Download or read book Kings of the Air written by Ian Sumner and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2015-04-30 with total page 266 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In comparison to their British and German counterparts, the French airmen of the Great War are not well known. Yet their aerial exploits were just as remarkable, and their contribution to the war effort on the Western Front was equally important. That is why Ian Sumner's vivid history of the men of the French air force during the war is of such value. He tells their story using the words of the pioneering pilots and observers themselves, drawn from memoirs, diaries, letters, and contemporary newspapers, magazines and official documents. The recollections of the airmen give an authentic portrait of their role and their wartime careers. They cover recruitment and training, reconnaissance and artillery spotting, aerial combat, ground strafing and bombing, and squadron life. They also highlight the technical and tactical innovations made during those hectic years, as well as revealing the airmen's attitude to the enemy - and their thoughts about the ever-present threat of injury and death.

Book Synopsis Nieuport 11/16 Bébé vs Fokker Eindecker by : Jon Guttman
Download or read book Nieuport 11/16 Bébé vs Fokker Eindecker written by Jon Guttman and published by Bloomsbury Publishing. This book was released on 2014-04-20 with total page 82 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The appearance in July 1915 of the Fokker E I heralded a reign of terror over the Western Front that the Allies called the 'Fokker Scourge'. The French Nieuport 11 was one type desperately thrown into action to counter the Fokkers. The swirling dogfights between this fighter – and its more powerful but more unwieldy stablemate, the Nieuport 16 – and a succession of improved Fokkers, the E II, E III and E IV, came to symbolise air combat in World War I. This book gives a detailed look at the developmental history of the fighters, contrasting the interrupter gear-equipped Fokker with the more improvised solution incorporated in the Nieuport – a machine gun fitted to the upper wing to avoid the propeller entirely. The Germans went on to abandon the monoplane in favour of a new and deadly generation of biplane fighters, based on the lessons learned from these vicious engagements and influenced by the success of the French Nieuport.
Book Synopsis Remembrance by : Charles Casimer Krawczyk
Download or read book Remembrance written by Charles Casimer Krawczyk and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2006 with total page 432 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: BETH: A Story of Postpartum Psychosis contains a true story of the suffering of my own daughter during an intense five months of the worse scenario of postpartum illness. This most severe form of postpartum illness is characterized by confusion, delusions, hallucinations, paranoia, agitation and disorganized speech and behavior. All of these are illustrated in this story. There has been no other book written from this perspective purely on postpartum psychosis. This story is told as an observer and confidante of my only daughter after the birth of her first child. Step by step I watched in horror as she became more distant from everyone and eventually took her own life. It tells of the gruesome reality of someone who becomes a different personality at the most important time of her life and the impact it had on our family and friends. Included is a biological background of Beth, the psychotic experience, how we handled this medically and emotionally, the grief that ensued, and how I became involved in helping others with similar postpartum illnesses. I had never heard of this biologically based illness. Immediate hospitalization is required with appropriate medications. The reader will become educated and find resources to help others through proven medical facts. We must give each new mother, with any postpartum mental illness, the message that she is never alone, she is blameless, and she will get better in time with the proper treatment.
Book Synopsis A Fraternity of Arms by : Robert Bowman Bruce
Download or read book A Fraternity of Arms written by Robert Bowman Bruce and published by . This book was released on 2003 with total page 410 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: By the beginning of the twentieth century, the United States had already become an international power and a recognized force at sea, but its army remained little more than a frontier constabulary. In fact, when America finally entered World War I, the U.S. Army was still only a tenth the size of the smallest of the major European forces. While most previous work on America's participation in the Great War has focused on alliance with Great Britain, Robert Bruce argues that the impact of the Franco-American relationship was of far greater significance. He makes a convincing case that the French, rather than the British, were the main military partner of the United States in its brief but decisive participation in the war-and that France deserves much credit for America's emergence as a world military power. In this important new look at the First World War, Bruce reveals how two countries established a close and respectful relationship-marking the first time since the American Revolution that the United States had waged war as a member of a military coalition. While General Pershing's American Expeditionary Forces did much to buoy French morale and military operations, France reciprocated by training over 80 percent of all American army divisions sent to Europe, providing most of their artillery and tanks, and even commanding them in combat. As Bruce discloses, virtually every military engagement in which the AEF participated was a Franco-American operation. He provides significant new material on all major battles—not only the decisive Second Battle of the Marne, but also St. Mihiel, Cantigny, Reims, Soissons, and other engagements—detailing the key contributions of this coalition to the final defeat of Imperial Germany. Throughout the book, he also demonstrates that there was a mutual bond of affection not only between French and American soldiers but between the French and American people as well, with roots planted deep in the democratic ideal. By revealing the overlooked importance of this crucial alliance, A Fraternity of Arms provides new insights not only into World War I but into coalition war-making as well. Contrary to the popular belief that relations between France and the United States have been tenuous or tendentious at best, Bruce reminds us that less than a century ago French and American soldiers fought side by side in a common cause—not just as allies and brothers-in-arms, but as true friends.

Download or read book Old Soldiers written by Charles Hays and published by Xlibris Corporation. This book was released on 2014-10-03 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a young man in the Army I was extremely privileged to have served my time in three equal parts. One year in Fort Lee, Virginia, a second year in Germany and a third year in France. No matter where I was stationed, I was never without my camera and plenty of extra film. During the dullness of my long weekends, all of the furloughs or through long bus tours, I covered each and every tourist site on the Continent. As a result of my proclivity for taking good pictures, I ended up with far more pictures than money. I really enjoyed reviewing my past and the many photographs which have filled several albums. What you have here in this book is a collection of images which I took or collected during the most enjoyable parts of my military career.
