This book makes it possible to comprehend, via the trench naming, the daily life in the trenches, the vast range of weaponry and the lethal nature of the titanic battles. Names such as Lovers Lane, Doleful Post, Cyanide Trench and Gangrene Alley are as revealing as any history. While based upon the British trenches, there is a comparison with French and German practice. While a poignant concordance of suffering and an intriguing study of language itself, this book is also a vital research tool for military and family historians.

New York Public Library Book for the Teenager New York Public Library Book to Remember PSLA Young Adult Top 40 Nonfiction Titles of the Year "Engaging...a lively, informative compendium of facts, theories, and musings."-Michiko Kakutani, New York Times Behold the rat, dirty and disgusting! Robert Sullivan turns the lowly rat into the star of this most perversely intriguing, remarkable, and unexpectedly elegant New York Times bestseller. Love them or loathe them, rats are here to stay-they are city dwellers as much as (or more than) we are, surviving on the effluvia of our society. In Rats, the critically acclaimed bestseller, Robert Sullivan spends a year investigating a rat-infested alley just a few blocks away from Wall Street. Sullivan gets to know not just the beast but its friends and foes: the exterminators, the sanitation workers, the agitators and activists who have played their part in the centuries-old war between human city dweller and wild city rat. Sullivan looks deep into the largely unrecorded history of the city and its masses-its herds-of-rats-like mob. Funny, wise, sometimes disgusting but always compulsively readable, Rats earns its unlikely place alongside the great classics of nature writing. With an all-new Afterword by the author

A devil walks among us. Neither Satan nor Beelzebub, this is no fallen angel. This is The Rat. It could be any city, any place, any time. It just happens to be here. And now. A serial killer preys on the lonely and the vulnerable. Known only as The Rat, it stalks its victims in the shadows and alleyways of urban decay, selecting them - always female, always vulnerable, always flawed - with care. And it kills in increasingly horrific and inventive ways. When a giant pharmaceutical corporation falls victim to industrial espionage at the same time as a member of its staff, Patsy MaGill, receives chilling and cryptic taunts from The Rat, the company's CEO, Melissa Beecham, becomes convinced the two acts are linked. She enlists the help of Patsy's trusted friend, Saul Benton, and oddball IT guru Cyrus Dilley, to trap The Rat. As the unlikely modern-day musketeers close in on the killer, a dark realisation dawns - the realisation that the answer lies uncomfortably close to home. It may even lie among them. In a mind-blowing, thrilling twist, the hunters become the hunted. 'More breathtaking, jaw-dropping twists' 'Serial killer thriller meets whodunit' 'Spine-chilling finale' 'A destination worth the journey. Stunning climax' 'Do not read alone without paramedics on speed-dial.'

In this unusual spin on the classic spy novel, murder strikes from our wartime pasts... Iraq War veteran Sam Blackman with his prosthetic leg and his no-nonsense private eye partner Nakayla Robertson love their investigations which always carry a thread from the past—and they love each other. An interracial couple in the new South, the Asheville, NC, pair has surrounded themselves with a terrific support team including an unorthodox lawyer and a veteran cop. They deploy humor both to bind them together and to deflect insults. Plus, it helps deal with the tragedies their work uncovers. Such a tragedy interrupts a meeting between the PIs and the neighboring law office when a body is unearthed from the grounds of the nearby Pisgah Astronomical Research Institute. During the Cold War it monitored developing space programs. Today it plays a vital role gathering weather and climate data. The body has been in the ground a long time. Why would its discovery spark off a new murder in Asheville's mountain music scene, the victim found amid the garbage of dark, dank Rat Alley? She was the fiancée of the man murdered long ago. But surely this case is more than a domestic drama playing out over time.... The Blackman Agency Investigations excel at merging past and present, bringing little-known history to light, and are perfect for fans of James Lee Burke, Stephen Mack Jones, Margaret Maron, and Robert B. Parker.

"Born in 1937 in rural Tallapoosa, Georgia, to poor, uneducated black parents, young Norris faced bleak prospects. Fleeing the Deep South to escape unbearable conditions, his family initially took refuge with relatives in the housing projects of the inner city of Louisville. Their next residence was a single room "in the rear of a juke joint." Ultimately, a ramshackle, three-room place in Eddy Alley "was, to me, a dream come true, a home of our own. That's where we dug in."--Dust jacket.

Surprisingly funny and compulsively readable, Rats is an unlikely account of a year spent in a garbage-strewn alley in lower Manhattan. Sullivan spends the year with a notebook and night-vision goggles, hunting for fabled rat-kings, trapping a rat of his own, and trying (and failing) to conquer his own fear of rats. He meets the exterminators, garbage men and civic activists who play their part in the centuries-old war between human city-dweller and wild city rat. He travels to a bizarre Midwestern conference on rats that brings together the leading experts on rat history, behaviour, and control (did you know that one pair of rats can produce 15,000 descendants in a year? That rats' teeth are harder than steel?). In the process, he discovers the many ways in which rats' lives mirror those of humans. Sullivan's unusual and absorbing book earns a place alongside the classics of travel writing.
