Drummer Boy on the Run by Erwin Wunderlich Pdf

DRUMMER BOY ON THE RUN is a story centered around the life of young James Beverley. His legendary 2nd Florida Regiment, a part of Lee’s Army, has just given up at Appomattox. For the Rebel soldiers, though, everything begins and ends with pride in their land. In James’ long march home, he meets Sally Stanard, a displaced nurse from Virginia. “Pappy” Tuttle is an aged soldier likewise now trying to find his place in a devastated South. They, along with James’ younger brother Henry, unwittingly become part of an elaborate scheme to hide Richmond’s gold and silver. To this day, uncertainty remains about the treasure’s final whereabouts as it crossed into Florida in May of 1865. Can the group outfox Union search parties, bandits, spies, and Confederate double-crossers? If so, they will become part of arguably the greatest wagon train exploit ever. Mesmerized as a child by elder’s stories of the Civil War, award-winning author and fifth-generation Floridian Erwin Wunderlich pens yet another novel about this tragic conflict. Authentic locales and settings, and relentless action and suspense, set the stage for treasure and treachery in his new thriller!

The Drummer Boy by Leon Garfield Pdf

'As far as the eye can see, scarlet men are marching . . . A rich and splendid company, but none more so than the drummer boy.' But a moment later, the sound of Charlie Samson's drum was swallowed in a wild thunder. The glorious scarlet troops had been ambushed. Men were dead and dying all around, and all the beauty was gone. All that was left was himself and his drum, and a few shady nightwalkers - cowards who came crawling from the ditches and knaves who scoured the dead for wealth . . .

The Tin Drum by Günter Grass Pdf

The greatest German novel since the end of World War II, The Tin Drum is the autobiography of Oskar Matzerath, thirty years old, detained in a mental hospital, convicted of a murder he did not commit. On the day of his third birthday, Oskar had "declared, resolved, and determined [to] stop right there, remain as I was, stay the same size, cling to the same attire" (striped pullover and patent-leather shoes). That same day Oskar receives his first tin drum, and from then on it is the means of his expression, allowing him to draw forth memories from the past as well as judgments about the horrors, injustices, and eccentricities he observes through the long nightmare of the Nazi era. As that era ebbs bloodily away, as drum succeeds drum, Oskar participates in the German postwar economic miracle -- working variously in the black market, as an artist's model, in a troupe of traveling musicians. With the onset of affluence and fame, Oskar decides to grow a few inches, only to develop a humpback. But despite his newfound status (and stature), Oskar remains haunted by the deaths of his parents, afflicted by his responsibility for past sins -- and so assumes guilt for a murder he did not commit as an act of atonement and an opportunity to find consolation.The rhythms of Oskar's drums are intricate and insistent, and they lead us, often by way of shocking fantasies, through the dark forest of German history. Through Oskar's piercing, outspoken voice and deformed little figure, through the imaginative distortion and exaggeration of historical experience, a pathetically hilarious yet startlingly true portrayal of the human situation comes into view.
