This stimulating book asks key questions about the twentiethcentury's leading American generals and, by analysing theircharacter and personality, outlines the qualities which went intomaking officers such as Patton, Eisenhower and Schwarzkopfdistinctive and successful in combat. Based on frank discussionsand interviews with American generals and their staffs, and adetailed analytical study of official records and personalrecollections, American Generalship pinpoints how well eachparticular general responded to the demands of war in World War II,Korea, Vietnam and the Gulf War. Edgar Puryear examines how eachcommander stood up to the heavy responsibility of command, overcamethe rigours of campaign and performed on the field of battle. Heconcludes that, despite different techniques and conditions,outstanding American generals all had 'character' in common andshone because of their personal qualities and strength ofpersonality.

One of our most provocative military historians, Victor DavisHanson has given us painstakingly researched and pathbreakingaccounts of wars ranging from classical antiquity to thetwenty-first century. Now he juxtaposes an ancient conflict withour most urgent modern concerns to create his most engrossing workto date, A War Like No Other. Over the course of a generation, the Hellenic city-states ofAthens and Sparta fought a bloody conflict that resulted in thecollapse of Athens and the end of its golden age. Thucydides wrotethe standard history of the Peloponnesian War, which has givenreaders throughout the ages a vivid and authoritative narrative.But Hanson offers readers something new: a complete chronologicalaccount that reflects the political background of the time, thestrategic thinking of the combatants, the misery of battle inmultifaceted theaters, and important insight into how these eventsecho in the present. Hanson compellingly portrays the ways Athens and Sparta fought onland and se

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 . . .

Ben Macintyre’s Agent Zigzag was hailed as “rollicking,spellbinding” ( New York Times ), “wildly improbable butentirely true” ( Entertainment Weekly ), and, quite simply,“the best book ever written” ( Boston Globe ). In his newbook, Operation Mincemeat , he tells an extraordinary storythat will delight his legions of fans. In 1943, from a windowless basement office in London, two brilliantintelligence officers conceived a plan that was both simple andcomplicated— Operation Mincemeat. The purpose? To deceive the Nazisinto thinking that Allied forces were planning to attack southernEurope by way of Greece or Sardinia, rather than Sicily, as theNazis had assumed, and the Allies ultimately chose. Charles Cholmondeley of MI5 and the British naval intelligenceofficer Ewen Montagu could not have been more different.Cholmondeley was a dreamer seeking adventure. Montagu was anaristocratic, detail-oriented barrister. But together they were theperfect team and created an ingenious plan: Get a corp

Internationally renowned as the greatest authority on the French Revolution, Georges Lefebvre combined impeccable scholarship with a lively writing style. His masterly overview of the history of the French Revolution has taken its rightful place as the definitive account.

In tracing the web of intrigues and influences that transpired as the French Revolution, Lefebvre illuminates the fundamentals of historical interpretation and, at the same time, tells a story that will compel every reader.

Spans the globe and the centuries to explore the way ideasshape the conduct of warfare Drawing on examples from Europe, theMiddle East, South Asia, East Asia, and America, John A. Lynnchallenges the belief that technology has been the dominantinfluence on combat from ancient times to the present. In battle,ideas can be more far more important than bullets or bombs. Carlvon Clausewitz proclaimed that war is politics, but even morebasically, war is culture. The hard reality of armed conflict isformed by - and, in turn, forms - a culture's values, assumptions,and expectations about fighting. The author examines therelationship between the real and the ideal, arguing that feedbackbetween the two follows certain discernible paths. Battle rejectsthe currently fashionable notion of a 'Western way of warfare' andreplaces it with more nuanced concepts of varied and evolvingcultural patterns of combat. After considering history, Lynnfinally asks how the knowledge gained might illuminate ourunderstanding of the w

“Admirers of FDR credit his New Deal with restoring theAmerican economy after the disastrous contraction of 1929—33. Truthto tell–as Powell demonstrates without a shadow of a doubt–the NewDeal hampered recovery from the contraction, prolonged and added tounemployment, and set the stage for ever more intrusive and costlygovernment. Powell’s analysis is thoroughly documented, relying onan impressive variety of popular and academic literature bothcontemporary and historical.” – Milton Friedman , Nobel Laureate, Hoover Institution “There is a critical and often forgotten difference betweendisaster and tragedy. Disasters happen to us all, no matter what wedo. Tragedies are brought upon ourselves by hubris. The Depressionof the 1930s would have been a brief disaster if it hadn’t been forthe national tragedy of the New Deal. Jim Powell has proventhis.” – P.J.

This is the classic book on war as we know it. During his longlife, Basil H. Liddell Hart was considered one of the world'sforemost military thinkers--a man generally regarded as the"Clausewitz of the 20th century." Liddell Hart stressed movement, flexibilty, surprise. He saw thatin most military campaigns dislocation of the enemy's psychologicaland physical balance is prelude to victory. This dislocationresults from a strategic indirect approach. Reflect for a moment onthe results of direct confrontation (trench war in WW I) versusindirect dislocation (Blitzkreig in WW II). Liddell Hart is alsotonic for business and political planning: just change thevocabulary and his concepts fit. "The most important book by one of the outstanding militaryauthorities of our time."

Mann is well aware that much of the history he relates isnecessarily speculative, the product of pot-shard interpretationand precise scientific measurements that often end up beingradically revised in later decades. But the most compelling of hiseye-opening revisionist stories are among the best-founded: thestories of early American-European contact. To many of those whowere there, the earliest encounters felt more like a meeting ofequals than one of natural domination. And those who came later andfound an emptied landscape that seemed ripe for the taking, Mannargues convincingly, encountered not the natural and unchangingstate of the native American, but the evidence of a suddencalamity: the ravages of what was likely the greatest epidemic inhuman history, the smallpox and other diseases introducedinadvertently by Europeans to a population without immunity, whichswept through the Americas faster than the explorers who broughtit, and left behind for their discovery a land that held only ashadow of the
