The Red Glutton With the German Army at the Front【電子書籍】[ Irvin S. Cobb ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In this work, Cobb provides a vivid and often stark account of life at the frontlines with the German army. The title refers to the war's destructive nature, symbolized by the "red glutton" of war, devouring both soldiers and civilians alike.The book blends firsthand observations with narrative commentary, offering a unique perspective on the horrors of the battlefield, the brutality of war, and the psychological toll it takes on soldiers. Cobb’s writing conveys the shock and disillusionment experienced by those caught in the conflict, portraying the grim realities of trench warfare and the devastating human cost of the war.Although written from the perspective of a foreign correspondent embedded with the German forces, The Red Glutton is not a glorification of war. Instead, it is a candid reflection on the madness of conflict, the moral ambiguity of war, and the suffering endured by both combatants and non-combatants. Cobb’s blend of dark humor and somber reflection makes the book an impactful and thought-provoking account of World War I.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Cromwell and Centaur Tanks British Army and Royal Marines, North-west Europe, 1944?1945【電子書籍】[ Dennis Oliver ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>"A</strong> <strong>n excellent resource for one just starting out trying to model one of these beasts . . . great background information." ーAMPS</strong></p> <p>Designed with the hard lessons of the North African campaign in mind, including the adoption of a dual-purpose gun capable of firing high-explosive and anti-tank rounds, the Cromwell was one of the most successful of the British cruiser tanks produced during the Second World War. The lack of heavy armor was made up for by the tank's high speed, provided by a Rolls-Royce Meteor engine. The Centaur was externally almost identical to the Cromwell, the major difference being the installation of the less powerful Liberty engine.</p> <p>While the Centaur equipped the Royal Marines during the Normandy battles, the Cromwell served until the end of the war and formed the basis for the Comet. In his fifth book in the TankCraft series, author and illustrator Dennis Oliver uses official wartime photographs and comprehensively researched, exquisitely presented color profiles to tell the story of the penultimate British cruiser tank. As with all the titles in the TankCraft series, the large full-color section features available model kits and accessories as well as aftermarket products.</p> <p>In addition to the color profiles, there is a gallery of expertly constructed and painted models. A separate section explains technical details and modifications made during production and in the field, giving the modeler all the information required to create an authentic replica of one of the tanks that served from the Normandy beaches to the final battles in Germany.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Stug III & Stug IV German Army, Waffen-SS and Luftwaffe: Western Front, 1944?1945【電子書籍】[ Dennis Oliver ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>A guide that blends the history behind this German World War II tank with resources for military vehicle modeling enthusiasts.</strong></p> <p>In the last years of the Second World War the Sturmgesch?tz III (StuG III) and Sturmgesch?tz IV (StuG IV) played a vital role as assault guns during the German army's struggle to block the Allied advance on the Western Front. As the Wehrmacht's tank forces declined, these armored vehicles were thrown into every defensive operation. They are not as well-known as the Tigers and Panthers, but German resistance would have been much weaker without them. They were also among the most frequently encountered German armored vehicles on the battlefields, which is why they are such a fascinating subject for Dennis Oliver in this volume in the <em>TankCraft</em> series</p> <p>He uses archive photos and extensively researched color illustrations to examine the StuG III and StuG IV deployed by the German army and the Waffen-SS during these doomed campaigns. A key section of his book displays available model kits and aftermarket products, complemented by a gallery of beautifully constructed and painted models in various scales. Technical details as well as modifications introduced during production and in the field are also examined providing everything the modeler needs to recreate an accurate representation of these historic armored vehicles.