Disponible en français: ASIN 2982153505 Best known as a garrison town with its fortifications and its citadel, the city of Quebec was first colonized and then conquered by sea. The last deep-water port on the St. Lawrence and a hub for maritime commerce, the history of Quebec is closely linked to the sea. However, it was not before three centuries after the founding of the city that a permanent naval presence was established there with the creation of a half company of the Royal Canadian Navy Volunteer Reserve in 1923. This unit, which became Her Majesty's Canadian Ship MONTCALM, is still present there, a hundred years later. Other naval units have appeared over the years. Some have disappeared while those who remain continue to perpetuate this naval presence in the Old Capital. This work relates the history of these various naval units established in Quebec over the last hundred years.

The Allied Chaplains of the American, British, Canadian and Polish armies in the battles for Northwestern Europe and in the Battle of the Atlantic are often overlooked due to their small numbers in relation to the hundreds of thousands of other men who made up the Allied armies. However, the chaplains were highly respected and appreciated by the men in the various units they served, as well as often being incredibly brave men who were (and are) forbidden by the rules of war from carrying any sort of weapon into battle, beyond their holy books and their faith. Allied chaplains suffered the second highest loss rate of killed or wounded of any group of men in World War II (second only to that of RAF Bomber Command) and were virtually irreplaceable due to the academic and religious training that took years to complete.This book looks at the Allied Chaplains who died during the Battle for France in 1940, endured the horrors of the Dunkirk evacuation, died in the battles on the North Atlantic (due to the sinking of their ships by German U-Boats), in the Battle for Normandy in 1944, during the Allied liberation of occupied Europe, and the defeat of Germany. It includes information about their lives before entering military chaplaincy, their deaths and sometimes the differing accounts of their deaths, as well as their final resting places in cemeteries across Europe andin the United States of America or where they are commemorated on Memorial Walls to the Missing.The Revd Dr Thomas Wilson has had an interest in WW II military history since he was 12 years old. Revd Wilson had a career in the business world before answering the call to ordained ministry. He was ordained in the Anglican Church of Canada, and served as the Rector of a parish in Southwestern Ontario. In 2007, he had the chance to spend a year in France, on a university exchange program that his wife, Professor Dawn Cornelio was coordinating. While there, they led some of the Canadian students on a visit to Normandy, where they all participated in graveside memorial Service for Canadian Chaplain Walter Brown. It was Padre Brown's murder that led Revd Wilson to initially explore all the Allied Chaplainskilled in the Battle for Normandy. After moving to serve as the Rector of a Scottish Episcopal (Anglican) Church for over 5 years, Revd Wilson now is the Anglican Chaplain of St Raphael and the Var in southern France where he ministers to a multi-national English-speaking congregation

"Susan Mayclin Stephenson aborda un tema amplio, la educación cósmica, que Montessori definió como una "visión global y universal unificadora del pasado, presente y futuro". Stephenson lleva al lector desde el nacimiento hasta el final de la edad primaria con ejemplos de cómo el niño crece en la comprensión de la educación cósmica a través de sus experiencias en el hogar y en la escuela. El tema central de su tesis es el descubrimiento de la tarea cósmica de uno, que depende de "fomentar... la curiosidad y la compasión hacia otros seres".Stephenson concluye con ejemplos de todo el mundo e ilustra cómo los niños nacen con esta tendencia hacia la compasión y cómo se experimenta desde el nacimiento en entornos Montessori.-David Kahn, Director Ejecutivo Emérito de la Asociación Norteamericana de Maestros Montessori (NAMTA)
