Face-to-face with Universa. She came from a distant planet, wielding unimaginable power, seeking to drain our planet dry of all energy. Invincible was able to stop her. But how long can she be contained... and what can be done with her?

After the dust of World War II had settled, the military position of the UK was far from straightforward. It was of course allied to the USA and part of NATO, but it was at odds with the former in maintaining an Empire and the two nations also had competing oil interests in the Middle East. The UK's engagement in war after 1945 was thus a strange mixture ranging from homeland security through insular actions within the colonies or protectorates to preserve empire - to playing a major role in confronting the USSR. The types of active involvement of the RAF, Fleet Air Arm and Army Air Corps between 1945 and 1995 include the following, with examples. Maintaining Local Stability - Greece, Netherlands East Indies. Maintaining Empire - Malaya, Kenya. Defending Empire - Borneo. Defending Interests - Suez, Kuwait. Homeland Security - Northern Ireland, air defence. Confrontation - Berlin Airlift, Korea. Covert Action - Albania, strategic reconnaissance. Humanitarian and Peacekeeping- Jordan, Cyprus. Development of Deterrent - Bombs, bombers and missiles.

The battleship era began with the launch of HMS Dreadnought in 1906 and ended when air power became the dominant force. Many battleships remain household names and the losses of the Hood, Bismarck, Yamato and Arizona still echo through the decades because of their fascinating stories.

COULD IT BE POSSIBLE? Could it be possible that there is a way to experience the Creator, the Source of the Universe? Have you ever wondered just why you are here? What is the purpose of life? Trevor asked himself the same questions many years ago and this book is the result of gaining some answers to this age-old quest for inner knowledge. It takes the reader on a journey from conception to enlightenment describing the spiritual experiences of two sixteenth century Christian saints, St. Teresa of Avila and St. John of the Cross and two twentieth century Hindu saints - Yogananda and Muktananda. The author then turns to the Bible, examining the four gospels, with particular emphasis on the deeper and hidden message of Jesus. Trevor also relates his own spiritual journey and how this has shaped his life. The book concludes with the possible future for mankind.
