Boscobel; Or, the Royal Oak

All happened precisely as Charles had foreseen. Not another shot was fired by the Republicans. The Royalists encamped quietly on the hill. But though no apprehensions were entertained of an attack, those within Fort Royal were kept on the alert throughout the night.

Commanding Generals and Chiefs of Staff, 1775-2005

Portraits & Biographical Sketches of the United States Army's Senior Officer

By: William Gardner Bell

From the Foreword: This volume provides short biographical sketches of the commanding generals and chiefs of staff who have led the United States Army. Their rise through the levels of leadership to the pinnacle of their profession reveals both striking parallels and equally fascinating contrasts. While their responsibilities have evolved over the years, the essential elements of leadership remain unchanged. The format of this volume combines biographical information along with the officially designated portraits of the commanding generals and chiefs of staff. It also includes brief accounts of the artists selected to paint the official portraits. As an aspect of the Army art program, these portraits add an interesting and revealing dimension to the biographer's words. This volume not only celebrates the legacy of dedication and patriotism left by these leaders, but also enhances our understanding of military leadership at the highest levels. All those interested in the profession of arms should become familiar with those who have led our Army.

Drawings from the Age of Bruegel, Rubens, and Rembrandt

Highlights from the Collection of the Harvard Art Museums

By: William W. Robinson

This superb book presents 100 notable examples from the Harvard Art Museums’ distinguished collection of Dutch, Flemish, and Netherlandish drawings from the 16th to 18th century. Featuring such masters as Pieter Bruegel the Elder, Peter Paul Rubens, and Rembrandt van Rijn, the volume showcases beautiful color illustrations accompanied by insightful commentary on prevalent styles and techniques. Genres that define this artistic period—landscape, scenes of everyday life, portraiture, and still life—are explored in detail. The book also presents the results of new conservation and technical study, including infrared analysis and scientific examinations of drawing materials. This revelatory new research has allowed previously illegible underdrawings and inscriptions in many of the artworks to surface for the first time, shedding light on longstanding mysteries of production and provenance.

Ecology Of Fungi

Ecology Of Fungi

By: William Bridge Cooke

Originally published in 1979. A review of the broad subject of the ecology of fungi. Fungi, are progressive, ever changing and evolving rapidly in their own way, so that they are capable of becoming adapted to every condition of life. We may rest assured that as green plants and animals disappear one by one from the face of the earth, some of the fungi will always be present to dispose of the last remains. Ecology has been defined by Daubenmire as the study of the reciprocal relations between organisms and their environment. Fungi are heterotrophic organisms which cannot manufacture their basic food requirements and so are dependent on food materials produced by other organisms either as saprobes or parasites.

America's Fighting Admirals

Winning the War at Sea in World War II

By: William Tuohy

American naval actions of World War II comprise the most widespread, complex, and dramatic battles in the history of sea warfare. The fighting took place over vast distances in the Atlantic and Pacific oceans, as well as in the constricted spaces of the Mediterranean and Solomon seas. Each of the major actions had an admiral, the commander in charge, who led the battle. In combat, the abilities and determination of these commanders at sea were put to the most severe test. Americas Fighting Admirals describes the course of U.S. sea action in World War II. It examines the skills, strengths, weaknesses and personalities of the American admirals who fought the battles at sea. It examines the effect that stress, tension, and responsibility have on commanders making vital decisions in the red-hot crucible of battle. And it reveals the changing nature of the responsibilities of flag officers as the war progressed and became enormously complex.

Big Moose Lake, New York in Vintage Postcards

By: William L. Scheffer,Frank Carey

From the 1890s through the 1920s, the postcard was an extraordinarily popular means of communication, and many of the postcards produced during this golden age can today be considered works of art. Postcard photographers traveled the length and breadth of the nation snapping photographs of busy street scenes, documenting local landmarks, and assembling crowds of local children only too happy to pose for a picture. These images, printed as postcards and sold in general stores across the country, survive as telling reminders of an important era in Americas history. This fascinating new history of Big Moose Lake, New York, showcases more than two hundred of the best vintage postcards available.

Marshall

Citizen Soldier

Marshall

Citizen Soldier

By: William Frye

If you think of biography as the static record of a man’s achievement, compiled during twenty or more mellowing years, William Frye’s book will have the impact of an electric shock. Marshall: Citizen Soldier is not to be leafed through idly, just as George Catlett Marshall himself cannot be regarded passively. That deceptively mild manner of his, as buck privates, brass hats and not a few politicos have discovered, only indifferently conceals a driving determination, backed by an inner steel core of moral integrity and joined with a lifetime’s habit of command. The general public has not given Marshall the excited, short-lived adulation that it has heaped upon more flamboyantly dramatic military men. But the people recognized in George Marshall the citizen’s soldier to whom they could safely entrust the most vital post in an America at war—Chief of Staff of the United States Army. The acceptance by Marshall early in 1947 of one of the greatest appointive offices in our government, that of Secretary of State, a job today of world significance, leaves no doubt either of the abilities of the man or of his devotion to the public weal. For the dearest wish of the erstwhile Chief of Staff had been a quiet retirement at the end of his Army duties. Marshall began his career in unorthodox fashion by graduating from the V.M.I. instead of West Point. Even on routine tours of duty in the Philippines, in the States and later in China he was singled out by senior officers as a young man of remarkable ability. During World War I, Marshall asked for command duty in France. His superiors rushed him abroad but they realized that Major Marshall was hard-to-get staff officer material, not slated for a regular front-line assignment. William Frye as Marshall’s biographer comes into touch with some of the knottiest questions of the war years. He does not sidestep issues and controversies; he meets them with decision.
