Originally published in 1902 Methuen writes: “From whatever standpoint we regard this war, it was a blunder and a crime. Its drain of life and treasure, its loss of military prestige, the enormous increase in our debt and in our taxation, the depletion of our army… The memory of two countries swept with fire, of freedom taken from two free nations, of 20 000 women and children slain by our neglect and folly...”

In 1987, Paul Morris went to Angola as a reluctant conscript soldier, where he experienced the fear and filth of war. Twenty-five years later, in 2012, Paul returned to Angola, and embarked on a 1500-kilometre cycle trip, solo and unsupported, across the country. His purpose was to see Angola in peacetime, to replace the war map in his mind with a more contemporary peace map, to exorcise the ghosts of war once and for all. Shifting skilfully between present and past, Back to Angola chronicles Pauls epic journey, from Cuito Cuanavale to the remnants of his units base in northern Namibia, and vividly recreates his experiences as a young soldier caught up in a war in a foreign land.  Along the way, the book provides thought-provoking reflections on childhood, masculinity, violence, trauma and friendship. Back to Angola is an honest, intelligent and deeply moving account of war and its effects on an individual mind, a generation of people, and the psyche and landscape of a country.

SAS Savage Wars of Peace - Anthony Kemp - 1994 - Paperback in good, clean and tight condition.  This work, the sequel to Anthony Kemp's definitive "The SAS at War", which dealt with the foundation of the Regiment by David Stirling and its role up to 1945, takes the story forward to the storming of the Iranian Embassy, the attack on the IRA in Gibraltar, and the under-cover Gulf War. Following the Second World War, the SAS became essentially a component of the British Army and took part in colonial campaigns, including those in Malaya, Borneo, South Arabia and Oman. Since 1969, though, elements of the Regiment have been stationed more or less permanently in an under-cover role in Northern Ireland. It was at about that time too that the Regiment became involved in counter terrorist activities elsewhere, including England itself. Since then a cloak of secrecy has descended over all SAS activities, including those in the Falklands and the Gulf War. Intense speculation has been the inevitable result. This book, based on interviews and on more co-operation than the SAS has granted any other writer, tells us the maximum compatible with security of a regiment which has become the most feared and respected of special forces anywhere in the world.

This item is sold brand new. It is ordered on demand from our supplier and is usually dispatched within 8 - 13 working days War corrupts. Endless war corrupts absolutely. Ever since 9/11 America has fought an endless war on terror, seeking enemies everywhere and never promising peace. In "Pay Any Price," James Risen reveals an extraordinary litany of the hidden costs of that war: from squandered and stolen dollars, to outrageous abuses of power, to wars on normalcy, decency, and truth. In the name of fighting terrorism, our government has done things every bit as shameful as its historic wartime abuses?and until this audiobook, it has worked very hard to cover them up. Lincoln suspended habeas corpus. FDR authorized the internment of thousands of Japanese Americans. Presidents Bush and Obama now must face their own reckoning. Power corrupts, but it is endless war that corrupts absolutely. Features Summary War corrupts. Endless war corrupts absolutely. Ever since 9/11 America has fought an endless war on terror, seeking enemies everywhere and never promising peace...

Hardcover with dust jacket and 421 pages in good pages. R46 postage in SA.   I knew almost nothing about Stimson when I started this book, and was quite curious to learn just what the Secretary of War contributed to the effort to win WWII. But I enjoyed the first half of the book more than the part about the war. Stimson's career was quite interesting - US Attorney in NY prosecuting anti-trust cases against the sugar companies, candidate for governor of NY, Secretary of War under Taft, Secretary of State under Hoover, governor general of the Philippines, Secretary of War during World War II. Nominally written by Bundy, it is very much Stimson's autobiography. There is no bibliography, no notes. The sources are primarily Stimson's diary and papers, and of course the 18 months of discussions Bundy and Stimson had while working together on the book.
