Sergeant Jack Crossman's second adventure finds him still in the heat of battle in the Crimea. Having survived a dangerous covert mission in The Devil's Own the man known to his comrades as 'Fancy Jack' now faces new horrors at the Battle of Balaclava. In the confusion of the conflict Jack witnesses the carnage during the hopeless and tragic charge of the Light Brigade when more than six hundred British cavalry troops charged Russian gun emplacements, mistakenly following orders that, as they were passed down the chain of command, had been misinterpreted. Kilworth's rousing narrative of courage on the field and his vivid descriptions of the horrifying realities of the Crimean campaign are related with verve and meticulous historical detail, in the spirit of the great military adventures.

Women in Love (1920) is a novel by British author D. H. Lawrence. It is a sequel to his earlier novel The Rainbow (1915), and follows the continuing loves and lives of the Brangwen sisters, Gudrun and Ursula. Gudrun Brangwen, an artist, pursues a destructive relationship with Gerald Crich, an industrialist. Lawrence contrasts this pair with the love that develops between Ursula Brangwen and Rupert Birkin, an alienated intellectual who articulates many opinions associated with the author. The emotional relationships thus established are given further depth and tension by an intense psychological and physical attraction between Gerald and Rupert. The novel ranges over the whole of British society before the time of the First World War and eventually concludes in the snows of the Tyrolean Alps. Ursula's character draws on Lawrence's wife Frieda and Gudrun's on Katherine Mansfield, while Rupert Birkin's has elements of Lawrence himself, and Gerald Crich is partly based on Mansfield's husband, John Middleton Murry.

Women in Love is a profound exploration of relationships, sexuality, and societal conventions in early 20th-century England. Set against the backdrop of World War I, the novel follows the lives of two sisters, Ursula and Gudrun Brangwen, as they navigate love, desire, and independence. Ursula, a schoolteacher, seeks a deeper connection beyond societal expectations, while Gudrun, an artist, is drawn to passionate and tumultuous relationships. As they become involved with Rupert Birkin and Gerald Crich, two men from different social classes, the novel delves into the complexities of human emotions and the struggle for genuine intimacy in a world marked by societal constraints and emotional repression. Women in Love was published as a sequel to Lawrence’s controversial The Rainbow, although they were meant to be one book. Because The Rainbow was banned in the UK for eleven years, the novel was initially published in the US to subscribers only, after years of delays. Lawrence’s UK publisher backed out out of publishing the novel, and UK readers had to wait for over a year until it was finally published in England. This book is part of the Standard Ebooks project, which produces free public domain ebooks.
