Strategic Inventions of the Civil War by Ann Byers Pdf

The Civil War was the bloodiest war America has ever faced. In many ways, it was a time of change for the United States. One of these changes was in the technologies that were developed and used. The repeating rifle, the railroad, and the submarine are technologies that were created, tested, or greatly improved during this crisis. This book explores the effect of the war, the impact each technology had on the war and on society in the years and decades following it, and the legacy of these events and developments today.

The Spanish Civil War by Jorge M. Reverte Pdf

Jorge M.Reverte’s new book offers a fresh analysis of the strategic way in which the Nationalists and the Republicans fought the Spanish Civil War. Applying the traditional theory of the Art of War to the conflict, Reverte examines the methods, ideology, and results of the strategic, operational, and tactical methods employed by both factions in Spain from 1936 to 1939. Drawing on both the massive historiography of the war as well as extensive examination of primary sources, including military archives, this book is a welcome addition to the literature on the Spanish Civil War.

100 Turning Points in Military History by Alan Axelrod Pdf

The typical military history presents a chronicle of battles and wars and the commanders and troops who fought them. This book takes a different approach. It presents battles and wars and people aplenty, but they are not its ultimate subjects. This book is about the turning points that not only make military history dynamic but crucial to the story of humanity and civilization. This book is about the decisions, acts, innovations, errors, ideas, successes, and failures that shaped the evolution of military art and science—strategy, tactics, and technology—and, in doing so, shaped the course of world history. Here are the 100 points—from the birth of warfare in the Battle of Megiddo, 1457 BC, to the ongoing evolution of military history on its newest battlefield, cyberspace—at which the path of the warrior decisively turned on its long journey to where we find ourselves today.

A Short History of the Spanish Civil War by Julián Casanova Pdf

In this revised edition of A Short History of the Spanish Civil War, Julián Casanova tells the gripping story of the Spanish Civil War. Written in elegant and accessible prose, the book charts the most significant events and battles alongside the main players in the tragedy. Casanova provides answers to some of the pressing questions (such as the roots and extent of anticlerical violence) that have been asked in the 70 years that have passed since the painful defeat of the Second Republic. Now with a revised introduction, Casanova offers an overview of recent historiographical shifts; not least the wielding of the conflict to political ends in certain strands of contemporary historiography towards an alarming neo- Francoist revisionism. It is the ideal introduction to the Spanish Civil War.

Digesting History: The U.S. Naval War College, The Lessons of World War Two, and Future Naval Warfare, 1945-1947 by Hal M. Friedman Pdf

Product Description: Digesting History: The U.S. Naval War College, the Lessons of World War II, and Future Naval Warfare, 1945–1947, by Professor Hal M. Friedman, studies the contribution of the Naval War College, especially in the presidency of Admiral Raymond Spruance, to strategic thought during the first critical postwar years—that is, between the end of the war and the formulation of Containment. This transition period is especially valuable as a window through which to explore institutions such as the College in transition from a hot war to a cold one. While seminal studies exist of the College’s work in the interwar years, none have been published on this period.

Unto a Good Land by David Edwin Harrell Jr.,David Edwin Harrell,Edwin S. Gaustad,John B. Boles,Sally Foreman Griffith Pdf

Introducing a New U.S. History Text That Takes Religion Seriously Unto a Good Land offers a distinctive narrative history of the American people -- from the first contacts between Europeans and North America's native inhabitants, through the creation of a modern nation, to the 2004 presidential election. Written by a team of highly regarded historians, this textbook shows how grasping the uniqueness of the "American experiment" depends on understanding not only social, cultural, political, and economic factors but also the role that religion has played in shaping U. S. history. While most United States history textbooks in recent decades have expanded their coverage of social and cultural history, they still tend to shortchange the role of religious ideas, practices, and movements in the American past. Unto a Good Land restores the balance by giving religion its appropriate place in the story. This readable and teachable text also features a full complement of maps, historical illustrations, and "In Their Own Words" sidebars with excerpts from primary source documents.
