In the midst of the largest banzai attack of the war, US Army Lt. Col. William O'Brien, grievously wounded and out of ammunition, grabbed a sabre from a fallen Japanese soldier and flailed away at a small army of assailants, screaming to his men, "Don't give them a damn inch!" When his body was recovered the next day, thirty dead enemies were piled around him.

In Great Hunting Rifles, firearms expert Terry Wieland leads the reader on a journey through the history of some of the most exquisite rifles made in the twentieth century.
The rifles featured in the book, all personally owned by the author and described in loving detail, were chosen for their particular importance. Each rifle either represents a particular era of gun making, is historically important, or is simply a paragon of gun making skill. In his treatment of these special rifles, Wieland provides a close look at some individual guns that are superb in a unique way, and which illustrate high points of the twentieth century. | |

На реке Миус в годы Великой Отечественной войны шли кровопролитные бои за Миусские рубежи, на которых фашисты создали мощные укрепления, которые приостановили наступление войск СССР в декабре 1941-го, феврале 1943, июле 1943, и только в августе 1943 года войска Южного фронта сокрушили оборону гитлеровских войск на Миусе, и освободили Ростовскую область.
Нашим войскам пришлось познать и горечь поражения, в частности наступление 56-й армии начатое 8 марта 1942 года.

Following the Revolution in 1789, members of the aristocracy were increasingly persecuted, and many of them fled abroad. These exiles became known collectively as '?migr?s', and despite initial confusions and indecision, many of them were taken into British service. This fine text by Ren? Chartrand examines the organisation, uniforms and insignia of the ?migr? troops in British service from 1793 to 1802, accompanied by plenty of illustrations including eight full page colour plates by Patrice Courcelle. | |

When Germany invaded the Soviet Union in June 1941, it seemed as thought the hopes and fears of both dictators were correct. Entire Soviet armies disintegrated before the military skill of the Germans. Three million prisoners were taken in the first six weeks. By early October, the Germans were on open roads to Moscow and the Soviet government had already begun to evacuate to the interior. The course of human civilization has turned on the outcome of a select few climactic battles throughout history, but never more so than when Stalin's enigmatic Soviet Union desperately rallied its resources to stave off Hitler's armies in the "Battle for Moscow". Albert Seaton captures the tension and excitement of one of the most harrowing events in history. From the drama in the command posts to the plight of the infantry and armor in the mud and snow, The Battle For Moscow illuminates the titanic struggle which was the pivotal battle of World War II. Riveting reading from the very first page, The Battle For Moscow is a kind of "window on the past" and superb military history. | |

Now, at the start of the 21st century, much of warfare is waged from the air, not on the ground. High-flying, high-tech air forces around the world keep breaking barriers in speed and in stealthiness. Find out how we got to this point, and where the modern air force will soar to in the future. Helped by more than 180 photographs, a story unfolds of how the best air forces developed, and of their winning strategies--including the Nazis' devastating Blitzkrieg tactic. All the groundbreaking planes of the past and the ones revolutionizing our present receive close coverage, as are those wars where control of the skies proved crucial to victory and humanitarian efforts where the air force played an important role. | |
