Hardcover. In most regimental histories, the band, if mentioned at all, is likely to be relegated to an appendix, possibly showing a bar or two of the regimental march. Yet it is an indisputable fact that the band is actually that part of the regiment which is most frequently in the public eye. Indeed few public events seem complete without the participation of a military band. Here, at last, is a comprehensive history of one of the oldest and probably the most famous military band of all time, the Band of The Life Guards. George Lawn, himself a former bandsman, traces its colourful history from the return of King Charles II to England in 1660 down to the present day. The book encompasses every aspect of the Band's many duties and includes biographies of all known bandmasters together with numerous illustrations of their Drum Horses. It may come as a surprise to learn how many bandsmen have later achieved musical distinction in civilian life, not least Sir Colin Davis, who has written the foreword. Good condition in good price-clipped dj. Illustrated with colour and B/W photos t/out text. 194pp. ISBN 850524547. …

"Sales/posting to the USA suspended." Hard cover dust wrapper, 196pp, b&w plates. Light wear to edge of dw/boards; a very good copy. In April 1943 Lady Be Good, an American Liberator bomber, vanished into the night while returning to base at Benghazi, Libya, following a mission to Naples, Italy. All attempts to find the aircraft and her crew proved unsuccessful, and they became just one more casualty of the war. Fifteen years later, oil geologists spotted the bomber's remarkably well-preserved remains from the air some 400 miles southeast of Benghazi. Reports to American and British authorities provoked no interest. The investigation and reconstruction of the ill-fated mission was left to geologist Don Sheridan, who led a survey party to the plane and eventually located the crew and evidence of their desperate attempt to survive in the forbidding desert environment.Fascinated by rumors of the tragedy, Mario Martinez spent years attempting to find out exactly what happened. His account of the mystery is riveting. An intriguing piece of detective work, the story he has put together tells of the crew's courageous efforts to save themselves.…
