Jeremy Hall’s childhood in the white-ruled apartheid South Africa of the 1950's and ’60s was ostensibly idyllic: growing up in the farming areas of Natal, he had free rein to pander to his keen exploratory mind, yet niggling away was entrenched racism and interracial hatred. Closeted in the hallowed halls of an English-speaking high school, the revelation of the real world that followed — a world of township unrest, Afrikaner politicians issuing dire warnings of the red and black hordes massing on the borders — exploded into Hall’s psyche with his national-service call-up into the South African Defence Force (SADF), where he encountered the institutionalized hatred of the Afrikaner hierarchy for the English-speaking recruits, the  rowe, or ‘scabs’. Disillusioned and unsettled, following his SADF conscription, Hall found himself in 1976 signing on for three years with 2 Commando The Rhodesian Light Infantry as the bush war in that country erupted from a simmering, low-key insurgency into full-blown war. As a paratrooper with this crack airborne unit, he was to see continual combat on Fireforce operations and cross-border raids into Zambia and Mozambique, such as Operation Dingo, the 1977 Rhodesian attack on ZANLA’s Chimoio base.   PAPERBACK: 360 PAGES WITH PHOTOS & MAPS. Published March 2014

 Postage: Option 1  is not available. Book 2.5kg please choose option 2 or 3  World War 11 Day by Day  - Donald Sommerville See photos for book condition.   As New  1989 320 pages Big Luxury edition Bison Group Many of the day to day facts of a truly global war When the conflict is global, somewhere around the world and at all hours, shots are being fired and people are dying. Therefore, for any day there will be some action or event to report. Although there is an entry for nearly every day, there are some days for which there is none. For example, there is no report for August 2, 1942. Not a criticism, just a note. Strictly speaking, the book begins in June 1919 with the signing of the Treaty of Versailles and the Treaty of St Germain that formally ended World War I. This is fitting, for it was not a peace, just an interlude. The major events that laid the foundation for the official start of the war on September 1, 1939 are briefly mentioned. The ebb and flow of Allied fortunes during the war are closely followed by reading these entries. Since all are short, there is very little that could be interpreted as political commentary, it is a book of concise facts. If you are interested in the day by day actions of World War II, this is a book that you can read for enlightenment. It is an excellent book to be placed on a coffee table, to be picked up and read a couple of pages at a time. Profusely illustrated with pictures from all sides in the conflict, it is concise yet complete. Of course there are omissions, with nearly every nation involved, it is impossible to include all significant events in a book this size.     I have many similar books available    I have many books on sale, please check my listings. I am happy to combine and save postage for you.  

Limited edition: NUMBER 140/650 1988, first edition. Hard cover with dust cover,  256  pages. Very good condition. Over 1kg. With the signing of the Armistice in 1918 came the end of another era in Army life. The horse, so long the mainstay of transport in the Army, was being replaced by the lorry and the RASC was in the forefront of the development of mechanical transport, with all its attendant challenges of training, manpower and maintenance. The development of wheeled vehicles capable of moving off roads, with the introduction of multi-axle drive and pneumatic tyres, were to restore mobility to the battlefield. The widespread use of motor transport led to the prime importance of the provision and handling of supplies of fuel, and influenced the strategic importance of the oilfields. Thus, as an Army could no longer fight, or even exist, without supplies and transport, the activities of the RASC, which provided both, is a history of the activities of the Army as a whole. Despite shortages of equipment and manpower, by the time of crisis in 1938 and 1939, the training of the Army's Transport and Supply service for its role in World War Two was both realistic and imaginative. This account gives a fascinating new insight into the personalities and events which made this possible.

For other names, please, see section Name.The Hetmanate was founded by the Hetman of Zaporizhian Host Bohdan Khmelnytsky during the Uprising of 1648¿57. In the Soviet, Ukrainian, and Russian historiography as a major benchmark of Cossack Hetmanate was a signing of a military alliance with the Tsardom of Russia during the Council of Pereyaslav. The official document which symbolized the union between the modern Russia and Ukraine however was never preserved and thought to be a fiction. The 1667 Treaty of Andrusovo, however, was conducted without any representation from the Cossack Hetmanate and concluded the borders between the Polish and Russian states, dividing the Hetmanate in half along the Dnieper.After a failed attempt to break union with Russia by Ivan Mazepa in 1708, the whole area was included into the Government of Kiev and the Cossack autonomy was very restricted. Catherine II of Russia officially abolished the institute of Hetman in 1764 and in 1764-1781 Cossack Hetmanate was incorporated as the Little Russia Governorate headed by Pyotr Rumyantsev. ____________________________________________________  Feel free to e-mail me with any questions.

John F. Kennedy Presidential $1 Dollar Coin as issued by the US Mint UNCIRCULATED encapsuled DESCRIPTION The Presidential Kennedy $1 Coins have circulating finishes that have never been placed into circulation, minted at the U.S. Mint at Philadelphia and Denver.  Each coin bears a likeness of President Kennedy on the obverse (heads) and the Statue of Liberty on the reverse (tails). The inscriptions on the obverse of the 2015 John F. Kennedy Presidential $1 Coin are: “JOHN F. KENNEDY” “IN GOD WE TRUST” “35th PRESIDENT” “1961–1963” John F. Kennedy History: John Fitzgerald Kennedy was born in Brookline, Massachusetts, on May 29, 1917. He enrolled at Harvard in 1940 and, during his senior year, wrote his thesis on Great Britain’s lack of readiness for war with Germany, which was later published as Why England Slept. Despite numerous health problems, Kennedy joined the U.S. Navy after graduation and went to the South Pacific, where he was injured when the patrol torpedo boat he commanded was rammed by an enemy warship. Despite his injuries, Kennedy guided the surviving crew members to safety and was awarded the Navy and Marine Corps Medal and a Purple Heart for his heroism. Following his military service, Kennedy worked as a reporter for a brief period before successfully running for the U.S. House of Representatives, where he served from 1947 to 1953, and then the U.S. Senate, serving there from 1953 to 1960. During his tenure in the Senate, while recuperating from back surgery, Kennedy wrote his Pulitzer Prize–winning book, Profiles in Courage. The Democratic Party nominated Kennedy as its candidate for president in 1960. He won the election by a small margin, becoming the youngest man elected president and the first Roman Catholic to hold the office. Kennedy was in office less than three years when he was struck down by an assassin’s bullet on November 22, 1963. Highlights of President Kennedy’s administration include the: Launch of the first American manned spaceflight, Freedom 7 Bay of Pigs invasion, an attempt to overthrow Cuban leader Fidel Castro Cuban Missile Crisis, the confrontation between the U.S. and Soviet Union over nuclear missiles in Cuba Signing of the Limited Nuclear Test Ban Treaty, an agreement between the U.S., Great Britain and Soviet Union to ban nuclear weapons testing in the atmosphere, space and underwater Establishment of the Peace Corps   SPECIFICATIONS Denomination:$1 Composition:6% Zinc, 3.5% Manganese  2% Nickel, Balance Copper Weight:8.100 grams Diameter:1.043 inches (26.49 mm) Edge:Lettered Mint and Mint Mark:Philadelphia – P Denver – D    weight: 10g Combine orders up to 2kg via courier     MORE ITEMS HERE PAYMENT within 3 days, please else items will be relisted and a SALE NOT COMPLETE will be filed If you're placing multiple orders to combine shipping please notify seller, beforehand to avoid a SNC
