The Naked Warriors


Book Description

From the tragic Marine Corps landing at Tarawa in 1943 that spawned the UDT "frogmen", to the beaches of Normandy, Kwajalein, Okinawa, and Korea, to the formation in the 1960s of the U.S. Navy SEALs, Fane takes the reader along as the men swim alone through mines and anti-invasion obstacles, treacherous reefs, and enemy machine-gun fire, scouting beaches and clearing invasion approaches before an assault. Also included are Fane's heart-stopping Arctic diving experiments in the 1950s and his pioneering development of submersible vehicles, mixed-gas scuba gear, and lock-in/lock-out operations with Navy submarines.




SILVATICI


Book Description

1066. William The Conqueror takes England. Wrong. That version of history is Norman revisionism and propaganda! The truth is that England did not surrender to The Bastard Duke’s rule. For the next 40 years they fought a war of resistance in the forests and moorlands. This fighting force of proto-guerrillas were called the Silvatici and became the stuff of Norman nightmares. This is their origin story. It follows Edgar The Atheling (the legitimate King of England), Princess Margaret (who becomes Queen of Scotland and Saint Margaret), Kallín of the Rohán ( the young Chieftain of a clan of indigenous mercenaries) and Luna (a ferocious young female warrior). Their adventures take us from the great courts of Normandy, London and York to the wilds of Northumbria and the moorlands which will become the killing fields of the war of resistance to come.
