"Born in battle, Peter White's journal is one of the most extraordinary stories to come out of the World War II. As a 24-year-old lieutenant in the King's Own Scottish Borderers, Peter kept an unauthorized journal of his regiment's advance through the Low Countries and into Germany in the closing months of the war in Europe. Forbidden by his commanding officer from doing so for security reasons, Peter's boyhood habit of diary keeping had become an obsession too strong to shake off. In this graphic evocation of a soldier at war, the images he records are not for the faint hearted. There are heroes aplenty within its pages, but there are also disturbing insights into the darker sides of humanity - the men who broke under the strain and who ran away; the binge drinking which occasionally rendered the whole platoon unable to fight; the looting, the rape, and the callous disregard for human life that happens when death is a daily companion. Hidden away for more than 50 years, this is a rare opportunity to read an authentic account of the horrors of war experienced by a British soldier in the greatest conflict of the 20th century.".…

It is the human story from 10,000 BC: a story of dramatic climatic change and equally dramatic adaption - the domestication of wild plants and animals. The development of agriculture led to massive increases in population size, the building of urban centers, craft specialization, social stratification, and long-distance trade networks. The book covers Europe, New Guinea and the lowland Maya farmers, from Africa to southern and eastern Asia and the New World. This beautifully illustrated book introduces the latest archaeological findings - and their modern-day implications. Shows the human face of the archaeological record, and helps us to understand society, culture, art, and religion. (Pages 207 to 227, titled 'Australia - The Different Continent', discusses Aboriginal prehistory.). …
