The Winter Army: The World War II Odyssey of the 10th Mountain Division, America's Elite Alpine Warriors"Compelling and readable . . . I had serious trouble putting this book down." John C.

"Compelling and readable . . . I had serious trouble putting this book down."--John C. McManus, author of Fire and Fortitude and The Dead and Those About to Die The epic story of the US Army's 10th Mountain Division, whose elite soldiers broke the last line of German defenses in Italy's mountains in 1945, spearheading the Allied advance to the Alps and final victory At the start of World War II, the US Army had two cavalry divisions--and no mountain troops. The German Wehrmacht, in contrast, had many well-trained and battle-hardened mountain divisions, some of whom, by 1943, had blocked the Allied advance in the Italian campaign. Starting from scratch, the US Army developed a unique military fighting force, the 10th Mountain Division, drawn from the ranks of civilian skiers, mountaineers, and others with outdoor experience. The resulting mix of Ivy League students, park rangers, Olympic skiers, and European refugees formed the first specialized alpine fighting force in US history. By the time they deployed to Italy at the beginning of 1945, this ragtag group had coalesced into a tight-knit unit. In the months that followed, at a terrible cost, they spearheaded the Allied drive in Italy to final victory. Ranging from the ski slopes of Colorado to the towering cliffs of the Italian Alps, The Winter Army is a saga of an unlikely band of soldiers forged in the heat of combat into a brotherhood whose legacy lives on in American mountain fighters to this day.Binding Type: Paperback

Open your mind to discover the electric you !
Format: Paperback
Electric body electric health is an informative book, presenting and clarifying what it means to be electric. A concept to change the mindset not specifically challenging current medical cosmology models but presenting a sound case for the electric body within the electric universe. As a PT Movement educator and Biofield Tuning practitioner certified and educated by Eileen McKusick (the author) along with Jillian Faldmo Rn and Angela Kent , this book solidifies my strength as a Practitioner and melding movement breath and voltage. In a world where sitting, zooming and taking pills or alcohol to escape is prevalent, Eileen provides the tools as simple as laugh , sing and dance but also the science to include feeding our micro cells at the tiniest micro level, their nourishment through utilizing oxygen from nature, plants we eat , clean water. Electric interactions, including what we know and theorize with the electron transport chain of energy as well as the Krebs cycle with its energetic reactions, gives the argument to think electrically and be electric to shine your light. Shining your light is a perfect example of melding electric and emotional as our body reacts to memories , sounds and movement. I am grateful to be part of the biofieldtuning family. I am grateful as Brene Brown says, as Eileen "dared greatly". Her boldness to dare to challenge the norm and present the electric health within the electric universe. Our spark is our connection to each other and our light shines as we care for our inner body, our Biofield around us and our Electric universe .

Surprisingly good!
Format: Paperback
I came into this with a certain amount of skepticism and was glad to read the author's candid remarks about learning about how she uses sound to help people out. McKusick does a good job of weaving together personal experiences, interactions with others and published scientific picture to give a complete view about how energy flows through us in much different ways then we are aware of or that we allow ourselves to investigate and explore. She has put in years to learn more about electricity, the connection of the body with sound and how pain can be an indicator of more than your physical body. Anyone with an open mind, even someone like me who's not a Deepak Chopra type of person, will take things away from this and will learn more about something they haven't heard about before reading this book. Good overall read!
