Escape, Evasion and Revenge

The True Story of a German-Jewish RAF Pilot Who Bombed Berlin and Became a PoW

By: Marc H. Stevens

“A truly remarkable story . . . Marc Stevens has produced a fitting tribute to his father . . . who played a full part in the defeat of Nazi Germany.” —HistoryOfWar.org Peter Stevens was a German-Jewish refugee who escaped Nazi persecution as a teenager in 1933. He joined the RAF in 1939 and after eighteen months of pilot training he started flying bombing missions against his own country. He completed twenty-two missions before being shot down and taken prisoner by the Nazis in September 1941. To escape became his raison d’être and his great advantage was that he was in his native country. He was recaptured after each of his several escapes, but the Nazis never realized his true identity. He took part in the logistics and planning of several major breakouts, including The Great Escape, but was never successful in getting back to England. After liberation, when the true nature of his exploits came to light, he was awarded the Military Cross. He then served as a British spy at the beginning of the Cold War before emigrating to Canada to resume a normal life. This is the story of a heavily conflicted young man, alone in a world that is in the midst of destruction. He is afforded an opportunity to help his persecuted people to obtain a small measure of revenge. It is at once a sad yet uplifting tale of thankless and unheralded heroism. “This is a wartime career that would make any son proud, but Steven’s real triumph is in writing a biography that will satisfy the most discerning historian.” —National Defence Journal

Criminal Procedures

Prosecution and Adjudication: Cases, Statutes, and Executive Materials [Connected EBook with Study Center]

By: Marc L. Miller,Ronald F. Wright,Jenia I. Turner,Kay L. Levine

Criminal Procedures: Prosecution and Adjudication, by Marc Miller, Ronald Wright, Jenia Turner, and Kay Levine, focuses on the interactions among multiple institutions in shaping the law of Criminal Procedure, bringing state courts, legislatures, prosecutor offices, and public defenders into the picture alongside the U.S. Supreme Court. Buy a new version of this textbook and receive access to the Connected eBook with Study Center on CasebookConnect, including: lifetime access to the online ebook with highlight, annotation, and search capabilities; practice questions from your favorite study aids; an outline tool and other helpful resources. Connected eBooks provide what you need most to be successful in your law school classes. In Criminal Procedures: Prosecution and Adjudication: Cases, Statutes, and Executive Materials, the highly respected author team presents a student-friendly, comprehensive survey of the laws and practices at work between the time a person is charged and the moment when the courts hear an appeal after the offender’s conviction and sentence. In the Sixth Edition, the authors retain the vitality and contemporary approach of the book with an updated selection of cases, statutes, and office policies. Covering in detail the “bail-to-jail” portions of the criminal process, this casebook features extensive use of documents from multiple institutions including U.S. Supreme Court cases, state high court cases, state and federal statutes, rules of procedure, and prosecutorial policies; a real-world perspective that focuses on high-volume issues of current importance to defendants, lawyers, courts, legislators, and the public; interdisciplinary examination of the impact that different procedures have on the enforcers, lawyers, courts, communities, defendants, and victims; points of comparison between U.S. practices and the systems at work in other countries; and frequent use of Problems to give the instructor options for applying concepts and doctrines in realistic practice settings. New to the 7th Edition: Coverage of declination and plea negotiation policies in the offices of “progressive prosecutors.” Enhanced coverage of the operation of state speedy trial statutes in high-volume courts. Fresh evaluation of historical trends and current practices in plea bargaining. Coverage of recent rulings of the U.S. Supreme Court on jury selection and unanimous jury verdicts. Professors and students will benefit from: Materials that support class discussion, including criminal justice actors beyond the nine Justices of the U.S. Supreme Court: the vision is “street-level federalism.” Materials that give students a nuanced portrait of current practices in criminal justice rather than a rushed historical narrative about doctrinal trends. Supporting website that offers exemplar documents, recent news with relevance for criminal procedure, and brief video lectures to introduce each major unit. Emphasis on high-volume practical issues in criminal procedure instead of intricate but rarely-encountered questions. Intuitive organization – tracking the typical order of events in criminal court – that makes it easy to see connections among different areas of the law.