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Effectiveness of Army Music in Accomplishing the Army Public Affairs Mission: Survey of Neuroscience Literature, Review of Audience Member Emotional Comments About Joy, Pride and Patriotism【電子書籍】[ Progressive Management ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>This excellent report has been professionally converted for accurate flowing-text e-book format reproduction.</p> <p>Army music units have historically conducted community engagement missions on behalf of Army Public Affairs to engender trust and confidence in the U.S. Army among U.S. citizens. Measuring the effectiveness of Army music in achieving that goal has, however, proven elusive. This study first shows through a survey of the existing neuroscientific literature dealing with the human brain's processing of music that music is the ideal medium for communicating these messages to the public. The study then offers a new model for a measure of effectiveness of Army music by examining a four-year collection of e-mail comments from audience members at The U.S. Army Field Band performances. Theses e-mails, of which 95 percent indicate positive or overwhelmingly positive reactions to the performances, demonstrate clear and powerful emotional reactions such as joy, pride, and patriotism. These emotional responses further show a link to the Army and to the Public Affairs mission of engendering trust and confidence in the U.S Army.</p> <p>CHAPTER 1 INTRODUCTION * Army Bands * CHAPTER 2 LITERATURE REVIEW * Public Affairs * Emotions * Music as a Communications Medium * CHAPTER 3 METHODOLOGY * Limitations and Delimitations * CHAPTER 4 ANALYSIS * CHAPTER 5 CONCLUSIONS * Recommendations for Further Study * Recommendations for the Army Music Field * APPENDIX A SELECTED E-MAILS * BIBLIOGRAPHY</p> <p>Recognizing the human element's effect on war, as posited by Clausewitz, in addition to realizing the impact of the ever-increasing flow of information brought about by rapid advancements in technology, the Army has placed growing emphasis on information operations (IO). The Army recognizes it must maintain a presence in the information domain to ensure that it has a voice in the broader public discourse throughout the range of military operations. An essential component of IO is public affairs (PA) activity, which fulfills the Army's obligation to "communicate with the American public." This communication requires honesty, forthrightness, and accuracy to ensure the continued trust of the American people. Field Manual (FM) 3-61, Public Affairs, includes community engagement activities within its definition of PA activities and acknowledges that they "help to establish conditions that lead to confidence in the Army and its readiness to conduct unified land operations." The Army requires the trust and confidence of the American people to remain relevant and effective; and while these things may begin as intellectual processes, they ultimately reside in the realm of emotions.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Songs of the Army of the Night【電子書籍】[ Francis Adams ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>In "Songs of the Army of the Night," Francis Adams presents a poignant collection of verse that captures the tumult and emotional landscape of war. Written during a time of societal upheaval, Adams employs a lyrical style characterized by vivid imagery and rhythmic cadence, drawing the reader into the somber realities of military life and the haunting toll it exacts on the human spirit. The poems reflect both personal and collective experiences, merging romanticism with stark realism, and positioning Adams within the broader literary context of 19th-century war poetry, which often grappled with themes of heroism, suffering, and existential reflection. Francis Adams, a Scottish poet and physician, was deeply influenced by his experiences and observations of the human condition. Born in 1823, Adams's background in medicine and literature provided him with a unique lens through which to view the ravages of war and its impact on soldiers and society. His own feelings of displacement and critique of contemporary governance are echoed throughout his works, making "Songs of the Army of the Night" not only a reflection of his time but also a personal exploration of his ideals and convictions. This collection is highly recommended for those who seek to understand the emotional depths of warfare through poetic expression. Adams's work resonates with timeless truths, making it essential reading for scholars and poetry enthusiasts alike, offering insights that transcend its era and fostering empathy towards the often-overlooked narratives of war.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Army Film and the Avant Garde Cinema and Experiment in the Czechoslovak Military【電子書籍】[ Alice Lovejoy ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>A history of the Czechoslovakian military's connection to some of the nation's most innovative and subversive cinema.