Warfare: A Visual History combines historical engravings and diagrams with an engaging modern text to create a visual study of humankind’s extraordinary ingenuity in inventing new ways to wage war.

Название: The Meuse-Argonne 1918: The Right Bank to the Armistice Автор: Maarten Otte Издательство: Pen and Sword Military Год: 2021 Страниц: 288 Язык: английский Формат: epub Размер: 55.3 MB
The Americans had considerable initial success when they launched their huge offensive against the Germans in the Meuse-Argonne in the last days of September 1918. However, not everything went smoothly and the attack became bogged down, held up by the several lines of the Hindenburg System and logistical challenges. A major additional obstacle was the presence of batteries of German artillery on the high ground on the right bank of the Meuse, almost untroubled by any significant assaults by the allied forces. These guns created severe problems for the American commanders and their troops. |

Название: Section D for Destruction: Forerunner of SOE: The Story of Section D of the Secret Intelligence Service Автор: Malcolm Atkin Издательство: Pen and Sword Military Год: 2017 Страниц: 410 Язык: английский Формат: pdf, epub Размер: 10.1 MB
When Neville Chamberlain made his famous Peace in Our Time statement in 1938, after the Munich Agreement with Hitler, he may, or may not, have been aware that the new Section D of the Secret Intelligence Service was already making plans to mount an all-out political and sabotage war against Nazi Germany. This was a new form of warfare, encompassing bribery, black propaganda and sabotage by agents described as having no morals or scruples. To the horror of many, it disregarded the conventions of neutrality and was prepared to hit the Nazi state wherever it could do most damage. Malcolm Atkin reveals how Section D's struggle to build a European wide anti-Nazi resistance movement was met with widespread suspicion from government, to the extent of a systematic destruction of its reputation. It was, however, a key pioneer of irregular warfare that led to the formation of the famous Special Operations Executive (SOE). His study is the first in-depth account of it to be published since the release of previously secret documents to the National Archives. |

Its 1942 and the Nazis are racing to be the first to build a weapon unlike any known before.

Название: Surrogate Warfare: The Transformation of War in the Twenty-First Century Автор: Andreas Krieg and Jean-Marc Rickli Издательство: Georgetown University Press Год: 2019 Страниц: 244 Язык: английский Формат: pdf, epub Размер: 10.2 MB
Surrogate Warfare explores the emerging phenomenon of "surrogate warfare" in twenty-first century conflict. The popular notion of war is that it is fought en masse by the people of one side versus the other. But the reality today is that both state and non-state actors are increasingly looking to shift the burdens of war to surrogates. Surrogate warfare describes a patron's outsourcing of the strategic, operational, or tactical burdens of warfare, in whole or in part, to human and/or technological substitutes in order to minimize the costs of war. This phenomenon ranges from arming rebel groups, to the use of armed drones, to cyber propaganda. Krieg and Rickli bring old, related practices such as war by mercenary or proxy under this new overarching concept. Apart from analyzing the underlying sociopolitical drivers that trigger patrons to substitute or supplement military action, this book looks at the intrinsic trade-offs between substitutions and control that shapes the relationship between patron and surrogate. Will be essential reading for anyone studying contemporary conflict. |
