that Hubbard became an expert on the Caribbean’s colorful history—an expertise he drew on to write stories like Under the Black Ensign. “A riveting tale of sailing ships, piracy and the high seas.” —Midwest Book Review * A National Indie Excellence Award Winner

This book was released on 2014-08-15 with total page 259 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: [Illustrated with 10 plates of the battles and engagements detailed in the book] Colonel John Buchan, was a man of many talents, a politician of upright morals and forthright character, a novelist of great acclaim and a soldier who served with distinction in the First World War. He collected stories and anecdotes by the dozen, crafting the best and worthiest into this collection which spans the entire conflict. As he himself states in his introduction; “THIS is a book of soldiers’ tales, told, for the most part, by those who took part in the events they record. They are drawn from many branches of service and from many countries; sometimes they are concerned with great and critical operations, but more often they deal with episodes and sideshows in the huge business of war...There has never in the world’s history been such an arena of drama and strange adventure as that long road which the Allies travelled to victory. Libraries will not exhaust its treasures; indeed, it will be years before we, who have ‘been preoccupied with special stages, will be able to grasp the wonders of the whole journey. This budget of wayside tales is only the cutting of a few sheaves at random from an immense harvest.” As the chapter headings confirm the war on the ground and in the air throughout the conflict has been sketched with aplomb, from pilots above the Somme to the deserts of North Africa I. - FIRST YPRES, 1914: THE TURNING OF THE TIDE. II. -”‘TWIXT GUY FAWKES’ AND ST. PATRICK’S.” III. THE “PETROL HUSSARS.” IV. - THE WORST AND THE BEST. V. - THE FIFTEENTH DIVISION AT LOOS. VI. - THE FIGHTING IN THE AIR DURING THE BATTLE OF THE SOMME. VII. - THE CALL. THE TALE OF A TANK. VIII. - THE TANKS AT CAMBRAI. IX. - CUT OFF IN A CAVE. - THE TALE OF A FIGHT BEYOND THE JORDAN.
