Only 12 reviews mostly positive. but some may be interested in it. Free Kindle eBook on the First World War.
Victory 1918 Book Description Publication Date: February 24, 2014 Almost a century after the battles of the First World War ended, their consequences remain imprinted on the political maps of Europe and much of the Middle East. Did events justify Lloyd George's claim in 1914 that the Kaiser could fall `by knocking away the props'; isolating Germany by defeating her partners? When Italy joined the Allies who was propping up whom? Were sideshows in the Balkans, Iraq and Palestine integral to the war's general strategy, or were they simply old imperial rivalries resumed by other means? A hundred years on, that moment in November 1918 when the fighting ceased on the Western Front is still remembered across nations: that symbolic eleventh hour of the eleventh day of the eleventh month. 'Victory 1918' examines the background to the Allied triumph and its aftermath. Might the Armistice in the forest of Compiegne have come sooner? Did American intervention have won the war and compromised the peace? How near did Germany come to denouncing the Armistice and resuming fighting in 1919? But 'Victory 1918' is not only concerned with what happened in France and Flanders. There were four armistices that autumn. The Great War was a global conflict, with battlefronts on three continents. Retracing the path to Compiegne through the four-year struggle allows the reader to consider if a broader strategic vision might have brought an earlier victory. 'Victory 1918' is a masterful survey of one of history's great turning points, and offers a fresh interpretation of the war which, more than any other, determined the character of the twentieth century. ‘Palmer’s style is as good as his judgement is daring’ – The Times ALAN PALMER was Head of the History Department at Highgate School from 1953 to 1969, when he gave up his post to concentrate on historical writing and research. He has written some thirty narrative histories, historical reference books or biographies. In 1980 he was elected a Fellow of the Royal Society of Literature. |

It is a little annoying but it generally does not mean as much as one might think. It is very hard to get reviews, but they are very important to the author's marketing of their books. |

Wanted: Dead or Undead (Zombie West)
Book Description Publication Date: March 18, 2012 WINNER: Kindle Book Review Best Indie Book of 2012 - Young Adult WINNER: League of Utah Writers Golden Quill Award 2012 FINALIST: The 2012 USA Best Book Awards (sponsored by USA Book News) - Young Adult SECOND PLACE: The 2012 Sharp Writ Book Awards - Young Adult Evolved Publishing presents the award-winning Wanted: Dead or Undead (Book 1 of The Zombie West Series) by Angela Scott. (Young Adult, Zombie Western Romance) Trace Monroe doesn't believe in luck. He never has. But when a fiery-headed cowgirl saunters through the saloon doors, wielding shotguns and a know-how for killing the living dead, he believes he just may be the luckiest man alive. Trace wants to join Red's posse, but she prefers to work alone--less messy that way. In order to become her traveling companion, Trace has to agree to her terms: no names, no questions, and if he gets bit, he can't beg for mercy when she severs his brain stem. He agrees, knowing only that Red is the sharpest shooter he's ever encountered. The fact she's stunning hasn't escaped his attention either. What he doesn't know, is that Red has a very good reason to be on top of her game. She not only has the answer for how they can all outlive the plague taking over the wild, wild west, she IS the answer. This eBook is DRM-free. THE ZOMBIE WEST Omnibus Edition (containing ALL three books, two short stories, and bonus material) now available here: tinyurl.com/lmvtq2h Someone's Daughter: In Search of Justice for Jane Doe Book Description Publication Date: October 16, 2009 In 1954, two college students were hiking along a creek outside of Boulder, Colorado, when they stumbled upon the body of a murdered young woman. Who was this woman? What had happened to her? The initial investigation turned up nothing, and the girl was buried in a local cemetery with a gravestone that read, "Jane Doe, April 1954, Age About 20 Years." Decades later, historian Silvia Pettem formed a partnership with law enforcement and forensic experts and set in motion the events that led to Jane Doe's exhumation and eventual identification, as well as the identity of her probable killer. The new Kindle version includes an Epilogue––with updated information on how the mystery finally was solved. |
