PANZERS EAST AND WEST
by Dieter Stenger

Organized during 1943, 10th SS Panzer Division saw its first action in the spring of 1944 during the attempt to relieve an encircled German army on the Eastern Front. Several months later they were ordered west to Normandy, where by mid-June 1944 German defenses against the Allied offensive were crumbling. Here the division engaged in a series of armored ounterattacks against British and American forces. The 10th SS gradually had to fall back to Falaise, where the division escaped the Allied encirclement with no tanks and only a fraction of its men. They next defended against the Allied airborne assault during Operation Market Garden in September 1944, fought in Alsace before returning to the Eastern Front. There, east of Berlin, the division participated in the final, futile battles against the Red Army before escaping to Czechoslovakia to surrender to the U.S. Army.

THE MARCH OF FOLLY: FROM TROY TO VIETNAM
by Barbara W Tuchman

The author explores one of the paradoxes of history: the pursuit by governments of policies contrary to their own interests.She identifies the hallmark of folly in government from the dispersion of the ten tribes of Israel to Japan's attack on Pearl Harbor: the self destructive act carried out despite the availability of a feasible alternative. Tuchman illuminates four decisive turning points in history and takes us into the lives of six Popes who by carrying the secular spirit of their age to excess not only brought the Holy See into disrepute but broke apart the unity of Christendom.

THE SECRET WAR
by Brian Johnson

Mass market paperback. Pages browning. Creasing on back cover. The various secret weaponry and electronics used in WWII. Includes the German Knickebein beams and British counter-measures, the V1 and V2, Ultra and Enigma. Brian Johnson also recalls some of the fantastic weapons which like the magnetic mines had to be countered quickly. There were 40 ton gliders, rocket powered guided missiles and jet fighters, which came too late. There was also the Great Panjandrum; two massive, rocket-propelled, 10 foot wooden wheels, connected by 2 tons of explosives. It was to be launched by a landing ship on D-Day, race up the beach and blow a massive hole in the Atlantic Wall. It was never used because it proved to be more dangerous to those who launched it than it was to the Germans!

THE BURNS BOYS
by Alistair Renwick

The tale of Robert Burns, a grandson of the Bard, who sailed to Singapore in 1846 and worked as a trader in Singapore, Labuan and along the North-West coast of Borneo. He was the first European to explore a major river system in the country that is now the East Malaysian State of Sarawak and which was then controlled by the Kayan, one of the fiercest tribes of headhunters. He lost his job as an agent of a Scots-based firm in Singapore. Undaunted, Burns traded on his own account, but on his last voyage in the schooner Dolphin, he was murdered by pirates at sea, off the Northern tip of Borneo.
