This ambitious entry in R.P. Hunnicutt's 10-volume compendium of American tank history details the development of the Patton tanks, including the M60 series as well as other vehicles based on the tank chassis or employing other elements of the tank's design. First developed in the period between WWII and the Korean War, various iterations of the Patton armored military vehicle have served as a crucial component of American military operations in all manner of engagements.
Hunnicutt spares no detail as he examines the origins and deployment of the M46 and M47 in the early days of the Cold War and for the duration of the Korean War. As the conflict escalated, increasing numbers of Patton tanks were deployed in Korea and many remained after the armistice to protect the tenuous agreement.
Developed to replace the M47 Patton and M4 Sherman, the M48 Patton main battle tank boasted a variety of technical improvements and was relied upon heavily throughout the Vietnam War, with over 600 individual tanks deployed alongside U.S. forces during the war. Hunnicutt provides detailed technical information about these vehicles and their role in the U.S. Army and Marines. The M60 product-improved descendant of the Patton tanks and its many variations is also treated with exacting detail by Hunnicutt, who takes us through the numerous and important variations on the Patton design.
Spanning the history of America's most widely used main battle tank, Hunnicutt's Patton is an absolute must-have for anyone interested in the history of the American military.
Richard Pearce Hunnicutt (1926-2011) enlisted in the 7th Infantry Division in 1944 and in 1945 was promoted to sergeant and awarded the Silver Star for his heroic actions. After WWII, Hunnicutt earned a Masters in engineering from Stanford University under the GI Bill. In addition to being one of the most respected metallurgists in California, Hunnicutt wrote the definitive 10-volume history of the development and employment of American armored vehicles. As a tank historian and leading expert in the field, Hunnicutt was one of the founders of the US Army Ordnance Museum at Aberdeen Proving Ground, MD and was a close friend and frequent contributor to the Patton Museum at Fort Knox, KY.

Описание: The diary of Catherine Ann Devereux Edmondston presents a unique portrait of Civil War North Carolina. Wife of a prominent planter and slaveholder in Halifax County, North Carolina, Mrs. Edmondston spent most of the war on the family plantations Hascosea and Looking Glass. Occasionally she made trips with her husband Patrick to Richmond, Virginia, and to various eastern North Carolina towns. Despite this relative isolation and insulation Kate Edmondston's imagination and inquisitive mind allowed her to observe and follow closely the progress of the war.
An avid reader of newspapers, particularly those from the Confederate capital Richmond, she commented extensively on the war and recorded in minute detail the strategies and maneuverings of the Confederate and Union armies, casualties among North Carolina troops, and the weaknesses and strengths of various leaders, North and South, local and sectional. She also fancied herself a poet and wrote odes to various fallen heroes and to the southern war effort. One of her poems even found its way into print in a South Carolina newspaper. Clearly she was influenced by poets and novelists of the Romantic period, for her diary abound with allusions to many pieces of classical literature and the Bible.
A diehard ""secesh lady,"" in her own words, she was uncompromisingly prosouthern in her loyalties and intensely bitter toward Unionists, Abraham Lincoln, and northern generals like Benjamin Butler and William Sherman. Inept Confederates and southern leaders she considered undeserving political lackeys did not escape her vitriolic pen, however.
The diary reveals a rich mosaic of family, class, and sectional connections. It provides in addition an unusually intimate glimpse of plantation life and the social consequences of war as the conflict crept closer and as a miasma of fear and uncertainty enveloped eastern North Carolina. Mrs. Edmondston's distinct and finely etched class views of nonslaveholding whites, slaves, and freedmen and her perception of the role of women in southern society undergird the entire journal. An intriguing social document in itself, the diary depicts with profound clarity the shattering impact of the war on southern women in particular, whose circumscribed lives were suddenly exposed to the ravages of war and poverty.
Characterized by new insights into the Civil War experience on the southern home front, and filled with copious data for historians and genealogists, the Edmondston diary will appeal to many readers as simply a gripping tale of southern life during the conflict. As such, it rivals some of the best-known accounts of the Civil War, including the diary of Mary Boykin Chesnut.

Описание: Pat Patton, a 30-year-old prankster-loving new attorney, has learned how to run his office and navigate the justice system to secure the best legal outcome for his clients. His case load has grown as well as his feelings for Asst. DA Shirley O'Kelly. They had to outrun a psychopath who was hell-bent on killing them. Now the unsuspecting lawyer is the target of another dangerous criminal, who has sworn that death is too lame a payback for the death of his brother. More educated and a more vicious psychopath than brother Skinny, Jeffie plots to really get Pat and Shirley as Pat juggles two major cases: one, a motion before a judge to exonerate a man who has wrongfully served 26 years of a life sentence; the second, a trial in which Pat defends a woman for running dope from Jamaica to the Atlanta Airport. Pat feels like a volley ball as he handles more and often humorous cases while being interrupted by terrifying, life-threatening events. Pat and Shirley find relief only when they join family, old and new friends, who rally around to help them.
