Book Synopsis Trench Warfare, 1850–1950 by : Anthony Saunders
Download or read book Trench Warfare, 1850–1950 written by Anthony Saunders and published by Casemate Publishers. This book was released on 2010-08-19 with total page 286 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Although many books have been published about the Western Front, few of them look beyond the Great War to consider trench warfare in a wider historical context. Trench warfare was not an aberration of the Western Front. On the contrary, it was a watershed in a greater upheaval in warfare which started in the 1850s and continued well beyond the First World War. This book examines how trench warfare was fought, studying the Crimea, American Civil War and Japanese War 1904-05. He looks at how the Western Front of 1914–18 differed from the trench fighting of the Second World War and the Korean War.The book examines the evolution of trench warfare, technologically and tactically, from the Crimean War to the Korean War, during which time developments in military technology often advanced far beyond tactical thinking. Trench Warfare 1850 1950 discusses the impact of trench warfare on military thinking and considers how the stalemate of the Western Front was overcome. Emergency technologies, from the hand grenade to the tank, are discussed to highlight their impact on trench warfare and, ultimately, on warfare as a whole. Tactically, trench warfare led to the development of the concept of deep battle which was later employed by the Red Army in the Second World War.
Book Synopsis The Original Rochdale Pioneers by : Carol Davidson
Download or read book The Original Rochdale Pioneers written by Carol Davidson and published by Lulu.com. This book was released on 2016-06-15 with total page 354 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In 1844 a diverse group of working men banded together in an attempt to improve their own lives by acting for themselves instead of relying on others. They formed the Rochdale Equitable Pioneer Society and opened a store in Toad Lane which was to be run on the ideals of honest weights and unadulterated food. In the 172 years since its establishment, many stories, myths and misconceptions have arisen. This richly researched book offers a unique study into the lives of the individuals themselves and highlights differences in many of the commonly held beliefs about the Pioneers. The latter half of the book includes a complete transcription of the original Minutes of the Society from 1844 to 1851.

This book was released on 2023-10-31 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The first comprehensive study to be written on the history of ship launches and their ceremonies. Throughout history, man has been performing rituals at the launch of a new ship to seek supernatural or divine protection for his ship and those who will sail in her. The form of the ritual varies according to local custom and religion: from the breaking of a coconut, to the release of doves, to the role of astrologers in choosing an auspicious day for the launch. But the sentiment that lies behind all launching ceremonies is fear. At the moment of launching a new ship a seafarer is alert to any sign that his ship is not sound. He is superstitious and seeks reassurance that his ship and those who will sail in her will be protected. The rites of blood sacrifice and libations performed by the ancient Babylonians and Greeks are well evidenced. The evolution of this practice into todays tradition of breaking a bottle of wine against the bow of a ship before launch, still symbolising sacrifice, is explored as well as the now widely practised custom of inviting ladies to name and launch new ships.
