‎War 39/45‎

‎Licata Giulia‎

‎Solo per te‎

‎brossura "Voglio "cantare" l'amore, quell'amore che cambia la vita, che determina le scelte, che ti solleva e ti abbatte, quello che si perde o è ricambiato, quello che trasforma il colore dei giorni! Non so, se ancora, qualcuno ci crede, io, purtroppo o per fortuna, si, ancora continuo a pensare che esiste. Nella mia ingenuità, mi illudo, l'ho rincorso e lo rincorro, e mi sono talvolta persa in vie oscure, nelle quali, infine, nel fondo più fondo, ho trovato con fatica la luce... così, in questa continua ricerca, ho scritto ed ho raccontato, i miei sentimenti e le mie emozioni, le mie illusioni e le delusioni, le speranze ed i sogni di una donna che non ancora si è arresa ad una vita senza amore, che ancora tiene aperto il suo cuore, che ha voglia di sentirlo battere, di sentirlo vivo, perché penso che nulla può darti più gioia di un abbraccio sentito, di una parola sussurrata, della dolcezza di un bacio!".‎

‎Licciardi Francesco‎

‎Anime tra le stelle‎

‎brossura Seduto su una panchina, al cospetto del sole al tramonto, un anziano signore di nome Marco, si ritrova a ripercorrere nella propria mente, gli attimi che lo hanno portato a vivere il destino, che la vita stessa gli ha riservato. Nella Palermo degli anni novanta, arte, amicizia e passione, si fondono in un intreccio di eventi che lo condurranno sulla strada del successo artistico e alla scoperta dell'amore eterno.‎

‎New York 1945 Time. Pictorial stiff wrappers full issue 8 8 black & white photographs 4 page article very clean and & firm example 26.5 x 35.5 cm. FIRST & ONLY RARE EDITION . . . SUPERB ARTICLE ON "PAPPY BOYINGTON" COMMANDER OF THE . . . A BASTARD MARINE FIGHTER SQUADRON CALLED THE "BLACK SHEEP" . . HE WAS A FORMER "A.V.G." FIGHTER PILOT & "FLYING TIGER" . . WHO FLEW UNDER COMMAND OF GENERAL CLAIRE CHENNAULT . . Boyington served as a volunteer in the famous "A.V.G." "AMERICAN VOLUNTEER GROUP" later known as the "FLYING TIGERS" of Burma & China before Pearl Harbor. He was the the highest ace of the Marine Corps with 28 confirmed kills of Japanese aircraft. He is a five times ace and a half ! . He flew combat fighter missions until 1943 when he went back to the Marines and commanded a group of U.S. Marine misfit pilots. Boyington was also a misfit and was always in trouble or conflict where ever he was stationed. . In 1943 given his new command on Rabaul island he assembled a group of rejects misfits and unwanted into a fierce fighter pilot squadron of fierce Aces. In 86 days of combat they shot down 96 Japanese Imperial Air Force aircraft ! The highest number of any squadron in the Pacific during World War 2. . Unluckily Boyington was shot down by the Japanese on January 3 1944 and quietly sent to the secret Japanese prison in Ofuna near Tokyo with a broken and untreated ankle. He was kept company by other famous American flyers from the Doolittle raid on Tokyo and several other 'missing in action' people never heard from again. . The reunion in San Francisco at the St. Francis hotel was held in his honor by a large number of "BLACK SHEEP" squadron members and other old friends an Ace pilots. . RESCUE FROM OFUNA PRISON: . The Ofuna Camp Ofuna Shuyosho was an Imperial Japanese Navy installation located in Kamakura outside Yokohama Japan during World War II where high-value enlisted and officers particularly pilots and submariner prisoners of war were interrogated and incarcerated by Japanese naval intelligence Richard O'Kane Louis Zamperini and Gregory Boyington were among the prisoners held at Ofuna. . The Ofuna Camp was opened on April 26 1942 and was operated by a detachment of the Guard Unit of the Yokosuka Naval District. Whereas most other Japanese P.O.W. prisoner of war camps were run by the Imperial Japanese Army Ofuna was run by the Navy. In violation of international agreements including the Geneva Convention it was never officially reported as a prisoner camp and the International Red Cross was not allowed access. . The Japanese position was that the Ofuna Camp was only a temporary holding facility for prisoners who would be transferred elsewhere. It was commanded by Commander Yokura Sashizo who later would be sentenced to 25 years of hard labor for war crimes. . Ofuna had a reputation for intimidation and for torturing their inmates in an attempt to get military information and was nicknamed the "Torture Farm" by its inmates. As the prisoners sent to Ofuna were primarily officers who might have inside knowledge of Allied strategy or others working in critical areas such as communications and submarines it was the goal of the Japanese to extract as much information as possible in a short time. . The interrogations were repeated every two weeks but the interrogators compared notes to see if there were any discrepancies. Refusing to answer questions lying disrespect to the interrogators and a number of other infractions were punished by a beating with wooden clubs. Guards often beat prisoners or slapped them in the face for the slightest infraction or at times at random. Officers typically faced harsher treatment than enlisted ranks. Inmates also claimed that Ofuna guards were often sadistic enjoying the beating and clubbing of inmates. . The American forces liberated the prisoners on 21 August 1945. . The film: "UNBROKEN" was a story about one American inmate held in this brutal environment. . NOTE: Please visit our website for other books by/about Boyington including original signed items. We also have a large number of books by/about "A.V.G." "AMERICAN VOLUNTEER GROUP" & "FLYING TIGERS" including some RARE signed items. . Color photos are posted to our website. .

‎Il rumore dei baci a vuoto‎

‎br. Un cane regalato mette a nudo un matrimonio che fa fatica a stare su, e chissà se a Tano fare il vigile basterà. E il Matto Bedini? Esisterà davvero o saranno le solite chiacchiere di paese? Di sicuro esistono i due ragazzini che decidono di scoprire finalmente la verità. Una lettera che un chirurgo forse aprirà, forse no. Che forse gli farà aprire gli occhi su una storia di quotidiana disumanità, forse no, ma è certo che li farà aprire a noi. Un'azienda che sta morendo, anche se ha ancora qualcosa da dire, e un fiume che sta morendo, anche se ha ancora qualcosa da dire. Una vacanza nell'estate più strana fin qui e una in pieno inverno, e la scoperta che il passato riesce a ferire nonostante i patti e le promesse, ma forse non mortalmente. Un comico all'apice del successo che compie una scelta difficile da capire. Un rapimento per errore che forse non è tanto per errore. Una moglie già anziana che si è portata dentro tutta la vita un incredibile segreto e adesso lo svela. O forse no. E quale verde aspetterà il giovane medico per oltrepassare il semaforo davanti al quale la sua vita sembra essersi tranquillamente assestata? Ci sono molti tipi di amore, in queste storie. Nessuno facile. Verso i figli, verso i genitori, verso gli amici, dentro le più diverse coppie e famiglie. Ma c'è soprattutto tenerezza, nei racconti teneri come in quelli che colpiscono dritti allo stomaco. E c'è speranza e futuro, nei finali aperti che lasciano immaginare tante soluzioni possibili.‎
