Barrett Tillman's Rant Page: October 2014
http://barretttillman.blogspot.com/2014_10_01_archive.html
Barrett Tillman's Rant Page. Rants and ruminations by historian, novelist, essayist, and commentator, Barrett Tillman. Wednesday, October 1, 2014. FIFTY YEARS IN PRINT. It just struck me: I’ve been published for fifty years now. I keep a list of my published articles, not so much for ego or old-time’s sake as for reference. Ask any author and you’ll learn that it’s a whole lot easier to thumb through “the files” for THAT article than to research the subject again. One article, four checks. No reason he s...

Barrett Tillman's Rant Page. Rants and ruminations by historian, novelist, essayist, and commentator, Barrett Tillman. Tuesday, June 17, 2014. HISTORY WANTS YOUR EMAILS. We researchers and writers are necessarily hoarders. We wind up with hundreds of reference volumes and file cabinets full of old manuscripts and back issues of long-forgotten publications. But what about emails? So do the computers of nearly every colleague I know. When I say I'm cataloging emails, mainly that means I'm retitling them fo...
Barrett Tillman's Rant Page: November 2014
http://barretttillman.blogspot.com/2014_11_01_archive.html
Barrett Tillman's Rant Page. Rants and ruminations by historian, novelist, essayist, and commentator, Barrett Tillman. Tuesday, November 25, 2014. Most of us have seen news stories about potential victims killing “unarmed teens,” implying that shooting an unarmed assailant cannot be justified. But that’s just plain wrong. 8220;Unarmed” does not mean “not dangerous,” and it does not mean that lethal force is never justified. Lakeland, Florida, May 2014. A 43-year-old man was engaged in a gas-station a...
Barrett Tillman's Rant Page: July 2014
http://barretttillman.blogspot.com/2014_07_01_archive.html
Barrett Tillman's Rant Page. Rants and ruminations by historian, novelist, essayist, and commentator, Barrett Tillman. Sunday, July 27, 2014. In writing over 40 nonfiction books and some 600 articles I’ve interviewed a few hundred WW II veterans from at least seven nations. Naturally, the huge majority have been Americans but I also got to know Allied airmen from Britain, Canada, Australia, and Poland, and fliers from Germany and Japan. And A Pilot’s Life. However, his blunt demeanor and mission-oriented...

Barrett Tillman's Rant Page. Rants and ruminations by historian, novelist, essayist, and commentator, Barrett Tillman. Thursday, August 14, 2014. AUGUST 2014: CENTURY DOWNSTREAM. One hundred years ago this month, the world changed. The conflagration was called The Great War. It retained that name for 21 years until the next round received a Roman numeral Two. The Austro-Hungarians pressed Serbia with demands that would never be met. Six young men destroyed the world. All to no effect. The French seethed ...

Is a brilliant piece of scholarship combining detailed research with a highly readable narrative. An important work for anyone interested in World War II. Robert von Maier, editor-in-chief, Global War Studies. A superb book that captures the heroism and tragedy of war, and at the center of it all is this remarkable ship, the likes of which we're unlikely to see ever again.

Original Writings and Interviews by Barrett Tillman. Dad said to me. But I was surprised. As a pilot can be. I didn’t do it,. I thought you had it. And that was no lie. For Dad was up front. And I being thick;. The hand on the stick. Once in awhile,. From out of the blue. God shoots landings, too. At the fitness center I once did enter. To firm up unused muscles. With iron to pump my heart would jump. At circuit’s end I went to spend. With the nutritionist some money. And sitting thar, behind the bar,.

September 29, 1947-June 6, 1997). Jeff was irreplaceable; nobody else did what he did so well for so long. Years before he died he’d logged 750 hours in current military aircraft worldwide, from South America to Europe and Russia. That was Jeff: he made things happen yet he remained low-key and self-effacing about his accomplishments. After all, how many ordained Baptist ministers went to heaven in a P-38?

Lives of Science and Adventure. Summer 2012: Read More. School’s out for the summer and I’m trying hard to plan ahead for plenty of things to do so that I don’t find myself sitting in front of the TV being lazy for weeks at a time. I’ve got 8-weeks of summer. I’m not sure how many books I can actually read and my list keeps getting longer, but I’m going to do my best! Photo credit to opensourceway. The Harry Potter Series. A Tree Grows in Brooklyn. All That Is Bitter and Sweet. For the Teacher in Me.
