Invaluable for specialists, accessible to enthusiasts, International Warbirds: An Illustrated Guide to World Military Aircraft, 1914–2000 puts the most legendary fighter aircraft of the 20th century developed outside the United States on vivid display. It offers 336 illustrated "biographies" of the most significant warplanes used in squadron service from World War I to the Balkan conflict, including numerous models from Great Britain, France, Russia, and Japan, as well as notable machines from Israel, Canada, China, India, Brazil, and other nations. Entries span the history and scope of military aircraft from bombers and fighters to transports, trainers, reconnaissance craft, sea planes, and helicopters, with each capsule history combining nuts-and-bolts technical data with the story of that model's evolution and use. Together, these portraits offer an exciting, well-researched tribute to visionary designers and builders as well as courageous pilots and crews across the globe, and tell a vivid tale of how air power became such a decisive factor in modern warfare.

"Hitler was Nazi Germany and Nazi Germany was Hitler." Thus it is often presented. While this perspective is true to the extent that Hitler's personality, leadership, and ideological convictions played a massive role in shaping the nature of government and life during the Third Reich, the perspective has led most writers since the end of World War II to ignore other aspects of Nazism in favor of biographies or historical works centered solely around Hitler's contributions to the Nazi Party. This book seeks to fill a significant gap in the literature by concentrating particularly on the Nazi Party and its growth during the years of the Weimar Republic, examining the paramilitary presence in Germany and Bavaria after World War I. Most of the book concentrates on the development of the Nazi Storm Detachment (Sturmabteilung, or SA) before and after the failed Beer Hall Putsch in 1923. By the time Hitler came to power in January 1932, there were perhaps as many as 400,000 of these brown-shirted men creating violence on a daily basis and destroying the shaky underpinnings of the Weimar Republic. These young storm troopers, often self-styled revolutionaries, made unparalleled contributions to the ascendancy of the Nazi Party and Hitler's explosive rise to power. The book features several photographs captured from the Nazi Party's Central Publishing Facility in Munich and passed to the author in the late 1950s.

В чем главные причины поражений 1941 года? Почему немцам раз за разом удавалось окружать целые армии? Кто виноват в разгроме Юго-Западного фронта под Киевом? И почему в ноябре 1941 г., впервые за весь период блицкригов, немецкая военная машина дала сбой и замерла всего в нескольких десятках километров от Кремля?
