The Second World War was the final global conflict of the twentieth century. It involved more combatants, and a wider range of battlefield terrain than any other conflict in history, from the frozen plains of Russia to the baking Libyan desert, and from the atolls of the Pacific to the skies over Britain. In Great Battles of World War II, Dudley has taken a fresh look at the crucial battles which decided the outcome of the Second World War, beginning with the evacuation of Dunkirk in 1940, a feat that boosted the morale of a nation during its darkest hour, and reaching a climactic end with the final bloody reckoning between the Red Army and the Third Reich amongst the ruins of Berlin.

In the sweltering summer of 1858 the stink of sewage from the polluted Thames was so offensive that it drove Members of Parliament from the chamber of the House of Commons. Sewage generated by a population of over two million Londoners was pouring into the river and was being carried to and fro by the tides. The Times called the crisis "The Great Stink". Parliament had to act – drastic measures were required to clean the Thames and to improve London’s primitive system of sanitation. The great engineer entrusted by Parliament with this enormous task was Sir Joseph Bazalgette. This book is an account of his life and work.

Free Download Barbara Yorke, "Alfred the Great "
English | ISBN: 0750961473 | 2016 | 128 pages | EPUB | 520 KB
Why is Alfred "the Great?" A simple answer is that he has been seen as a man who saved England, invented English identity and pioneered English as a written language. He is the first Englishman for whom a biography survives, so we know more about Alfred and his ideals than we do for most people who lived over 1,000 years ago. A slightly longer answer would say that things are a bit more complicated, and that one reason Alfred seems to be so "great" was that he made sure we were told that he was. To get the measure of Alfred we need to look at what he actually managed to achieve. Can we resurrect the "real" King Alfred? Even if we have to part company with some of the Victorian adulation, we are still left with a pretty impressive and surprising person.

Conway Maritime Press | 1990 | ISBN: 0851775497 | English | 228 pages | PDF | 137.72 MB
This a very in-depth work, which doesn’t simply present the ship in a vacuum, and is a full-blooded maritime history that isn’t deathly dull to boot. The book goes into quite a bit of detail on the early history of iron shipbuilding, steam propelling machinery, and the achievements of Isambard Kingdom Brunel and his father Marc. The development and construction of the ship, her machinery, and General Arrangements are also covered in some depth. About 100 pages are devoted to her career, from triumphant introduction into service, to her "end" in 1937 as an ancient coaling hulk scuttled off the Falkland Islands. There’s also a number of detailed appendixes, including specifications of the ship and machinery, information on each voyage, an accident log, and a thorough glossary.