</strong><br /> During the 1968 Prague Spring and the Soviet-led invasion and occupation that followed, Czechoslovakia's Army Film studio was responsible for some of the most politically subversive and aesthetically innovative films of the period. Although the studio is remembered primarily as a producer of propaganda and training films, some notable New Wave directors began their careers there, making films that considerably enrich the history of that movement. Alice Lovejoy examines the institutional and governmental roots of postwar Czechoslovak cinema and provides evidence that links the Army Film studio to Czechoslovakia's art cinema. By tracing the studio's unique institutional dimensions and production culture, Lovejoy explores the ways in which the "military avant-garde" engaged in dialogue with a range of global film practices and cultures.<br /> (The print version of the book includes a DVD featuring sixteenth short films produced by the Czechoslovak Ministry of Defense. The additional media files are not available on the eBook.)<br /> <strong>"Alice Lovejoy's revelatory study of the cinema culture wrought by the Czechoslovak Army Film studio is a cause for celebration among both cinephiles and media scholars. . . . Lovejoy's curatorial enterprise brings these fascinating films to us for fresh examination. Seeing these artful army films nearly half a century later opens our eyes to work that requires us to reassess what we thought we knew about documentary, new waves, and world cinema itself." ーDan Streible, New York University</strong><br /> <strong>"Lovejoy restores these sometimes funny, sometimes poignant and always innovative films to their proper place in film history, while explaining the unique cultural politics that allowed them to blossom beneath the noses of the Stalinist government." ーTom Gunning, University of Chicago</strong><br /> <strong>"Filled with surprises for readers who thought they knew their Czech film history, this insightful book refutes many received ideas about Eastern European cultural politics during the Cold War and sketches a complex and nuanced relationship between artists and the socialist state." ーRick Prelinger, UC Santa Cruz</strong></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>This unique eBook edition of H. C. McNeile's complete works has been formatted to the highest digital standards and adjusted for readability on all devices. Herman Cyril McNeile (1888-1937) commonly known as H. C. McNeile or Sapper, was a British soldier and author. Drawing on his experiences in the trenches during the First World War, he started writing short stories and getting them published in the Daily Mail. After the war McNeile left the army and continued writing, although he changed from war stories to thrillers. In 1920 he published Bulldog Drummond, whose eponymous hero became his best-known creation. The character was based on McNeile himself, on his friend Gerard Fairlie and on English gentlemen generally. His stories are either directly about the war, or contain people whose lives have been shaped by it. His thrillers are a continuation of his war stories, with upper class Englishmen defending England from foreigners plotting against it. Contents: Novels: Mufti Bulldog Drummond The Black Gang Jim Maitland The Third Round The Final Count The Female of the Species Temple Tower Tiny Carteret The Island of Terror The Return of Bulldog Drummond Knock-Out Bulldog Drummond at Bay Challenge Short Story Collections: The Lieutenant and Others Sergeant Michael Cassidy, R.E.

Shep's Army Bummers, Blisters and Boondoggles【電子書籍】[ Jean Shepherd ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Disclaimer: No U.S. Military Personnel were harmed during the making of these fictional reminiscences. No warrior is more forgotten than he who has been left behind by the war department. Most men who have never tasted combat beyond the occasional fistfight on poker night quickly learn to lay low and zip the lip when battlefield stories are unfurled by the Purple Hearters at the dinner table. Except, of course, for our man Jean Shepherd. Fearless in his uncombativeness, he manfully fought his dearth of frontline duty with the weapons he wielded unmatched by even the most decorated dogface: rapid-fire griping and explosive laughter.