Story0
Capturing the disbelief, the chaos and the terror of the fateful night the Titanic sank 100 years ago, Titanic on Trial brings to life the tragedy through the voices of those who survived it. Stories about the sinking have become legendary - how the band played to the end, how lifeboats were lowered half-empty - but amongst the films, novels and academic arguments, only those who were there can separate truth from fiction. This book gives the story back to those people.

In this vivid first-person narrative, a Special Operations Joint Terminal Attack Controller (JTAC) and his commanding general give fascinating and detailed accounts of America's fight against one of the most barbaric insurgencies the world has ever seen. In the summer of 2014, three years after America's full troop withdrawal from the Iraq War, President Barack Obama authorized a small task force to push back into Baghdad. Their mission: protect the Iraqi capital and US embassy from a rapidly emerging terrorist threat.

La storia di Roma è la somma di tante storie epiche e memorabili, gesti disperati, eroici, spregiudicati, di protagonisti disposti a tutto pur di affermare la propria ambizione, ma anche il dominio sul mondo di una città capace di superare le più atroci disfatte e le difficoltà più estreme. Gli episodi accertati storicamente non sono meno straordinari di quelli prodotti dal mito, i protagonisti non meno passionali degli dei che veneravano. Dalla cacciata dei re all'aggressione di Pirro, dalle Guerre puniche a quelle civili, da Cesare ad Augusto.

È vero che i vichinghi portavano le corna sull'elmo? Il generale Cambronne a Waterloo apostrofò realmente gli inglesi gridando loro merde? Nel 1410 i polacchi sconfissero i cavalieri teutonici a Tannenberg o a Grunewald? Gli indiani d'America avevano davvero la pelle rossa? Gli spartani della battaglia delle Termopili erano veramente solo trecento? Hitler era tedesco o austriaco? Millenni di storia sono stati tramandati e interpretati spesso attraverso i filtri che le esigenze politiche e culturali dei popoli predominanti e dei loro leader imponevano.

La storia napoletana è legata strettamente alla sua gente e, in particolare, agli scugnizzi. I ragazzi di Napoli sono presenti in ogni epoca: lazzaroni, guagliuni, sciuscià rappresentano il carattere intrinseco e forse l'emblema del popolo partenopeo. Ma dietro la facciata oleografica che li vuole sempre sorridenti e distesi al sole - a cogliere il lato divertente della vita - esistono storie di miseria, di dolore e di degrado.

Cosa si puo dire di Benito Mussolini che non sia gia stato detto? È possibile raccontare la sua parabola politica, dagli esordi come socialista e anarchico alla sua trasformazione in accanito interventista, dalla costituzione dei Fasci di combattimento alla tragica evoluzione in dittatore e all'epilogo in piazzale Loreto? Marco Lucchetti - esperto di storia militare - analizza, attraverso 101 episodi più o meno noti della vita del duce, non soltanto la sua vicenda personale, ma anche le radicali trasformazioni subite dall'Italia durante il Ventennio.

Se c'è una battaglia che ha compromesso in modo definitivo il sogno di gloria di Hitler, è senza dubbio quella di Stalingrado. Dal 23 agosto 1942 al 10 marzo 1943 la VI Armata tedesca, condotta da Paulus, fu inchiodata dal tenace attaccamento dei russi alla città che portava il nome del loro leader. Uno scontro senza esclusione di colpi, con due fronti che si battevano all'ultimo sangue con una sola direttiva: annientare il nemico. Vincitori in estate, i tedeschi vennero però decimati dal terribile inverno russo e dalla strenua opposizione del popolo sovietico.

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.

Se dicessimo: "Piovono gatti e cani", riusciremmo difficilmente a farci capire dal nostro interlocutore. Eppure avremmo semplicemente tradotto alla lettera un modo di dire inglese che indica una pioggia abbondante. Quando si traduce, è fondamentale prestare attenzione non solo alla lettera ma anche al senso di ciò che si intende comunicare.

The remaining US aviation forces, along with the US Air Force and US Navy and Marine aviation assets, would not be easily removed from the battle. For the US forces still in-country, this is an untold story of heroism, dedication, and refusal to yield the battlefield despite being largely considered by US political leaders as "expendable."

We are divided over the history of the United States, and one of the central dividing lines is the frontier. Was it a site of heroism? Or was it where the full force of an all-powerful empire was brought to bear on Native peoples? In this startlingly original work, historian Robert Parkinson presents a new account of ever-shifting encounters between white colonists and Native Americans.

Although he took command of the Army of the Potomac only three days before the first shots were fired at Gettysburg, Union general George G. Meade guided his forces to victory in the Civil War's most pivotal battle. Commentators often dismiss Meade when discussing the great leaders of the Civil War. But in this long-anticipated book, Kent Masterson Brown draws on an expansive archive to reappraise Meade's leadership during the Battle of Gettysburg.

In 1972, America was completing its withdrawal from the long and divisive war in Vietnam. Air power covered the departure of ground forces, and search and rescue teams from all services and Air America covered the airmen and soldiers still in the fight. Day and night these military and civilian aircrews stood alert to respond to "Mayday" calls. The rescue forces were the answer to every man's prayer, and those forces brought home airmen, sailors, marines, and soldiers downed or trapped across the breadth and depth of the entire Southeast Asia theater.

In September 1943, as America began advancing from its foothold on Guadalcanal, a young American airman was lost in heavy weather over the South Pacific on what was expected to be a routine flight. In examining that loss and the events leading up to a rescue attempt on an island in the South Pacific, and bringing together societies utterly alien to each other, Survival in the South Pacific brings together the big themes of the Pacific War.

James Longstreet's countermarch and Samuel Johnston's morning reconnaissance are two of the most enigmatic events of the Battle of Gettysburg. Both have been viewed as major factors in the Confederacy's loss of the battle and, in turn, the war. Yet much of it lies shrouded in mystery. Recognizing the multitude of factors that affect human memory, In the Shadow of the Round Tops explores how the individual soldiers experienced, remembered, and wrote about the battle, and how those memories have created a cloud over James Longstreet's countermarch and Samuel Johnston's reconnaissance.
