Based on first-person accounts as well as military records, this book tells the story of those members of the Navajo Nation who served a unique role in the United States military during the Second World War.The Navajo Code Talkers saved potentially, thousands of lives with their unique talent and background, selflessly serving a nation which has not always served them well.
This book contains 8 autographs of Navajo Code Talkers. The six autographs on the title page are: Jack Jones, Alfred Newman, Alfred Peaches, Robert Walley, Albert Smith, and Bill Toledo., The seventh autograph beneath the introduction is that of Kee Etsicitty, and the eighth autograph on page 103 is also that of Private Etsicitty beneath his photo.
With these eight autographs, this book is a one-of-a-kind memory of a group of men who made a unique contribution toward ending the Second World War.

Description:
Virtually unknown in the English-speaking world, the Battle of Cherkassy (also known as the Korsun Pocket) still stirs controversy in both the former Soviet Union and in Germany. The culmination of years of research and survivor interviews, Hell's Gate is a riveting hour by hour and day by day account of this desperate struggle analyzed on a tactical level through maps and military transcripts, as well as on a personal level, through the words of the enlisted men and officers who risked the roaring waters of the Gniloy Tickich to avoid certain death at the hands of their Soviet foe.

Boston: Houghton Mifflin Co., 1953. 1st Edition. Hardcover. This is the second volume of the U.S. first "Definitive" edition, only printing of Churchill's war speeches. During his long public life, Winston Churchill played many roles worthy of historical note - member of Parliament for more than half a century, distinguished soldier and war correspondent, author of scores of books, ardent social reformer, combative cold warrior, Nobel Prize winner. But more than anything else, it was Winston Churchill's leadership during the Second World War that made him a preeminent historical figure. Of Churchill, Edward R. Murrow said: "He mobilized the English language and sent it into battle." Between 1941 and 1946, Churchill's war speeches were published in seven individual volumes in both British and U.S. editions. In 1952, during Churchill's second premiership, the British publisher - Cassell - reissued the War Speeches as a new, "Definitive" three-volume British edition. This U.S. edition was issued in…
