    • The narrative centers on the author's personal experiences as a paratrooper in South Vietnam, chronicled through letters he wrote to his family over four decades. These letters, preserved by his parents, reflect the harsh realities of military life under challenging conditions, complete with grammatical errors and misspellings. Accompanied by insights and anecdotes from his granddaughter, the book balances humor and seriousness, focusing on everyday life rather than graphic battle scenes. It begins in West Germany before transitioning to the author's deployment in Vietnam.

      When Jim Crawford, the flamboyant Chairman of Electronics company, Ayot plc, launches a hostile bid for old-fashioned Byfield plc it is at first appears just another example of market forces dictating the survival of the fittest, irrespective of the human cost. But it soon becomes apparent that Crawford has another motivation: an old score to settle with Byfield's Chairman, John Parker. When things get personal cool business sense is the first business casualty. Takeover gives an exhilarating view of how business really works at board level and sounds a salutary warning to acquisition-hungry businesses: if you think acquisitions are an easy route to growth, think again.
