Old Tappan, New Jersey, U.S.A.: Free Press, 2004. New book, 304 pages. "The bush administration has squandered the opportunity to eliminate al Qaeda.."

Richard Clarke served seven presidents and worked inside the White House until he resigned in 2003. He knows, better than anyone, the hidden successes and failures of the Clinton years. He know, better than anyone, why we failed to prevent 9/11. He knows, better than anyone, the hidden successes and failures of the Clinton years.

Virago, 2008. New book, 340 pages. In the early hours of New Year's Eve 1994, Russian troops invaded the Republic of Chechnya, plunging the country into a prolonged and bloody conflict that continues to this day.

In 2006 and 2007 she returned, travelling in secret, in constant danger. The tragedy in Chechnya had continued but the world had moved on, its attention on other conflicts. In a broken and devestated society she meets the orphans, the wounded, the lost. And she meets the children of Grozny, those who will shape their country's future. What happens to a child who grows up surrounded by war, who grows accustomed to violence?. Soft Cover. As New. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

United Kingdom: Marshall Pickering, 2004. New book, 280 pages. The tank and infantry company known as the 'Black Knights' was amongst the first units in the US Third Division to engage in combat when, twelve hours after crossing the Kuwait border, it helped sieze the Tallil airfield. Eight hundred miles and almost a month later, it headed a column that fought its way through Republican Guard units on the outskirts of Baghdad and led the advance from the west into the centre of Saddam Hussein's capital. By the time the first statues of Saddam were toppled in Baghdad, the soldiers had been through a terrifying baptism of fire, and had inflicted terrible casualties on the Iraqis. How did the troops - many of them under the age of twenty, the majority never having left the US befor - cope with fear and injury? How did they react to the killing? How were they changed by the war? What, finally, was the impact on the people of Baghdad? . Hard Cover. As New/As New. 8vo - over 7¾" -…

This book follows this band of warriors from an action packed assault on the high seas to the harsh lands of Afghanistan, as their hunt for the mechants of death continues. The story culminates in the single greatest battle in the Afghan conflict - the brutal seige of Qala-I-Janghi, and ancient mud-walled fortress crammed full of hundreds of Al Qaeda and Taliban fighters in which 500 terrorists would be killed. This book chronicles every twist and turn of that battle as it unfolds hour by hour, until the shocking finale.. Trade Paperback. As New. 8vo - over 7¾" - 9¾" tall.

Simon & Schuster, 2010. New book, 303 pages. In summer 2006 Helmand Province erupted into violence as NATO forces struggled to crush Taliban strongholds. For six weeks the Royal Irish Regiment and the Paras defended Sangin in the face of ever-mounting attacks. At this point young officer Patrick Bury was learning the trade of the infantry in the Brecon Beacons. Paddy had always wanted to be a soldier - a desire fraught with the contradictions of a complex history overridden by a 'warrior calling'. When he arrived in Afghanistan with 1st Royal Irish, he was surrounded by men oozing bloody combat experience. This was not Sandhurst. It was extreme violence and killing. Hades Four One was his callsign and the infantry mantra rang in his ears: 'To close and kill the enemy, in all weather conditions, in all terrain, by day or night.' For six months Paddy and his company dealt with 110 IEDs, of which 60 exploded on them, killing his comrades in the most vicious of ways and fuelling a…
