Flesh in Armour by Leonard Mann Pdf

Drawn in part from the authors combat experience in France during WW I, the novel is an exploration of the lives of soldiers in the Australian Imperial Force from the Ypres campaign in 1917 until just before the Armistice. The plot follows three soldiers in the same battalionCharl Bentley, a naive and handsome raw recruit eager for combat; Frank Jeffreys, a schoolteacher whose intellect and anxiety have led to disillusionment; and Jim Blount, a resourceful and courageous warrior-hero who remains undaunted by battle despite being wounded. The novel bears an unmistakable Australian point of view, particularly in its wry sense of humor in spite of the dark subject matter and in its vehement disdain for British commanders who viewed the AIF volunteers as disposable.

Anzac, The Unauthorised Biography by Carolyn Holbrook Pdf

Raise a glass for an Anzac. Run for an Anzac. Camp under the stars for an Anzac. Is there anything Australians won’t do to keep the Anzac legend at the centre of our national story? But standing firm on the other side of the Anzac enthusiasts is a chorus of critics claiming that the appetite for Anzac is militarising our history and indoctrinating our children. So how are we to make sense of this struggle over how we remember the Great War? Anzac, the Unauthorised Biography cuts through the clamour to provide a much-needed historical perspective on the battle over Anzac. It traces how, since 1915, Australia’s memory of the Great War has declined and surged, reflecting the varied and complex history of the Australian nation itself. Most importantly, it asks why so many Australians persist with the fiction that the nation was born on 25 April 1915.

Big-noting by Robin Gerster Pdf

An engagingly readable, entertaining yet scholarly survey of the Australian war mythology. An adventurous, but meticulous study . . . this is a book that bayonets a too-long-held myth. - Judges' Report, 1988 Age Book of the Year . . . the most incisive, comprehensive and controversial account so far to appear of Australian literature of war . . . carries out a neglected task of literary and cultural history. - Peter Pierce Age . . . a brave argument and a brave book . . . a beautifully written book . . . you'll never feel quite the same about Anzac or Gallipoli again. - Judith Smart Victorian Historical Journal Gerster's central heresy . . . deserves to be taken very seriously indeed. The book should be bought at the shop rather than burned at the stake. - Mark Thomas Canberra Times

The French Collection by Kim Louise Clarke Pdf

Kim left for a vacation in Paris with the singular hope that she would not pass out on the banks of the Seine from a migraine headache. This fear emphasized the fact that even during the best times of life—like a trip to Paris—we need God by our side. In this series of devotions, the reader travels through Paris with the author on her vacation and her journey of faith. Six days are spent exploring some of the city’s lesser known sites in anticipation of meeting up with her daughter for another three days of sightseeing. Together reader and author become familiar with the fascinating history and culture of the city of Paris. Certain moments stand out above all others from the vacation. They are more intense, or more amusing, sometimes more embarrassing, or even more fearful. Kim has written about these moments, developed them around the sights and history of Paris, wrapped them in Scripture turned them into The French Collection.

Faith's Journey Confronts Obstacles by R. C. Jette Pdf

Many Christians lack understanding of faith’s journey, how God’s soldiers are armored, and how to be prepared for spiritual warfare. Little knowledge in this area makes many go into battle unprepared, and they lose fight after fight. God’s soldiers are doing spiritual warfare with natural (fleshly) means, which causes them to be beaten and confused, and (as Job) they sit believing that God has forsaken them. This book is not a repeat of Storms Are Faith’s Workout: Preparing Christians for Spiritual Ambush. It will build upon the truths in that book to help strengthen God’s soldiers to go to battle dressed in the full armor of God. There are no shortcuts to overcoming in this life, and many obstacles must be faced. In the pages of this book, God’s soldiers will gain the understanding of how faith works and the necessity for God’s armor in facing whatever obstacle the devil has put in their path. When the book is finished, God’s soldiers will have confidence in God and in his armor. They will be emboldened to stand firm, confront any obstacle, and overcome it by faith!
