We’ve just published our book ‘Atlantikwall in kaart’. It’s in Dutch, but there’s much to see as well. 😊
It describes the complete story of the German Atlantic Wall as a defensive system through original war time maps. A thread on maps as a source. 🧵 #HistoryWritersDay22

My first book was Glider Pilots at Arnhem, co-written with great friend and fellow GPR historian, Luuk Buist. The book was packed with veteran accounts from interviews with Glider Pilot veterans that we had interviewed. I am still very proud of this book.

आता काळाची गरज ओळखून वेळ न दवडता मराठा तरुणांनी इतिहास संशोधन क्षेत्रात धडाडीने उतरावे.
कारण आपण मनगटशाहीवर इतिहास निर्माण केला त्यांनी लेखनीच्या साह्याने तो जिरवला.
त्याचेच भोग आज भोगतोय.

Operation Chastise. Operation Millenium. Discovering V Weapons. The Battle of Britain. There are so many significant WWII RAF ops we can't fully understand without grasping that thousands of women worked in intelligence behind them. My book investigates :) #HistoryWritersDay22

It's #HistoryWritersDay22 , so I thought I'd tell you about myself.
I'm a medical historian who's found herself in the role of the patient after recently being diagnosed with Stage II #breastcancer . I've written two books, both of which make me glad I live today & not yesterday.
What was the first history book that you read & how old were you?
My first was a biography on Napoleon. I was 12. My love for history, battles, strategy & men with swords & muskets flourished. That's why the protagonists in my books are men - except one.

My book, Scandalous Conduct, studies how the Canadian army defined dishonourable actions through both world wars and used disciplinary and legal measures to expel perceived offenders of an often ambiguous honour code.

It’s been challenging to write this for several reasons. Making sure Alan was happy with this. Accuracy, which the war diaries corroborated points Alan referred to and then making sure this was Alan’s account and it didn’t turn into Regimental history... #HistoryWritersDay22