</p> <p>Jean Shepherd was, and remains, a pervasive part of American culture. His quirky individuality was portrayed for posterity by Jason Robards in the play and film, <em>A Thousand Clowns</em>, written by Shep's close pal, Herb Gardner. Jack Nicholson embodied a Shepherd-like late-night radio talker in <em>The King of Marvin Gardens</em>. While in <em>Network</em>, by Paddy Chayefsky (another of Shep's comic cohorts), the television newscaster beseeches his listeners to open their windows and yell, “I'm mad as hell, and I'm not going to take this anymore ” an unmistakable echo of Shepherd's radio habit of “hurling an invective” like a hand grenade out into the nation's air waves. Shepherd was a spiritual father to Garrison Keillor, Daniel Pinkwater, Bill Harley, Paul Krassner and Joe Frank.</p> <p>Tens of thousands of rabid fans stayed up past their bedtime with transistor radios stashed under their pillows to follow Shep's always unpredictable, usually extemporaneous, verbal forays into current events, social mores, idle thoughts, stories about his childhood in northern Indiana (“I was this kid, see...”), his army days, and his idiosyncratic take on his world-wide travels. Shepherd once bamboozled an innocent public, and gullible publishing world, by promoting a non-existent book (<em>I, Libertine</em>) and author (Frederick R. Ewing), then co-writing it with sci-fi author Theodore Sturgeon. It sold in best-seller numbers. Shepherd wrote nearly two dozen stories for <em>Playboy</em> and even interviewed the Beatles for the magazine. He published several best-selling books of his stories and articles; he appeared at Carnegie Hall, Town Hall, and in hundreds of jam-packed college auditoriums.</p> <p><em>Shep's Army</em> is the first volume of new Shepherd tales to be published in a quarter century.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Dads Army Short Stories【電子書籍】[ Bernard Wilds ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Life in the Seaside resort of Walmington-on-Sea on the South Coast of England in the 1940s during the Second World War as seen through the exploits of a band of men who got together to form the Walmington-on-Sea Home Guard in response to a plea from Secretary of State for War Anthony Eden.<br /> Like many reading this book, you will have a memory of the TV Series Dads Army with the fantastic characters, such as Arthur Lowe playing the ever so proud but pompous Captain Mainwaring. Desperately trying to withhold the might of the German Army from the Novelty Rock Emporium to the pier head in the seaside town of Walmington-On-Sea. Alongside him, the endearing Sergeant Wilson superbly played by the great John Le Mesurier. Lance Corporal Jones played by Clive Dunn. His enthusiasm for combat and his ‘they don't like it up 'em', a catchphrase we all remember. Memories of John Laurie's portrayal of the Local Undertaker Jock Frazer, a miserly old Scrooge type character, a storyteller that kept you engrossed, befitting the Shakespearian actor he was.<br /> Who can forget James Beck playing the role of the Spiv Character Joe Walker, who as a tribute to him, his character is kept alive in these short stories although sadly James Beck passed away during the making of the TV series.<br /> Arnold Ridley playing Private Godfrey as the amiable, vague, lifelong bachelor who lives with his sisters in an idyllic cottage. He played the part so well that you found yourself wishing he was your grandfather! Then, without doubt, the catalyst for many situations Ian Lavender playing the role of Frank Pike the youngest member of the platoon. Supplemented by characters such as the ARP Warden played by Bill Pertwee and the Vicar Reverend Timothy Farthing, Frank Williams and his right arm the Verger Roy Yeatman played by Edward Sinclair and not forgetting Mavis Pike played by Janet Davies playing the overprotective Mother of Frank and Landlady or Girlfriend of Sergeant Wilson (We never do find out if he is really the Father of Frank) All these characters and more make up the never to be forgotten and wonderfully written by Jimmy Perry and David Croft ‘Dads Army'. Because of all of this I pay tribute to the Dads Army team, by carrying on in their tradition different stories, different situations but the same gregarious characters I give you a sequence of imaginable new stories. Please enjoy, get your Dads Army hat on and put yourself into a World of funniness' Thank you… Bernard Wilds</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>In "Songs of the Army of the Night," Francis William Lauderdale Adams crafts a poignant collection of poems that reflect the tumultuous spirit of early 20th-century conflict and social upheaval. Drawing from his experiences as a soldier and a vocal critic of imperialism, Adams employs a striking blend of imagery and rhythm, reminiscent of the Romantic poets, to evoke the visceral emotions of war. The literary context of this work is steeped in the currents of modernism and anti-war sentiments, capturing the disillusionment of a generation caught in the ravages of global conflict, while simultaneously celebrating the resilience of the human spirit