Remembering the Great War
6th July 2018 One hundred years ago this month, in the closing stages of the First World War, the Second Battle of the Marne was raging. The last major German offensive of the war, it was met by a huge Allied counterattack in mid-July 1918 - a strategy that would eventually see the German Army retreating back across the Marne River. As a result of the battle, the resulting Allied advance would lead to the signing of the November Armistice which brought an end to the war some months later. The human story of World War I is recounted by Ed Dixon in his book Tales from the Western Front, which includes stories of combatants drawn from across this world-changing conflict. For more information about the book, please visit our Tales from the Western Front page. |

Introducing The Fearn Bobby
26th February 2018 Coming soon, Extremis Publishing is pleased to announce the exciting debut book by author Ian McNeish. The Fearn Bobby: Reflections from a Life in Scottish Policing explores Ian's eventful career as he rose through the ranks from a remote countryside outpost to his appointment as a Local Unit Commander, always putting the community at the centre of everything he did. Ian held a police warrant card for three decades, serving communities across Scotland. In that time, his work saw him moving from the northerly constabulary where he policed the rural Hill of Fearn to the social challenges that presented themselves amongst the urban landscape of Central Scotland. Leading the reader through his involvement in front line situations, Ian explains the effects of anti-social behaviour and attending criminal court appearances, in addition to dealing with death and the responsibilities of informing those left behind. He considers topics such as ethics, public interest, police and firearms, drug issues, causes of crime, and a lot more besides. Comparing today’s policing techniques with his own professional experiences and examining both the good times and the harrowing pitfalls of the job, his account of life in the force is heartfelt, entertaining, and always completely honest. The Fearn Bobby will be released on Friday 30th March 2018, and is now available for pre-order from online retailers and independent booksellers. For more details about the book, please visit our The Fearn Bobby page. |
