During the multinational occupation of post-World War II Germany, Stalin decided to make the Allied hold on West Berlin untenable by shutting down all the overland routes used to keep the city supplied. The choice faced by the Allies was a stark one—let Berlin fall, or risk war with the Soviets by breaking the Soviet stranglehold.

The fate of the American Revolution had yet to be decided when a remarkable 21-year-old Frenchman arrived in America. Louis-François-Bertrand, the Count of Lauberdière, belonged to an old noble family that traced its heritage back to the Crusades. His father, François-Charles-Mathieu, was musketeer of the guard of King Louis XV. More important, his uncle was General Rochambeau, the commander of all French forces in America.

Название: Secret Weapons of World War II Автор: Gerald Pawle Издательство: Ballantine Books Год: 1967 Формат: PDF Страниц: 380 Размер: 67,5 МБ Язык: Английский
This is a well-written compendium of the scientists and the many weapons and other items developed by Britain's 'Directorate of Miscellaneous Weapon Development' during World War Two. The group, sometimes called the 'Wheezers and Dodgers,' were key players in inventing weapons such as the Hedgehog mortar for use against German submarines, the Oerlikon anti-aircraft gun, the bizarre Panjandrum intended to destroy beach defenses, various types of rockets, and the Holman Projector, a compressed-air grenade launcher.

Название: Redcoats and Rebels: The American Revolution Through British Eyes Автор: Christopher Hibbert Издательство: W.W. Norton & Company Год: 1990 Формат: PDF Страниц: 424 Размер: 63,8 МБ Язык: Английский
The story of this war has usually been told in terms of a conflict between blundering British generals and their rigidly disciplined red-coated troops on the one side and heroic American patriots in their homespun shirts and coonskin caps on the other. In this fresh, compelling narrative, Christopher Hibbert portrays the realities of a war that raged the length of an entire continent—a war that thousands of George Washington's fellow countrymen condemned and that he came close to losing.

Название: Japan's Secret Weapon: The Kata Factor Автор: Boye De Mente Издательство: Phoenix Books Год: 1990 Формат: PDF Страниц: 200 Размер: 28,3 МБ Язык: Английский
Kata [kah-tah], which translates as “form, process, way of doing things,” is the Rosetta stone of Japan’s traditional culture – the key that unlocked both the mystery and the mystique associated with how the Japanese did business and conducted their personal and professional affairs. Expressed another way, kata were the cultural molds that created and controlled the traditional behavior of the Japanese and were the source of both their strengths and weaknesses.

Nazi Germany had a head start in the science and technologies that dramatically transformed armed conflict in the twentieth century, leading to ultimate weapons of mass destruction, and the means of delivering them, ballistic missiles. John Cornwell's powerful history tells the story of Germany's scientists, from Hitler's rise to power in 1933 to his fall in 1945. He describes the behaviour of researchers in the huge span of scientific disciplines in which Germany excelled and led the world. Some were Nazi enthusiasts, many more were fellow travellers.
