Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: PeggySu Lee, a young Chinese-Hawaiian girl stands on a corner with her mother holding her hand. They are waiting for the traffic light to change. She can see her uncle, Michael Mao KanSu standing across the street in his JAG uniform. Suddenly there is a resounding bang and her uncle collapses to the ground. A second later there is a very loud explosion. Through the smoke the young girl thinks she can see her daddy. His face covered in camouflage paint, and then it is gone. She finds that she is alone ... and running ... her skin burning from the napalm. This is always when she wakes up. PeggySu knows this is not a true memory. She does not know where this comes from. Her mother was killed in a car accident in Hong Kong when she was only ten. Her subconscious somehow combined her mother’s death with the incident she saw on television of the young Vietnamese girl her age burning from the napalm. She has always had this same recurring nightmare, every since her mother’s death. It is as if her unconscious brain is trying to tell her something. If only she could understand. It isn’t until Mr. KanSu’s death that PeggySu learns the truth that her mother had been killed in a car bomb that day in Hong Kong. Her father didn’t want her to be frightened, so he told her that her mother had a car accident, Commander Lee had lots of secrets; some were national security, some to allow loved ones to sleep at night.

Download or read book The Flying Tigers written by Sam Kleiner and published by Penguin. This book was released on 2022-03-01 with total page 321 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The thrilling story behind the American pilots who were secretly recruited to defend the nation’s desperate Chinese allies before Pearl Harbor and ended up on the front lines of the war against the Japanese in the Pacific. Sam Kleiner’s The Flying Tigers uncovers the hidden story of the group of young American men and women who crossed the Pacific before Pearl Harbor to risk their lives defending China. Led by legendary army pilot Claire Chennault, these men left behind an America still at peace in the summer of 1941 using false identities to travel across the Pacific to a run-down airbase in the jungles of Burma. In the wake of the disaster at Pearl Harbor this motley crew was the first group of Americans to take on the Japanese in combat, shooting down hundreds of Japanese aircraft in the skies over Burma, Thailand, and China. At a time when the Allies were being defeated across the globe, the Flying Tigers’ exploits gave hope to Americans and Chinese alike. Kleiner takes readers into the cockpits of their iconic shark-nosed P-40 planes—one of the most familiar images of the war—as the Tigers perform nail-biting missions against the Japanese. He profiles the outsize personalities involved in the operation, including Chennault, whose aggressive tactics went against the prevailing wisdom of military strategy; Greg “Pappy” Boyington, the man who would become the nation’s most beloved pilot until he was shot down and became a POW; Emma Foster, one of the nurses in the unit who had a passionate romance with a pilot named John Petach; and Madame Chiang Kai-shek herself, who first brought Chennault to China and who would come to visit these young Americans. A dramatic story of a covert operation whose very existence would have scandalized an isolationist United States, The Flying Tigers is the unforgettable account of a group of Americans whose heroism changed the world, and who cemented an alliance between the United States and China as both nations fought against seemingly insurmountable odds.

Book Synopsis Chronicles of Chiang Khaeng by : Volker Grabowsky
Download or read book Chronicles of Chiang Khaeng written by Volker Grabowsky and published by . This book was released on 2008 with total page 428 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Chronicles of Chiang Khaeng goes far beyond a mere annotated translation of four Lu chronicles. The polyglot co-authors, Grabowsky and Wichasin, take the annotations out of their meticulously researched footnotes of the translation proper and deftly integrate them into a history not only of a principality in northwestern Laos but a panorama of the jostlings for power among other chiang and their respective chao in the upper Mekong region. This geographic area outlines a cultural realm that shared Buddhist ethics and dhammic writing while also subscribing to the notion of hierarchy reinforced by demands for tribute, the display of regalia and pomp, and the brutal armed removal of local populations in incessant wars over human resources. Myth and history merge in these chronicles, which document sibling and spousal rivalries in networks of intermarriage and political alliances among the elite of the region. All of this was taking place at a time in history when the British and French arrived on the scene to engage China and newly emerging Siam in a mapping exercise that brought an end to centuries of regional rule by previously fairly autonomous city states. In this careful study, Chiang Khaeng emerges as a paradigm of a Southeast Asian tributary state with more than one overlord. Chronicles is a model of translation skill and historical acumen at its finest.
