  "I'm not a coward, but when 11 inch shells come screaming at you, well I know why the Navy supply two pairs of pants." 
  If you like Max Hastings and World War Two naval history then you will love this autobiography which gives an easy to read insider view of life in the Royal Navy during the war. 
  Ronnie Turner had set his sights on a career with the Royal Navy and like Ant Middleton, he wouldn't stop until he'd achieved his goal of having 'a smack at the boche'. 
  His quest plucked him from his home in Liverpool and led him to the exotic temptations of Rio, freezing Falkland storms and searching for a heavily armed German raider in a rowing boat with six scousers and a padre. 
  Drawn from Ronnie's illegal war diary and illustrated with never seen before photographs of life on board a Royal Navy heavy cruiser, this enjoyable tale of pocket battleships, torpedoed crews and Admiral Harwood's tattoo's, all sprinkled with Spike Milligan like humour, make this a story you won't want to put down.

  His Greatest Speeches - How...

  An expert analysis of Abraham Lincoln's three most powerful speeches reveals his rhetorical genius and his thoughts on our national character. 
   
   
   
  Abraham Lincoln, our greatest president, believed that our national character was defined by three key moments: the writing of the Constitution, our declaration of independence from England, and the beginning of slavery on the North American continent. His thoughts on these landmarks can be traced through three speeches: the Lyceum Address, the Gettysburg Address, and the Second Inaugural. The latter two are well-known, enshrined forever on the walls of the Lincoln Memorial. The former is much less familiar to most, written a quarter century before his presidency, when he was a twenty-eight-year-old Illinois state legislator. 
   
   
   
  In His Greatest Speeches, professor Diana Schaub offers a brilliant line-by-line analysis of these timeless works, placing them in historical context and explaining the brilliance behind their rhetoric. The result is a complete vision of Lincoln's worldview that is sure to fascinate and inspire general audiences and history buffs alike. This book is a wholly original resource for considering the difficult questions of American purpose and identity, questions that are no less contentious or essential today than they were over two hundred years ago.

  What if your love story ended not in romance—but in murder? 
  The Kreutzer Sonata is Leo Tolstoy’s explosive confession of a man undone by love. On a quiet train ride, a fellow passenger shares the dark tale of his marriage—one that spiraled from desire into mistrust, jealousy, and eventually, an unthinkable crime. 
  In this modern translation, Tolstoy’s intense meditation on passion, marriage, and morality is presented with emotional depth and gripping clarity. A powerful short novel that holds nothing back. 
  What You’ll Hear in This Adaptation: 
  - A deeply personal, psychological descent into obsessive jealousy and regret 
  - A bold critique of love, marriage, and sexual hypocrisy 
  - A modern, emotionally intense rendition of Tolstoy’s rawest novella 
  - A tale of moral struggle that asks: Can love survive truth? 
  Short in length but epic in its emotional and ethical impact, The Kreutzer Sonata will challenge what you think you know about love.
