In 1943, thirty-two Irish POWs refused a Gestapo request to work for Germany. They were sent to a labour camp, where they were starved, beaten and forced to dig the foundations for a Nazi super-structure codenamed Bunker Valentin - an immense U-boat factory. Thousands of the camp's prisoners perished, including five of the Irishmen; bodies fell into the foundations and were never recovered. The surviving Irishmen were saved by the goodwill of decent Germans.Among them was Harry Callan, a Catholic boy from Derry who went to sea at sixteen as a British Merchant Navy seaman. His ship had been captured by a German raider two years before he ended up at the labour camp. Harry was unable to speak about the brutality he experienced for decades after he was liberated. When he finally began to tell his story, his family were shocked by what they heard.In his eighties, Harry agreed to revisit the site of his incarceration. He found local historians had no evidence of the Irish prisoners: they had disappeared from official records. Determined to give his comrades recognition, he began working to preserve their memory. This is the gripping story of Harry's capture, resistance and liberation.But above all, it is the final chapter in his quest to honour the forgotten heroes of Bunker Valentin.

History is always written by the victors. . . this is the other sie of the coin. This is the front line perspective on World War II as seen through the eyes of the losing side, the men who fought for Hitler. These are the recollections of the men of the Kriegsmarine, the Luftwaffe and the Heer. Altogether they formed the Wehrmacht which in 1940 was the most efficient fighting force the world had ever seen. By 1942 the tide had begun to turn and the men of the once mighty Wehrmacht fought in vain at Stalingrad, El Alamein, Monte Cassino, Caen and Berlin. These are the U-boat men, the Panzer crews and the air aces. This is military history at its best and most enlightening as told from primary sources. Written by Emmy award winning author Bob Carruthers, this unique publication documents the primary accounts of many of those who fought in Hitler's army.

Naive, Irish and seventeen years old, Bridget Dowling fell in love with Adolf Hitler's dashing half-brother, Alois. They left Ireland to marry and settled in England, in Liverpool, in 1910. This revealing and intimate account of Bridget's relationship with the Hitler family makes fascinating reading. Adolf's 'missing year' is plausibly accounted for: in 1912 Alois and Bridget meet the future Fuhrer off the train at Liverpool's Lime Street station. He is dirty, disheveled and ill and is a difficult guest in their home for several months. Bridget's marriage breaks down and Alois disappears; at eighteen, their son, William Patrick, decides to renew contact with his German uncle. Tension builds up when he makes several visits to Germany, finally deciding to seek employment there from 'Uncle Adolf'. Bridget follows him to Berlin in 1937. Her meeting with the Fuhrer at his idyllic residence in the Bavarian alps show just how far the 'spineless' young man of 1912 has changed. How she, and later her son, manage to escape the watchful eyes of Adolf and his bodyguards, makes this a gripping adventure story. These Memoirs cast new light on Adolf Hitler and his immediate family, particularly his extraordinary relationship with his niece. The unusually informal photographs portray a new side of the Fuhrer.--Page 2 of cover.

Living life to the full means offering trust as well as embracing vulnerability. That delicate balance was the pivot of Micheal O'Siadhail's previous book of poems, A Fragile City. In this new collection, he measures how a life can be lived in the intensity of 'our double time', alert to its threats, ambiguities and frailties, seizing pivotal moments and tracing the intricacies of families and friendships. Our Double Time ranges through tradition and renewal, lovemaking and gratitude, sufferings and secrets, birth and death, music and abundance. Like O'Siadhail's earlier work in Hail! Madam Jazz, these new poems resonate with a jazz-like vitality, both light and dark. Each poem is a motif expanding into movements that culminate in this glorious symphony in double time.

In 1945, amidst the ruins of a bomb-damaged German home a tattered book, Deutschland Erwache, was recovered as a souvenir by a British soldier. This rare and invaluable primary resource now forms the basis of The Rise of Hitler Illustrated, which is a photographic record of Hitlers' rise to power from when he was born in 1889, as he took over the hearts and minds of the German people, and his eventual arrival at the top.??The original book is typical of the propaganda of the time, with the obvious non-critical acceptance of everything that Adolf Hitler was and what he stood for. It attempts to present him as a peaceloving man, who wanted nothing other than quiet in his 'beloved Alps', who dearly loved children and was kind to all. But as we all know, the truth was completely different. He was a man who, despite his unbounded evilness, was able to assert limitless power over a nation before creating maximum misery for millions.??When found, the original book was divest of its cover and all the worse for wear, but Trevor Salisbury has gone to every effort to salvage some of the images, the result a fresh and new perspective that sheds light on Hitler's control of Germany. It is a welcome addition to Pen & Sword's highly acclaimed Images of War series.
