The story of the Combahee River Raid, one of Harriet Tubman's most extraordinary accomplishments, based on original documents and written by a descendant of one of the participants: Edda L. Fields-Black shows how Tubman commanded a ring of spies, scouts, and pilots and participated in military expeditions behind Confederate lines. On June 2, 1863, Tubman and her crew piloted two regiments of Black US Army soldiers, the Second South Carolina Volunteers, and their white commanders up coastal South Carolina's Combahee River in three gunboats.

A powerful, moving memoir - and a practical guide to healing - written by Dr. Edith Eva Eger, an eminent psychologist whose own experiences as a Holocaust survivor help her treat patients and allow them to escape the prisons of their own minds. The Choice weaves Eger's personal story with case studies from her work as a psychologist. Her patients and their stories illustrate different phases of healing and show how people can choose to escape the prisons they construct in their minds and find freedom, regardless of circumstance.

On November 29, 1943, as the Allies’ primary leaders met in Tehran, President Franklin Delano Roosevelt described to Soviet leader Joseph Stalin his idea for the organization that would become the United Nations. The American president suggested that the active arm of the organization be “the Four Policemen”: the U.S., USSR, UK, and China. Stalin agreed with much of the framework in principle, but asserted that China likely would not possess the strength after the war to assist.

By 1943, Adolf Hitler had realised that the German Army was no longer capable of fighting an offensive war. The army was short of men, guns and tanks, and the Luftwaffe could not afford to lose more aircraft. Consequently, when Hitler flew to his forward headquarters in Ukraine in February 1943, he brought with him a clear message: the German Army would no longer go on the offensive. For the next year, it would instead defend its positions and let the Red Army exhaust itself in futile attacks. As we know, that's not how history turned out.

Ende 1944 wird der 16-jährige HJler zu einer Grundausbildung der Wehrmacht nach Böhmen geschickt, im März 1945 wird er für die «Kampfgruppe Böhmen in der SS-Panzergrenadierdivision Hitlerjugend» rekrutiert. Einen Monat später werden die Jungen an die Front bei Wien geschickt. Das Kind kämpft und tötet – und gerät in sowjetische Gefangenschaft. Es beginnt eine jahrelange Odyssee durch diverse Lager im Baltikum und in Russland. Erst 1950 kehrt er nach Hamburg zurück, von jeglicher patriotischer Abenteuerlust kuriert.

The regiment’s career commenced with an ignominious defeat in its initial engagement on the South Carolina coast at Port Royal Sound in 1861. This demoralizing event could have set the regiment on a trajectory of self-fulfilling failure and catastrophe.

Après Dans le jardin de la bête et La Splendeur et l'Infamie, le nouveau chef-d'œuvre d'Erik Larson ! 6 novembre 1860 : Abraham Lincoln devient président des États-Unis. Cinq mois plus tard, la guerre de Sécession commence. Si, durant cette période, la crise est alimentée par les positions du Nord et du Sud sur l'esclavage, la fracture s'avère beaucoup plus profonde au sein du pays. En quelques semaines, les opinions se font inconciliables au sein même des familles, les discussions deviennent impossibles, les conflits se multiplient, les amitiés et les couples se déchirent.

These narratives highlight various leadership styles, the importance of effective communication, the dynamics of team building, and the art of decision-making—essential skills that remain relevant in today's world.

Hans Schiller was a seventeen-year-old student in Bromberg, Prussia, when World War I broke out in August 1914. He enlisted in the German army and was assigned to an artillery unit on the Eastern Front. From 1915 to 1917, Schiller saw action in what is now Latvia, Lithuania, and Poland. After the Bolshevik Revolution in October 1917 and Russia's withdrawal from the war, Schiller was transferred to the Western Front. He arrived in time for Germany's last great offensive in the west.

El verano de 1945, William Shawn, director ejecutivo de The New Yorker, habló con el reportero John Hersey sobre la idea de publicar un relato que ilustrara la dimensión humana de los efectos de la bomba atómica en Hiroshima, pues le causaba estupor comprobar que, pese a la gran cantidad de información sobre la bomba que recibían, se estaba ignorando lo que realmente había ocurrido en Hiroshima. El reportero aceptó el encargo.

