This thought-provoking book is the last work of Ronald Lewin, one of England's most distinguished military historians.

In this book Lewin displays a sure grasp of the complicated makeup of one of the greatest evil geniuses of our time. Based on an impressive and wide-ranging study of many sources unfamiliar to the general reader, Hitler's Mistakes is an eminently readable and important work of history.

 Название: Leeds Rifles: The Prince of Wales's Own Автор: Andrew J Kirk Издательство: Pen and Sword ISBN: 1526711486 Год: 2018 Формат: EPUB, PDF (conv) Страниц: 376 Размер: 13,7 МБ Язык: Английский
The Leeds Rifles is a detailed chronicle of the four Battalions of Riflemen who left Leeds for the Western Front. In 1914, just as now, they were more numerous and less fashionable than the City Battalion, The Pals and their full war time story has never been told. This volume describes their volunteer origins and how they came to be woven into the social fabric of Leeds from where they drew their enduring esprit de corps, discipline and resolve.

Название: Renia’s Diary: A Holocaust Journal Автор: Renia Spiegel Издательство: St. Martin’s Press Год: 2019 Формат: PDF Страниц: 464 Размер: 10 Mb Язык: English
The long-hidden diary of a young Polish woman's last days during the Holocaust, translated for the first time into English, with a foreword from American Holocaust historian Deborah Lipstadt. Renia Spiegel was a young girl from an upper-middle class Jewish family living on an estate in Stawki, Poland, near what was at that time the border with Romania. In the summer of 1939, Renia and her sister Elizabeth (née Ariana) were visiting their grandparents in Przemysl, right before the Germans invaded Poland. Like Anne Frank, Renia recorded her days in her beloved diary. She also filled it with beautiful original poetry. Her diary records how she grew up, fell in love, and was rounded up by the invading Nazis and forced to move to the ghetto in Przemsyl with all the other Jews. By luck, Renia's boyfriend Zygmund was able to find a tenement for Renia to hide in with his parents and took her out of the ghetto. This is all described in the Diary, as well as the tragedies that befell her family and her ultimate fate in 1942, as written in by Zygmund on the Diary's final page. |
