Снайперское движение в Красной армии началось в самые отчаянные дни войны, осенью 1941-го, на Ленинградском фронте. В 1943 году в составе действующей армии появились первые женские снайперские взводы. На счету у многих «ангелов мщения» были десятки убитых врагов. Не всем этим девушкам довелось дожить до конца войны. Те, кому повезло, вернулись, совсем еще молодыми, к жизни обычных советских женщин. И все же главным событием их жизни стала Великая Отечественная.

Nach langen Jahren sowjetischer Kriegsgefangenschaft kehrt Toni im Herbst 1955 in seine Heimatstadt Jena zurück, er ist einer der letzten Zehntausend, die aus den russischen Lagern entlassen werden.

How did an obscure agitator on the political fringes of early-20th-century Germany rise to become the supreme leader of the "Third Reich"? Unlike many other books that track Adolf Hitler's career after 1933, this book focuses on his formative period—immediately following World War I (1918-1924). The author, a veteran producer of historical documentaries, brings to life this era of political unrest and violent conflict, when forces on both the left and right were engaged in a desperate power struggle.

Blitzkrieg explores one of the most revolutionary military strategies of the twentieth century—a method of war that stunned nations, shattered armies, and reshaped the rules of conflict. This deeply engaging and accessible book uncovers how speed, coordination, and surprise became the most lethal combination in modern warfare.

At the centre of this storm was a tactical approach known as Blitzkrieg, or “lightning war.”

In the summer of 1940, darkness was falling over Europe. Led by Winston Churchill, the British rediscovered the virtues that had made a humble people the rulers of the world. In June 1940, Winston Churchill called the battle Britain's "finest hour", and he was right.

By 1942, Churchill faced a vastly different war than the one he'd inherited from Neville Chamberlain. Britain was no longer alone; the Soviets were now an unlikely ally in the East, and Pearl Harbor had finally pushed America into action. In Advance Britannia, historian Alan Allport reveals the war as it was lived - from the battlefields to the ration books, in the War Ministry and in the air raid shelters. Mixing social history with dramatic storytelling, this is a definitive account of the war that reshaped the world.

We all learned the story. Now it’s time to hear what actually happened. 1776: The Revolution is a piercing, unfiltered journey into the founding of the United States. What really happened in the meeting rooms, the battlefields, and the parchment scrolls of the so-called land of the free? What was written in ink—and what was left out by design? This is a time capsule. A mirror. A warning label. Because the revolution never ended. We just stopped asking who it was for.

In The Devil's Castle, Susanne Paola Antonetta weaves a haunting narrative that confronts the darkest chapters of psychiatric history while offering a bold vision for the future of mental health care. In 1939, the eugenics movement growing throughout the West did its worst in Nazi Germany. Through the Aktion T4 euthanasia program, five asylums and an abandoned jail were transformed into gas chambers. Tens of thousands of lives—predominantly adults with neuropsychiatric conditions—were extinguished in those structures, ultimately paving the way for the horrors of the Holocaust.
