Two manuscripts in one book: • History of Austria: A Captivating Guide to Austrian History • The Habsburg Empire: A Captivating Guide to the House of Austria and the Impact the Habsburgs Had on the Holy Roman Empire When Austrian President Franz Jonas visited the Vatican in 1971, Pope Paul VI named Austria "the Island of the Blessed." He did so to emphasize Austria's steep recovery. Only twenty-five years had passed since the end of the Second World War, and Austria was already one of the most prosperous European countries. One might argue that Austria was always a rich country, and during the times of its Habsburg rulers, it certainly was. But after the dissolution of the Austro-Hungarian Empire, Austria was lost between two worlds -- its German heritage and its multi-ethnic nation. As such, it was easy for Nazi Germany to hijack Austria, integrate it in its anti-Semitic scheme, and make it defy the whole Western world. Austria was deeply involved in the atrocities of World ...

Napoleon and Hitler: A comparative biography by Desmond Seward (Lume Books) 3.9 Stars (11 Reviews)    Price verified 4 hours ago

Acclaimed historian Desmond Seward presents a fascinating exploration of the lives and temperaments of these two tyrants. He shows in an entirely new way how history can repeat itself, as he offers surprising insights into the two flagrant dictators who shaped the destiny of modern Europe. Both were obscure outsiders, struggling for social acceptance, who ultimately achieved military domination over Europe. Both destroyed themselves by invading Russia in the frozen depth of winter. Aloof and contemptuous of human life, neither would acknowledge the folly of their all-consuming megalomania. Napoleon and Hitler examines the parallels in their lives and careers and pinpoints a crucial link between them - a classic analysis of Napoleonic strategy written by a contemporary Prussian admirer, which Hitler read and implemented a hundred years later. Praise for Napoleon and Hitler: 'A Clever and cohesive look at megalomania in action... ' -- Kirkus Review Desmond Seward is a ...

NOTE: This book contains graphic depictions of extreme crime and violence. Its content may not be suitable for all readers. ** Escaping Alcatraz was the winning title of the 2018 International Book Awards in the True Crime category. ** Under the cover of night on June 11, 1962, using only crude homemade tools, Frank Morris and brothers John and Clarence Anglin tunneled their way out of Alcatraz, America's most secure maximum security prison. Enacting a complex escape plan, the trio broke free from the cellblock, made it undetected past patrolling guards, inflated homemade life vests and a raft, and set sail into a foggy history. Made famous by the classic film Escape from Alcatraz starring Clint Eastwood and multiple Hollywood documentaries, this legendary mystery is still debated over a half century later. Considered America's Devil Island, Alcatraz opened in August 1934 with the intent to turn the spectacularly colorful dispositions of America's worst criminals into a world of ...

Radical Coup: A Case for Reaction (Libertarian Analysis Book 2) by Sean Gabb 4.6 Stars (13 Reviews)    Price verified 3 hours ago

From the Foreword by Hans-Hermann Hoppe: Gabb provides detailed analyses of many issues currently hotly debated both in and outside of libertarian circles all across the Western world, and assesses their role and impetus in the process of social change.

Marginal Man: Life of Emilio Goggio by Paul Redvers Brown 4.7 Stars (19 Reviews)    Price verified 4 hours ago

A nineteen-year-old boy made a promise to his eighty-three-year-old grandfather. He would write a book about his life, finally setting the record straight. Fifty-five years later, it's done. This is that book, and I was that boy. I imagined it would be a tribute to the man I loved, something like the letter our family received eight months after my grandfather died in 1979. It was from the University of Toronto Council of the Faculty of Arts and Sciences, expressing their condolences and deep regrets. Here is part of what they had to say: "Professor Goggio was very active in the Italian cultural life of Toronto. He also supported with enthusiasm the activities of the University's Italian and Spanish Clubs. He was a prime example of the professor with wide interests... the kind of figure that is so desirable today." It is ironic to read these words, knowing how undesirable he was to many during his early career. My grandfather put himself squarely on the wrong side of pre-war ...

Before World War II, Edward Ellsberg had already established himself as a true innovator and master naval engineer, revolutionizing the salvage and rescue of sunken vessels like no one before.

