Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “…our service operates in the background, and now it appears that there may be lurking in that milieu a malevolent spirit that we need to flush out…” June 1940. The fledgeling Air Transport Auxiliary is rocked by a scandal that could ground the service before it has fully developed its wings. Teddy Carlton is approached by the acquaintance of an old school friend to help resolve the issue and thus embarks on a journey that sees her engaged in some of the most exciting work that a woman could perform in wartime. Her voyage sees Teddy embroiled in the secret world of espionage while exploiting her nascent skills in flying until she becomes one of the country’s top ferry pilots and a respected agent of the Security Service. Heartache and joy are her constant companions throughout her service, but the love for her family and her country keeps Teddy focused on the ultimate goal – the defeat of Nazi Germany... …and her husband only knew the half of it.
Download or read book Teddy's War written by Albert Higgott and published by Author House. This book was released on 2009-01-23 with total page 90 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This is my story of a little boy's life in World War II. In many ways it is like the lives of so many children who had to grow up too fast. Moving from one home to another, reinventing themselves as they go. Friends were made and lost too quickly to remember their names. Decisions had to be made without family guidance. The fear of the nightly bombings soon subsided, and was replaced with learning to just put one foot in front of the other. Once you start reading this book, you will not be able to put it down. You will learn a lot, occasionally laugh out loud, and be moved by the raw experiences expressed. When you get to the end, you may go back to the beginning and read it again, this time more slowly. Perhaps with a new box of tissues.
Download or read book Teddy's War written by Donald Willerton and published by SCB Distributors. This book was released on 2020-12-01 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To Elias Gunnarson, his dad, Teddy, was part of “the greatest generation,” a man who fought valiantly in World War II, was honorably discharged, married his high school sweetheart, and lived happily ever after. Right? Wrong! The truth, he finds, lies shrouded in an intricately complex web bearing only superficial resemblance to the terrible reality lived by those who battled from the sands of Omaha Beach to the horrors of Dachau. As letters, videos, stories, and memories unfold the true tale of Teddy’s war, Elias learns that the lives of his mother, his father, and his father’s brother, Jake, were not what they seemed, and that dying a hero does not absolve a person from the sins of his past. In Teddy’s War, author Donald Willerton has crafted a heroic story of how one man’s love for his brother immerses them both in the life-changing horrors of World War II. It is a family saga built around the bond between two brothers, an action-filled story of how the war drove them into the darkest corners of humanity, and a philosophical inquiry into the central questions of love and loyalty.
Book Synopsis The Teddy Boy Wars by : Michael Macilwee
Download or read book The Teddy Boy Wars written by Michael Macilwee and published by . This book was released on 2015-11-01 with total page 352 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In the mid-1950s, Britain was gripped by the sudden terror of its own youth. As if from nowhere, gangs of young men, dressed in a remarkable new fashion, emerged to turn the streets, dance halls and fairgrounds into battlefields. The Teddy Boys had arrived. Soon they were blamed for a rising tide of post-War crime. Then the arrival of rock 'n' roll sparked rioting and further condemnation. Yet others saw the Teds as a positive sign of an independent generation, and similar fads were embraced in other countries. Their legacy survives today.
Download or read book A Bear in War written by Stephanie Innes and published by Pajama Press Inc.. This book was released on 2012-09-04 with total page 22 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: During World War One, a young girl slips her teddy bear into a care package for her father, a medic posted to the trenches of France. Although her father dies in the battle of Passchendaele, his belongings are shipped back to his family, along with the toy bear, which today sits in the Canadian War Museum in Ottawa. In 1915, 37-year-old Lawrence Browning Rogers enlisted in the Fifth Canadian Mounted Rifles, leaving behind his wife, two children, and their farm in East Farnham, Quebec. Over the next two and a half years, the family exchanged hundreds of letters, and daughter Aileen sent her beloved Teddy overseas to keep her father safe. Teddy returned home safely, but Lieutenant Rogers did not. He was killed in the battle of Passchendaele. Eighty-five years later, Lawrence's granddaughter found Teddy, the letters, and other war memorabilia packed away in a briefcase. And she discovered a moving story of one family's love and sacrifice - a story shared by the families of so many soldiers who have lost their lives in the defense of their country. Accompanied by family photographs and Brian Deines' poignant art, A Bear in War is more than one family's testament to a brave soldier. It is a gentle introduction to war, to Remembrance Day, and to the honor of those who have served their countries.

