The slow decline and death of a partner from dementia is traumatic. The burden of care over those last few years increases steadily. When death comes it is, surprisingly, a huge shock, even though long anticipated. This collection of poems charts that journey into darkness, until the beginnings of healing appear. It is a catalogue of the progress of illness, death and the subsequence inevitable grief. To the many men and women who have suffered the loss of a partner, the poems will strike a chord and help them to understand that they are not alone.

The Old and New Testaments of the Bible are the guiding light of the Holy Land for many people, as they immerse themselves in a rich tapestry of stories. The guide visits those ancient worlds and grapples with one unanswered question. What actually happened?   As he balances faith with facts whilst walking an historical tightrope, the guide admits that this book is a reflection of his own thoughts entirely and makes no attempt to prove his words but invites you, the reader, to decide.    MISGUIDED deftly weaves a gripping perspective with the added twist of an overactive imagination as the guide encounters many biblical and historical sagas, witnessing a reality so close to the narrative that even he becomes confused. Perhaps others have offered their own insights when walking his path, but if so, the guide has met none of them on his travels.    And of the future? Only time will tell, for that is the one road he has yet to walk. Â

The Brave Shall Inherit the Earth is the motto of the Rajputana Rifles, the oldest rifle regiment in the pre-World-War-Two Indian Army. It is a fitting epitaph to this remarkable young officer who commanded the mortar platoon in 3/6th Rajputana Rifles during the 14th Army's invasion of Burma in 1944. Denis O'Leary came from a family of soldiers; his father was also RajRif. Just out of officer training, a practicing Catholic, handsome, athletic, twenty years old, Denis joined 3/6th Rajputana Rifles on the eve of Field Marshal Slim's invasion of Burma in 1944. This book is the story of his Regiment in that Homeric engagement. It is also about the close friendships formed in war between a British officer and his Rajput and Punjabi 'Mussalman' soldiers. The Regiment 'had been fortunate in our introduction to war. It had been a gradual process.' Luckily Denis learnt quickly and by the time he came to his Kurukshetra - a decisive battle to hold Pear Hill against suicidal Japanese attacks during the Irrawaddy crossings - his mettle had been tested and forged. During this battle, in which he won his first Military Cross, he was badly wounded by shrapnel and evacuated back to India for the rest of the war, only re-joining his beloved battalion in pre-Independence Burma, which this account also covers. Denis O'Leary was a life-long soldier, he is a modest historian, he writes simply but eloquently. There are few books so hauntingly beautiful about something so savage as war.
