Anne Frank, it has been said, gave a face and a name to the horror of the Holocaust. This is her story.

Anne, just 13 when the family moved in and only 15 when the Gestapo at last broke down the doors of her secret world, found hope where there was only fear and the first blush of love when outside and all around there washed a sea of hate.

Widely regarded as a classic on the Vietnam War, Decent Interval provides a scathing critique of the CIA's role in and final departure from that conflict. Still the most detailed and respected account of America's final days in Vietnam, the book was written at great risk and ultimately at great sacrifice by an author who believed in the CIA's cause but was disillusioned by the agency's treacherous withdrawal, leaving thousands of Vietnamese allies to the mercy of an angry enemy.

As the brigade he commanded attacked a Confederate battery on a hill outside Petersburg in July 1864, a bursting shell blew Col. Joshua L. Chamberlain from the saddle and wounded his horse. After the enemy battery skedaddled, the brigade took the hill and dug in, and up came supporting Union guns. Chamberlain figured the day’s fighting ended. Then an unidentified senior officer ordered his brigade to charge and capture the heavily defended main Confederate line.

Winston Churchill famously remarked that the threat of the German U-Boats was the only thing that had “really frightened” him during World War II. The U-Boats certainly claimed a bitter harvest among Allied shipping: nearly 3,000 ships were sunk, for a total tonnage of over 14 million tonnes, nearly 70% of Allied shipping losses in all theatres of the war. With justification, then, they are an integral part of the traditional narrative of the Battle of the Atlantic; a story of technological brilliance, dramatic sinkings, life and death, and the sinister threat of the U-Boats themselves.

Monatelang brandete 1945 eine Selbstmordwelle durch Deutschland, die Tausende - Frauen, Männer und Kinder - in den Untergang riss.

Aus der Sicht derer, die das unfassbare Geschehen selbst miterlebt haben, erzählt der Historiker Florian Huber von dem größten Massenselbstmord der deutschen Geschichte und seiner Verdrängung durch die Überlebenden – ein fesselnder Blick auf die Gefühle der kleinen Leute, die in ihren Untergang marschierten.

In this comprehensive history, Stanley Karnow demystifies the tragic ordeal of America's war in Vietnam. The book's central theme is that America's leaders, prompted as much by domestic politics as by global ambitions, carried the United States into Southeast Asia with little regard for the realities of the region. Karnow elucidates the decision-making process in Washington and Asia and recounts the political and military events that occurred after the Americans arrived in Vietnam.

In the 1970s, a group of revolutionaries terrorized the West with intricately planned plane hijackings and hostage missions. They sought to champion Palestinian liberation and topple Western imperialism, coordinating violent attacks that caught governments weak-kneed on a widely televised stage. Among them were the unflappable young Leila Khaled sporting jewelry made from AK-47 ammunition, the Cuban-cigar smoking Carlos the Jackal with his penchant for brandy and unbuttoned shirts, and the radical leftists of the Baader-Meinhof Gang.
