Book
Paperback. Condition: Very Good. The First World War was the largest and deadliest war the world had ever seen. A century on, it can be difficult to understand the enormity of the conflict which tore Europe apart. This compelling book tells the story of the First World War through Scotland's people and places. It explores the buildings where, one hundred years ago, men and women enlisted, where they trained, where they stood up for their rights, and where they defended their country against the enemy. It also looks at the places where major industries emerged to supply the war effort, where men recovered from their wounds before returning to the front, and where some of them were finally laid to rest. Illustrated with forgotten and previously unpublished wartime plans, historical imagery and specially-commissioned modern photography, this book is one of the first to focus on Scotland's home front as a whole - from coast and air defences to hospitals and prisoner of war camps. Using new research, the book covers the well-known sites of Scapa Flow and the Forth Defences, but also highlights some of the lesser known aspects, including inland defences and the Edinburgh invasion plans. There are no longer any living men or women who played a part in the First World War, and there are very few people remaining who were alive at the time who remember the conflict. It has now passed from personal experience into the pages of history. Yet there is also a physical legacy of the Great War that can still be found in Scotland - often faded by time and slowly being reclaimed by nature. Scotland's First World War uses the remains of our century-old architecture - along with letters, diaries and poems - to tell an untold story of the role our nation played in one of the most devastating conflicts in human history. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged.

Buch. Condition: Neu. This item is printed on demand - it takes 3-4 days longer - Neuware -In 2005, after 20 years of working for an Australian State Government Schools Teaching Service, author Kevin Munro suffered a severe bipolar nervous breakdown. To keep up his literary skills, he began to write.In Netted Rainbows, Munro 'documents' his illness through poems he wrote between 2005 and 2009 in Sydney, Australia. His record is filled with the 'pain' of bipolar disorder, complete with the mania and depression he suffered and overcame.He challenges readers to identify the different stages of his illness through reading his works, and believes they could come away being a 'lay' professional.Although Kevin Munro has written since high school and has had his work published in minor anthologies, this is his first published collection of works. He felt 'the need to produce something worthwhile' as his world tumbled about him. A Sydney native, Munro has a master's degree in education from the University of Canberra, taught special education for 20 years and is now living on a pension. He is truly encouraged by former students: 'I have kept in the back of my mind the students that I have seen rise above situations much worse than mine!' 134 pp. Englisch.
