Crisis In Spain
Author: John Mancini
Publisher: iUniverse
ISBN: 0595272932
Category : Fiction
Languages : en
Pages : 316
Book Description
Antonus Paullus faces personal tragedy caused by the greed and double-dealing of Romans, Carthaginians, and Spaniards. The master spy fights his personal demons as he struggles with grief on his path to maturity. The novel deals with the period from 215 to 208 BC when Rome fought Carthage and Hannibal. During this period Antonus Paullus finds love, builds a family, and looses a boyhood friend to patriotism. He battles to lead Rome out of a crisis in the middle of the brutal and barbaric conflict that was to last sixteen years. The young spy helps break Carthage's hold on Spain, thus depriving them of the mineral wealth they needed to pay their mercenaries. This was a turning point in Rome's war of attrition. Crisis in Spain is the second in a series of three fast moving, action packed, fictional stories, which describe the adventures of the young master spy Antonus Paullus during the Second Punic War. The Paullus family has a long-standing contract with the Senate as the Republic's spies wherever there are Roman interests. Actual events, battles, and individuals from the Second Punic War are used as the framework for these novels.

Book Description
'Excellent ... a raw and visceral, bird's-eye view of the action from the men who were there' The Times This is the story of a tank regiment: the 2nd Fife and Forfar Yeomanry in the Second World War. Raw and visceral personal recollections from the men themselves recall some of the most dramatic and horrific scenes imaginable - the sheer nerve-wracking tension of serving in highly inflammable Sherman tanks, the sudden impact of German shells, the desperate scramble to bail out, and the awful fate of those who couldn't. Even if they made it out of the tank, they were still vulnerable to being brutally cut down by German infantry. Yet amidst these horrors, the humanity of these men shines through. And as we follow in their tracks, through letters, diaries and eye-witness accounts, they will change how we think about tank warfare forever.
