People better qualified than me can answer you on the Centre's work - though they might choose not to, considering the tone you are adopting.* Indirectly, however, the memory of your great-grandfather's achievements can best be kept by works (in the realm of books) which discuss his time and his action during that time in a scholarly fashion - which I believe will be the case in all four. In case you were confusing my IB Tauris message with that on Robert Hardy and the young : I also believe that good works on television and the cinema are ideal to arouse interest in historic figures like your great-grandfather in a generation which was brought up on these media, as opposed to books. Best wishes, A. Capet *People of my generation (i.e. "old" people) were brought up on a principle which would no doubt make many laugh today : "Respect your elders and betters". You obviously believe that you great name makes you number among the "betters" - but please do not forget the other part of the phrase. Please also meditate the odium that your great-uncle Randolph generated by not respecting either. It would be disastrous for you if you followed his arrogant path. -------------------------------------------------- From: "Jonathan Sandys" <[email protected]> Sent: Sunday, August 22, 2010 7:04 PM To: "ChurchillChat" <[email protected]> Subject: [ChurchillChat] Re: IB Tauris forthcoming books of interest > Please could you explain why the subject of this original discussion > has changed? > > On Aug 22, 4:53 am, "Antoine Capet" <[email protected]> wrote: >> A few days ago, I received an electronic copy of the latest IB Tauris >> 2010-2011 catalogue: >> >> www.ibtauris.com >> >> They have a number of titles in the pipeline which might interest List >> Members (all are planned for the >> spring of 2011) : >> >> ATTLEE'S WAR >> World War II and the >> Making of a Labour >> Leader >> Robert Crowcroft, >> University of Leeds >> 320 PAGES 216 X 134MM MARCH 2011 >> 9781848852860 HARDBACK 56.50 >> TAURIS ACADEMIC STUDIES >> INTERNATIONAL LIBRARY OF TWENTIETH >> CENTURY HISTORY >> >> ALTERNATIVES TO APPEASEMENT >> Neville Chamberlain and Hitler's >> Germany >> 320 PAGES 216 X 134MM ILLUSTRATED APRIL 2011 >> 9781848853775 HARDBACK 59.50 >> TAURIS ACADEMIC STUDIES >> INTERNATIONAL LIBRARY OF TWENTIETH CENTURY >> HISTORY,VOL. 42 >> >> BRITAIN AND THE DEFEATED >> FRENCH >> From Occupation to >> Liberation, 1940-1944 >> Peter Mangold >> 288 PAGES 234 X 156MM APRIL 2011 >> 9781848854314 HARDBACK 18.99 >> >> CHURCHILL AND COMPANY >> Rivals and Alliances in >> War and Peace >> David Dilks >> University of Leeds >> 288 PAGES 234 X 156MM ILLUSTRATED MAY 2011 >> 9781848857186 HARDBACK 20.00 >> >> A.
