The Wives Military - The Military Wives: Wherever You Are – Claire’s Story краткое содержание
This is Claire’s story, one of four individual journeys taken from Wherever You Are by The Military Wives.Claire Balneaves never thought she’d end up as a military wife. But when she met a young medical assistant, Dave Balneaves, at a naval hospital, everything changed. Before long Claire and Dave had tied the knot and moved into married quarters – and Claire began to settle into the unique life of a military wife. Moving from house to house, from country to country, often solitary – in many ways Claire lived as a single mother. When family and medical difficulties cast a cloud over her personal life, Claire had no one to turn to.But from the moment she joined a nascent choir of military wives, that changed: wives with similar stories came together to sing, and there they found solace and strength. They found each other.Mere months later, the Military Wives choir would have met Gareth Malone, performed for the Queen, recorded a bestselling album and achieved a Christmas number 1.This is one woman’s true story of heartbreak and hope, and of how the choir changed the course of her life.Sales of this book will benefit the Military Wives Choirs Foundation, a network of choirs that reaches across the military community to provide support, guidance and funding for individual choirs, but first and foremost to bring women closer together through singing. The Foundation is a registered subsidiary charity of SSAFA Forces Help.

Граф Геннинг Фридрих фон-Бассевич (1680–1749) в продолжении целого ряда лет имел большое влияние на политические дела Севера, что давало ему возможность изобразить их в надлежащем свете и сообщить ключ к объяснению придворных тайн. Записки Бассевича вводят нас в самую середину Северной войны, когда Карл XII бездействовал в Бендерах, а полководцы его терпели поражения от русских. Перевес России был уже явный, но вместо решительных событий наступила неопределенная пора дипломатических сближений....
