Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Prefaced by brief historical and biographical introductions, the examples in this book show how words can be used to inspire, to comfort, to move, or to enthuse even the most seemingly hard-bitten of listeners. From rallying cries such as Garibaldi's 'To arms, then, all of you!' and Chou En-lai's 'We must hold aloft the great red banner' to sombre statements such as Sheikh Mujibur Rahman's 'This time the struggle is for our freedom', each extract gives us an insight into the hardships of war and the fight for courage. Spanning over two millennia and with speeches from across the globe, We Shall Fight on the Beaches is a book to inspire and inflame the reader. The book has been read, but is in excellent condition. Pages are intact and not marred by notes or highlighting. The spine remains undamaged. …

Hardcover. Zustand: Very good. Zustand des Schutzumschlags: Very good. 448 pages. Illustrated endpapers. Illustrations. Introduction, Notes, Bibliography, Index, and 12 black and white maps. Topics covered include The Threat; The British; The Civilians; The Leaders; Intelligence; Where and How?; The Defences; The Navy; The Army; The Air Force; The Citizen Soldiers; Working Together; The Threat Resolved; Could It Have Happened? This book focuses on the interval between the beginning of war against Napoleon in May 1803 and his withdrawal from Bologna two and a half years later; and the months after the Allied evacuation from Dunkirk up to September 1940. Identifying striking parallels and key differences in these defining periods, the book outlines strategic and political contexts and examines the climate of fear, suspicion and hostility that fermented at all levels of British society as the specter of invasion loomed; whether in 1805 as Napoleon's Grande Armee massed across the channel, or in 1940, as German preparations for Hitler's Operation Sealion began in earnest. The consequences of a successful invasion in either 1805 or 1940 would have been immeasurable, irrevocably altering the lives of millions. This copiously illustrated study of a people at war and their response to such a grave threat admirably evokes the mood of a past Britain. It also examines the decisive factors that meant the invasion plans were never executed, and--using the evidence available--speculates what would have happened had they been carried out. Brian Lavery (born 18 July 1945), is a British naval historian, author, and Curator Emeritus at the National Maritime Museum, Greenwich, London, England. Lavery was born in Scotland and brought up in Dumbarton. Upon graduating, Lavery worked first as a teacher, then in the printing industry, before gradually fulfilling his interest in maritime heritage as an author, consultant, and curator, building a solid reputation as a highly respected authority in the field. He worked at Chatham Historic Dockyard on the Wooden Walls exhibition. During 14 years in the National Maritime Museum at Greenwich he developed the modern collecting policy and worked on numerous exhibitions such as Seapower, All Hands, and several of the galleries in the Neptune Court development. He has lectured regularly on cruise ships, including many trips on the square rigger Sea Cloud, and he undertakes maritime tours in the United Kingdom and Europe. Traditional Boats & Tall Ships refers to him as "one of the world's leading naval historians." He has published over 30 books, covering marine architecture, ship construction (including several in Conway's Anatomy of the Ship series), and naval warfare from its infancy to present day. He is a leading expert in the career of Nelson and the broader Royal Navy. Patrick O'Brian found Nelson's Navy (1989) to be "the most nearly regal that I have come across in many years of reading on the subject." The Times labelled the same book a "masterpiece on life in the Senior Service under England's favourite seafaring son." In addition to editing works such Deane's Doctrine of Naval Architecture 1670, Lavery produces articles which feature regularly in maritime magazines and journals. His naval expertise was also utilised "on the replica constructions of Captain Cook's Endeavour and the emigrant ship Susan Constant", the latter being the subject of his 1988 book. In 2007, Lavery released Churchill Goes to War, which was, according to the Mail on Sunday, "a well-researched and at times deeply inspiring book". In November of the same year, Lady Mountbatten presented Lavery with the Desmond Wettern Maritime Media Award at a ceremony aboard the MV Silver Sturgeon. According to the Maritime Foundation, the award "was made to Mr Lavery as an author, broadcaster, and adviser on major feature films, which have contributed to our understanding of the social structure of Britain's maritime power and all maritime aspects of British national life." The following year, he was awarded the.…
