Описание: The First World War demanded revolutionary technology to break the vicious stalemate in which the armies of Europe found themselves as soon as static warfare became established. In the critical world of military intelligence, aviation assumed a vital role through aerial reconnaissance in reinforcing successful decision-making. The demands of warfare not only spurred aviation's development, it led to technological advances in aerial photography, radio intercepts, acoustics and optics that became the foundation for intelligence throughout the twentieth century and to the present day.

Colonel Terry Finnegan's Shooting the Front reviews the entire evolution of Allied aerial photography and photographic interpretation during the Great War, in a text packed with data and based upon meticulous research in archives worldwide. The photographs included are both informative and spectacular, charting perforce the early years of aviation itself. Shooting the Front shows not only how important aerial reconnaissance was to the war effort, but also how it became the foundation for modern-day exploitation of imagery and geospatial intelligence used to guide today's decision makers on global issues, and shaped intelligence work for generations to come.

Описание:

On a sunny fall morning in Southern Indiana, artist Ben Manning has just bought a house that continues to be occupied by its previous owner, Anna Atwood. At first, he thinks the image of the young woman on the stairway is an illusion, a distortion of light and shadow. As days pass, Anna's appearances begin to frighten both Ben and his friend Jenna Newland, especially after Anna warns them that the house is a living thing with unimaginable powers. After learning Anna's incredible secret, Jenna realizes Ben is slipping into another time, and that his obsession with this enigmatic woman is evident in the portrait he is painting--a portrait of a woman without eyes.
After continued paranormal occurrences, both inside and outside Atwood House, Dr. Adrian White and parapsychologist, Liz Raymond, attempt to solve what has become a mystery as impossible as it is provocative. Despite Anna's warning that something monstrous is buried beneath the lawns of Atwood House, digging begins, and what's uncovered is more shocking than any of them anticipated. An eccentric scientist, Charlie Chase, connects his work on a classified government project known as Firefly, to the strange occurrences at Atwood House. A government man, known only as Smith, wants to use Chase's research to establish military hegemony. Even when the truth is revealed, it suggests realities that not one of them is prepared to accept It is knowledge so extraordinary that it challenges predominate theories of space and time and becomes a major threat to national security.
Strange happenings, profound revelations, and exciting character interactions are guaranteed to keep readers engaged in this page-turning adventure, which brings the paranormal closer to scientific fact. Above all else, Spider Lines remains a sensitive love story about a man fascinated by the mystery of Anna Atwood who is intent on turning him away from the love of the only woman who can save him.
