  A fascinating and moving biography of Colin Anson, the German refugee who became an elite British commando 
   
   
   
  Born in Germany in 1922, Colin Anson's (Claus Ascher) childhood was marked by the trials of Nazism. His father was arrested by the Gestapo in 1937 and transported to Dachau, where he died shortly after. Colin, aged just seventeen, escaped to Britain in the Kindertransport. As soon as he was old enough, Colin volunteered in the Pioneer Corps. Then, in 1942, he was recruited for the elite commando unit X-Troop. 
   
   
   
  Colin took part in the invasions of Sicily and Italy in 1943, where he sustained a near-fatal injury. But just months later, he returned to duty. He fought in the Yugoslav islands, became the first Allied soldier to liberate Corfu, and was stationed in postwar Frankfurt. 
   
   
   
  In this unique biography, Helen Fry traces the remarkable story of Colin's life. Drawing on extensive interviews, Fry recounts his actions in X-Troop and beyond in his own words—and sheds new light on the experience of refugees in the British forces.

  John F Kennedy - His Life His...

  JFK, or John Fitzgerald Kennedy, was an American political leader who functioned as the 35th President of the US from 1961 till his assassination to the conclusion of his 3rd year in office. Kennedy was president throughout the height of the Cold War, and the majority of his time in office was spent handling the Soviet Union and Cuba. Prior to his presidency, Kennedy acted as a Democrat in both homes of Congress, representing Massachusetts. 
  Much controversy exists about the war in Vietnam and other aspects of the Cold War that John F. Kennedy dealt with. Many conspiracy theories exist about this assassination, and all of this has become a big part of the American history and culture in the 20th century. Personally, I think it would be wise to study this part of history a little, with its significant impact on worldwide events, coalitions, cease-fires, wars, and more.

  "4 out of 5 Stars. Engrossing and earnest, On to the Next Thing is an insightful and positive journey through an empowering personal philosophy." - Brenna O'Hara, Reedsy Discovery 
  Entertaining true crime meets an encouraging spiritual awakening. 
  Having the right mix of encouragement and entertainment, Corbin Bosiljevac's memoir gets to the heart of an extraordinary story told by an ordinary man. When questionable choices, addiction, and mental health consume his existence, the yearning for something larger becomes imperative. 
  This is a true story about a man's struggles through a time in his life when choices led him astray. From college graduate and Fortune 1000 salesman, to black-market drug dealing, crime emerged as an every day event. Illicit drugs and illegal commerce became profitable and daunting, while the danger of these activities began to creep closer by the hour. 
  With federal prison as the catalyst, there was a chance that he would not recover. Being a fearful time, the crippling anxiety overshadowed any hope that he had left. But his life was rebuilt with a new foundation. These changes did not come easily or quickly, but anything worthwhile never does. This is truly a story of redemption. 
  "On to the Next Thing" is an exceptional read about not giving up on life no matter how far you have fallen. Our individual journeys do not necessarily unfold as we have planned, but it is our experiences that shape our time. These experiences during this time are his story.

  The Real Manhunter Casebook is the captivating accompaniment to hit Sky Crime TV series The Real Manhunter, chronicling 12 of the most complex cases that former Metropolitan Police detective Colin Sutton worked on throughout his career. Colin Sutton is widely acknowledged as the most eminent Metropolitan Police detective of the last thirty years. His career was diverse, from a uniformed inspector to murder squad detective and eventually Detective Chief Inspector and it was the latter role that brought him to the public attention when he led the teams that caught serial killer Levi Bellfield and ‘Night Stalker’ Delroy Grant, cases which inspired the hit ITV dramas Manhunt, starring Martin Clunes. In this book, Sutton gives readers a glimpse into the life of a top tier police detective and revisits some of the other cases he led throughout his career, all against a backdrop of his own life.
