Sinopse

In "The Battle of the Somme – First & Second Phase (Complete Edition – Volumes 1&2)," John Buchan delivers a meticulously detailed account of one of World War I's most consequential battles. With a compelling narrative style that seamlessly weaves historical analysis and personal accounts, Buchan captures the visceral realities of combat, the strategic imperatives driving military leaders, and the profound human cost of warfare. This complete edition provides a thorough examination of the tactical developments and political ramifications that emerged from the Somme, contextualizing the battle within the larger narrative of the Great War. John Buchan, a Scottish novelist and politician, was deeply influenced by his experiences as a military secretary during WWI, instilling in him a passion for documenting the realities of war. His literary pursuits were often interlaced with his fervent nationalism, making him an insightful commentator on the era's social and political landscapes. Buchan's background in both literature and history allowed him to approach his subject matter with a unique blend of scholarly rigor and narrative flair, making his work both informative and engaging. This book is highly recommended for readers seeking a comprehensive understanding of the Battle of the Somme, offering not just a military account but also a thoughtful exploration of the human experience amid conflict. Historians, military enthusiasts, and general readers alike will find Buchan's insights invaluable in grasping the complex legacy of this pivotal event.

    Vision’s  infinite range of influence knows no boundaries. It flows from the youngest to the oldest, from the novice to the most experienced member of the team. It infiltrates the organization with freshness of purpose and clearness of direction. The leader clothed with the clarity of vision, exposes others to the knowledge, necessity and power of vision. Then becomes an instrument in helping them understand the work of vision. The energy and the ontagiousness of vision develops a persistent personality within the leader and within the organization that recognizes it and seeks after it. Vision helps every person within the organization to see that the role of leader calls their name and refers to them as the leader in their area of influence. This keen awareness awakens dreams that ignite the hearts, inspire the minds and move the people to greatness.
     
    Questions are presented to help the leader reflect on the current state and identify important 
    next steps that will propel the organization forward. Examples and strategies are included which the leader can employ to inspire vision within others and strengthen partnerships with them that build up the organization and help it move to its highest level of effectiveness.

    Living the Technology Revolution...

    This isn't a book filled with dry timelines or technical blueprints of the digital revolution. Instead, it's a firsthand journey—my journey—through one of the most astonishing transformations in human history: the rise of personal computing and the dawn of the digital age. 
    I was born in November 1955, at a time when the word “computer” was barely whispered outside of military labs and universities. My earliest memories include a bulky black-and-white television with rabbit-ear antennas, broadcasting a single channel. That flickering screen was my first encounter with electronic media—a far cry from the high-definition, touch-responsive world we live in now. 
    Over the decades, my path as an engineer and software developer placed me squarely in the midst of this technological upheaval. I didn’t just watch the future arrive—I helped build it, one line of code and one innovation at a time. 
    This book is a personal time capsule—a chronicle of what it was really like to live through the shift from analog to digital, from typewriters to tablets, from rotary phones to the infinite power in our pockets today. If you're a younger reader curious about how we got here, or someone who remembers the glow of vacuum tubes and the clack of punch cards, I invite you to walk with me through the decades. 
    You may be surprised by how far we’ve come—and how much we’ve forgotten along the way. 
    Many of the chapters are identified with the years or periods of time where these changes occurred.

    Walden Woods was the place gay men went to get away from it all and enjoy some clothing-optional fun. Now, they are struggling to keep the place open. Hoping to turn things around, Daddy Lin convinces his friend to create an adult film in the camp. The only problem: an ex-employee with a grudge has other plans for Daddy Lin and his boyfriend, Nathan.