A Book of Remarkable Criminals by H. B. Irving 3.8 Stars (624 Reviews)    Price verified one hour ago

This classic study profiles serial killers, gentleman murderers, and every stripe of madman in between Benjamin Pitezel should never have trusted H. H. Holmes. In 1894, the two men conspired to fake Pitezel's death for the sake of a $10,000 insurance settlement. But Holmes decided murder would be simpler. He killed his partner, kidnapped three of his children, and tried to claim the insurance money as his own. The scheme unraveled and Holmes killed the children as well. When he was caught, the police had no idea they had captured one of the vilest murderers in American history. The Pitezel murders were only the tip of a very bloody iceberg. The chilling case of H. H. Holmes -- famously recounted in Erik Larson's award-winning bestseller, The Devil in the White City -- is but one of the true crime tales contained in this remarkable work. Author H. B. Irving understood the public's lurid fascination with murder, and in this seminal study he shows readers the many faces of evil.

Flight of the Forgotten: A True Story of Heroism and Betrayal by Mark Vance 4.4 Stars (161 Reviews)    Price verified 22 minutes ago

Flight of the Forgotten is the true story of one of the most closely-guarded American military secrets of all time. It is intriguing, controversial and thought-provoking. The story traverses 50 years, two generations and the realities of our physical world. The triggering event is the tragic loss of an American Eighth Air Force bomber crew in 1945 under mysterious circumstances while enroute home after the end of World War II. The loss represents a 50-year-old aviation mystery, officially "forgotten" by the United States Government. Details described and amplified within the story remain permanently "buried" inside a top-secret O.S.S. file to this day. This book is a public counter to official efforts by the United States Government to have the events permanently erased from the public record. The author's extensive research indicates that those events involve murder, conspiracy and sabotage by the O.S.S., the forerunner to the modern CIA.

Macroeconomics, Agriculture, and Food Security: A Guide to Policy Analysis in Developing Countries by Eugenio Díaz-Bonilla (International Food Policy Research Institute) 3.9 Stars (3 Reviews)    Price verified 2 hours ago

Why write a book on macroeconomic policies and their links to agriculture and food security in developing countries? The food price spikes of the years just prior to 2010 and the economic, political, and social dislocations they generated refocused the attention of policymakers and development practitioners on the agricultural sector and food security concerns. But even without those traumatic events, the importance of agriculture for developing countries -- and for an adequate functioning of the world economy -- cannot be denied. First, although declining over time, primary agriculture still represents important percentages of developing countries' overall domestic production, exports, and employment. If agroindustrial, transportation, commercial, and other related activities are also counted, then the economic and social importance of agriculture-based sectors increases significantly. Furthermore, large numbers of the world's poor still live in rural areas and work in agriculture. ...

Misreading the Bengal Delta: Climate Change, Development, and Livelihoods in Coastal​ Bangladesh (Culture, Place, and Nature) by Camelia Dewan 4.0 Stars (1 Review)    Price verified 22 minutes ago

Perilously close to sea level and vulnerable to floods, erosion, and cyclones, Bangladesh is one of the top recipients of development aid earmarked for climate change adaptation. Yet to what extent do adaptation projects address local needs and concerns? Combining environmental history and ethnographic fieldwork with development professionals, rural farmers, and landless women, Misreading the Bengal Delta critiques development narratives of Bangladesh as a "climate change victim." It examines how development actors repackage colonial-era modernizing projects, which have caused severe environmental effects, as climate-adaptation solutions. Seawalls meant to mitigate against cyclones and rising sea levels instead silt up waterways and induce drainage-related flooding. Other adaptation projects, from saline aquaculture to high-yield agriculture, threaten soil fertility, biodiversity, and livelihoods. Bangladesh's environmental crisis goes beyond climate change, extending to coastal ...

Puppets of Faith: Theory of Communal Strife: A Critical Appraisal of Islamic Faith, Indian Polity ‘n More by BS Murthy 5.0 Stars (2 Reviews)    Price verified 4 hours ago

The sublimity of Muhammad's preaching in Mecca and the severity of his sermons in Medina make Islam a Janus-faced faith that forever bedevils the mind of the Musalmans. This thought-provoking work, possibly in a new genre, besides dissecting the anatomy of Islam, steeped in the Quran, seeks to depict the psyche of the Musalmans, shaped by the proclivities of their prophet, vicissitudes of his life and the attitudes of his detractors, which the mechanism of their umma perpetuates. More to the point, aided by "I'm Ok - You're Ok", the path-breaking work of Thomas A. Harris and Roland E Miller's "Muslim Friends-Their Faith and Feeling", this book, for the first time ever, psycho-analyzes the imperatives of the Muslim upbringing, which has the potential to turn a faithful and a renegade alike into a fidayeen. Also, apart from delving into the ironies of the faiths that affected the fate of the peoples, eclipsed the cultures of communes, altered the course of history and afflict the ...
