Joe is spending the holidays alone this year except for his son’s West Highland terrier, Neville, a dog that hasn’t met an obstacle he can’t dig under or squeeze through. Neville’s antics are interfering with Joe’s ability to get his work done. Worse, Neville has attracted the attention of the new neighbor, Helen, a bewitching woman Joe is finding hard to ignore.

Download or read book Guarded by Angels written by Alard B. Ages and published by Trafford Publishing. This book was released on 2007-06 with total page 168 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: As a young man, Alard Ages survived Nazi-occupied Holland and escaped at the age of 18. He eventually emigrated to Canada, where he lives on the west coast of British Columbia. For many years, Alard has taken time away from his professional life as an oceanographer to lecture high school students about the effects of oil spills on the marine environment. During these lectures, students and teachers were eager to hear of Alard's experiences during WWII. It is their enthusiasm that inspires this memoir, "Guarded by Angels." It was not a guardian angel who had guided Alard to freedom. The book is a tale of sympathetic countrymen, of total strangers who advised him on routes to take and who courageously helped him through danger. It is a tale of German guards who should have stopped and arrested him but who didn't. It is a tale of courage and resistance through the eyes of a young man during some of the world's darkest hours.

Download or read book The Girls Next Door written by Kara Dixon Vuic and published by Harvard University Press. This book was released on 2019-02-04 with total page 393 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The story of the intrepid young women who volunteered to help and entertain American servicemen fighting overseas, from World War I through the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq. The emotional toll of war can be as debilitating to soldiers as hunger, disease, and injury. Beginning in World War I, in an effort to boost soldiers’ morale and remind them of the stakes of victory, the American military formalized a recreation program that sent respectable young women and famous entertainers overseas. Kara Dixon Vuic builds her narrative around the young women from across the United States, many of whom had never traveled far from home, who volunteered to serve in one of the nation’s most brutal work environments. From the “Lassies” in France and mini-skirted coeds in Vietnam to Marlene Dietrich and Marilyn Monroe, Vuic provides a fascinating glimpse into wartime gender roles and the tensions that continue to complicate American women’s involvement in the military arena. The recreation-program volunteers heightened the passions of troops but also domesticated everyday life on the bases. Their presence mobilized support for the war back home, while exporting American culture abroad. Carefully recruited and selected as symbols of conventional femininity, these adventurous young women saw in the theater of war a bridge between public service and private ambition. This story of the women who talked and listened, danced and sang, adds an intimate chapter to the history of war and its ties to life in peacetime.
