Book excerpt: Great Battles for Boys sends young readers "into the fight." From weapons, strategies, and military leaders to bayonets, bullets, and bombers, boys discover what really happened in these historic conflicts. In this volume, the story begins with Hitler's rise to power in 1930s Germany and his devastating invasion of Poland which launched World War II. The battles continue from there, proceeding through Europe and North Africa, culminating in the Normandy invasion, the Battle of the Bulge, and Victory in Europe. Some little-know yet fascinating battles are also included, such as Finland's Winter War, when a tiny tribe of men defeated Stalin's massive Red Army. With historic photographs, maps, and short, powerful chapters, "Great Battles for Boys" shows how these historic conflicts shaped the world, and why "Freedom isn't free." "I strongly recommend this book, particularly to young readers who aren't provided this kind of insight in standard texts." -- Randolph Carter Harrison, retired officer Army Special Forces, and former head of media relations, The Boeing Company.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Boy's Book of Battles by Eric Wood, first published in 1913. Eric Wood was the author of: Thrilling Deeds of British Airmen (1917) and Famous Voyages of the Greek Discoverers (1920). He was also the author of a series of books for boys in the early twentieth-century, with titles including: The Boy s Book of Adventure (1912), The Boy s Workshop (1912), The Boy s Book of Battles (1913), The Boy Scouts Roll of Honour (1914), The Boy s Book of the Sea (1915), The Boy s Book of Heroes (c1915), The Boy s Book of Buccaneers (1917), The British Boy s Annual (1921), The Outdoor Boy (1923) and The Boy s Book of the Open Air (1924). This book focuses on the military exploits of dozens of the most important battles in world history. Although a brief overview of the political issues involved is usually given, the main focus is on the daring deeds, strategies, and exploits of the battles themselves. Many critical battles from world history are given, including Marathon, Tours, Agincourt, and the Armada, but the book also strongly emphasizes 19th century battles, including Waterloo, Trafalgar, Balaclava, Palermo, Gettysburg, and Koniggratz.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Boys Book of Border Battles In the United States of North America there have been several great battle-fields, each much larger than the battle-field of France. The first was that of the Ohio River country - the Valley of the Beautiful River which drains Ohio, Kentucky, Indiana, West Virginia, and western Pennsylvania. Another, yet larger, was that of the plains and mountains West, extending from Mexico to Canada, and from the Mississippi to the Rockies. In the Ohio Valley the Shawnees, the Miamis, the War Delawares, the Mingo Iroquois, the Wyandots fought hard to keep the white man out. In the Far West and Southwest the Blackfeet, the Sioux, the Cheyennes, the Kiowas, the Comanches and the Apaches fought equally hard for the same purpose. Boys' Book of Indian Warriors and Boys' Book of Frontier Fighters have told of these and other combats when the red Americans tried to stand off the white Americans. But both battle-fields saw wars of white and white as well as wars of white and red. In the Ohio Valley the American colonists helped their mother country, England, against the French - and the French lost that region. And in the Southwest the United States fought Mexico. Boys' Book of Border Battles is therefore white and red. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
