Tank Men

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

B1552

The author served in the British Army, including the duration of the 1990/91 Gulf war. This, his fifth book, covers a very popular military subject from a new angle. When the tank appeared on the battlefields of France and Belgium during the 1914-18 War, it introduced a major new approach to warfare. Armour was not new, only the combination of self-propelled machine, artillery and armour.

100 Years of British Naval Aviation

Wednesday, November 11th, 2009

R1564

When naval aviation was first considered, Britain still ruled the waves 
with the greatest fleet and the best technology. It was therefore to be
expected that British naval aviators would be at the forefront of 
innovation and exploration of this new method of fighting at sea. As 
British power declined, the contribution of British naval aviators 
continued to lead other navies.

and computer simulators far too many publishers overlook the young
reader and complain about the demise of book reading.
