Brave Buster is a dog to write home about. This is a special book about a special dog.

A must-read, a moving tale of true friendship

One of the greatest, most radical public thinkers of our time. When the sun sets on the American empire, as it will, as it must, Noam Chomsky's work will survive

Noam Chomsky is a global phenomenon . . . he may be the most widely read American voice on foreign policy on the planet today

A plea to end American hypocrisy, to introduce a more consistently principled dimension to American relations with the world, and, to scrutinize critically how the US government actually exercises its still-unmatched power

Chomsky's work is neither theoretical, nor ideological: it is passionate and righteous

Engaging writing and excellent presentation . . . a tricky yet well-crafted analysis, which adds to the revisionist school of thought with some edgy arguments, this is sure to get you thinking.

An insightful study of generalship on both sides.

A tremendously well-written and important book and a testament to the qualities Camus lent La Peste's hero: 'humane, optimistic, tolerant, free-thinking, ever alive to injustice and acts of inhumanity'

Caroline Moorehead’s remarkable book is in essence the story of how a community, or rather group of communities, survived the travails of war with dignity. It is also a tale that gives a larger meaning to Hemingway’s macho phrase, 'grace under pressure'… Moorehead is wary of attempts to simplify history and ignore the complications of memory… What, as the last memories dim, was the truth? Moorehead’s question is implicit: is there such a thing? The reader is left with another question, equally difficult: 'what would I have done?’

Powerful and ultimately uplifting book … a far more nuanced account of courage - in which some Catholics did indeed help, and the links with neutral Switzerland were occasionally helpful - than previously recounted about Le Chambon

Fascinating and heartening story… Thorough, objective and readable… captivating

Elegant style

Brilliantly captures the actions of an astonishing, taciturn wartime community

A story of courage and determination, of heroic individuals…and of what can be done when people come together to oppose tyranny

A unique story of courage and determination

Elegant style

Moorehead’s account makes for frequently moving and, at times, harrowing reading… Fascinating

[Moorehead is a] brilliant investigative journalist

A work of remembrance and a moving tribute

Moorehead skillfully intersperses layer after layer of historical fact with narratives of deeply human stories

A moving piece, splendidly told

It’s an inspiring story

Moorehead does an expert job in pulling together testimonies from survivors to filter myths and memories from fact to retell an extraordinary tale

Story of courage and determination, of a small number of heroic individuals who risked their lives to save others, and of what can be done when people come together to oppose tyranny

Village of Secrets is crammed full of stories from survivors, tales of courage, betrayal, failure, success, hope, despair. It is a helter-skelter ride through the most extreme of human experiences
