On the 14th of August 1941, a Polish monk named Maximilian Maria Kolbe was murdered in Auschwitz. Kolbe's life had been remarkable. Fiercely intelligent and driven, he founded a movement of Catholicism and spent several years in Nagasaki, ministering to the 'hidden Christians' who had emerged after centuries of oppression. A Polish nationalist as well as a monk, he gave sanctuary to fleeing refugees and his death was no less remarkable: he volunteered to die, saving the life of a fellow prisoner. It was an act that profoundly transformed the lives of two Japanese men.

Il 20 settembre 1943 alle quindici e trenta un manipolo di ufficiali nazisti varca la soglia di palazzo Koch, elegante sede della Banca d'Italia. Fra loro c'è il tenente colonnello delle ss Herbert Kappler, comandante dello spionaggio hitleriano. I tedeschi presentano le loro richieste al governatore Vincenzo Azzolini: vogliono l'oro della Banca d'Italia, tutto l'oro. In quel momento, nei suoi caveau, l'istituto di via Nazionale ne custodisce quasi 120 tonnellate.

Dans l'ombre de la Seconde Guerre mondiale, le voyage de Raymond Heymann, d'une vie tranquille en Alsace au cœur de la Résistance française, se déroule dans ce récit captivant. Né dans une famille juive profondément enracinée dans l'identité française, la jeunesse de Raymond, riche en culture et en traditions, est brisée par le début de la guerre. Plongé dans un monde où la survie dépend du secret et du courage, il doit naviguer dans les complexités de l'occupation, de la trahison et de la quête incessante de la liberté.

Story
Osamah Khalil argues that the militarization of US domestic and foreign affairs was the product of America's failure in Vietnam. Unsettled by their inability to prevail in Southeast Asia, US leaders increasingly came to see a host of problems as immune to political solutions. Rather, crime, drugs, and terrorism were enemies spawned in "badlands"—whether the Middle East or stateside inner cities. Characterized as sites of endemic violence, badlands lay beyond the pale of civilization, their ostensibly racially and culturally alien inhabitants best handled by force.

How to Start a War is unlike any audiobook you’ve ever listened to. Adapted from the popular podcast miniseries of the same name, Michael Trapani immerses listeners in the dramatic events that led to the crime of the century – World War II and the Holocaust – documenting the actions of the criminals who carried it out. Listeners will feel like they are in the room as some of history’s most villainous characters plot to overthrow democracy, impose tyranny, and outmaneuver those who had the power to stop them.

Story
The Luzon campaign of 1945 was the longest island campaign of the Pacific War, lasting from January 1945 to September 1945, and only ended with the surrender of Imperial Japan. It is often overlooked or mentioned in passing by most histories of that war, yet hundreds of thousands of Americans and Japanese fought in some of the worst conditions imaginable for eight months to clear Luzon of the invaders.

Story
Populist rage, ideological fracture, economic and technological shocks, geopolitical dangers and an international system studded with catastrophic risk — the early decades of the 21st century may be one of the most revolutionary periods in modern history. But they are not the first. Humans have lived, and thrived, through more than one great realignment. What makes an age a revolutionary one? And how do they end? In this major new work, Fareed Zakaria masterfully investigates eras that have shattered and shaped humanity.
