Book excerpt: As a young man growing up in Boston, Leo Zaccaria truly lives the American dream. The son of Italian immigrants, Leo has everything an American boy can desire—friends, a quality education, a series of rewarding jobs, and even his own car. Most of all, Leo and others of his generation have the assurance that their lives will be marked by peace and prosperity. The War to End All Wars is over, and nothing can stop them from living their dreams. Years later, Leo finds himself in a situation all too familiar to American men of his generation. From an idyllic youth in a burgeoning country, Leo is thrust into an unthinkable war halfway around the world. When Leo is taken prisoner at the Battle of the Bulge, his memories of the life he once knew in America are all he has to keep himself alive. The first installment in an expansive and ambitious biographical novel, War Record: Dreams of a Stolen World captures a defining moment in American history. When faced with the horrors of the Second World War, Leo's only defense is the indomitable spirit cultivated by his authentic American upbringing. As Leo toils for the Third Reich in a forced labor camp, he realizes that the key to survival lies within himself, in his Dreams of a Stolen World.

Download or read book What Every Person Should Know About War written by Chris Hedges and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2007-11-01 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Acclaimed New York Times journalist and author Chris Hedges offers a critical -- and fascinating -- lesson in the dangerous realities of our age: a stark look at the effects of war on combatants. Utterly lacking in rhetoric or dogma, this manual relies instead on bare fact, frank description, and a spare question-and-answer format. Hedges allows U.S. military documentation of the brutalizing physical and psychological consequences of combat to speak for itself. Hedges poses dozens of questions that young soldiers might ask about combat, and then answers them by quoting from medical and psychological studies. • What are my chances of being wounded or killed if we go to war? • What does it feel like to get shot? • What do artillery shells do to you? • What is the most painful way to get wounded? • Will I be afraid? • What could happen to me in a nuclear attack? • What does it feel like to kill someone? • Can I withstand torture? • What are the long-term consequences of combat stress? • What will happen to my body after I die? This profound and devastating portrayal of the horrors to which we subject our armed forces stands as a ringing indictment of the glorification of war and the concealment of its barbarity.

Download or read book 29th Divisional Artillery War Record and Honours Book 1915 1918 written by Lt Col R.M. Johnson and published by Andrews UK Limited. This book was released on 2012-03-26 with total page 240 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The 29th Division (“The Incomparable 29th”) was formed between January and March 1915 and took part in the Gallipoli campaign from the landings in April 1915 till evacuated in January 1916, and then went to the Western Front where it remained for the rest of the war. In all it won twenty-three VCs, the highest number awarded to any division, one of them to Capt Walford of the divisional artillery. This record originated in the Honours Book kept by 29th Division's GOC, Maj-Gen de Lisle (June 1915 - March 1918), and continued by his successor, Maj-Gen D.S Cayley. The original intention had been to provide the recipients of honours with some record of the deeds for which they had been awarded. The Honours Book, however, did not include the text of the recommendations, obviously impracticable on active service, but the task was undertaken, as far as the divisional artillery was concerned, after the division had settled in Germany as part of the Army of Occupation. Then it was decided to improve on the original idea and include a short history of the doings of the divisional artillery, a list of casualties, and a record of officers' services. Part I contains the list of honours to officers and men, grouped separately and arranged in alphabetical order with citations, followed by the same list (less citations) arranged according to units, in chronological order. Part II is the list of all those who were killed, wounded or missing, arranged in alphabetical order, officers and other ranks grouped separately. Details include the battery, date and nature of casualty. Part III contains the record of services of all officers who served in the divisional artillery between the Gallipoli Landing (25th April 1915) and the Armistice. The names are arranged alphabetically. Part IV is the short history (75 pages) of the divisional artillery, what it did from mobilization to the occupation of the Rhineland in March 1919. This history includes a table showing the artillery organization at Cape Helles on 23rd August 1915 and the divisional artillery staff and commanders at the evacuation. The narrative itself is in diary form, based on the War Diaries, and concludes with copies of some of the congratulatory messages received by the divisional artillery.
