Sinopsis

The Brontë Sisters - The Complete Novels offers a profound exploration of the human psyche, entrenched in themes of love, social criticism, and the struggle for identity. This anthology encompasses a range of literary styles, from the passionate romanticism of *Wuthering Heights* to the incisive social commentary of *Jane Eyre*. The Brontë sisters' work, with its unique combination of Gothic and realist styles, serves as a touchstone in the evolution of English literature, providing readers with some of the 19th century's most influential works. Dive into the stark moorlands depicted in these pages and experience narratives that confront societal norms and personal dilemmas with unflinching honesty. Charlotte, Emily, and Anne Brontë, as pioneering female voices within a patriarchal Victorian society, provide a diversity of perspectives that interrogate the roles of women in their time. Their collective works align with the movement towards more personal and psychologically complex narratives that characterized the era's transition from Romanticism to Realism. Together, their novels enrich the literary tapestry with insights drawn from their own experiences, challenging stereotypes and advocating for a nuanced understanding of human nature and moral complexity. This compendium presents a unique opportunity to engage with the radical ideas and literary innovations of the Brontë sisters in one definitive volume. It serves not only as an essential entry point for students and enthusiasts of classic literature but also as a profound invitation to explore the dynamic interplay between personal and universal themes that remain relevant today. As readers delve into this comprehensive collection, they will find a fertile ground for reflection and dialogue, offered through the profoundly different yet complementary voices of three of literature's most compelling figures.

    When John Ramsay dropped into the Schorfheide Forest, north east of Berlin in 1944 his mission had two parts: to locate and infiltrate Goering's Headquarters, then once inside to blow the safe and steal the Nazi war plans. As a Commando, John Ramsay was trained for the first part, but it was only as Johnny Ramensky, Scotland's most infamous career thief that he was qualified to do the latter. A THIEF AND A HERO tells the extraordinary story of Gentle Johnny Ramensky: the son of Lithuanian immigrant parents who went on to become a household name as the foremost safe-blower in the country. His daring escapes from prison would further endear him to the public and eventually bring him to the attention of the British army. When the Second World War broke, he was hand-picked to join the Commandos and rechristened himself Ramsay.It was there that he used his talent and bravery for King and country, parachuting behind enemy lines to crack the safes of key people in the German High Command; Rommel and Goering among them.Thief. Commando. Saboteur. Hero. This is his story.

    On the morning of 16 December 1944, a monumental German force of six hundred thousand men crashed into the Allied lines in the snowbound hills of the Belgian Ardennes. Why were Allied forces so surprised by this counterattack? And why have the German sabotage and deception operations that disrupted supply lines and outwitted Allied intelligence been so overlooked by historians? 
     
     
     
    Through interviews with three key German officers undertaken shortly after the end of the war, Charles Whiting examines the Battle of the Bulge from a new perspective. Hermann Giskes, a German Army counterintelligence officer, sheds light on his activities directing spies and saboteurs. Paratrooper Freiherr von der Heydte tells how his men were blown over great distances but managed to engage and tie down thousands of Allied troops who thought Nazi paratroopers were landing everywhere. And SS commando leader Otto Skorzeny recounts how he led a handful of special forces, wearing US uniforms and driving US equipment, behind enemy lines to wreak havoc. 
     
     
     
    Ardennes: The Secret War exposes the weaknesses of Allied intelligence and shows how, even when it seemed that the war would be over by Christmas, the Germans nearly turned defeat into victory.

Reed, also a veteran, who served as bugler in the 9th Massachusetts Battery, later received the Medal of Honor for saving the life of his battery commander at Gettysburg. Hard Tack and Coffee is not about battles, but rather about how the common Union soldiers of the Civil War lived in camp and on the march.
