Historic tales to take your breathe away

Every so often we readers come face to face with an incontrovertible truth: Holidays aren't long enough for people who care to read. Look at some of the titles in this history category and I think you must agree.

The airman has not been allowed to hold his undisputed sway in military operations for long. Desperate situations demand drastic remedies and already considerable and illuminating ingenuity is being displayed to baffle and mislead the scout of the skies. It is a somewhat curious and noteworthy fact, that the Germans were among the first to realise the scope of the airman's activities, and the significance of their relation to the conveyance of intimate information and the direction of artillery fire. Consequently, they now spare no effort to convey illusory information ... Aeroplanes and Digibles of War Chapter xiii. Tricks and ruses to Baffle the Airman

I'm so excited about this collection of more than 1,200 titles that I am uploading them here on eBookTrove-dot-com long before I can glance through even a half dozen of them.

Just look at some of these titles as I code them. There are some fantastic stories among them.

What about Abraham Lincoln and the Union - A Chronicle of the Embattled North? What could this be about - Account of a Tour in Normandy Vol I?

Take this, A-Bombing of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, for instance. Would you ever be quite the same again if you absorbed the details therein?

If US politics is your thing - and the way the world is going, perhaps it ought to be - what about A Compilation of the Messages and Papers of the Presidents? It was written between 4th March 1857 to March 1861.

Here are some presidential words from December 1857: 'Deplorable, however, as may be our present financial condition, we may yet indulge in bright hopes for the future.

'No other nation has ever existed which could have endured such violent expansions and contractions of paper credits without lasting injury; yet the buoyancy of youth, the energies of our population, and the spirit which never quails before difficulties will enable us soon to recover from our present financial embarrassments, and may even occasion us speedily to forget the lesson which they have taught.'

A touch of deja vu, perhaps?

This one interests me, too, Aeroplanes and Dirigibles of War, particularly as my father worked on Spitfires. Just taste that word dirigbles. Imagine trying to explain to a dirigible pilot that before long, the sky would be full of jets, and soon people would fly off for holidays thousands of miles away - and expect to be back a week later, and on time.

The world moves at a frantic rate, and some of the books here - histories, narratives, accounts - by humans long in their graves will take you into the most amazing scenes.

The books in this category are formatted for Sony fans - epubs. If you have a different reader, just download the open source program, Calibre, and change the format quickly and easily for whatever eReader you use.

Grab a hundred of these stories and tell the boss you need a few months off. Happy reading.
