Download or read book Devil Dogs written by Saul David and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2022-09-15 with total page 483 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Award-winning historian Saul David reveals the searing experience of the Devil Dogs of World War II and does for the U.S. Marines what Band of Brothers did for the 101st Airborne. The “Devil Dogs” of King Company, Third Battalion, 5th Marines—part of the legendary 1st Marine Division—were among the first American soldiers to take the offensive in World World II—and also the last. They landed on the beaches of Guadalcanal in the Solomon Islands in August 1942—the first US ground offensive of the war—and were present when Okinawa, Japan’s most southerly prefecture, finally fell to American troops after a bitter struggle in June 1945. In between they fought in the “Green Hell” of Cape Gloucester on the island of New Britain, and across the coral wasteland of Peleliu in the Palau Islands, a campaign described by one King Company veteran as “thirty days of the meanest, around-the-clock slaughter that desperate men can inflict on each other.” Ordinary men from very different backgrounds, and drawn from cities, towns, and settlements across America, the Devil Dogs were asked to do something extraordinary: take on the victorious Imperial Japanese Army, composed of some of the most effective, “utterly ruthless and treacherous” soldiers in world history—and defeat it. This is the story of how they did just that and, in the process, forged bonds of brotherhood that still survive today. Remarkably, the company contained an unusually high number of talented writers, whose first-hand accounts and memoirs provide the color, emotion, and context for this extraordinary story. In Devil Dogs, award-winning historian Saul David sets the searing experience of the Devil Dogs into the broader context of the brutal war in the Pacific and does for the U.S. Marines what Band of Brothers did for the 101st Airborne.

This book is a rich and provocative guide to the role of interactive media in cultural learning. It searches for specific ways to interpret video games in the context of human experience and in the field of humanities research. The author shows how video games have become a powerful form of political, ethical, and religious discourse, and how they have already influenced the way we teach, learn, and create.

Sample Book Insights: #1 On December 9, 2001, Mary Allen took the first step onto the world stage of a long-playing drama when she answered a call from Michael Peterson, who was frantic that his wife, Elizabeth, was not breathing. #2 When the paramedics arrived at the Peterson house, they were shocked by the amount of blood on the stairs. Kathleen’s body was sprawled across the floor of the hallway, her legs spread wide. Her neck was exposed as if on a sacrificial altar. #3 The emergency medical technicians worked the rapid assessment protocol with efficiency and few words exchanged. They determined that Kathleen’s level of consciousness was 3 of 3, the lowest possible score on the Glasgow Coma Scale. She had no pulse, no respiration, and no blood pressure. #4 The officers saw a chair lift attached to the wall of the stairwell. The seat was folded up, but still they wondered if it played a role in the incident. They also made the assumption that Kathleen was disabled.

Book excerpt: USA Today bestselling author: A hired gun goes after a runaway—and winds up in a range war . . . From the bestselling chroniclers of the American West comes a riveting new chapter in the epic Buckhorn saga—the legendary adventures of a young gun-for-hire with Indian blood, a lightning-fast trigger, and his own special brand of justice . . . When a wealthy cattle baroness hires Joe Buckhorn to track down her son, it sounds like easy money. But when he learns that the boy has run off with a girl—whose father is the leader of the cattle-rustling Riley clan—Buckhorn's only hope is to infiltrate the gang. Gain their trust. Live the outlaw life, even at the risk of death. There's just one problem: there's more than one gang. The Riley girl may have stolen a runaway boy's heart but the other gangs are stealing the baroness's cattle. Which puts Buckhorn in the middle of a violent, blood-soaked range war. If he chooses the wrong side, he's as good as dead—but if he follows his gut and lives, there's going to be the darkest kind of hell to pay . . .

Download or read book Unmitigated Disaster written by Louis D. Cruz and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2012-10-12 with total page 602 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A story of America is moving forward. And, NOW that word forward happens to be the slogan of the very man; that, Republican Willard Mitt Romney is trying to unseat. America the Party of NO has a man who will insist to see your ID, Birth Certifi cate, but won t release his Tax Returns, at the least 5-6 of them, so the voting electorate will know how to trust him. There are many perfectly legal ways for all weasels to get out of paying taxes. Especially, if you can afford armies of creative accountants to find them all. In our own Country s Congressional Leaders there is: Nothing but, shameless lies and dishonor! That explains what s going on here. If election in November is to be decided on the several issues, Robme (the Romney) and (Ryan, the Lying) along with the remaining hostile Republicans should stay away from foreign policy this next four years. Even drifting into that realm risks reminding voters of Obama s clear advantage in leadership. America, Bush has been out of offi ce for almost 4 years, are YOU really going to continue to blame him ? This is what the Republicans are saying! Honestly, if that s were the blame lies, absolutely! It wouldn t matter; even if, it s been 100, 200, or 300 years since George W. the Idiot Bush has been out of office, there will STILL remain too many unanswered questions!
Download or read book Written in Blood written by Diane Fanning and published by St. Martin's Paperbacks. This book was released on 2005-02-01 with total page 416 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An army brat-turned-marine, he saw combat in Vietnam, and returned a decorated soldier. An avid reader, his dreams of being an acclaimed novelist came true. His desire to find love was fulfilled when he married brilliant executive Kathleen Atwater, the first female student accepted at Duke University's School of Engineering. The Petersons seemed the ideal academic couple- well-respected, prosperous, and happy. All that came crashing down in December of 2001, when Kathleen apparently fell to her death in their secluded home in an exclusive area of Durham, North Carolina. But blood spattered evidence and a missing fireplace poker suggested calculated, cold-blooded murder. Her trusted husband stood accused. Prosecutors introduced evidence at trial that sixteen years earlier, Peterson was one of the last people to see his neighbor alive before she was found dead at the bottom of a staircase in her home in Germany. A dramatic trial followed in the explosive final chapter of a life that no novelist could ever have conceived... Written in Blood is a 2006 Edgar Award Nominee for Best Fact Crime.
