Download or read book Last Blood on Pomerania written by Tomasz Borowski and published by Helion. This book was released on 2016-04-11 with total page 201 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 28th SS Volunteer Grenadier Division ‘Wallonien’, which mostly consisted of French-speaking citizens of the Kingdom of Belgium – first as part of the Wehrmacht, and later in the ranks of the Waffen SS – fought as one of the national legions against the Red Army on the Eastern Front in February 1942. The Walloons gained fame during the legendary resistance in Cherkassy Pocket, where in early 1944 they lost more than fifty percent of their strength. In the summer of the same year they fought a defensive battle in Estonia in the region of Dorpat, and in February 1945 were directed to Western Pomerania, where until the last days of the war they put up a stubborn resistance to the armies of Stalin. This book, which was originally published in Polish, is based on the unpublished memoirs of participants of these events, and is the first account to describe the Walloons’ participation in the mysterious Pomeranian campaign in such a detailed manner. It tells the tragic story of the Walloon volunteers, who at all costs tried to stop the onrush of the enemy standing at the gates of the Third Reich. The Pomeranian odyssey led by the controversial and infamous Volksführer Leon Degrelle went on for three months, and the trial meant death and courage. Stargard, Altdamm, Neu Rosow – these are locations, that became synonyms for unconditional sacrifice. They are also a symbol of kameradschaft, of a group of tough guys and daredevils, who were determined to stake everything on one throw of the dice. The book is illustrated with unique photographs, known so far only to a small group of people. These are complemented by a special comic created by the French artist Godus and with images made with great attention to detail, which were produced for historical reconstruction, showing silhouettes of the Walloon soldiers. It is worth noting that some of these were made in the same location where the fighting raged in April 1945.

Download or read book First Blood written by David Morrell and published by David Morrell . This book was released on 2011-10-07 with total page 270 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From New York Times bestselling author, David Morrell, comes a classic thriller that introduced the character of Rambo, one of the most iconic action heroes of the twentieth century. Called “the father of the modern action novel,” FIRST BLOOD changed the genre. Although the book and the film adaptation have similarities, they are very different, especially its unexpected ending and its greater intensity. If you’ve only experienced the film, you’re in for a surprise. Once they were soldiers. Rambo, the ragged kid whose presence in town is considered a threat. And Teasle, the Chief of Police of Madison, Kentucky. Both have been trained to kill: Rambo in Vietnam, Teasle in Korea. They learned different military tactics, different ways of death and survival in two different wars. Now, without warning, they are enemies in a civilian combat that becomes a chase through the woods and mountains and caves above the town. As we follow them, we understand that once a man has been trained as a killer, perhaps he is changed forever. Award-winning FIRST BLOOD was published in 1972, was translated into 26 languages, and has never been out of print. It was one of the first novels to deal with post-traumatic stress disorder. David’s novelizations for RAMBO (FIRST BLOOD PART II) and RAMBO III are available as e-books. They’re quite different from the films and include revealing introductions. See also David’s RAMBO AND ME: THE STORY BEHIND THE STORY. Critical reactions: “A fine novel. . . . When Johnny comes marching home this time, watch out.” —The New York Times Sunday Book Review “A first-rate thriller.” —Newsweek “One of the finest chase novels you will ever read.” —Minneapolis Tribune “A terrific thriller.” —Saturday Review “One hell of a hard, fast novel.” —John D. MacDonald

Read Charlie's first-hand accounts of his record-setting 11, 16 and 27-day solo outlaw hunts across Texas, including the world-famous King and Kenedy Ranches, and how he single-handedly poached 116 trophy-class whitetail deer. Meet Charlie, the Prince of Poachers Charles Robert Beaty was born August 13, 1956 in the city of Tyler, Texas. Learning about hunting for the first time around the age of twelve, Charlie became fascinated with the idea of killing big whitetail deer. As an adult, his fascination turned into obsession. Charlie worked as a taxidermist while secretly living the life of an outlaw-hunter, poaching hundreds of deer and other animals under the noses of Texas Parks and Wildlife game wardens. After 22 years of poaching, Charlie finally reformed, turning himself in to the state game wardens and retiring his outlaw ways. Charlie chose to write Prince of Poachers to share his story along with why he no longer poaches and to warn others away from outlaw-hunting. A True-Life Outlaw-Hunting Adventure Read Charlie's first-hand account of illegally hunting across Texas, including the world-famous King and Kenedy Ranches, poaching an incredible 116 trophy-class whitetail deer over the course of 22 years. Join in as Charlie recalls taking friends of all backgrounds, including police officers, on many outlaw hunts. And find out why, after taking forty-one bucks over the course of seven seasons, Charlie surrendered to Texas Parks and Wildlife game wardens... only to return on a rampage, killing an additional seventy-five whitetail bucks. This book will keep you on the edge of your seat as you read Charlie's accounts of close calls with wardens and ranch security, rattling up his top dirty-dozen bucks, his record-setting 11, 16, and 27 day outlaw-hunts, surviving off the land, and always making it out alive even when his friends feared him to be dead. 2% of all proceeds from book sales are donated to Operation Game Thief.
Download or read book Last Best Gifts written by Kieran Healy and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2010-08-15 with total page 208 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: More than any other altruistic gesture, blood and organ donation exemplifies the true spirit of self-sacrifice. Donors literally give of themselves for no reward so that the life of an individual—often anonymous—may be spared. But as the demand for blood and organs has grown, the value of a system that depends solely on gifts has been called into question, and the possibility has surfaced that donors might be supplemented or replaced by paid suppliers. Last Best Gifts offers a fresh perspective on this ethical dilemma by examining the social organization of blood and organ donation in Europe and the United States. Gifts of blood and organs are not given everywhere in the same way or to the same extent—contrasts that allow Kieran Healy to uncover the pivotal role that institutions play in fashioning the contexts for donations. Procurement organizations, he shows, sustain altruism by providing opportunities to give and by producing public accounts of what giving means. In the end, Healy suggests, successful systems rest on the fairness of the exchange, rather than the purity of a donor’s altruism or the size of a financial incentive.
