In 1939, war breaks out again between Britain, France, and Germany. A British Expeditionary Force is shipped across the Channel, and settles down to await the inevitable. The spring of 1940 sees the British Army driven back into the sea. A scratch force of gunners, Territorials and infantry make their stand in the historic town of Calais. They are outnumbered and outgunned, desperately trying to defend a town that's being blasted into rubble. There can only be one outcome to this battle. Rifleman Fred Jackley - barely out of his teens and recently married - knows this. Lieutenant Airey Neave - anxious to prove himself a leader of men in combat - knows this. Major John Heywood - a veteran of "the war to end all wars" - knows this. Drawing on the author's own family history, this ambitious trilogy weaves together the stories of three amateur soldiers who were pitted against the Panzers. They fought on so that others might live. They were men of valour.

By the end of the nineteenth century, Ireland, as the result of mass emigration, particularly to the United States, had come to mean more than just the island itself. This reality has been acknowledged by recent scholarship; however, the transnational dimensions of Irish culture and identity, particularly during the self-reflective years of the Irish renaissance, have yet to be adequately documented and dissected. This monograph rectifies this by examining how, why and with what consequences Irish cultural ideas were exported, particularly through the vector of lecture-tours, to the United States in the years between 1891 and 1916. In tracking the evolution in how these ideas were presented, and in how they, and their proponents, were received, many facets of both Irish and Irish-American self-conceptualization in this pivotal era are revealed. Yet, this work, ultimately, has an appeal and a scope that stretches beyond ethnicity; it further illuminates the dynamics that underpinned the formation of both the Irish and the American nations, as well as bearing witness to the lives, and narrating the stories, of a host of fascinating individuals who contributed to these gradual births.
