Secret Namibia by Lily Jouve Pdf

Namibia is a vast, ancient place, its legacy an endless expanse of desert sand fringed by coastal plain and rugged mountain terrain and dotted with geological wonders that remain the country's most impressive features. Intrigued by the scenic splendour and entranced by the everchanging landscape that emerges beyond every corner, every towering dune and every mountaintop, Lily and Marcel Jouve travelled the length and breadth of the country to discover the varying facets of the land and its geology. In Secret Nambia, they share their exploration of the terrain, and reveal its secrets, from the geomorphological make-up to the best routes to follow and the finest places to stay. From the famed Spitzkoppe to Kaokoland, Etosha National Park to the Fish River Canyon, Sossusvlei to Sandwich Harbour, this is Namibia through their lens, their celebration of its rock and sand, valley, canyon and plain, and the unique flora and fauna found in these landscapes. Secret Namibia is an invitation to discover, through word and images, the intriguing natural features of this wild country.

Geological Wonders of Namibia by Michel Detay Pdf

This stunning depiction of geology in Namibia combines searingly beautiful photography with clear explanations of how the varied landscapes formed. Arranged chronologically (starting 13.8 billion years ago), the chapters each deal with a particular event or process that has resulted in the formation under discussion. These include the early beginnings of the Earth, meteorites, canyons and limestone caves, vast desert landscapes, moonscapes and bizarrely-shaped rocks, and Namibia’s astonishing underwater lakes and reservoirs. Picture-driven, with accessible text, this book features all the highlights of Namibian landscapes and landforms. A treat for travellers real and virtual – those on the road as well as those in armchairs.

Serving the Murder Warrant by Michael Tombs Pdf

According to Michael Tombs, “To prove murder, you have to prove intent. And you must prove intent not by the laws of today but by the laws of the time.” The collapse of the economic, financial, and political structure in the North African and the Middle Eastern nations of Libya, Iraq, and Syria came to an abrupt silent void of no top-down communication within the local governments and their national leadership. In societies where human rights are ignored, in my opinion, the first institutions to be dismantled in an internal civil war, in my professional opinion, usually are the local jails, followed by the regional penitentiaries, and finally all of the national prisons. According to the Black Youth Organization, “City after city in Libya, Iraq, and Syria experienced internal civil wars and violent prison escapes. The local terrorist’s suicide bomber leaders in these nations organized a modern, well-armed military of escaped prisoners into a terrorist army that, through military force, captured and occupied very large areas of land in many parts of Libya, Iraq, and Syria. The major terrorist who emerged as the leader of this rebel terrorist’s modern military army of ex-prisoners is identified by intelligence sources in the Black Youth Organization to be Zawahiri Abu Bakr.”

Secret State Police Operations in Cold War Czechoslovakia by Václava Jandecková Pdf

"Jande?ková pulls back the curtain to give us a glimpse of the inner workings of Communist Czechoslovakia’s secret police in connection both with the false border operation ‘Kamen’ and the mysterious circumstances surrounding the death of Foreign Minister Jan Masaryk. A fascinating study that enhances our understanding of this tragic period." James R. Felak, University of Washington "Václava Jande?ková's text is based on a great variety of sources, which are thoroughly and resourcefully interrogated and clearly presented. It is in two parts: the first investigates the Communist Czechoslovak security police operation to flush out potential “troublemakers” by luring them to a false frontier on the pretence of organising their escape to West Germany. The second is a searching re-examination of the murder of Foreign Minister Jan Masaryk in March 1948. The author has long experience with security police archives and brings together material never before presented in a joint analysis. The text will be very valuable to all who are interested in the operations of Soviet-style authorities and in secret police methods generally." Geoffrey Hosking, Emeritus Professor of Russian History, School of Slavonic and East European Studies, University College London "With this book Václava Jande?ková emerges as a star among historians of Cold War intelligence operations. Combing her analytical skills with deep understanding of Czech history, she has mapped out the scandalous Operation KAMEN and its many dimensions in astonishing detail. This study is a meticulously researched and convincingly argued masterpiece. It is also immensely readable and full of fascinating depictions of the personalities involved. It is a marvelous piece of work, a major contribution to our understanding of the early postwar years of the Cold War. I can’t recommend it highly enough." Igor Lukes, Pardee School of Global Studies, Boston University Václava Jande?ková is an independent researcher, a co-founder of the Association for Research of Communist Crimes, member of the International PEN Club (Czech Centre) and a graduate in international relations.

The Namibian War of Independence, 1966äóñ1989 by Richard Dale Pdf

The decolonization of Namibia was delayed from 1966 to 1989—the period of the war of independence—pitting the Namibian nationalists against the South African minority-ruled regime. This book describes the diplomatic, economic and military campaigns of the Namibian and South African belligerents and draws a comparison with several other decolonization wars. Using data from parliamentary debates, the aftermath is examined of the Namibian war and the newly independent nation. The book provides a basis for further investigation of the decolonization process.
