«Sì, la guerra avanza rombando verso Berlino. Ciò che ieri era ancora un brontolio lontano, oggi è un tambureggiare continuo... Viviamo dentro un cerchio di bocche di fuoco che si restringe di ora in ora». L'autrice ha voluto restare anonima da quando il libro vide per la prima volta la luce negli anni Cinquanta e fu accolto, soprattutto in Germania, con un senso di fastidio, anzi, di esplicito rifiuto. Decise allora di vietarne ogni riedizione finché fosse rimasta in vita. Solo dopo la sua morte, avvenuta nel 2001, Hans M. Enzensberger ebbe l'autorizzazione a riproporlo.

With a new century and a new enemy came a new kind of war: low intensity and civilian-dominated, blending austere rural and dense urban environments alike. Into this new kind of war, the American military launched two invasions against terrorist networks and military rivals, relying on airpower—close air support (CAS)—at a scale never before seen.

Rarely has a book had such an impact on so many of us here at Ignatius Press. It is one of the most powerful and moving books we have come across. If you can only buy one book this season, this must be the one. Here is the astonishing true story of the harrowing experiences of a young German seminarian drafted into Hitler’s dreaded SS at the onset of World War II.

World War II was more than just a clash of armies—it was a battle of ideologies, economies, and strategies on a global scale. It was the deadliest conflict in human history, involving more than 30 countries and resulting in the deaths of an estimated 70 to 85 million people, including both military personnel and civilians. For a time, it seemed as though Nazi Germany, led by Adolf Hitler, might succeed in reshaping the world according to its vision. Germany’s early victories stunned observers and instilled fear across Europe.

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.

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.

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.
