    CA21 Basque Pyrénées CosyLa and budgetCaminade walking holidays in France Season From end of April to mid-October.

But it easy to follow the line of crests towards the next pass and quickly you will see the path again! Itinerary 7-day and 6-night self-guided walking holidays Day 1 : Arrival at SAINT JEAN PIED DE PORT. The chief town of Basse Navarre is located at the base of the Roncevaux pass in a charming and lush pocket.

The city holds a rich patrimony which includes la prison des Evêques (Bishops’ Jail), la maison des états de Navarre, and the Romanesque bridge…that you shall not want to miss. Half-board accommodation in a two-star hotel. Day 2 : SAINT JEAN PIED DE PORT - ST ETIENNE DE BAÏGORRY (7 hour walk – Ascent : 900 meters).

    H-War Abel on Walsh, 'Last Stands: Why Men Fight When All Is Lost' Review published on Thursday, January 14, 2021 Michael Walsh. Last Stands: Why Men Fight When All Is Lost. New York: St. Martin's Press, 2020. 368 pp. $28.99 (cloth), ISBN 978-1-250-21708-0. Reviewed by Jonathan Abel (Command and General Staff College, Ft. Leavenworth) Published on H-War (January, 2021) Commissioned by Margaret Sankey (Air University) Printable Version: https://www.h-net.org/reviews/showpdf.php?id=56033 “It Doesn’t Matter ... Whether the Stories Really Happened: What Matters Is That They Are True” Michael Walsh’s Last Stands: Why Men Fight When All Is Lost is a new entry into the popular history market, aimed at securing an audience interested in military history and military affairs. It relates the stories of fifteen battles, ranging from classical Greece to World War II, from the author’s perspective. These serve as case studies of the author’s thesis, which purports to be to reawaken the masculinity of the West, and of America specifically. The result is a problematic text that does little more than epitomize the pop culture history of America after 1950 and impregnate it with the author’s troublesome views. Walsh’s stated theme is to use his case studies to illustrate examples of masculinity: “this book is a testament ... to the concept of manliness itself” (p. 2). However, this waxes and wanes throughout the text. Some chapters, like the ones on Thermopylae and Roncevaux Pass, make frequent recourse to masculinity, while it is largely absent in others, like those on Masada/Warsaw and Rorke’s Drift/Khartoum.

The Compositional Making and Geographic Itinerancies of the Chansons de Roland During the Early and Late Middle Ages. International Journal of European Studies . Vol. 3, No. 1, 2019, pp. 52-66. doi: 10.11648/j.ijes.20190301.19 Received : March 7, 2019; Accepted : April 12, 2019; Published : June 26, 2019 Abstract: The author examines the centripetal compositional forces and the itinerant centrifugal forces that produced the Chanson de Roland and diffused the Chansons de Roland since its remote Nordico-Germanic and Gallo-Roman origins to their wide-scale geographic settlings in western mediaeval Europe. To demonstrate this dual force, the author traces the Figure of a sand-glass which visualizes the first migrating compositional flow from the wide plains of Scandinavia, through sedentarized Gaul and on to the battlefield of Roncevaux Pass, and the second propagating flow from the oldest extant Oxford version to the eight variants which, although scattered over different countries, are very much inter-related since they all drew inspiration from Roland's heroic death at the eventful battle of Roncevaux. The nine versions of the Chanson de Roland founded the mediaeval western European poetic koinê. Keywords: Sand-glass, Centripetal Compositional Forces, Centrifugal Itinerant Forces, Poetic Koinê, Orature values of all her very distinct contributors.