Book Synopsis Teddy's War by : Sgt. Theodore Singer
Download or read book Teddy's War written by Sgt. Theodore Singer and published by . This book was released on 2020-09-03 with total page pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a collection of stories about a hero, one of millions who served his country during WWII. Teddy Singer came from very humble beginnings and went to war leaving his wife and infant child behind, not knowing if he would ever see them again. An innocent from Brooklyn, his eyes were wide open with a naive, Hollywood-inspired sense of adventure. Teddy served on the front lines, in the 17th Field Artillery Observation Battalion, pinpointing the location of targets by sighting flashes and hearing sounds of enemy weapons as they fired. His intelligence, unique brand of levity, and a touch of denial were the tools he used to fight the harsh realities of anti-Semitism and the horrors of war. "Teddy's War" is all of Sergeant Singer's WWII "flashbacks" from Brooklyn to Fort Lewis to England, the Normandy beaches, and all over Europe.

Download or read book Forever Free written by Joe Haldeman and published by Open Road Media. This book was released on 2016-09-27 with total page 230 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: “A well-written and worthy sequel to one of SF’s enduring classics”—the Nebula Award winner The Forever War—now with a bonus story, “A Separate War” (Publishers Weekly). On virtually every list of the greatest military science fiction adventures ever written, Joe Haldeman’s Hugo and Nebula Award–winning classic, The Forever War, is ranked at the very top. In Forever Free, the Science Fiction Writers of America Grand Master and author of the acclaimed Worlds series returns to that same volatile universe where human space marines once engaged the alien Taurans in never-ending battle. While loyal soldier William Mandella was fighting for the survival of the human race in a distant galaxy, thousands of years were passing on his home planet, Earth. Then, with the end of the hostilities came the shocking realization that humanity had evolved into something he did not recognize. Offered the choice of retaining his individuality or becoming part of the genetically modified shared Human hive-mind, Mandella chose exile, joining other veterans of the Forever War seeking a new life on a wasteland world they called Middle Finger. Making a home for themselves in this half-frozen hell, Mandella and his life partner, Marygay, have survived into middle age, raising a son and a daughter in the process. Now, the dark truth about the colonists’ ultimate role in the continuation of the Human group mind will force Mandella and Marygay to take desperate action as they hijack an interstellar vessel and set off on a frantic escape across space and time. But what awaits them upon their return is a mystery far beyond all human—or Human—comprehension . . . In Forever Free, Joe Haldeman’s stunning vision of humankind’s far future reaches its enthralling conclusion in a masterwork of speculation from the mind and heart of one of the undisputed champions of hard science fiction. And in the bonus story included in this volume, “A Separate War,” Marygay, reassigned and separated from her lover, Mandella, continues fighting in military engagements across the stars—all the while planning how she and Mandella can reunite despite the time and space between them.
Book Synopsis The Spanish-American War and Teddy Roosevelt in American History by : Tom McGowen
Download or read book The Spanish-American War and Teddy Roosevelt in American History written by Tom McGowen and published by Enslow Publishing. This book was released on 2003 with total page 136 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In February 1898, the United States battleship Maine exploded in the harbor of Havana, Cuba. Most Americans blamed Spain, which ruled Cuba at the time. Because the Spanish often abused their power there, some Americans favored invading Cuba even before the Maine incident. But The United States was seen as a country of little importance. Many Americans felt that the United States had to go to war to become a great power. And certain people were doing everything they could to cause one! In The Spanish-American War and Teddy Roosevelt in American History, Tom McGowen examines the Spanish-American War and the clever maneuvers of Theodore Roosevelt, both of which helped put the United States on the path to what it is today -- a world superpower.
