„To bardziej niebezpieczny szpieg niż tysiąc mężczyzn” – mówił o niej Roosevelt. Burzliwe życie Stefanie von Hohenlohe, szpiegującej na rzecz nazistów wśród angielskiej arystokracji. Żydówka pochodząca z wiedeńskiej rodziny, po ślubie i rozwodzie z niemieckim księciem stała się znajomą Hitlera, Goeringa i Himmlera. Po przybyciu do Londynu w 1932 roku weszła w kręgi angielskiej arystokracji, przygotowała m.in. wizytę Księcia i Księżnej Windsoru w Niemczech. Szpiegując na rzecz nazistów, była opłacana przez lorda Rothermere, właściciela słynnych brytyjskich pism – „Daily Mail” i „Daily Mirror”, sympatyka Hitlera. Jim Wilson służył w RAF, przez czterdzieści lat był dziennikarzem prasowym i telewizyjnym. Jak pisze, historia „księżnej nazistów” jest również jego historią rodzinną, bo księżnę Stephanie i lorda Rothermere przedstawiła sobie cioteczna babka Autora – Annabel.

The elite police officers secretly launching Scotland's biggest ever offensive against organised crime had only one target. His name was Jamie Stevenson, but he was known as The Iceman, the biggest drugs trafficker the country has ever seen. Suspected of a string of murders - including the gangland assassination of his best friend—Stevenson's decade-long rise was built on ruthless ambition, strategic cunning and calculated, brutal violence. It left him at the head of one of Europe's biggest smuggling operations pouring tons of drugs and guns onto the streets of Scotland. The Iceman tells the astonishing story of Stevenson's rise and fall, offering a unique and explosive insight into Operation Folklore, the unprecedented four-year investigation that ended in his arrest. It lays bare the blood-soaked business of Scotland's most powerful crime lord and, for the first time, exposes how he made—and laundered—his dirty millions.

In the study of warfare, great men have concluded that there are some overriding principles which, if followed, will always tend toward success in battle, and if neglected or ignored, will tend toward defeat or even destruction. These principles have been entitled the "principles of war." But not all warfare is waged on a battlefield: every Christian is called to be a soldier. Our fight is against Satan, our objective is the acknowledgment and fulfillment of God's commands, and our ammunition is the power of the Holy Spirit. In Principles of War Jim Wilson outlines the time-tried, fundamental principles of war and explains how we can employ them in our daily spiritual battles as we fight a war which our commander in chief has already won for us.
