It was once the finest in London, but over the years, as the world around it has moved on at an ever more dizzying rate, the hotel has struggled to keep pace.

Book Description
Starting in the Late Middle Ages, the Fassbind family history spans across almost a millennium until present day. Family trees go back to the 14th century and serve as orientation. Images and illustrations of personalities show the exponents of the individual Fassbind generations. Postcards of the hotel palaces during the Belle Époque reflect the pioneering spirit of the family and honors from a wide range of European royalties represent its business success. Ancestors’ achievements and notable positions in politics and military once brought influence and prestige to the family. The aforementioned appears in the first part of the book («The Golden Age»). With the outbreak of World War I, the Belle Époque ended and turbulent times dawned upon the family. The hotel business, in particular, faced lean years. These lasted until the end of World War II and put a lot of strain upon the family enterprises. The family eventually found economic relief in post-war years. At the same time, however, rapid social and technical change arose, which also took a grip of the Fassbind family and their companies. Family members had to adapt and opened a new chapter with new life and business models. Throughout this period, family ties loosened, and some branches lost contact altogether. Others continued to cultivate their relationships and met each other on a variety of family gatherings. This is especially true for the descendants of the Fassbind family in Arth and Lugano, who kept in touch throughout the decades and corresponded frequently. The second part of the book («Changing Times») focuses on these two branches. The third part of the book («A New Beginning») addresses the latest development of the Fassbind branch in Vitznau. It is the starting point for the further development of my history and that of my siblings and cousins.

Book Description
In 2014, the US marks the 50th anniversary of the Gulf of Tonkin Resolution, the basis for the Johnson administration’s escalation of American military involvement in Southeast Asia and war against North Vietnam. Vietnam War Slang outlines the context behind the slang used by members of the United States Armed Forces during the Vietnam War. Troops facing and inflicting death display a high degree of linguistic creativity. Vietnam was the last American war fought by an army with conscripts, and their involuntary participation in the war added a dimension to the language. War has always been an incubator for slang; it is brutal, and brutality demands a vocabulary to describe what we don’t encounter in peacetime civilian life. Furthermore, such language serves to create an intense bond between comrades in the armed forces, helping them to support the heavy burdens of war. The troops in Vietnam faced the usual demands of war, as well as several that were unique to Vietnam – a murky political basis for the war, widespread corruption in the ruling government, untraditional guerilla warfare, an unpredictable civilian population in Vietnam, and a growing lack of popular support for the war back in the US. For all these reasons, the language of those who fought in Vietnam was a vivid reflection of life in wartime. Vietnam War Slang lays out the definitive record of the lexicon of Americans who fought in the Vietnam War. Assuming no prior knowledge, it presents around 2000 headwords, with each entry divided into sections giving parts of speech, definitions, glosses, the countries of origin, dates of earliest known citations, and citations. It will be an essential resource for Vietnam veterans and their families, students and readers of history, and anyone interested in the principles underpinning the development of slang.
