Guns of the Elite Forces
Guns of the Elite Forces provides a penetrating account of the weapons that elite fighting troops carry into combat. Such elites have always existed in the armies of the world. During World War II, elite units sprang up in most theatres of conflict the German Brandenburgers carried out clandestine operations in Poland; in the Western Desert, the Long Range Desert Group and SAS penetrated deep behind enemy lines; for larger-scale raids the British Commandos and the US Rangers and Marine Raiders were formed.
Shonky
In this compact but highly original publication, artist John Walter identifies a 'shonky' tendency in art that has previously gone under the radar, bringing into focus artworks that are hand-made but not well crafted, that push the boundaries of good taste and orderliness. Walter illustrates his theory with examples of awkward, funny, exuberant art from across the past forty years, ranging from sculpture and performance to painting and architecture. Novelists Zoë Strachan and Louise Welsh broaden this exploration of the shonky into the world of literature in their 'Letter from Monkswood', while in 'The Shonky Factor' Walter assesses a list of artists for their shonkiness levels.
Voices of Snipers
Based on an incredible breadth of first-hand testimony, this is a unique collection of eyewitness accounts from World War I and II. John Walter draws on meticulous research and the reminiscences of more than fifty snipers, tracing their journeys from recruitment and selection through training, combat and its aftermath to reveal a surprising commonality of experience, even across nationalities. Laying bare the triumphs and brutalities of sniping, the personalities and psychologies of those who found themselves doing it and considering the immediate implications on both the sniper and the wider theatre of war, this is a fascinating, detailed insight into frontline combat and the experience of sharpshooting in its historical context. The book is appended with the complete diary of Russian sniper Roza Shanina, who is still celebrated today for her remarkable shooting accuracy and astonishing bravery. Her diary offers a rare insight into the complexities of what it was to be both a sniper and a woman on the frontline.
