Destroyer Posted: 20 Oct 2011 06:30 AM PDT Destroyer by Steve Fisher Here is the starkly realistic story of an obsolete American submarine in war time-trapped by the thundering herd of depth-charging destroyers overhead… The poignant, profoundly emotional account of men inside the firing pits of a battleship’s 14-inch turret guns-fighting the last desperate fight for Democracy. It is the love story of a young naval officer, a girl correspondent, and an embittered novelist who has been to all the wars. The story is unfolded during what may be the most important hour in American history. The United States has declared war on Germany, Italy, and Japan. The invading navies of these countries prepare for an advance on the Panama Canal. A terrific naval battle takes place. The result hangs in balance. And the suspense in this story is tremendous as the action shifts from the high seas where the U.S. Fleet is battling the enemy might-to intrigue-ridden Cristobal, where foreign agents strive to undermine the power of the U.S. in the Canal Zone, and where the unusual love story of the three principal characters reaches a surprise climax.

Best of Friends Posted: 20 Oct 2011 06:25 AM PDT Best of Friends by Alison James The Civil War tested loyalties and turned friends into enemies. Officers from the Regular Army who had been brothers-in-arms found themselves generals, commanding opposing armies. Many of these friendships stretched back decades, to West Point and the Mexican War, where they had fought side-by-side with their fellow-officers Jackson, Grant & Lee. Yet love and loyalty are not so simply given, nor taken-back. ‘Best of Friends’ tells the story of one such friendship, strong enough to outlast life itself – a story of honour, affection, decency… of lives briefly touching, or forever interwoven; of having to choose sides; of a woman, dearly loved; of the kindness of friends, and the shattering events of war.
