| "Ett äventyr med Richard Bolitho, bok 1": För den unge sjöofficeren Richard Bolitho innebar våren 1778 en vändpunkt. Det var det år då
amerikanska frihetskriget svällde ut till en total kamp för frigörelse från det brittiska styret. Det var det år då Bolitho fick sitt första befäl - ombord på Sparrow,
en liten och välbeväpnad korvett. Allt eftersom kriget fortskrider får Sparrow nya uppgifter. Framgången växlar, men när de väldiga flottorna från Storbritannien
coh Frankrike dras samman i Chesapeake- viken ställs Bolitho inför oanade svårigheter. |

| "Ett äventyr med Richard Bolitho, bok 3": Mars 1784. För ett år sedan återvände Richard Bolitho från striderna i Västindien. Fred råder, men England sviktar under påfrestningarna. Svår arbetslöshet har följt i krigets spår, många med ett
ärofyllt förflutet inom krigsmakten lever ett undanskymt liv i misär. Då riktas intresset österut, stärkta handelsförbindelser och kolonial expansion ses som säkra medel att nå ekonomisk
uppgång. Som ny befälhavare på fregatten Undine lättar Bolitho ankar i Spithead med Indien som mål. Men det är farliga vatten han ger sig in i. |

| "Ett äventyr med Richard Bolitho, bok 5": Det är juni 1793. Revolutionen drar fram över Frankrike. Krigsmolnen hopas över Europa. Det av inre strider försvagade Frankrike kan åter bli en maktfaktor att räkna med. Liksom i det
förgångna kommer England att stå eller falla med sina beväpnade enheter till sjöss. När fientligheterna åter blossar upp får Richard Bolitho
order att bege sig till Gibraltar där linjeskeppet Hyperion väntar på hans befäl. Det gäller för honom att förena sig med en brittisk eskader
utanför Toulon för att med alla medel försöka förhindra att ett nytt och ännu mäktigare Frankrike reser sig efter blodbaden och skotten från exektionspatrullerna. |

| It was the final, freezing hours before Christmas day, 1944 - in the last bitter winter of war.
high on a mountain ledge in Belgium, a handful of American GIs, trapped by ice and fear, were alone. They were surrounded by the final horror of the crumbling Nazi nightmare.
The Battle of the Bulge. Behind them was the greatest scientific prize of the war - the wreckage of the first jet plane. In front of them were Germany's most skilled and lethal commandoes.
On that peak, American and German were alone. man to Man. Face to Face. With their guns they would fight the last battle of blood and bullets. With their hearts they would ight the final struggl between the honor of truth and the glory of lies.

| This is a gut-wrenching novel of two young men in a terifying war. Billy, the brawler, a seventeen-year-old pug from the slums of Boston. And Dewey,
the rawhide Texan, young and not afraid of dying - or killing. This is a heartbreaking novel, drenched in the blood of soldiers sacrificed for a charred hilltop, an officer's vengeful whim.
This is the emotional story of mid-twentieth-century warfare, of courage and cowardice, and what it takes to be a hero. it's a powerful story you'll never forget. |
