'There's a kindness in beating a man badly, and that kindness is based on correctness,' Chris Eubank March 2016: boxer Chris Eubank Jr punches his opponent, Nick Blackwell, into a coma. Blackwell dies momentarily, before being brought back to life. He remains in a coma for seven days. The boxing world is thrown into turmoil. In his corner, Junior's dad, Chris Sr., had been imploring his son to aim for the body. Was this a coach making a tactical change? Or was this a former boxer pleading with his son to show mercy? Twenty five years previously it had been Chris Sr. who had left his opponent Michael Watson with severe brain damage following a brutal encounter. Elliot Worsell was ringside, reporting as part of Blackwell's camp with exclusive access to both dressing rooms. A lifelong boxing fan and experienced journalist, what Worsell saw left him questioning himself and his sport. Blackwell survived, but in Dog Rounds Worsell goes in search of the men who have killed in the ring. In spending time with these pariahs, as well as taking some of them back to the venue in which their tragedy occurred, Worsell uncovers a story that is raw, unflinching and extraordinary. Dog Rounds asks, should these men feel culpable when tragedy occurs in the ring? Should they carry the burden? Should they be apologetic? And it asks, what is our responsibility as spectators, cheerleaders and rubberneckers?

"Round about Bar-le-Duc" by Susanne R. Day is a book about WWI as narrated by the war refugees. The author tells the story of his work and adventures in France. Instead of being a book about English women in France, it is mainly a book about French women in their own country, and therein lies its chief, if not its only claim to merit. Excerpt: "Relief Work in the War Zone. It did sound exciting. No wonder I volunteered, but, oh dear! great was the plenitude of my ignorance. I vaguely understood that we were to distribute clothes and rabbits, kitchen utensils, guano and other delectable necessaries to a stricken people, but not that we were to wear a uniform and that the uniform would be made "by post." If I had there might never have been a chapter to write nor a tale to tell."

Night in the Dogs Head is a historically-based novel of courage and sacrifice. American soldiers are committed to a war half-way around the world to preserve a nation from a takeover by a socialist tyrant. The policy that sent Americans to Asian battlefields was subsequently repudiated. For the next three years US Forces fought and died in a war their country no longer wanted to win. While American forces consistently won their battles and inflicted appalling casualties on their foe, a poorly informed and sensation-seeking media mislead the American public, conflicted politicians turned against the war, and the US submitted to a third-rate Asian nation. The novel is set in the political and military affairs of the time. It realistically presents the courage and dedication, the successes and the failures of the men who fought - not for principal, but to survive a war their nation didnt want to win. Friend and foe alike are followed to reveal who they were, how and why they fought. It is a story of the Vietnam War the way it was. At the center is a single undermanned American battalion destined to face a numerically-superior enemy whose orders are to, kill the Americans. After more than 58,000 Americans were killed in action, US forces were withdrawn without a single concession from the enemy. The units cited are real; the incidents and characters have been contrived to suit the story.
