	Cross-Border Warriors : Canadians in American Forces, American in Canadian Forces From the Civil War to the Gulf This book describes a long overlooked aspect of Canada's past: the fact that Canadians and Americans have served in one another's military forces from the Civil War to the Gulf War. "Canadian military historian Fred Gaffen's book *Cross Border Warriors* attempts to fill in the gaps in Canadian and American military history. He shares detailed anecdotes of the Americans who fought in the Royal Canadian Forces and the Canadians who fought for the American military, while grounding their stories deep in a macro-historical analysis of the conflicts and cooperation between the two nations. He recognizes both the strong anti-American sentiment in Canada and the occasional fear of Americans that Canada was about to attack the U.S. Ultimately, he wants to tell the stories of the 60,000 American and Canadian citizens who served in each other's armed forces since 1812." - Amazon review	Fred Gaffen 9781550022254 75 Illustrations 155x230mm, paperback 240 pages Dundurn Group £9.99
	Desert Battles : From Napoleon to the Gulf War Desert Battles is a study of the nature of desert warfare with special attention to the evolution of weaponry, the organisation of forces, the impact of the desert environment on the ability of those forces to sustain battle, and the influences of the desert on battle tactics. After an examination of deserts as a physical context for battle, Watson focuses on seven campaigns: Napoleon's expedition to Egypt in 1798-99; the British campaign along India's north-west frontier from 1849 to 1852; the Iraq campaign during World War I; the British counterattack against the Italians in North Africa in 1940-41; the exploits of Erwin Rommel and his Afrika Korps in North Africa in 1941; the 1973 Yom Kippur War; and the 1991 Gulf War.

	The Encyclopedia of African American Military History Although African American soldiers and sailors have fought in every U.S. war from the War of Independence to the War on Terrorism, their contributions are rarely and, at best, erratically recorded in encyclopedias of American military history. Most Americans would be hard-pressed to name even a few of the many heroic black servicemen, who have distinguished themselves in the annals of military history. While a public figure like Colin Fowell is well known, and many people are now aware of the black regiment depicted in the movie GLORY, few have heard of David Lamson, When he was close to sixty years old, this African American captain of a small local militia successfully routed British reinforcements near concord at the beginning of the Revolutionary War. Even fewer know about the "buffalo soldiers" (as African American cavalry units were once called) who rescued Teddy Roosevelt and his Rough Riders in the famous battle of San Juan Hill during the Spanish American War. This book is teeming with essential information that has been overlooked in other references William Weir's *Encyclopedia of African American Military History* is designed to provide long overdue recognition to the outstanding accomplishments of hundreds of African American servicemen. Thoroughly researched and historically accurate, with numerous illustrations, this comprehensive and substantive reference work is written to be accessible, engaging, and informative for all readers.

	Establishing a Legacy : The History of the Royal Canadian Regiment 1883-1953 Regimental histories are a virtual window to a nation. They provide insight into a country's culture, values, and martial spirit. But more specifically they tell the story of the men and women who fight their nation's wars. Created as an infantry school corps to train the Militia, the Royal Canadian Regiment quickly grew to serve the national interest at home and abroad. From its first operational mission in Canada's rugged Northwest to assist in quelling the Riel Rebellion to the harsh veldt of South Africa to help defeat the Boers, Canada's oldest permanent force infantry regiment produced a legacy of courage and professionalism. This proud history was continued in the furnace of both world wars in Europe and shortly thereafter in Korea. It becomes evident that in its first 70 turbulent years of existence, the Royal Canadian Regiment established a heritage of honour and service to Canada, paid for in the blood, bravery, and tenacity of its members.

Married at the age of 22 to a dashing young jet pilot, young bride Gilberta Guth embarked on what was for many years a global journey, following her husband all over the world as he pursued his career. From their honeymoon in Las Vegas to an Ichibon sayonara and a St. Gobain au revoir to his final assignment in civilian life, she stood by his side and raised their four children. In the process she learned to cope with the tragic death of young pilots and how the other wives and family members comforted the widows and helped them pack up their children and leave the familial embrace of the military. Reproductions of letters, photos, and newspaper clippings further enrich this moving account of the challenges faced by a military family in both wartime and peacetime.

	Finnish Army 1881-1901 : Training the Rifle Battalions Between 1881 and 1901 Finland raised a small army that was uniquely separate from the armed forces of the Russian Empire to which Finland belonged as an autonomous grand duchy. This "old" Finnish army has been neglected by military historians because it has been overshadowed by the importance of the army of independent Finland. This book attempts to redress the balance. Although its focus is on the training of rifle battalions that constituted the bulk of the Finnish army of 1881-1901, it ranges widely over the character and purpose of the army as a whole. The book also provides information about the Russian army's training regime which formed the context of the Finnish army's work. As a competent and patriotic military force, the "old army" is shown to be as worthy of regard as the Finnish armies raised at other times.

	Finnish 'Old Army' in Old Photographs The 'old' Finnish army from the period 1881-1901 became an important symbol of Finnish national identity, whose abolition by the Russians caused extensive protests. The army's existence coincided with the extensive use of photography to record people and events and the officers and man of the army were much photographed. This book provides a selection of photographs which show the army both on and off duty - in barracks, on parade, during training and in moments of leisure. It helps to restore the often-forgotten 'old army' to its rightful place as a part of Finland's military heritage. The Finnish 'Old Army'; The Rifle Battalions; The Finnish Dragoon Regiment; The Reserve; The Finnish Cadet Corps; Senior Officers and Administration; Shooting; Training Out of Barracks; Uniforms, Equipment, Weapons and Transport; Social Activities and Recreation; Parades and Ceremonial.

	General Douglas a Macarthur CD A symbol of American determination and fighting ability, General Douglas A MacArthur ranks as an imaginative, sometimes brilliant military commander.

	George C Marshall : Rubrics of Leadership There have been more biographies of George C Marshall than any other Army Chief of Staff or Secretary of Defence and almost any Secretary of State - Jefferson being the most obvious exception. This is not another one. This is a practitioner's examination of a single characteristic leadership. Stewart Husted recognises that for Marshall LEADERSHIP was a verb, not a noun, and this book conjugates it. It is a Leadership book bereft of most academic jargon - no collaborative synergisms, no Type A, B or even C, no Theory X or Y, nothing approaching charismatic, not even a paradigm, shifting or not shifting. The Marshall Library, Bland's PAPERS, Pogue's MARSHALL, and nearly 100 other sources have been carefully plumbed to extract and glean Marshall Leading, Marshall talking about Leading, and Marshall teaching Leadership. These Rubrics are not a recipe, but are designed to guide the aspiring and explain the successful.	Stewart Husted 9780970968234 20 b/w photos 145x215mm 264 pages Stackpole Books £14.99 hb

	Guardians of the Republic : A History of the Non-Commissioned Officer Corps of the U.S. Army This is the definitive work on one of the least studied aspects of military history - the non-commissioned officer. Since colonial America, NCOs have played pivotal roles in the administration, training, morale, and fighting effectiveness of the Army. The author traces the evolution of NCO duties; their rank and insignia; relationship to officers; their training (or non-training); and the professional development scheme initiated after the Vietnam experience which produced the finest non-commissioned officer corps in the world.
