For Honor and Union: Based on the Civil War diary of Sergeant Arthur P. McCullough, Company "D", 81st Illinois Volunteer Infantry at Port G
Follow Civil War Union Army Sergeant, Arthur P. McCullough, of Company "D", 81st Illinois Volunteer Infantry Regiment. Embark upon dozens of river steamboats plying the Mississippi, Ohio, Tennessee, Cumberland, Red and White Rivers in search of the rebel armies. Fight alongside the boys in blue at the battles of Port Gibson, Raymond, Jackson, Champion Hill, Big Black River Bridge, Vicksburg, Red River, Brice's Crossroads, and Nashville. Revel at the Mardi Gras in old New Orleans. Sail across the Gulf of Mexico and into Mobile Bay. Drive the rebels out of Spanish Fort and Fort Blakely then capture the city of Mobile. Complete the circle by occupying Montgomery, the first capitol of the Confederate States of America. Here is a never before published history showing the bravery, perseverance and strength of a frontline Union Infantry soldier fighting in the western theater of the Civil War. Based on a recently discovered diary written by his great-grand-uncle, the author adds text, maps and illustrations to position the reader at the camp sites and on the battle lines. Then the diarist takes over to transport us back in time to the daily life of a Union soldier fighting to preserve the United States of America. This diary is a primary history source written by Sergeant McCullough over a three year period from 1862 until 1865. His final entry was made three days before he died. This is not a memoir written years after the war. This is as it happened.
P-39 Airacobra Aces of World War 2

P-39 Airacobra Aces of World War 2

The first American fighter fitted with a tricyle undercarriage and mid-mounted engine, the P-39 proved less than successful in the hands of its launch customer, the US Army Air Force (AAF). Hampered by unreliabilty and poor engine performance at high altitude, the P-39 nevertheless served alongside the P-40 and P-38 in the bitter struggle to capture Guadalcanal in 1942/43, as well as seeing much action over the jungles of New Guinea. Around a dozen AAF aces scored five kills with the P-39, although this total was far outstripped by the Soviet Red Air Force, whose pilots rated the Airacobra as one of the best lend-lease fighters of the war.

C. P. Cavafy (1863-1933) lived in relative obscurity in Alexandria, and a collected edition of his poems was not published until after his death. Now, however, he is regarded as the most important figure in twentieth-century Greek poetry, and his poems are considered among the most powerful in modern European literature. Here is an extensively revised edition of the acclaimed translations of Edmund Keeley and Philip Sherrard, which capture Cavafy's mixture of formal and idiomatic use of language and preserve the immediacy of his frank treatment of homosexual themes, his brilliant re-creation of history, and his astute political ironies. The resetting of the entire edition has permitted the translators to review each poem and to make alterations where appropriate. George Savidis has revised the notes according to his latest edition of the Greek text. About the first edition: "The best [English version] we are likely to see for some time."--James Merrill, The New York Review of Books "[Keeley and Sherrard] have managed the miracle of capturing this elusive, inimitable, unforgettable voice. It is the most haunting voice I know in modern poetry."--Walter Kaiser, The New Republic
