Download or read book Operation Broken Reed written by Arthur L. Boyd and published by Hachette+ORM. This book was released on 2009-03-05 with total page 322 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: At the height of the Korean War, President Truman launched one of the most important intelligence -- gathering operations in history. So valuable were the mission's findings about the North Korean-Soviet-Chinese alliance that it is no stretch to say they prevented World War III. Only one man -- sworn to secrecy for a half-century -- survived Operation Broken Reed. Arthur Boyd recalls his role as cryptographer on a team of Army Rangers, Navy Frogmen, Air Force officers, and CIA operatives that posed as the captured crew of a B-29 bomber in January 1952. Given cover names and cyanide capsules in case of discovery, the men were transported by Chinese Nationalists wearing Communist uniforms across North Korea, where undercover allies delivered information about troop strengths, weaponry, and intention. Fraught with danger, the mission came apart on its last day when the Americans came under fire from Chinese forces wise to the operation. The members of Broken Reed supplied Truman with proof of massive Chinese and Soviet buildups and a heavy Soviet bomber group in Manchuria, fully loaded with atomic weapons. With the potential destruction of the world outlined in front of him, Truman chose not to escalate the Korean War, saving millions of lives.

Download or read book Arthur Boyd written by Janet McKenzie and published by . This book was released on 2000 with total page 224 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Arthur Boyd is among the greatest painters to have emerged from Australia in the 20th century. Beautiful and disturbing, and often filled with alienated, haunting figures, Boyd’s art developed from his early, astonishingly perceptive portraits and the uneasy townscapes of the war years to culminate in a considerable body of intensely beautiful and distinctively Australian landscapes. Janet McKenzie devotes particular attention to the publications for which Boyd provided illustrations, notably his four collaborations with Australian poet Peter Porter - 'Jonah, The Lady and the Unicorn, Narcissus and Mars'. Boyd’s biographical study is complemented with a chronology, a list of works illustrated by him and a full bibliography, as well as over 250 illustrations, paintings, drawings, prints and ceramics, and the works of the Old Masters that inspired this engaging and infinitely compassionate artist.

Book Synopsis The Australian Ugliness by : Robin Boyd
Download or read book The Australian Ugliness written by Robin Boyd and published by Text Publishing. This book was released on 2010-03-29 with total page 301 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Fifty years after its first publication, Robin Boyd's bestselling The Australian Ugliness remains the definitive statement on how we live and think in the environments we create for ourselves. In it Boyd rallied against Australia's promotion of ornament, decorative approach to design and slavish imitation of all things American. 'The basis of the Australian ugliness,' he wrote, 'is an unwillingness to be committed on the level of ideas. In all the arts of living, in the shaping of all her artefacts, as in politics, Australia shuffles about vigorously in the middle - as she estimates the middle - of the road, picking up disconnected ideas wherever she finds them.' Boyd was a fierce critic, and an advocate of good design. He understood the significance of the connection between people and their dwellings, and argued passionately for a national architecture forged from a genuine Australian identity. His concerns are as important now, in an era of suburban sprawl and inner-city redevelopment, as they were half a century ago. Caustic and brilliant, The Australian Ugliness is a masterpiece that enables us to see our surroundings with fresh eyes. This handsome anniversary edition is complemented by Robin Boyd's original sketches for the book and a new afterword by major contemporary architects.
