POW on the Sumatra Railway
by Christine BridgesJohn Geoffrey Lee (always known as Geoff) joined the RAF on his 20th birthday in June 1941. He left Liverpool on a troop ship in December 1941, with no idea where he was going. He eventually arrived in Java, where he was captured by the Japanese, along with many others. During his time in captivity, he survived several camps in Java, Ambon and Singapore and three hell ship journeys. After being washed ashore in Sumatra, (as a ferry he was being transported on blew up), he was then recaptured and suffered sheer hell as a slave on the Sumatra Railway. Enduring bouts of malaria, beri beri, tropical ulcers and a starvation diet was bad enough, but this was exacerbated by the searing heat and extreme cruelty meted out to the prisoners by the Japanese and Korean guards. Geoff miraculously survived, weighing just 6 stone when he arrived back in Liverpool in December 1945. After his release he found he had difficulty in convincing people where he had been as no one had heard of the “Sumatra Railway”, only the other one, thousands of miles away in Burma. Letters to newspapers were returned as ‘Just another Burma Railway story’. The Ministry of Defence, Commonwealth War Graves Commission, and The Imperial War Museum had no records of POW’s building a railway in Sumatra. So began Geoff’s journey, his aim… to prove to the establishment what he already knew to be true. This is Geoff's story of his captivity, release, and subsequent efforts in achieving his aim.
PR: Fifty Years in the Field
by Jack DonoghueIn PR: Fifty Years in the Field, Jack Donoghue brings together the results of a lifetime in public relations — in the military, public, and private sectors. Each chapter focuses on a different public relations problem, so that the collection as a whole reflects the full spectrum of challenges that PR officers face. The book documents the strategies applied to and the lessons learned from public relations exercises involving such divergent events as the Hong Kong Courts Martial, the Manitoba flood of 1950, the Manitoba polio epidemic of 1953, and the National Energy Program. It also describes the PR problems presented by the Alberta nurses’ strike of 1977 and the fiasco of Information Canada. Jack Donoghue’s memoirs provide a different and instructive view on significant events in Canada’s history.
PSICODELIA SUBURBANA - David Bowie e o Beckenham Arts Lab
by Alessandra Lobo Mary FinniganEste livro não é sobre as músicas do David Bowie. Existem vários livros já escritos sobre isso. É um livro sobre uma fatia única da história, sobre quando os jovens ao Sul de Londres se uniram para uma experiência mágica cujo auge se deu na tarde de 16 de agosto. Posso escrever uma prosa razoável, mas não sou nenhuma poeta genial ou musicista. David Bowie era desde calibre. As palavras em sua canção "Memory of a Free Festival" e a melodia que segue com ela reflete bem melhor toda a atmosfera daquele dia do que qualquer tentativa que eu faça.
PT 109: An American Epic of War, Survival, and the Destiny of John F. Kennedy
by William DoyleNew York Times bestselling author William Doyle’s PT 109 is the World War II story of shipwreck and survival that paved John F. Kennedy’s path to power.In the early morning of August 2, 1943, during a nighttime skirmish amid the Solomon Islands, the Japanese destroyer Amagiri barreled through thick fog and struck the U.S. Navy’s motor torpedo boat PT 109, splitting the craft nearly in half and killing two American sailors instantly. The sea erupted in flames as the 109’s skipper, John F. Kennedy, and the ten surviving crewmen desperately clung to the sinking wreckage; 1,200 feet of ink-black, shark-infested water loomed beneath. Informed that all hands were lost, the American base attempted no rescue. What follows is one of the most remarkable tales of World War II, one whose astonishing afterlife would culminate two decades later in the White House.Drawing on original interviews with the last living links to the events, previously untapped Japanese wartime archives, and a wealth of archival documents from the Kennedy Library, including a lost first-hand account by JFK himself, William Doyle has crafted a thrilling and definitive account of the sinking of PT 109 and its shipwrecked crew’s heroics. Equally fascinating is the story’s second act, in which Doyle explores how this extraordinary episode shaped Kennedy’s character and fate, proving instrumental to achieving his presidential ambitions.Featuring castaways on a deserted island, a spy network of Solomon Island natives, an Australian coast watcher hidden on the side of a volcano, an S.O.S. note carved into a coconut, and a daring rescue attempt, PT 109 is an unforgettable American epic of war and destiny.

Pabay: An Island Odyssey
by Christopher Whatley&“An island history almost without comparison . . . one of the finest Highland books of the 21st century&” from the renowned Scottish historian (West Highland Free Press). The tiny diamond-shaped island of Pabay lies in Skye&’s Inner Sound, just two and a half miles from the bustling village of Broadford. One of five Hebridean islands of that name, it derives from the Norse papa-ey, meaning &“island of the priest.&” Many visitors since the first holy men built their chapel there have felt that Pabay is a deeply spiritual place, and one of wonder. These include the great 19th-century geologists Hugh Miller and Archibald Geikie, for whom the island&’s rocks and fossil-laden shales revealed much about the nature of Creation itself. Len and Margaret Whatley moved to Pabay from the Midlands and lived there from 1950 until 1970. Leaving a landlocked life in Birmingham for the emptiness of an uninhabited island was a brave and challenging move for which nothing could have prepared them. Christopher Whatley, their nephew, was a regular visitor to Pabay whilst they lived there. In this book, based on archival research, oral interviews, memory and personal experience, he explores the history of this tiny island jewel, and the people for whom it has been home, to create a vivid picture of the trials, tribulations and joys of island life.&“If the island itself is a diamond, this work is a sparkling gem.&” —The Press and Journal&“Beautifully written, and presents a richly detailed and fascinating historical narrative . . . It&’s as much a testimony to how people have shaped the island and how the island has shaped them.&” —Dundee Courier

Roosevelt.Abeita dealt with many issues that are still relevant today, including reform of US Indian policy, boarding schools, and Pueblo sovereignty.
