Download or read book Grenade written by Alan Gratz and published by Scholastic UK. This book was released on 2019-01-03 with total page 288 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: It's 1945, and the world is in the grip of war. Hideki lives with his family on the island of Okinawa, near Japan. When the Second World War crashes onto his shores, Hideki is drafted to fight for the Japanese army. He is handed a grenade and a set of instructions: Don't come back until you've killed an American soldier. Ray, a young American Marine, has just landed on Okinawa. This is Ray's first-ever battle, and he doesn't know what to expect -- or if he'll make it out alive. All he knows that the enemy is everywhere. Hideki and Ray each fight their way across the island, surviving heart-pounding ambushes and dangerous traps. But then the two of them collide in the middle of the battle... And choices they make in that single instant will change everything. Alan Gratz, New York Times bestselling author of Refugee, returns with this high-octane story of how fear and war tear us apart, but how hope and redemption tie us together. Reviews for Refugee: "An absolute must read for people of all ages" - Hannah Greendale, Goodreads "Like RJ Palacio's Wonder, this book should be mandatory reading..." - Skip, Goodreads "I liked how the book linked history with adventure, and combined to make a realistic storyline for all three characters" - AJH, aged 11, Toppsta
Book Synopsis Hand-grenade Practice in Peking by : Frances Wood
Download or read book Hand-grenade Practice in Peking written by Frances Wood and published by John Murray Pubs Limited. This book was released on 2000 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1975 I went to Peking for a year, together with nine other British students who had been exchanged by the British Council for ten Chinese students. The latter knew exactly what they were doing: learning English in order to further the Great Proletarian Cultural Revolution. We were less sure. From 1966, China had been turned upside down by young Red Guards who were encouraged to Bombard the Headquarters'. Professors, surgeons, artists, pianists, novelists and film directors were attacked for their bourgeois pursuit of excellence or their attachment to decadent Western ideas. Though by 1975 there were no longer violent street battles or badly beaten bodies floating down the Pearl River, we found Peking University governed by a Revolutionary Committee of workers, peasants and Party members determined that we should not learn too much and become experts divorced from the masses. With our Chinese classmates, we spent half our time in factories, getting in the way of workers making railway engines, or in the fields, learning from peasants how to bundle cabbage or plant rice seedlings in muddy water. Heroically, we stayed up half the night to dig rather shallow underground shelter

Download or read book Stilwater written by Rafael de Grenade and published by Milkweed Editions. This book was released on 2014-04-21 with total page 281 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this “rhapsodic [and] stirring” nature memoir, an American woman recounts a season of herding cattle in the Australian Outback (Kirkus). Rafael de Grenade was thirteen years old when she began working on a rough-country mountain ranch in Arizona. But when she read about cattlemen working the far edges of the Australian outback, it sparked a dream far wilder than anything she had ever known. A little over a decade later she arrived on Stilwater Station with two shirts, two pairs of jeans, cowboy boots, and some doubt that she would ever go home. Inundated by monsoon floods in the winter, baked dry in the summer, and filled with deadly animals, Stilwater was an unlikely home for a cattle operation. But in the wilderness beyond the station roamed tens of thousands of cows, many entirely feral from long neglect. Rafael has been hired, along with a ragged crew of ringers and stockmen, to bring them in. Over a season they use helicopters, motorcycles, bullcatcher jeeps, horses, ropes, and knives to win Stilwater Station back from the wild, to say nothing of their intuition, strength, muscle, and wit.

Book Synopsis US Grenade Launchers by : Gordon L. Rottman
Download or read book US Grenade Launchers written by Gordon L. Rottman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2017-09-21 with total page 81 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In an effort to provide the US infantryman with more firepower to cover the range gap between the hand grenade and the light mortar, the 40mm M79 grenade launcher – a shoulder-fired, single-shot weapon – entered service with US forces in 1961. Reliable, easy to use, and lethally effective, the M79 soon became an iconic symbol of the Vietnam War and had a profound influence on small-unit tactics. As the Vietnam conflict continued, it was joined on the front line by experimental models such as the magazine-fed T148E1, as well as two launchers intended to be fitted under the barrel of the new M16 assault rifle: Colt's XM148 and AAI Corporation's M203. The M203 remains in US Army service today, while the US Marine Corps now also fields the M32 multiple grenade launcher – like the M79, a standalone weapon. Featuring full-colour artwork, this is the story of the rugged and formidable grenade launchers that equipped the United States and its allies in Vietnam and beyond from the 1960s to the present day.
