Book Description
William Weston is a senior ranking army officer on a mission. As he cons his way through military and government bureaucracy to have his deployment paperwork signed, no one knows that he has accessed top military secrets, stolen hundreds of thousands of dollars from the Pentagon, and is wanted in eleven states. A short time later, Dr. Weston arrives in Kosovo as the chief of psychiatry in the midst of a brutal war. It has been a long year for the soldiers who have endured attacks propagated by infiltrating Serb units who line the border region near Camp Bondsteel. As Brigadier General Thomas Moore welcomes a new task force that includes Dr. Weston, he has no idea that very soon Weston will undermine his leaders, direct soldiers to disregard orders, and claim he is the commander of the detachment. When his fraudulent credentials are finally exposed, a massive cover-up ensues to protect innocent military and congressional leaders. Now only time will tell if two officers who dare to follow their beliefs and hold true to the army values will pay the price for doing the right thing. In this suspenseful military tale based on a true story, all hell breaks loose in the United States Army leadership ranks during the Kosovo War after a senior medical officer is discovered to be a fraud.

Pages : 399
Book Description
The meticulously researched story of one of the greatest regiments in Napoleonic history, the French 9th Light Infantry. An elite battalion under Louis XVI, the 9th Light Infantry regiment were with Napoleon from almost the beginning, turning the field at Marengo and breaking the Austrians. They then spent over a decade fighting their way across the continent, following Napoleon to the bitter end. Bringing their Eagle out of hiding when Napoleon returned from exile in 1815 they almost saved the day again, at Waterloo, spearheading a charge to rejoin Napoleon. But unlike at Marengo, they failed. Napoleon dubbed them 'Incomparable', and their story is extraordinary even by the standards of the dramatic and turbulent years in which they lived.

Onward to Victory
Author: Pieter Kriel
Publisher: Partridge Africa
ISBN: 1482808889
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 204
Book Description
Apart from a few well-known passages, the book of Revelation is a mystery to most Christians. The terrible images that are used are difficult to understand, and the little we do understand seems to present a picture of doom and gloom. However, the book of Revelation was written to comfort the persecuted believers who were facing daily onslaughts by the forces of evil. It has a powerful message for the believers of all ages, including todays believers. If you can get past all the seemingly incomprehensible imagery and unlock the code, you will find that its message is an integral part of the message that we find in the rest of the Bible. In fact, it is like the tip of the spear. Most of the important themes in the Bible as a whole find their fulfillment in the book of Revelation. The purpose of this book is not to give some radical new interpretation of the book of Revelation. It is to remain faithful to the message of the Bible as a whole while opening this wonderful but often misunderstood part of Gods Word for todays believers. This book will help you not only to understand the message of Revelation but also to apply it to your own life. This will help you to persevere through difficulties and persecution until the victory of Christ is fully enforced in all of creation. A study guide is included so that you can also use the book for group Bible study.

Custer, the Seventh Cavalry, and the Little Big Horn
Author: Mike O'Keefe
Publisher: University of Oklahoma Press
ISBN: 0806188146
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 946
Book Description
Since the shocking news first broke in 1876 of the Seventh Cavalry’s disastrous defeat at the Little Big Horn, fascination with the battle—and with Lieutenant George Armstrong Custer—has never ceased. Widespread interest in the subject has spawned a vast outpouring of literature, which only increases with time. This two-volume bibliography of Custer literature is the first to be published in some twenty-five years and the most complete ever assembled. Drawing on years of research, Michael O’Keefe has compiled entries for roughly 3,000 books and 7,000 articles and pamphlets. Covering both nonfiction and fiction (but not juvenile literature), the bibliography focuses on events beginning with Custer’s tenure at West Point during the 1850s and ending with the massacre at Wounded Knee in 1890. Included within this span are Custer’s experiences in the Civil War and in Texas, the 1873 Yellowstone and 1874 Black Hills expeditions, the Great Sioux War of 1876–77, and the Seventh Cavalry’s pursuit of the Nez Perces in 1877. The literature on Custer, the Battle of the Little Big Horn, and the Seventh Cavalry touches the entire American saga of exploration, conflict, and settlement in the West, including virtually all Plains Indian tribes, the frontier army, railroading, mining, and trading. Hence this bibliography will be a valuable resource for a broad audience of historians, librarians, collectors, and Custer enthusiasts.
