Synopsis

In "The Boy Allies with Haig in Flanders; Or, the Fighting Canadians of Vimy Ridge," Clair W. Hayes crafts a compelling narrative that intertwines historical events with the courage and camaraderie of young soldiers during World War I. The novel exemplifies a vivid literary style characterized by detailed imagery and emotive dialogue, bringing to life the harrowing experiences faced by Canadian troops at the Vimy Ridge battleground. Set against the backdrop of the Great War, the book not only explores the personal growth of its characters but also serves as a tribute to collective national identity and sacrifice in times of conflict. Clair W. Hayes, an author with a background shaped by the realities of war, draws inspiration from the immense valor displayed by Canadian soldiers, particularly during pivotal battles. His unique perspective, likely influenced by stories he encountered during his own education and life experiences, infuses the narrative with authenticity and urgency. Hayes's previous works often reflect themes of bravery and patriotism, making this book a continuation of his literary examination of heroism in turbulent times. For readers seeking a profound understanding of the sacrifices made during World War I, as well as a thrilling tale of youthful bravery and loyalty, this book is essential. "The Boy Allies with Haig in Flanders" offers not only historical insights but also resonates with contemporary themes of resilience and camaraderie, making it a worthy addition to any literary collection.

    A SPECTATOR BOOK OF THE YEAR – 'a dark remembrance of 1953, when nuclear annihilation was only the press of a button away'.
    January 1953. Eight years on from the most destructive conflict in human history, the Cold War enters its deadliest phase. An Iron Curtain has descended across Europe, and hostilities have turned hot on the Korean peninsula as the United States and Soviet Union clash in an intractable and bloody proxy war.
    Former wartime allies have grown far apart. An ageing Winston Churchill, back in Downing Street, yearns for peace with the Kremlin – but new American President Dwight Eisenhower cautions the West not to drop its guard. Joseph Stalin, implacable as ever, conducts vicious campaigns against imaginary internal enemies.
    Meanwhile, the pace of the nuclear arms race has become frenetic. The Soviet Union has finally tested its own atom bomb, as has Britain. But in the middle of the Pacific Ocean, the United States has detonated its first thermonuclear device, dwarfing the destruction unleashed on Hiroshima and Nagasaki.
    For the first time, the Doomsday Clock is set at two minutes to midnight, with the risk of a man-made global apocalypse increasingly likely. As the Cold War powers square up, every city has become a potential battleground and every citizen a target. 1953 is set to be a year of living dangerously.

    Before any type of unified political entity named Israel existed, the Jewish groups whose descendants would later form Israel identified themselves by their particular tribe. If asked their nationality or country of origin, they would likely identify themselves as Danites (from the tribe of Dan; Ex. 31:6) or Ephraimites (from the tribe of Ephraim; Judg. 12:5), etc. The main way to differentiate these tribes from other tribes in Canaan was their common worship of the deity YHWH, but in terms of language or other cultural characteristics, it would have been difficult to tell a Canaanite from an Israelite. 
    Eventually, these separate tribes united together as a type of confederation, allies who made a treaty (covenant) to provide military aid for one another when threatened by an enemy state. But it was only under the charismatic leadership of David that the 12 tribes united into a single political entity. Scholars refer to the period encompassing the reign of David and his son Solomon as the United Monarchy. This period, spanning only two generations, was the only time when all of the tribes were politically united, and after a contentious schism that resulted because the northern tribes felt exploited by the Judean kings, the northern tribes seceded from the “United Kingdom” and reverted back to the ancient northern versus southern division of the tribes. The main difference this time was that the southern kingdom now incorporated the tribe of Benjamin, located at the border between these two new nations, within its political borders. The tribe of Simeon (south of Judah) had already ceased to maintain a separate existence (see below). The new northern kingdom adopted the name Israel, while the southern kingdom took their regional name of Judah.
