by James Franklin Lambert, Henry J. Reinhard

A terrorist attack leaves millions inflicted with a horrific disease. This scar on humanity has left desperate politicians no alternative than to rest their hopes on bizarre theories and hypotheses regarding an unknown cure. The ensuing lust for answers and power by the corrupt New World Order leads to betrayal, assassinations, concentration camps, and the potential destruction of the United States. In this ultimate battle between good and evil, who will win the race against time?
There were fewer than 500 houses in Yateley in WWI but with Aldershot, Farnborough, Camberley and Sandhurst close by, this Hampshire villages response to the call to arms was more prepared than most, and punched above its weight.Using contemporary evidence from many sources researched by our local history team, the Yateley Society recreates the impact of the War on our predecessors. The story of the men who left Yateley to fight -- territorials, regulars, volunteers and conscripts -- is told alongside that of the battalions of Kitcheners New Armies training in trench warfare on Yateley Common. At the same time, in the three private houses forming the Yateley Military Hospital, Yateley women of all ages were tending wounded soldiers.With its intimate glimpses into village life, this book, will fascinate anyone with Yateley connections. The names of many families in the village of 100 years ago are here, while for recent newcomers with perhaps a Victorian or Edwardian house there may be clues to the history of your homes.With its many illustrations and maps, this exploration of the social network, and social consequences of the Great War on a small community in North East Hampshire has interest for historians and general readers alike.
