M. R. James (1862-1936) was provost of King's College, Cambridge, and Eton College. He was a highly regarded scholar and academic but is today remembered for his ghost stories, which are considered among the finest in the genre.

Code Name Angelique looks at military gliders. When the subject was first broached, I thought this was an insane idea. Gliders were last used in 1965 when the Soviet Union got rid of theirs. But who among military history lovers do not recall the 1944 D-Day Allied glider landings? Or Germany’s attack on Crete the year before in 1943? As I examined the concept, I quickly realised that gliders can either be conventional or unconventional in use, i.e. the 1940 attack on the Belgian fort Eben Emael which opened the way for the German infantry, was done by assault pioneers who were delivered ...

Ghost stories by M. R. James are pretty varied, and based on the genre of Gothic novels. The plot of "Oh, Whistle, and I'll Come to You, My Lad" is unveiled when Professor Parkins finds a whistle engraved with a Latin inscription... and blows it.

Once again, well-chosen voices, superb music, and original cover-graphics serve to enhance the feel of the stories.
