Denkt man an Theodor Fontane, dann denkt man an "Effi Briest" oder an seine "Wanderungen durch die Mark Brandenburg". Fast vergessen dagegen sind seine Erlebnisse als Kriegsreporter bei den preußischen Truppen. So wurde Fontane bei einer Reise 1870 durch das halb besetzte Frankreich verdächtigt, ein Spion zu sein, geriet in französische Kriegsgefangenschaft in Paris und wurde erst auf Intervention Bismarcks freigelassen. Anschaulich und facettenreich liest Matthias Ponnier aus den wenig bekannten Kriegstagebüchern des berühmten Romanciers.

Ein Glücksfall für die Historiker: Harry Graf Kessler (1868 - 1937) beschreibt das Zeitgeschehen im Jahr 1925. Die Ruhrbesetzung ist noch aktuell. Die Nationalisten gewinnen an Boden. die Monarchisten reintegrieren sich. Höhepunkt dieser Bewegung ist die Wahl Hindenburgs zum Reichspräsidenten. Dass die Rechte, so wie heute, schon damals keine Argumente sondern nur lautere Schreihälse und unlautere Methoden im politischen Wettbewerb haben, wird mehr als einmal beschrieben.

This is the diary of the author's tumultuous journey from childhood to adulthood. The road she has traveled has been full of many unexpected twists, turns, detours, and cliff-hangers. Her trip itinerary has included poverty, sickness, molestation, rejection, domestic violence, betrayals, divorces, single-parenthood, being a first lady, and many other treks. I believe that you will be captivated by the author's many excursions, some self-directed and some led by others, some good and some not so good.

When I was seventeen, I saw England win the football world cup! In fact, I saw every single game played at Wembley during the 1966 championships and still have match day tickets and memorabilia from those days. The significance of what I had witnessed at such a tender age has only recently begun to dawn on me as England struggle to try and recapture those halcyon days and the ever-increasing media hype never fails to dredge up memories of 1966 at every subsequent International football tournament.

Assata Olugbala Shakur is a former member of the Black Liberation Army (BLA), who was convicted of being an accomplice in the first-degree murder of State Trooper Werner Foerster during a shootout on the New Jersey Turnpike in 1973. Shakur was also the target of the FBI's COINTELPRO (counterintelligence program) directed against Black Power movement groups and activists.

Anne Frank is one of the most famous individuals of the 20th century for the worst possible reason. Joseph Stalin is often quoted as saying one death is a tragedy and a million is a statistic, and while plenty of people might argue with the sentiment expressed, there's no question that Anne Frank in many ways became the face of the Holocaust.

Born in 1875, the great German lyric poet Rainer Maria Rilke published his first collection of poems in 1898, and went on to become renowned for his delicate depiction of the workings of the human heart. Drawn by some sympathetic note in his poems, young people often wrote to Rilke with their problems and hopes. From 1903 to 1908, Rilke wrote a series of remarkable responses to a young, would-be poet on poetry and on surviving as a sensitive observer in a harsh world. Those letters, still a fresh source of inspiration and insight, are accompanied here by a chronicle of Rilke's life.

This diary is the fourth book written by me, a collection of 20 compositions representing the thought and certainties of our modern age. Tales about a not very distant past that could be identified with today's reality, the present not reviewed journalistically, people who do not have common public representations and too busy in a certain sense to think what they could never do, until what was taken away from them to not understand a contemporary good or evil.

Back by popular demand as the next installment of The Diaries of a Doorman series of books, Bouncers & Bravado is a further collection of true short stories based on the years that Armstrong has worked the doors in the UK and abroad.
