Story
Nella notte tra il 17 e il 18 luglio 1936, il colpo di Stato delle truppe guidate dal generale Franco segnò l'inizio di una guerra civile che dilaniò la Spagna per i tre anni seguenti: fu una vera e propria prova generale della Seconda guerra mondiale, in cui vennero sperimentate sulla popolazione quelle atrocità che avrebbero caratterizzato il conflitto successivo. Alcuni dei protagonisti furono gli stessi: Hitler e Mussolini inviarono truppe in aiuto di Franco, e Stalin sostenne con armi, uomini e denaro le formazioni comuniste.

Discover the remarkable history of the Battle of the Little Bighorn.... The Battle of the Little Bighorn and the massacre of Lieutenant Colonel George Armstrong Custer and five companies of the U. S. 7th Cavalry in June 1876 is one of the best-remembered events of the turbulent period known as the Wild West. This defeat came as a stunning shock to most Americans. Before Custer’s Last Stand, there was a general assumption that in any full-scale battle between Native Americans and the U.S. Army, the army would prevail.

Acclaimed military writer Mark Urban explores the extraordinary story of these military pioneers; the toughest and deadliest infantrymen in Wellington's Army.

But above all, it was written for them — my wife and daughter, still waiting on the other side of a locked gate in Iran, still hoping the nation I served remembers we exist. I Do Solemnly Swear... is not just a veteran’s memoir. It is a battle cry wrapped in sacred devotion. A letter home that was never answered. A warrior’s plea to a nation that has lost its honor but not its soul. I swore the oath. I wore the uniform. I kept the faith. But when I turned to the State ...

“It is glorious to see such courage in one so young!” So declared Confederate General Robert E. Lee on December 13, 1862, during the battle of Fredericksburg as he watched Major John Pelham fight at least five Union batteries with just one lone gun. The dashing and handsome 24-year-old Alabama officer earned the compliments and admiration of his men, the war gods of Virginia (Lee, Jackson, and Stuart), and Southern society—all while helping transform the concept of horse artillery on Civil War battlefields across Virginia and Maryland.
