DOWNLOAD EBOOKThis highly regarded war memoir was a best seller in both Japan and the United States during the 1960s and has long been treasured by historians for its insights into the Japanese side of the surface war in the Pacific. The author was a survivor of more than one hundred sorties against the Allies and was known throughout Japan as the "Unsinkable Captain." A hero to his countrymen, Capt. Hara exemplified the best in Japanese surface commanders: highly skilled (he wrote the manual on torpedo warfare), hard driving, and aggressive. Moreover, he maintained a code of honor worthy of his samurai grandfather, and, as readers of this book have come to appreciate, he was as free with praise for American courage and resourcefulness as he was critical of himself and his senior commanders.

DOWNLOAD EBOOKFrom an award-winning author, a historical novel inspired by the life of a Croatian mercenary in seventeenth-century England. In the chaotic days of the early 1600s, Carlo Fantom, a Central European who spoke thirteen languages, would gladly accept payment to fight, no matter the country or the cause—battling and brutalizing his victims whether he was on the side of the king or his enemies in the English Civil War, for the Christians against the Turks or the Turks against the Christians. Written in the form of a memoir, this imaginative biographical novel weaves the historical facts that are known about Captain Fantom with a dramatic and action-filled portrayal of his adventures and misadventures, both alone and with his band of warriors, chosen for their military prowess and moral depravity. “Reginald Hill’s stories must certainly be among the best now being written.” —The Times Literary Supplement
