Al Murray Volgorde van de boeken

Focusing on the pivotal events of September 19, 1944, Al Murray presents a fresh perspective on the Battle of Arnhem, often viewed as a doomed endeavor. By immersing readers in the experiences of British soldiers without the hindsight of historical outcomes, the narrative reveals the complexities of decision-making and the squandered opportunities of that fateful day. Murray's detailed storytelling captures the initial optimism and the subsequent despair, illustrating how a single day dramatically altered the course of World War II.

Who invented the pub quiz? The British, of course! Who doesn't enjoy a rousing question-and-answer session over a pint and some scratchings? Indeed, what higher calling is there than standing in the pub loudly demanding answers to difficult questions like 'd'you want some?' Here, for your pleasure, Britain's leading pub landlord, The Pub Landlord, presents the finest collection of facts imaginable. Enjoy the attention of friends and strangers by revealing how many James Bonds there were, how many times the French have capitulated and exactly how long those pickled eggs have been in that jar on the bar. The ladies love a well-read man and this book will give you the tools needed to impress her (don't worry, answers are included). None of your French-type philosophical musings here. No, this is a proper quiz for the Great British Public. In a public house. Or your living room.
