The literary style is evocative, vibrant with the patina of the era, and firmly entrenched within the wartime literature canon, making each story both a testament to individual courage and a reflection on the collective human spirit.

As an author, Wilson brings to the forefront a nuanced understanding of military endeavors and the indomitable human ethos that pervades times of conflict. His work suggests an intricate exploration into the psychological landscapes altered by war, undoubtedly influenced by the overarching narratives of loyalty, honor, and the weight of patriotic duty.

The Post of Honour' is more than a mere collection of stories; it presents an immersive experience recommended for readers who seek to comprehend the complexities of war beyond mere battlefields. Those interested in the intersection of history and literature, or the personal dimensions of war, will find Wilson's work to be an invaluable addition to their understanding of World War I. It stands as both homage to unsung heroes and an exploration of humanity's enduring resilience in the face of adversity.

Mass Killers - Inside the Minds...

David J. Krajicek

Can you predict killing sprees? What do mass killers have in common? Why do so many of them write manifestos online and what do these tell us?
 
These are some of the questions David J. Krajicek seeks to answer in Mass Killings, on a topic that is becoming increasing urgent and desperate. In recent decades, mass shootings worldwide have increased in their savagery and frequency. Nearly all mass killers are male - and many of them are bound together by misogyny, misanthropy, and racism. They do not just "snap." They plan their assaults for months or years, drawing up detailed battle plans, and accumulating weaponry. They document the process in journals or videos online, understanding that they are leaving evidence which will help the marquee lights of their futile crimes burn brighter and longer.
 
Krajicek shows the commonalities between mass shooters, and describes the psychopathic process that leads these troubled men to commit atrocities. Mass killers feed off each other's words and deeds, and it's crucial to be able to read the signals they give out to prevent future tragedies.
