Book excerpt: Three novels of the Great War in one special Leonaur edition Joseph Altsheler was well known as an author of adventures set within momentous historical periods and was highly regarded for the attention to factual detail and the accuracy with which he was able to evoke the authenticity of time, place and personalities who occupied the worlds of his novels. Leonaur, at the time of the publication of this new volume, already publish his noted American Civil War series, the French and Indian War series and Colonial Frontier series, all of which have their own aficionados. This book, another thrilling adventure series linked by characters who feature in each novel, is set during the cataclysmic time of conflict that was the Great War of 1914-18 and so, from Altsheler's perspective, was fiction of his own times. Because this saga is recounted within fewer novels than Altsheler usually wrote on a single theme, Leonaur is pleased to present the complete Great War trilogy, 'The Guns of Europe', 'The Forest of Swords' and 'The Hosts of the Air, ' in a single substantial volume. In typical Altsheler manner, these novels introduce us to the principal character, the young American, John Scott, his comrades in arms of the French army and air force together with 'the Strangers'-foreigners who fight for the cause of 'La Belle France'-as we join them in many engaging adventures as they battle the 'Boche.' This delightful collectors edition is available in softcover and hardcover for collectors. Leonaur hardcovers are a credit to any library, they feature full colour dust jackets, real cloth covers, gold foil embossed spines and taped head and tail bands-the ideal way to read and own that 'special' book.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: #1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER The magnificent conclusion to Rick Atkinson's acclaimed Liberation Trilogy about the Allied triumph in Europe during World War II It is the twentieth century's unrivaled epic: at a staggering price, the United States and its allies liberated Europe and vanquished Hitler. In the first two volumes of his bestselling Liberation Trilogy, Rick Atkinson recounted how the American-led coalition fought through North Africa and Italy to the threshold of victory. Now, in The Guns at Last Light, he tells the most dramatic story of all—the titanic battle for Western Europe. D-Day marked the commencement of the final campaign of the European war, and Atkinson's riveting account of that bold gamble sets the pace for the masterly narrative that follows. The brutal fight in Normandy, the liberation of Paris, the disaster that was Operation Market Garden, the horrific Battle of the Bulge, and finally the thrust to the heart of the Third Reich—all these historic events and more come alive with a wealth of new material and a mesmerizing cast of characters. Atkinson tells the tale from the perspective of participants at every level, from presidents and generals to war-weary lieutenants and terrified teenage riflemen. When Germany at last surrenders, we understand anew both the devastating cost of this global conflagration and the enormous effort required to win the Allied victory. With the stirring final volume of this monumental trilogy, Atkinson's accomplishment is manifest. He has produced the definitive chronicle of the war that unshackled a continent and preserved freedom in the West.

He always stood impressed, and perhaps a little awed before centuries of culture, and he failed to understand how any one could challenge the accepted past. John's Philistine spirit, which he deemed all the more irregular in one so young pained him at times. Yet it was more assumed than real with young Scott.They reached their hotel and passed into the dining-room, where both did full justice to the good German food. John did not fail to make his usual inspection of guests, but he started a little, when he saw the Prussian officer of the gallery, alone at a table by a window overlooking the Elbe. It was one of the pleasantest views in Europe, but John knew very well that the man was thinking little of it. His jaw had not lost is pugnacious thrust, and he snapped his orders to the waiter as if he were rebuking a recruit.Nobody had told John that he was a Prussian, but the young American knew it nevertheless, and he knew him to be a product, out of the very heart of that iron military systRead More
