The Roman Emipre at Bay is an excellently written, well-documented, clearly structured, very complete and extensive book. Extremely well furnished with numismatic and prosopographical evidence and including the latest scholarship, it cannot be ignored by future scholars of the third and fourth centuries and will certainly take the place of many previous works on the subject.

U.S. Army Special Operations in World War II by David W.Hogan Jr. free Ebook download

U.S. Army Special Operations in World War II
Center of Military History Department of the Army | 1992 | English | 168 pages | PDF | 15.3 MB

Special operations-in this context, commando or guerrilla activities-conducted by the V.S . Army in World War II have been the subject of a good many thrilling adventure stories but little sober, historical analysis. Only a handful of works have examined the critical issues underlying special operations, and the Army's historical series on World War II treats the subject only in passing. Yet special operations had a significant role that should not be ignored. Ranger units captured positions critical to the success of amphibious landings in the Mediterranean, France, and the Philippines. Partisans advised by American military personnel provided essential intelligence to American forces and harassed enemy troops in support of American operations in Italy, France, the Philippines, and Burma. As special operations forces grow in importance within the V.S. Army, we need to look at our experience with such activities in World War II. I recommend this study as an overview for Army leaders and other interested parties of an important, but often misunderstood subject. It fills a gap in the Army's history of World War II and honors individuals whose efforts, frequently unsung, nevertheless made a major contribution to the American and Allied victory in that war.
HAROLD W. NELSON, Brigadier General, USA, Chief of Military History

In late September 1941 the war in the east was approaching a climax. Since the beginning of the German invasion on 22 June 1941, Soviet forces had suffered the staggering loss of over 2 million troops. Operation Typhoon began and in the first week of the offensive, the three German panzer armies surrounded virtually the bulk of the Soviet forces barring the way to Moscow. This title details the dramatic battle that took place right up to the suburbs of Moscow itself, and the defeat which altered Hitler’s strategic management of the war.

Historical Atlas of Ancient Rome by Chris Scarre free Ebook download

The Penguin Historical Atlas of Ancient Rome by Chris Scarre
Penguin | 1995 | 144 pages | PDF | 17,5 MB

Matching clear graphics with informative text, Christopher Scarre's atlas gives a fine overview of Roman history from the emergence of the first city-state in the eighth century B.C. to the rise of Christian theocracy a millennium later. The Penguin Historical Atlas of Ancient Rome is especially helpful in showing the growth of the Roman empire through successive centuries of military campaigning from Scotland to Arabia and in delineating the networks of trade, transit, and communication that bound the far-flung outposts to the imperial capital. Scarre notes that many of those networks still survive in one form or another.

Hitler vs Stalin - The Second World War On The Eastern Front In Photographs PDF


Carlton Books LTD | 2007-07-13 | English | ISBN: 0192806181 | 256 pages | pdf | 47 MB

Hitler versus Stalin shows the brutality,
horror and heroism of war on the Eastern Front as never before.
Over 300 rare photographs, many recently
released from the Russian archives and previously unpublished in the West,
illustrate every phase and aspect of the Eastern Front campaigns,
from the Nazis' early blitzkrieg successes,
the battle for Moscow and the siege of Leningrad, through the street fighting for Stalingrad,
and the Soviet successes at Kursk and Operation Bagration,
to the climactic fall of Berlin and the link-up between
Soviet and Western armies amid the ruins of the "1000-year Reich".
This is total war in its most barbaric form:
nearly 30 million Soviet soldiers and citizens were killed during four years
of struggle against their German invaders.