The Battle for Hong Kong seems lost in the shadow of other battles in Southeast Asia, such as Malaya, Singapore, Burma, and the Philippines. But while the Japanese invasion of Hong Kong Island lasted just one week from 18-25 December 1941, it was highlighted by horrific atrocities involving wounded Allied soldiers, and medical doctors, nurses, orderlies and patients. None worse than the massacre at St Stephen's College, which had transformed into a makeshift hospital.

Reporterskie śledztwo podążające „ścieżką szczurów" znaną z „Akt Odessy". Autor, poszukując związków pomiędzy III Rzeszą a dyktaturami południowoamerykańskimi, staje w progu bezpiecznej kryjówki jednego z najbardziej poszukiwanych i nigdy nieodnalezionych niemieckich nazistów, Josefa Mengelego – zwanego „Aniołem Śmierci" lub „Mefisto z Auschwitz". Ilu podobnych do niego, choć mniej znanych, uniknęło międzynarodowej sprawiedliwości po II wojnie światowej? Ilu powróciło po latach do Niemiec ze złotem zrabowanym ofiarom hitlerowskiego terroru?

In diesem Tagebuch steigen wir wieder in das Cockpit eines Jagdflugzeuges. Luftkämpfe, Abschüsse und der Verlust von Kameraden zeichnen den Weg dieses Jagdfliegers, der 1943 seinen ersten Feindflug im Osten erlebte und dann schnell lernen musste, wie die Deutsche Luftwaffe sich zu Tode siegte. Dieser Erlebnisbericht schildert schonungslos die Strapazen und Härten, die diese jungen Männer in der Blüte ihres Lebens durchstehen mussten und zeigt auch die katastrophalen Versorgungsengpässe in der Luftwaffe und die teilweise überstürzten Rückzüge an der Ostfront.

Nicht weit des ostpreußischen Rastenburg, des heutigen Ketrzyn in Polen, befand sich ein zentraler Ort des Zweiten Weltkriegs: das »Führerhauptquartier Wolfsschanze«. Dort verbrachte Adolf Hitler nach dem Angriff auf die Sowjetunion den Großteil seiner Zeit. Dort wurde über die systematische Ermordung der europäischen Juden entschieden. Dort ereignete sich am 20. Juli 1944 das Stauffenberg-Attentat, das der Diktator nur leicht verletzt überlebte. Auf der Basis von Zeitzeugnissen und bislang unveröffentlichten Dokumenten rekonstruiert Felix Bohr den Alltag in der »Wolfsschanze«.

La Seconde Guerre mondiale a été menée derrière les lignes ennemies par une armée du silence. Cette armée, c'est celle des réseaux de Résistance pilotés par les services secrets de la France libre et des Alliés. Leurs missions : recueil et transmission de renseignements, émissions radio clandestines, opérations secrètes et sabotages. Ces réseaux (Comète, Alliance, Saint-Jacques…) sont des acteurs majeurs de la victoire finale contre l'oppression nazie et fasciste. Leurs secrets ont été conservés dans des archives, ouvertes récemment.

This important book traces the evolution of grassroots social movement in the former German Democratic Republic (GDR) and reveals the democratically spirited, subversive forms of communication practiced behind the Wall before it fell in 1989. From the political jokes shared in private, to the informational events, underground publications, and weekly "peace prayers" that were sheltered by Evangelical-Lutheran churches, to the demonstrations of 1989, to the onslaught of exposé work after the Wall fell, East Germans resisted and rebelled in many humble but brilliant ways.

The Civil War battle waged on September 17, 1862, at Antietam Creek, Maryland, was one of the bloodiest in the nation's history: On this single day, the battle claimed nearly 23,000 casualties. In Landscape Turned Red, the renowned historian Stephen Sears draws on a remarkable cache of diaries, dispatches, and letters to recreate the vivid drama of Antietam as experienced not only by its leaders but also by its soldiers, both Union and Confederate.

D-Day marked the start of the Battle for Normandy, which in turn led to the liberation of Nazi-occupied Europe and the defeat of Germany. Although it is seen as an unqualified success, the Battle for Normandy was a much more closely fought affair. It wasn’t until the 1970s that details of the Allies' top-secret and audacious deception plan emerged.

There have been volumes of books written about the development of US airpower and the technological specifications of each American or Allied aircraft. This is not one of them. This book focuses on the young men who answered the call to duty and were literally transformed from “farm boys to fighter pilots.”
