Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Hutchinson Illustrated Encyclopedia of British History is a comprehensive and authoritative guide to the people, events, and ideas that have shaped Britain from prehistory to the present day. The editors have also sought to convey the truth that history is more than simply a compilation of facts from the past. The editors have included as much factual information as possible in each A-Z entry, and numerous tables and statistics are included, as well as many specially-created maps and plans. The chronological relationships of past events and lives are conveyed through various detailed subject chronologies (attached to the relevant A-Z entries). A large thematic chronology, following the A-Z text, provides a visual reference to the relationship between the events of British/Irish history and events elsewhere in the world. And the cultural context of as many entries as possible has been brought to life via a wide range of illustrations, which provide a wealth of visual detail and, often, a key to past conceptions. Interspersed in the text are 21 specially commissioned, extended feature articles from noted historians that provide the analysis and the sense of the broad sweep of history that would otherwise be impossible to convey in an A-Z reference book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The US Army Rangers orders were clear - they were to attack the gun batteries at Maisy and silence them on D-Day - before nightfall.The Rangers did not get to Maisy until the morning of the 9th of June - where they found the guns still firing and the Germans ready and waiting for them.At 9am the commanders ordered their men to attack without any intelligence brief.Each company of Rangers captured a different area of the 144 acre site and some walked through marshes, uphill and through minefields - all whilst under fire - to then have a face to face battle in the trenches.Accounts of the battle come from the author's interviews with the men who took part. Distinguished Service Cross's, Silver Stars and Purple Hearts had been earned by the time the 5 1/2 hour battle ended.The author shares his unique experience of digging up this previously unrecognised WW2 battlefield and he walks the reader through trench after trench and bunker by bunker.He reveals what he was found in a site that one Ranger veteran described as a "town underground".Maisy Battery is unique in Normandy today and the authors detective work and subsequent onsite archaeology has been featured on the front page of the Washington Post.It is a battlefield where you are free to walk around miles of original trenches and only then can you understand the bravery of the men who fought for every inch of it.

Download or read book History of United States Naval Operations in World War II. Vol. 9 written by Samuel Eliot Morison and published by University of Illinois Press. This book was released on 2001 with total page 476 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The University of Illinois Press continues its paperback release of Samuel Eliot Morison's panoramic fifteen-volume naval history with three volumes that chronicle the war in the Pacific from May 1942 through May 1944. This new edition will be issued in increments of three volumes per season through Spring 2003.Morison's genius for capturing the flash and fire and the pathos of combat infuses his narrative with an immense vitality and suspense. This is not an official history, in the ordinary sense of that term, but Morison's history, a gripping, face-to-face encounter with the human drama of war.Volume 4: Coral Sea, Midway and Submarine Actions, May 1942 -- August 1942 details the American victory in the Coral Sea and the U.S. Navy's stunning defeat of a far superior Japanese force at Midway, as well as the events leading up to the six-month struggle at Guadalcanal. This volume also provides a richly detailed look at the first-year exploits of the Silent Service: the fledgling American submarine corps in the Pacific. Morison supplements his firsthand experience of American operations and access to Allied documents with critical information from the Japanese side.

Download or read book British Cultural Memory and the Second World War written by Lucy Noakes and published by A&C Black. This book was released on 2013-11-21 with total page 235 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Few historical events have resonated as much in modern British culture as the Second World War. It has left a rich legacy in a range of media that continue to attract a wide audience: film, TV and radio, photography and the visual arts, journalism and propaganda, architecture, museums, music and literature. The enduring presence of the war in the public world is echoed in its ongoing centrality in many personal and family memories, with stories of the Second World War being recounted through the generations. This collection brings together recent historical work on the cultural memory of the war, examining its presence in family stories, in popular and material culture and in acts of commemoration in Britain between 1945 and the present.
