Book excerpt: ON THE EVE OF CHAOS HE'S AMERICA'S LAST LINE OF DEFENSE. Someone has organized the inner city's toughest gangs, trained and armed them with sophisticated weaponry and set them loose on the streets. By the time the police and politicos can act, it's too late: the ruthless armies of the night have turned America into a war zone. Every home and public place is a potential target. No one is safe. In one brutal instant Professor David Holden had lost all a man could lose. Now the ex-Navy SEAL commando is fighting the war only a desperate man can wage. And once he's begun, no force on earth can stop him-not the military, not the government... and certainly not the enemy! About the Series The Defender series depicts life in an America where anarchy reigns due to a small group of Marxist-leaning terrorists using inner-city gangs and a weak and incompetent federal response to them. Groups of citizens, known as Patriots, band together for protection and take the war to opposing terrorists. A small-college history professor and former Navy SEAL, Dr. David Holden, leads a group of Patriots in an unidentified area known as the Metro.

Download or read book The Killing Ground written by Tim Travers and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2009-02-19 with total page 331 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This books explains why the British Army fought the way it did in the First World War. It integrates social and military history and the impact of ideas to tell the story of how the army, especially the senior officers, adapted to the new technological warfare and asks: Was the style of warfare on the Western Front inevitable? Using an extensive range of unpublished diaries, letters, memoirs and Cabinet and War Office files, Professor Travers explains how and why the ideas, tactics and strategies emerged. He emphasises the influence of pre-war social and military attitudes, and examines the early life and career of Sir Douglas Haig. The author's analysis of the preparations for the Battles of the Somme and Passchendaele provide new interpretations of the role of Haig and his GHQ, and he explains the reasons for the unexpected British withdrawal in March 1918. An appendix supplies short biographies of senior British officers. In general, historians of the First World War are in two hostile camps: those who see the futility of lions led by donkeys on the one hand and on the other the apologists for Haig and the conduct of the war. Professor Travers' immensely readable book provides a bridge between the two.
