Description

The compiler and editor of this book is the grandson of the original interviewer who inherited the notes, transcripts, and drafts of his grandfather and decided to finish his work. One was the author T Lobsang Rampa, a reincarnated Tibetan monk who described his time living in Tibet and training to be a spiritual leader. This book truly reveals the devastation put down on the beach defenses on the morning of the 6th June 1944.

D Day Through German Eyes' presents the transcripts of interviews which my grandfather carried out with German veterans in 1954, on the tenth anniversary of D Day. This is actually a hugely important document as it explains something that has always been a mystery to those of us from allied countries, namely how on earth could ordinary Germans fight for and support the evils of the 3rd Reich. Listen in as she takes six different people on a career change journey to help them figure out what work they would really love to do and create a plan of how to make that career change happen.

Revealed: Volunteer police officer who told Christian singer that she is 'not allowed' to perform 'church. One Thursday lunchtime the Earth gets unexpectedly demolished to make way for a new hyperspace bypass. The people of Japan believe that everyone has an ikigai - a reason for being; the thing that gets you out of bed each morning. This book sheds fascinating light on these questions, bringing together statements made by German survivors after the war, when time had allowed them to reflect on their state of mind, their actions and their choices of June 6th.

Eliminate negativity and change your life with best-selling author, happiness expert and life coach Domonique Bertolucci. Almost all accounts of D Day are told from the Allied perspective, with the emphasis on how German resistance was overcome on June 6th 1944. The taverna is the only place that Kostas and Defne can meet in secret, hidden beneath the blackened beams from which hang garlands of garlic and chilli peppers, creeping honeysuckle, and in the centre, growing through a cavity in the roof, a fig tree. I wonder how much of the recounting was still colored by the story being made available to the victors, as nothing negative is said about being captured or sent to camps in other countries? Previous histories have focused on the 'clash of the generals'; the battle between von Runstedt and Eisenhower, Montgomery and Rommel, but on the German side in particular this was a battle that would be fought by divisional and regimental commanders; the 'German D-Day colonels' upon whom the real business of trying to defeat the invasion fell - it was they and their men, outnumbered and outgunned, who somehow held Normandy for ten whole weeks against the greatest seaborne invasion force ever assembled, and occasionally even came close to defeating it.There is one account from each of the five beach landings (Utah, Omaha, Gold, Juno and Sword), which constituted the Normandy invasion. I remember dating, later marrying a woman whose maiden name, which I won't disclose here, was discussed by my parents when I first met her.
