Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. Cuthbert Collingwood is Northumberland's greatest - and perhaps least known - hero. He was born in Newcastle in 1748, went to sea at the age of 13, and became one of the most important commanders on land or sea in the wars against Napoleon. Though he loved Northumberland he spent just five of the next 48 years at home. He fought in some of the greatest naval engagements of any age and took on the mantle of Commander in Chief of the Mediterranean Fleet after Nelson's death at Trafalgar. He was Nelson's bosom friend and hero; he was a brilliant seaman, gunner and strategist. He held very modern views on education and leadership and hated flogging. He was humane and caring, a devoted family man, and his wit and perspicacity ring out across the generations. Above all, he should be remembered and honoured for sacrificing his life and happiness for his country. This book tell the story of Collingwood's adventurous life, from youthful scrapes to his heroic actions at the battle of Trafalgar and is published in Spring 2005, the Year of the Sea and bicentenary of the Battle of Trafalgar.

Paperback. Zustand: Very Good. This title tells the story of the rise and decline of the military presence in Newcastle upon Tyne. Newcastle Barracks has housed many thousands of troops, often along with their families, from the dashing hussars of Napoleonic times to the Tommies of the two World Wars, and the National Servicemen of recent history. Today, at the beginning of the 21st century, the drill square no longer echoes to the sound of marching feet and the married quarters are empty of soldiers' wives and children. The Barracks which for so many years formed a vital part of Newcastle's social history has all but vanished. This book aims to ensure those past times are not forgotten. Tommy Hewitson has an intimate acquaintance with the Barracks having completed his army basic training there in 1953. He is an expert on the military history of the regiments associated with the North East and the men who served in them. The book is supported by The James Knott Trust.
