Book Description
A fly-on-the-wall account of the most thrilling 36 days in the history of Maharashtra politics. The battle of Kurukshetra described in the Mahabharata lasted for 18 days. In the aftermath of the 2019 Maharashtra assembly elections, another battle was fought-though not on any battlefield. It went on for 36 days. Neither of these battles was a spontaneous attack. Rather, the seeds of both were sown over the years, and a broken promise tipped the scales in both cases. The similarities don't end there. As you encounter the dramatis personae of the 36-day political drama-or should we say pieces of the game of chess-you may find yourself drawing parallels between them and the cast and characters of the great Indian epic. Embedded with tales of ambition, deception, trust and betrayal, 36 Days reads like a quintessential thriller. Only, it is for real...

36 Days
Author: Hugh Dolan
Publisher: Pan
ISBN: 9781742613376
Category : Military maneuvers
Languages : en
Pages : 445
Book Description
When Australian troops stormed Z Beach in the pre-dawn darkness of 25 April 1915, it was the culmination of one of the most complex and daunting operations in the history of warfare - a seaborne assault on a heavily fortified shore, defended by a well-prepared and forewarned enemy. To add to the difficulty, the assault was planned and executed in just thirty-six days. The risks were enormous, and the death toll on the beach at Anzac cove could have been catastrophic - as it was with the British landings further south. Yet the ANZACS had been allowed to organise their own assault, and their ingenuity, intelligence-gathering and willingness to do the unorthodox allowed them to seize a foothold and fulfil the task they had been set by their commanders. All too often the scale of that task and the successful way the ANZACs approached it have been overshadowed by events later in the campaign. Hugh Dolan, a former intelligence officer in the Australian military, has minutely re-examined the assault itself, giving us a day-by-day account of the build-up to the landing that shows a very different side to the Gallipoli story. Drawing on a wealth of previously unpublished material and research, he has produced a riveting work of narrative history that sheds a fresh light on the original ANZACs.

Do Not Find Me

Category : Family secrets
Languages : en
Pages : 0
Book Description
As a young man, Gigi Paulo arrives in New York and is immediately drawn to a girl he sees in a bar near Penn Station. Before he can approach her, she is gone. He returns to the bar for weeks, hoping to see her again, dreams of her at night and searches the crowds for her face. Quiet and careful, he is not the type to become obsessed by a stranger. But obsessed he is. Two years later he meets her at a party. Her name is Corrine. She seems to like his cooking and the blues albums he collects, but she never stays with him for long. As he discovers the secrets and violence of her life, Gigi finds himself unable to rescue her and barely able to save himself. He flees New York, but his obsession with Corrine follows him, even when he returns to his home in northern Minnesota, where he marries, has a daughter, and fishes the deep, quiet lakes he knows so well. After he dies, his daughter uncovers her father's desire for this unknown woman, leaving her to question the inherent perils of his life as well as her own. Dark and poetic, Do Not Find Me moves between the voices of Gigi Paulo and his daughter with a compelling grace, its haunting undercurrents remaining long after the story has ended.
