 Название: De Gaulle Автор: Julian Jackson Издательство: Belknap Press: An Imprint of Harvard University Press ISBN: 0674987217 Год: 2018 Формат: PDF Страниц: 928 Размер: 183,8 МБ Язык: Английский
In the early summer of 1940, when France was overrun by German troops, one junior general who had fought in the trenches in Verdun refused to accept defeat. He fled to London, where he took to the radio to address his compatriots back home. “Whatever happens,” he said, “the flame of French resistance must not be extinguished and will not be extinguished.” At that moment, Charles de Gaulle entered history.

 Название: Common Destiny: Dictatorship, Foreign Policy, and War in Fascist Italy and Nazi Germany Автор: MacGregor Knox Издательство: Cambridge University Press ISBN: 0521582083 Год: 2000 Формат: PDF Страниц: 276 Размер: 2,0 МБ Язык: Английский
This book offers a genuinely comparative analysis of the dictatorships that launched the Second World War: their origins, nature, dynamics, and common ruin. It provides an unconventional and compelling overview from territorial unification in the 1860s to national catastrophe in 1943/45 that places Fascism and Nazism firmly in the tradition of revolutionary mass politics inaugurated in the French Revolution.

 Название: Japan's Imperial Army: Its Rise and Fall, 1853-1945 Автор: Edward J. Drea Издательство: University Press of Kansas ISBN: 0700616632 Год: 2009 Формат: PDF Страниц: 444 Размер: 7,0 МБ Язык: Английский
Popular impressions of the imperial Japanese army still promote images of suicidal banzai charges and fanatical leaders blindly devoted to their emperor. Edward Drea looks well past those stereotypes to unfold the more complex story of how that army came to power and extended its influence at home and abroad to become one of the world's dominant fighting forces.

 Название: Images of War - The AMX 13 Light Tank: A Complete History Автор: M.P. Robinson, Peter Lau, Guy Gibeau Издательство: Pen & Sword ISBN: 1526701677 Год: 2018 Формат: EPUB Страниц: 248 Размер: 87,3 МБ Язык: Английский
The AMX 13 was originally designed in the immediate aftermath of the Second World War. It represents French ambitions for national resurgence and withdrawal from wartime dependence on American military technology. Being a light tank it was an ambitious and far sighted departure from conventional tank design and it found a ready export market as well as being a critical part in the French Army arsenal. Its basic hull design lent itself to the development of a vast list of variants.
