Tommy - The British Soldier on the Western Front 1914-1918 - Richard Holmes.

I'm sure many of you will recall his BBC series Battlefields, War Walks and The Western Front.

Professor of Military History and Security Studies at Cranfield University.

An ex Territorial Brigadier as well . So he knew of what he wrote.

Flying Colours - C.S.Forester. Carrying on with the Hornblower books.

 

[Harry Wilson's tackle]

Given that I already have the next book on order (published later this year) I though I'd better start "The girl in the eagle's talons". A new writer (the third) for the Lisbeth Salander 'franchise'. This one is dark, bordering on the unpleasant, but I'm half way through and still engaged.

Zendurance
Shane Alton Eversfield

 

[Beach Hut]

The Hall of a Thousand Columns - Tim Mackintosh-Smith

 

[Biscuit]

Currently Ice Ghosts by Paul Watson. A fascinating look into the lost Franklin expedition.

Before that I read "Endurance" and "The Worst Journey in the World".

If exploration and daring real-life survival stories are your thing, I'd recommend them all. I'd start with "Endurance" though, one of the most incredible tales I've ever read. Ernest Shackleton really was the GOAT.

Next up, I'll treat myself to a guilty-pleasure reread an Alistair MacLean.
