Sinopsis

The Scarf Tradition explores the surprisingly rich history of scarves, revealing how this seemingly simple accessory has played diverse roles across cultures and religions. From ancient civilizations to modern fashion, the book unveils the scarf's evolution, highlighting its significance as a symbol of status, religious piety, and practical survival. Intriguingly, scarves were not merely decorative; they often denoted social standing and even offered protection from harsh climates. This book examines the scarf's journey through time, starting with its earliest uses in ancient societies and tracing its adaptation across various cultures.

 
Major chapters delve into the scarf's use in ancient Egypt as a symbol of status, its religious significance in Eastern religions, and its practical applications among nomadic peoples. By examining archaeological finds, historical texts, and fashion archives, The Scarf Tradition provides a comprehensive understanding of the scarf's enduring appeal and its continued relevance in contemporary society.

    Until the end of the Cold War in 1990, the RAF had several major bases worldwide—largely in those areas where the service had been based during the inter-war years. In Cold War Boys Overseas, contributors recall their time at these foreign destinations. With almost half of RAF personnel serving abroad in the 1960s situated throughout Germany, the book starts its focus there with tales of monitoring the Soviet threat. The stories then advance to the warmer climates of the Near East and Far East where different challenges awaited those serving there. As the period progressed RAF squadrons saw changes to their equipment with Hunters, Javelins and Canberras being replaced by a new generation of combat aircraft such as the Buccaneer, Harrier, Jaguar, Phantom and Vulcan. Innovation of missile defense and the expansion of the role of helicopters were also critical at this time. How this affected the RAF is told by the aircrew and ground crew who served then. The stories that feature in the book reveal just how serving overseas was a different way of life and the chapters illustrate the many facets of the RAF’s capabilities across the globe. They also highlight a lifestyle that no longer exists in today's RAF. Buckle up and allow the Cold War Boys to take you on a thrilling adventure across the globe.

    Under the cover of night, on February 19, 1973, another U.S. president witnessed extraterrestrials. 
     
     
     
    President Richard Nixon made a secret trip to a top security U.S. Air Force base, as his former boss, President Dwight Eisenhower, did in 1954. Nixon was said to have taken his golfing buddy, comedian Jackie Gleason. According to Gleason's then wife, Beverly McKittrick Gleason, Jackie was deeply shaken later that night when he returned home and confessed to their clandestine trip. 
     
     
     
    As established in Smith's previous work, President Eisenhower's Close Encounters, this meeting was reminiscent of and perhaps even predicated by similar visits made by the president's predecessors, as well as others in the American government and entertainment industry. This in-depth book will attempt to separate fact from fiction. These events were carried off without the public learning the hushed facts and data connecting the two different presidential administrations . . .
