When the apprentices of a Paris printing shop in the 1730sheld a series of mock trials and then hanged all the cats theycould lay their hands on, why did they find it so hilariously funnythat they choked with laughter when they reenacted it in pantomimesome twenty times? Why in the eighteenth-century version of LittleRed Riding Hood did the wolf eat the child at the end? What did theanonymous townsman of Montpelier have in mind when he kept anexhaustive dossier on all the activities of his native city? Theseare some of the provocative questions Robert Darnton answers inthis classic work of European history in what we like to call TheAge of Enlightenment.
In The Wall Street Journal, Victor Davis Hanson named With theOld Breed one of the top five books on epic twentieth-centurybattles. Studs Terkel interviewed the author for his definitiveoral history, The Good War. Now E. B. Sledge’s acclaimedfirst-person account of fighting at Peleliu and Okinawa returns tothrill, edify, and inspire a new generation. An Alabama boy steeped in American history and enamored of suchheroes as George Washington and Daniel Boone, Eugene B. Sledgebecame part of the war’s famous 1st Marine Division–3d Battalion,5th Marines. Even after intense training, he was shocked to bethrown into the battle of Peleliu, where “the world was a nightmareof flashes, explosions, and snapping bullets.” By the time Sledgehit the hell of Okinawa, he was a combat vet, still filled withfear but no longer with panic. Based on notes Sledge secretly kept in a copy of the NewTestament, With the Old Breed captures with utter simplicity andsearing honesty the experience of a soldier
Each year, the Commandant of the U.S. Marine Corps selects onebook that he believes is both relevant and timeless for reading byall Marines. The Commandant's choice for 1993 was We Were SoldiersOnce . . . and Young. In November 1965, some 450 men of the 1st Battalion, 7th Cavalry,under the command of Lt. Col. Hal Moore, were dropped by helicopterinto a small clearing in the Ia Drang Valley. They were immediatelysurrounded by 2,000 North Vietnamese soldiers. Three days later,only two and a half miles away, a sister battalion was chopped topieces. Together, these actions at the landing zones X-Ray andAlbany constituted one of the most savage and significant battlesof the Vietnam War. How these men persevered--sacrificed themselves for theircomrades and never gave up--makes a vivid portrait of war at itsmost inspiring and devastating. General Moore and Joseph Galloway,the only journalist on the ground throughout the fighting, haveinterviewed hundreds of men who fought there, including the Nort

This is a book aboutGermans and Jews, about power and money. It is a book focused onBismarck and Bleichroder, Junker and Jew, statesman and banker,collaborators for over thirty years. The setting is that of aGermany where two worlds clashed: the new world of capitalism andan earlier world with its ancient feudal ethos; gradually a new andbroadened elite emerged, and Bismarck's tie with Bleichroderepitomized that regrouping. It is the story of the founding of thenew German Empire, in whose midst a Jewish minority rose toembattled prominence.
Presented in one comprehensive volume, this is the Civil Waras it really was-the forces and events that caused it, the soldiersand civilians who fought it, and the ideas and values that are itslegacy today.
“An elegant synthesis done by the leading scholar in the field,which nicely integrates the work on the American Revolution overthe last three decades but never loses contact with the older,classic questions that we have been arguing about for over twohundred years.” -Joseph J. Ellis, author of Founding Brothers A magnificent account of the revolution in arms and consciousnessthat gave birth to the American republic. When Abraham Lincoln sought to define the significance of theUnited States, he naturally looked back to the American Revolution.He knew that the Revolution not only had legally created the UnitedStates, but also had produced all of the great hopes and values ofthe American people. Our noblest ideals and aspirations-ourcommitments to freedom, constitutionalism, the well-being ofordinary people, and equality-came out of the Revolutionary era.Lincoln saw as well that the Revolution had convinced Americansthat they were a special people with a special destiny to lead theworld toward liberty.
The Hellenistic Age chronicles the years 336 to 30 BCE, aperiod that witnessed the overlap of two of antiquity’s greatcivilizations, the Greek and the Roman. Peter Green’s remarkablyfar-ranging study covers the prevalent themes and events of thosecenturies: the Hellenization, by Alexander’s conquests, of animmense swath of the known world; the lengthy and chaotic partitionof this empire by rival Macedonian bands; the decline of thecity-state as the predominant political institution; and, finally,Rome’s moment of transition from republican to imperial rule. It isa story of war and power-politics, and of the developing fortunesof art, science, and statecraft, spun by an accomplished classicistwith an uncanny knack for infusing life into the distant past, andapplying fresh insights that make ancient history seem alarminglyrelevant to our own times. “Spectacular . . .
