The Siege Collection

This is a collection of three essays which explore various sieges, the first discusses the siege of the Peking Embassy, 1900. The Boxer movement in China was a secret society which preached hatred of foreigners. By the spring of 1900, this movement was out of control. On 9 June, the Boxers launched their first attack against foreign property in Peking by burning down the racecourse. The second essay is a study of the siege of Kars. In 1855, while the British Army was fighting alongside the French and the Turkish armies in the Crimean War, a little-known but serious siege was taking place in the city of Kars in eastern Turkey. The third essay looks at the Boer War which is often regarded as one of the first modern wars, as the British Army using traditional tactics, came to close to being defeated by a Boer force which deployed what was almost a guerrilla strategy in punishing terrain.

Carry On Again Doctor
Cinema Club (1969) 1999 Certificate PG Video Very Good. Running Time approx 86 min. 222g
Carry On Again Doctor says it all; almost the same cast playing similar characters to their previous year's outing in Carry On Doctor. This time, the setting moves from the National Health Service to the private sector and even stretches as far as the "Beatific Islands" when Jim Dale is exiled to a missionary clinic for his overzealous attention to the female patients--who include Barbara Windsor of course. There, orderly Sid James rules the roost of the clinic with his harem of local women. The second half of the Talbot Rothwell script picks up nicely as the characters converge on the private hospital back in England where Dale rakes in the money with a bogus weight loss treatment. Hattie Jacques is in fine form as Matron, Kenneth Williams fascinates with his usual mass of mannerisms and Joan Sims is stately as the Lady Bountiful figure financing most of the shenanigans.

Fourth Estate 2000 1841151017 1st Hardback Like New. 2000 Fourth Estate 1st edition Very Good 625g
David Aaronovitch, a rather large middle-aged man set out on an epic journey to discover England and himself by canoe. Paddling to Jerusalem is the story of where he went, who he met and what he thought. It is a tale of moderate danger, of slow adventure, of big exercise, wet water and bad food. Above all it is a saga about us -- all of us. Beginning at Camden Lock in London, the journey winds through old countryside and new towns, past cathedrals and disused wharves, down ancient waterways lined with crumbling factories and newly restored warehouses.

Abraham, Tom. The Cage: A Year in 'Nam
Bantam Press 2002 059304973x Paperback Very Good. 16 pages of black & white/colour photographs. 445g
In the library of grittily written books on the Vietnam War, Tom "Bud" Abraham's The Cage is something different. Bud Abraham was one of the very few Englishmen who served in Vietnam. In the late 60s he took part in some of the most carnage-filled battles of the war as an officer in the first Cavalry Division. His courage gained him a slew of medals, and he even obtained one of the most prestigious decorations awarded by the American army, the Silver Star. Abraham's ability to convey his own extreme psychological state is astonishing, but not just in terms of the Vietnam War: the book is equally involving when Abraham takes us on to the events that nearly destroyed his life 30 years after the conflict, when he had returned to England.
