Beschreibung

Prisoner Escapes explores the compelling history of military prison escapes, diving into the resourcefulness and unwavering determination of soldiers seeking freedom. It examines the physical methods employed, like the construction of elaborate tunnels, alongside the psychological resilience necessary to endure captivity. The book argues that the impulse to escape represents a fundamental expression of human resistance and highlights the strategic impact these attempts had on prisoner morale and enemy operations.

 
The book details the historical context of military imprisonment and the motivations behind escape attempts. Chapters are dedicated to specific escape methods, such as tunneling, disguises, and exploiting security weaknesses, using case studies from World War I, World War II, and the Korean War. It's intriguing to consider how escape strategies were often supported by networks both inside and outside prison walls, which highlights the importance of logistical planning in even the most desperate situations.

 
Through official records and firsthand accounts, Prisoner Escapes presents a comprehensive view of this often-overlooked aspect of military history. It progresses from establishing historical context to analyzing specific escape methods and ultimately examines the broader impact of prisoner escapes on military strategy. The book provides valuable insights into wartime resilience and the enduring quest for liberty.

    Forget Every "Black" book you ever read; this Book is NOT "your black" book!This is the story of a first time author, who calls himself "Uncle Meshorn", as he debunks every label by which "uncle sam" has branded him with, including "uncle tom"!If MeShorn is NOT "your black", America, then who is he? 
    As soon as you think you can "box" MeShorn into "one of yours", you will have to embarrassingly pull him out, as you read the next chapter!Yet, this book is not just about who he is, rather who you are.His story will force you to, grudgingly "pull yourself" out of boxes or labels, America has imprisoned you inside, in the name of culture, diversity, community and patriotism! 
    This book is intelligent but is not written by an intellectual.At heart, it is the cry of a child who severely doubted his identity, after being dragged through the muddy life of his gods: his parents, foster parents, and uncles.As an adult, Meshorn had to wake up to the reality of the community he was raised in, "...The search for identity has alienated them from their true selves; the search for roots has UPROOTED them; the search for a 'colored' God has made them GODLESS." 
    As a US Army Officer, in his travels, he discovered that America in search of an identity, likewise, has sold its soul, in exchange for nostalgia of a supposed greatness in the past.He does not believe that America was great or is great, but he can see clearly now that it can become as great as it wants to be.And the only way to become great is to never reply as Cain did when he was asked, "Where is your brother? ... "Am I my brother's keeper?!"

    Breasts are celebrated and scrutinised, fetishised and censored, worshipped and weaponised. As the saying goes: ‘Behind every great woman is a pair of boobs trying desperately to stay out of the conversation.’ 
     
    For most of her life, unconcernedly flat-chested author and academic Dr Lisa Portolan had never really thought about her breasts, or boobs in general. But then she met Amanda Goff - aka former escort Samantha X - fellow author, journalist and owner of a huge pair of breasts. A friendship formed, then a working relationship ... and as the two women embarked on business dealings together, the monolithic power of mammary glands became glaringly apparent.  
     
    All too often, men would ogle Amanda's chest in meetings, text her romantic/perverse messages, and try to get into her pants. The same men would focus their attention on Lisa's face, send her professional emails, and otherwise ignore her. Lisa was left pondering whether she should have her breasts augmented in order to become more visible, while Amanda wondered whether she should have hers reduced.  
     
    But they both found themselves asking the same question: why all the fuss about boobs? 
     
    Lisa and Amanda don't pretend to have all the answers - they're not even sure how they feel about them most of the time. But that's precisely the point. Boobs is a smart, irreverent, wide-ranging and often hilarious conversation about the human and social-historical journey of breasts, richly illustrated with personal anecdotes and perspectives from coauthors at opposite ends of the bust spectrum.  
     
    With its eclectic mix of chest-related topics - from our fixation with symmetry to the judgy debates about breastfeeding - Boobs celebrates our messy, often ridiculous and always complex relationship with these culturally charged appendages.
