Paperback. Condición: New. New softcover in printed wraps. 8vo. (8.11 x 0.71 x 5.24 inches) Clean text free of marks or underlining. Includes an index. 176 pp. Fast shipping in a secure book box mailer with tracking. Among the numerous books that have been written about the First World War, Hunger stands out for its focus on the… role of food in this bloodiest and most gruesome of conflicts. Dutch historian Rick Blom has created a fascinating and absorbing narrative from a wide range of source material, including personal diaries by active servicemen and civilians, historical accounts, food manuals, recipe books, and interviews with veterans. Direct quotes from diaries are deftly merged with an account of the war's progress from the standpoint of the three principal nations involved: Britain, France, and Germany. Interwoven are vivid descriptions of the author's own attempts at experiencing at first hand what it must have been like to be active in combat. Working as a sous-chef in a recreated field kitchen, he takes part in a re-enactment and later spends three cold, hungry, solitary days and nights in a restored trench. Throughout, the author's focus remains firmly on food, or rather the lack of it, and everything related to it: production, distribution, preparation, quantities, and how these issues influenced the outcome of the war. Recipes from wartime sources conclude each chapter. Hunger makes for a gripping and at times harrowing read. Written by a historian from a country that was neutral during the war, this work offers a new perspective on the conflict on the centenary of the armistice.

Hardcover with dust jacket. Condición: very good condition. First Edition - - Date: 11 May 1941 - Location: Berchdesgaden. - The day after Rudolf Hess took off from Augsburg and hadn't - yet returned or sent any signal, Adolf Hitler had to say - something to justify Hess' so far unexplained disappearance. - Not least for the ben…efit of the German nation and his - then trading ally, Soviel Russia. - Consequently he authorised a statement saying that Hess was suffering from a mental derangement and had succeeded - in obtaining an aeroplane against the strict orders of the - Führer. Of course, nothing could be further from the truth, - but an explanation had at least been proffered before British - Propaganda commenced. The unlikely explanation has however proven durable, some still believing it to be true 80 years later. - In this, their eighth book on the affair, Harris and Wilbourn - demonstrate that far from being a random act, the flight had - been meticulously planned, using state of the art German radio - technology. Using contemporary equipment, maps and charts - they demonstrate the true nature and character of the flight - and explam what went wrong, leading to the sensational and - very public arrival of Rudolf Hess in Scotland at 23.09hrs - on May 10th 1941. 158 p. with photos, maps and technical illustrations.