through metaphor and lyricism. Francis William Lauderdale Adams, a Scottish poet and journalist, was deeply influenced by his own experiences during the First World War, which instilled within him a profound empathy for the common soldier. His active participation in literary circles and his commitment to social justice often placed him at the forefront of discourse surrounding the consequences of war and colonialism. This unique background informed his artistic sensibility, allowing him to channel both personal and collective suffering into rich, evocative verse. "Songs of the Army of the Night" is not merely a collection of poetry; it is a vital historical document that resonates with contemporary readers in times of conflict. For anyone seeking to understand the emotional and psychological dimensions of war, Adams's work offers a raw and unfiltered glimpse into the human experience. This book is a compelling read for both poetry enthusiasts and historians alike, illuminating the enduring impact of war on society and the individual's soul.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

The Instruments of Battle The Fighting Drummers and Buglers of the British Army from the Late 17th Century to the Present Day【電子書籍】[ James Tanner ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p><strong>"The hitherto forgotten story of the development of the regimental band, mainly drummers and buglers. A rare piece of social history" ( <em>Books Monthly</em>).</strong><br /> <em>The Instruments of Battle</em> examines in detail the development and role of the British Army's fighting drummers and buglers, from the time of the foundation of the army up to the present day. While their principal weapon of war was the drum and bugleーand the fifeーthese men and boys were not musicians as such, but fighting soldiers who took their place in the front line.<br /> The origins of the drum and bugle in the classical period and the later influence of Islamic armies are examined, leading to the arrival of the drum and fife in early Tudor England. The story proper picks up post-English Civil War. The drum's period of supremacy through much of the eighteenth-century army is surveyed, and certain myths as to its use are dispelled. The bugle rapidly superseded the drum for field use in the nineteenth centuryーuntil developments on the battlefield consigned these instruments largely to barrack life and the parade ground. But there are surprising examples of the use of the bugle in the field through both world wars as the story is brought up to modern day and the instruments' relegation to an almost exclusively ceremonial role.<br /> This is all set against a background of campaigns, battles, changing tactical methods, and the difficult processes of command and control on the battlefield. Interwoven is relevant comparison with other armies, particularly American and French. Stories of the drummers and buglers themselves provide social context to their place in the army.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Sound the Trumpet, Beat the Drums Horse-Mounted Bands of the U.S. Army, 1820?1940【電子書籍】[ Bruce P. Gleason, Ph.D ]
楽天Kobo電子書籍ストア
|
<p>Stemming from the tradition of rallying troops and frightening enemies, mounted bands played a unique and distinctive role in American military history. Their fascinating story within the U.S. Army unfolds in this latest book from noted music historian and former army musician Bruce P. Gleason.</p> <p><em>Sound the Trumpet, Beat the Drums</em> follows American horse-mounted bands from the nation's military infancy through its emergence as a world power during World War II and the corresponding shift from horse-powered to mechanized cavalry. Gleason traces these bands to their origins, including the horn-blowing Celtic and Roman cavalries of antiquity and the mounted Middle Eastern musicians whom European Crusaders encountered in the Holy Land. He describes the performance, musical selections, composition, and duties of American mounted bands that have served regular, militia, volunteer, and National Guard regiments in military and civil parades and concerts, in ceremonies, and on the battlefield. Over time the composition of the bands has changedーbeginning with trumpets and drums and expanding to full-fledged concert bands on horseback. Woven throughout the book are often-surprising strands of American military history from the War of 1812 through the Civil War, action on the western frontier, and the two world wars.</p> <p>Touching on anthropology, musicology, and the history of the United States and its military, <em>Sound the Trumpet, Beat the Drums</em> is an unparalleled account of mounted military bands and their cultural significance.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
