Hobart's reputation as an armored warfare specialist began in the pre-war era. In 1923 he transferred from the Royal Engineers to the Royal Tank Corps and quickly established himself as one of the foremost thinkers on armored warfare. By 1938 he was GOC Mobile Division, later 7th Armoured Division, in Egypt. Unable to suffer fools at all, he was relieved of his command (sacked!) in 1939, retired in 1940 and became a corporal in the Home Guard.At Winston Churchill's inspired behest, he was ordered to create and command 11th Armoured Division. Although he trained the new division to a very high standard, he was seen as too old to lead it in action he was 57. Instead he was told to form 79th Armoured Division and design specialized armored vehicles necessary to breach the Atlantic Wall. The Division played a major part in the D-Day landings and the subsequent campaign in NW Europe. Hobart's Funnies included mine-clearing tanks, bridge-carrying tanks, flamethrowers, swimming tanks and amphibious assault vehicles.Brigades and units of the Division were deployed wherever they were needed by Second (British) and First (Canadian) Armies and no major operation between Normandy and the final victory took place without them present.Percy Hobart's skills played a significant part in the final Allied victory and the lasting tribute to that vision was the adoption by all armies of the specialized funnies that his Division introduced to modern warfare.This book is based on official records, published materials and personal recollections.

The author, Bill Hancock, writes of the history of his home town, Hobart, OK.

Beginning in the late 1700s with Peter Hobart, members of his family maintained an architectural firm in Mobile, Alabama, until the last of the line, C. L. Hutchisson Jr., retired in 1967. Over this nearly 200-year span, the Hobart-Hutchisson family of architects designed and built at least 1088 structures in Mobile, a seaport with French, Spanish, and Colonial influences that thrived even before Alabama became a state. These private residences, churches, government and commercial buildings, medical and educational facilities, and even mausoleums provide a unique visual record of the changes in one community's architectural styles and construction methods. The author, an art and architectural historian, supplements her readable account with more than 250 photographs, elevations, maps, drawings, and sketches.

Copper Country Journal brings to life a culture and community long since passed from the American landscape. It includes a wealth of information, both within the introduction and throughout the diary, about the copper industry from 1845-1865. Hobart centered his narrative on Cliff Mine, one of the leading producers of copper in the world and the primary employer in the town of Clifton.
