G. H. Q. (Montreuil-Sur-Mer) That fantastic life at G.H.Q., so greatly detached from the normal—the life of the men whose words had power to send Armies into and out of action, to give this Division rest and surcease from the agony of the struggle, to assign to that Division the stress of a new effort; the men into whose hands the nation poured millions without stint and at whose call the whole world moved to spin or dig or forge—will it be of interest now to recall some of its memories, to attempt an intimate picture of its routine?

“An excellent piece of work, not just as an account of the Four Days’ Battle itself but also for its account of the entire Second Anglo-Dutch War” (HistoryOfWar.org). On June 1, 1666, a large but outnumbered English fleet engaged the Dutch off the mouth of the Thames in a colossal battle that was to involve nearly 200 ships and last four days. False intelligence had led the English to divide their fleet to meet a phantom threat from France, and although the errant squadron rejoined on the final day of the battle, it was not enough to redress the balance. Like many a defeat, it sparked controversy at the time, and has been the subject of speculation and debate ever since. The battle was an event of such overwhelming complexity that for centuries it defied description and deterred study, but this superbly researched book is now recognized as the definitive account. It provides the first clear exposition of the opposing forces, fills many holes in the narrative and answers most of the questions raised by the actions of the English commanders. It makes for a thoroughly engrossing story, and one worthy of the greatest battle of the age of sail.

The history of the Arnold Palmer Regional airport in Latrobe, Westmoreland Country, Pennsylvania.
"Bulgaria" by Frank Fox Fox was a British journalist and author whose career took him around the world. When instructed in the autumn of 1912 to join the Bulgarian army, then mobilizing for war against Turkey, as a war correspondent for the London Morning Post, Fox was prepared to document all the horrors he would face. However, between sometimes hard-to-read, visceral accounts of war atrocities, Fox also finds room to fit thoughtful commentary and personal perspectives which both critique Bulgarian politics while admiring the innate beauty of the country.
