Описание:
In Roster Number Five-Zero, you will bear witness to the author's personal experiences, from beginning to end, of attending the toughest combat leadership course in the military--US Army Ranger School. You will learn of the daily hardships, challenges, and accomplishments of planning, moving, and executing combat missions at small unit levels. The time spent in this school is under the harshest conditions of terrain, weather, starvation, and sleep deprivation. Here, you will learn what the human body can truly endure.
In this small but information packed book, Saddle, Sword, and Gun, Forrest scholar and relative Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook takes an inside look at the fascinating life story of Southern hero Confederate General Nathan Bedford Forrest. Written for teens and young adults (ages 13-18), Colonel Seabrook restores the legacy of one of American history's greatest figures - a legacy tarnished by 150 years of Yankee lies, slander, and anti-South propaganda.
Your son or daughter will ride along with Forrest, getting a firsthand look at his childhood in Tennessee, his teens in Mississippi, his marriage and children, his multimillion dollar businesses, the start of the American "Civil War," his enrollment in the Confederate army, and his rise to fame as a daring and successful Rebel officer.
They will thrill to the dramatic descriptions of General Forrest's exploits on and off the battlefield as he and his courageous cavalry (which included sixty-four black Confederate soldiers) fought their way across the South defending hearth, home, honor, and the constitutional right of self-government. In the process they will discover why the General's men loved and respected him, why the Southern people looked up to him as their "Spiritual Comforter," and why he freed his slaves years before Lincoln issued his fake and illegal Emancipation Proclamation.
After Lincoln's War they will follow Forrest as he rebuilt his life from scratch, and helped the South regain her political power and dignity during the Yankees' cruel and vindictive "Reconstruction" period. Finally they will learn how the great Confederate chieftain lived out his last years campaigning for black civil rights and working to heal the physical and emotional wounds left by the War for Southern Independence. Along the way they will be taught the truth about Forrest and Southern slavery and about Lincoln's War on the Constitution and the American people, a truth that has been hidden for a century and a half by uneducated enemies of the South.
Parents, you will enjoy reading this heavily illustrated compact little book as well, for it contains hundreds of important historical facts that neither you or your children were ever taught in school. Colonel Seabrook's sixth book (of nine) on Forrest, Saddle, Sword, and Gun is a significant work that will change hearts and minds regarding one of the most inspirational, gallant, colorful, and riveting figures in world history, a man who to this day is loved by millions of people of all races around the globe: famed Tennessean Nathan Bedford Forrest Available in paperback and hardcover.

Описание:
From the 1960s to the 1990s, seven members of the Quimpo family dedicated themselves to the anti-Marcos resistance in the Philippines, sometimes at profound personal cost. In this unprecedented memoir, eight siblings (plus one by marriage) tell their remarkable stories in individually authored chapters that comprise a family saga of revolution, persistence, and, ultimately, vindication, even as easy resolution eluded their struggles.
Subversive Lives tells of attempts to smuggle weapons for the New People’s Army (the armed branch of the Communist Party of the Philippines); of heady times organizing uprisings and strikes; of the cruel discovery of one brother’s death and the inexplicable disappearance of another (now believed to be dead); and of imprisonment and torture by the military. These stories show the sacrifices and daily heroism of those in the movement. But they also reveal its messy legacies: sons alienated from their father; daughters abused by the military; friends betrayed; and revolutionary affection soured by intractable ideological differences.
The rich and distinctive contributions span the martial law years of Ferdinand Marcos’s rule. Subversive Lives is a riveting and accessible primer for those unfamiliar with the era, and a resonant history for those with a personal connection to what it meant to be Filipino at that time, or for anyone who has fought political repression.
Описание: A famous Irish regiment at war The Connaught Rangers-the 88th Regiment of Foot-were popularly known as the 'Devil's Own' and have been a notable and redoubtable infantry regiment within the British Army since their creation in 1793. Principally comprised of Irishmen they had a mixed reputation as being exactly what was required on the field of battle but something of a burden to commanders on other occasions. They saw much action under Wellington during the Peninsular War and by the time the conflict in Russia broke out, in the campaign in the Crimea in the middle of the 19th century, they were once again ready to show their mettle. The author of this book was an officer in the regiment and the account in this book is based on eye witness experience. The Connaughts were in action at The Alma, Inkerman, Sevastapol and the assault on the Redan. The regiment, true to its tradition, started their campaign with a strength of 931 strong and ended it having after sustained 769 casualties as a result of battlefield deaths, wounds and disease.
