Published to coincide with the opening of the new Museum of The Corps of Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers in October, this is an edited collection of articles unearthed in the regimental archives. Modern soldiers depend on their equipment, from the weapons in their hands and the tanks that support them, to the communications equipment that connect them to their commanders. Formed in 1942, the Corps of Royal Electrical and Mechanical Engineers (REME) have maintained the British Army's equipment and kept their machines moving for nearly 75 years. REME have been involved in every single operation undertaken by the British Army since World War II, and the Corps has some fascinating stories to tell. This is a collection of some of the fascinating accounts unearthed in the archives and written about in the The Craftsman (the Corps Magazine) and The REME Journal (the publication of The REME Institution) – including the Birth of REME; Operation Grapple – UK Nuclear Testing on Christmas Island; and the Mystery of Mussolini's Boots. It provides unique insights into inspirational deeds and bravery and good-humoured fortitude that have characterised the British Army through the ages. All profits from the book's sale will go to the REME Benevolent Fund and SSAFA, the Armed Forces charity.

The official companion to the Emmy-winning Netflix drama chronicling the reign of Queen Elizabeth II, and starring Claire Foy and John Lithgow, The Crown by Peter Morgan, featuring additional historical background and beautifully reproduced archival photos and show stills Elizabeth Mountbatten never expected her father to die so suddenly, so young, leaving her with a throne to fill and a global institution to govern. Crowned at twenty-five, she was already a wife and mother as she began her journey towards becoming a queen. As Britain lifted itself out of the shadow of war, the new monarch faced her own challenges. Her mother doubted her marriage; her uncle-in-exile derided her abilities; her husband resented the sacrifice of his career and family name; and her rebellious sister embarked on a love affair that threatened the centuries-old links between the Church and the Crown. This is the story of how Elizabeth II drew on every ounce of resolve to ensure that the Crown always came out on top. Written by the show’s historical consultant, royal biographer Robert Lacey, and filled with beautifully reproduced archival photos and show stills, The Crown: The Official Companion: Volume 1 adds expert and in-depth detail to the events of the series, painting an intimate portrait of life inside Buckingham Palace and 10 Downing Street. Here is Elizabeth II as we’ve never seen her before.

Coronations are the grandest of all state occasions. This is the first comprehensive in-depth study of the music that was performed at British coronations from 1603 to the present, encompassing the sixteen coronations that have taken place in Westminster Abbey and the last two Scottish coronations. Range describes how music played a crucial role at the coronations and how the practical requirements of the ceremonial proceedings affected its structure and performance. The programme of music at each coronation is reconstructed, accompanied by a wealth of transcriptions of newly discovered primary source material, revealing findings that lead to fresh conclusions about performance practices. The coronation ceremonies are placed in their historical context, including the political background and the concept of invented traditions. The study is an invaluable resource not only for musicologists and historians, but also for performers, providing a fascinating insight into the greatest of all Royal events.

I have no problem with what people believe. I believe our governments when people want to change our way of live, because of what they believe. As a Minister of the Gospel of Our Lord Jesus in this wonderful, peaceful Christian civilisation with a Christian heritage and a blessed way of life, Our Lord said, “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life? “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labour or spin. Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendour was dressed like one of these. If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you – you of little faith? So do not worry, saying 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear? For the pagans run after all these things and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. (Matthew 6:25-34 - NIV) Remember what Jesus said about today, “So don't worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will bring its own worries. Today's trouble is enough for today.” We pray our politicians will be faithful 'each day' to punish wickedness, vice and treason and honour our Christian heritage and way of life. I am writing this book with great concern about the direction of our wonderful country. The constant media reports about Britain, France, Belgium, Holland, Denmark, Sweden, Italy, Greece, Africa and even now the United States of America to start with, are very disturbing. Remember 9/11. And just recently the killing of a priest in his church in France! Where is the love and the peace? As a student of history I was amazed at the excellent works by authors John F Kennedy and Louise Shaw concerning the events in Europe 1932 - 1939. Kennedy wrote “Why England Slept” whereas Shaw examined how the political elite at the time were ineffective. Sir Winston Churchill, who is one of my heroes and whose grave I visited in Bladon, wrote a book “While England Slept.” Hence the title of my book, “While Australia Sleeps”. I will repeat some of these comments later in this research work for emphasis – simply because Australia is asleep to the infiltration of Islam since 1966. Much of the media reports I would love to use are prohibited due to copyright restrictions – a form of censorship. To me another form of discrimination against true Australians – those who love our country, our system of government – OUR LAWS – which others are ignoring and would wish to overturn. We are the ones being discriminated against since 1966. Hopefully this will be explained later in the case – The Two Dannys. Claims of racial hatred go both ways – or do they? Most true Australians are not racist but PATRIOTS! We are grateful to our forefathers. Our forefathers cared for our welfare and sacrificed their youth and lives; some immigrants care for our welfare? The President of the group to which I belong said Denmark may have 5% Muslim population but they use 40% of the welfare budget. So, I was thinking about the title of this book - Firstly: “Why Australia Slept” Then: “Why is Australia Still Sleeping?” Also: “While Australia Slept” But now: “While Australia Sleeps”. So, what's happening? As a Christian Civilization with Christian Heritage and way of life, we are blessed in this wonderful country Australia.
