The Death Railway is an accurate account of Lieutenant Colonel Charles Kappe. He experienced the atrocities of the PsOW that the Japanese forced to build a railway through Western Thailand to Myanmar. The terrain of this area was rugged, the temperature was hot, and the treatment of these men was abysmal. What these prisoners underwent was horrific and unimaginable... If you are interested in WWII history that is more obscure and less talked about, this is a great book to read! It was very educational but also truthfully graphic.

[b]Rating[/b]: 5 out of 5 stars Wow! This is a fascinating and well documented look at the myths surrounding the 20th Century’s most evil dictator.

The Brookwood Killers is a fascinating book that reveals one of the lesser-known aspects of wartime, namely violent crime and their punishment on the home front. In this case, it is focused on those criminals who have also ended up memorialized on a monument. I think there are a lot of things a reader can take from this book. The look at the cases themselves was very good and quite interesting. If you're more into the big picture, I think you will find the larger story of how the circumstances in Britain during this time, while bringing out the best in so many, also was ripe for bringing out the worst in a few. I found the telling of the bigger story through the telling of all of the smaller stories quite compelling. Johnson also tried to make sure the victims of these crimes, while not memorialized on a monument, were not forgotten or overlooked just for sensationalist reasons. Highly recommended for both true crime readers as well as those with an interest in history, particularly wartime.. Read more

I enjoyed this book very much and would recommend it to anyone with an interest in gallantry, and in the various people who have been rewarded for it. Read the full review [link=https://www.arrse.co.uk/community/threads/the-victoria-cross-in-100-objects.307021/]here[/link]

The book is divided up into 9 chapters, starting with the main coverage of Fuhrerhauptquartiere Wolfschanze itself, and Inside the Lair of the Wolf. It describes the site is excellent detail, not only how it evolved but the various buildings and what they were used for, and what life was like for those who worked there.
