Paul Torday's extraordinary and enchanting tale of
unexpected heroism and late-blooming love; of flying-fishing and
political spinning and of the triumph of hope in a cynical world.
When Dr Alfred Jones is asked to become involved in a project to
create a salmon river in the highlands of the Yemen, he rejects the
idea as absurd. But the proposal catches the eye of several senior
British politicians, who feel it might distract the media's attention
from the less welcome stories coming out of the Middle East. It's not
long before the wheels of government start spinning and the
publicity-savvy PM is talking about the project on television. Fred
finds himself forced to set aside his research and instead figure out
how to fly ten thousand salmon to a desert country...and persuade them
to swim there.

In Band of Brothers,
Stephen E. Ambrose pays tribute to the men of Easy Company, a crack
rifle company in the US Army. From their rigorous training in Georgia
in 1942 to the dangerous parachute landings on D-DAY and their
triumphant capture of Hitler's 'Eagle's Nest' in Berchtesgarden,
Ambrose tells the story of this remarkable company. Repentedly sent on
the toughest missions, these brave men fought, went hungry, froze and
dies in the services of their country.
