Three other titles of Jeremy Josephs' books are also available on Kindle (but not via Simba Books)
Swastika over Paris - The Fate of the French Jews
(Bloomsbury)
On Georg Haddad Street in the Syrian capital Damascus lives an old man named Aloïs Brunner. He is the last major Nazi war criminal still at large. His crimes are on a par with those of Adolf Eichmann. He is responsible for the murder of 128,500 people, most of them French Jews, many of them children.
Through the parallel stories of Armand Kohn, a rich Parisian Jew who naively refused to accept the inevitable, and Paulette Szlifke, a courageous, teenage reistance fighter who was ultimately betrayed for her Jewishness, the reader learns how the Nazis - aided by many French men and women, some enthusiastically, some unwittingly - attempted genocide.

Dr. Jack - Calcutta's Pavement doctor
(Bloomsbury)
In the backstreets of Calcutta, shielded from the scorching sun by a tattered tarpaulin, mothers clutching semi-conscious, emaciated babies, and adult and children with missing or gangrenous limbs or suffering tuberculosis or leprosy, queue in their hundreds to see Dr. Jack Preger.
On a stretch of pavement measuring two meters by thirty he runs a unique clinic. His patients are destitutes and dispossessed, those who live and die on the streets. The clinic has survived for over a decade, in spite of official disapproval, and will be ministering to its 20,000th family.
Born and brought up in an orthodox Jewish family near Manchester, as a young adult Preger converted to Catholicism. In 1972 he qualified as a doctor and immediately left to set up a clinic in Bangladesh. Seven years later he was expelled after exposing a government-masterminded racket involving the illegal export of babies for adoption. Undeterred, he set off again the following year to begin his now legendary work in Calcutta.
Preger is a man of paradox. To the West Bengali authorities, he is an embarrassment and a nuisance, continually campaigning against official corruption, permanently awaiting trial for practising without a licence, and vowing to fight the threatened closure of his clinic and resist deportation even at the risk of imprisonment. To the people of Calcutta, whose desperate suffering he struggles tirelessly to alleviate, he is a "living saint".
A self-confessed manic depressive, Preger relies on his work to sustain him. His two broken marriages - and two deserted children - bespeak a turbulent personal life in which he finds difficult to reconcile with his reputation as a paragon of virtue. "I am certainly no saint - nor have I ever been... A lot of the things that people imagine about someone like myself are just projected fantasies. The fact is that I happen to work with poor people. To me it’s the most natural thing in the world".

A Vineyard in the Dordogne
(JOHN BLAKE PUBLISHING)
It had been his dream for as long as he could recall. To live in France. To make excellent wine in a vineyard of his own. And to have as his home an elegant chateau. Was this not, Nick Ryman wondered, everyone’s secret desire?
In 1973, when he sold the multi-million pound Ryman stationery business, which together with his brother he had successfully built up into a household name, the opportunity finally came for Nick Ryman to transform fantasy into reality. Still not 40 years old, he put his smart dark-blue Ferrari on a ferry for France and immediately headed south to follow his dream.
It did not take him too long to discover and fall in love with Chateau de la Jaubertie, a beautiful 400-year old country mansion, built from soft golden sandstone and set n the heart of the lush green valley of the Dordogne. Together with his wife Anne, a professional cordon-blue cook, and their three children, Hugh, Corinne and Camilla, the Rymans embarked in search of a new life à la française. They had not anticipated the steep learning curve required to deal with the local French people and their customs; nor the passions and rifts that were to erupt within the family.
A Chateau in the Dordogne tells the compelling human story behind Nick Ryman realizing his ambition to make the finest wines both in Bergerac and beyond, thereby beating the French at their own game. But it is a tale of troubles as well of triumphs.
Members of the Ryman family and close associates recall their experiences for Jeremy Josephs, and in their own words they describe how the pursuit of the dream changed their lives. He reveals an English family in France sometimes in harmony and pulling together, other times torn apart by rivalry and torment.
