 Author: Nigel Cawthorne Blitzkrieg Hiter’s Masterplan For The Conquest Of Europe Chartwell Books, Inc ISBN: 0785829431 2012 Format: EPUB + PDF (conv) Size: 4,6 МБ + 8,5 МБ Language: English Pages: 208 When Germany attacked Poland on September 1, 1939, nothing like it had ever been seen before. Heralded by the insidious whine of Stuka dive-bombers, seven divisions of Panzers rolled across the border supported by motorized infantry. While tanks were punching gaping holes through Polish lines and racing on at speed towards Warsaw, fleeing refugees were machine-gunned mercilessly by the Luftwaffe and lines of communication were torn to ribbons as mayhem spread. This was Blitzkrieg—or “lightning war”—the art of mechanized warfare. Blitzkrieg was a new flexible system of fighting wars, involving speed over the ground and speed of though from battlefront commanders who made decisions in the field rather taking orders from above. In 1940 and 1941 the German army swept across Europe like a tidal wave, until they were nearly at the gates of Moscow and Hitler prepared to rule the world. Then came the Russian winter and things were never the same again. This book looks at the development of the Panzer concept, and the building and deployment of the Corps through the eyes of those who fought in it, and of those who fought against it. It tells the story of the singular breed of men who formed the spearhead of the world’s most ruthless and efficient military machine, and how they ultimately came to be defeated.

 Author: Arch Whitehouse Amphibious Operations Doubleday & Company, Inc. 1963 Format: PDF Pages: 392 Language: English Size: 41.7 MB Every major offensive launched by the U.S. during WW II was initiated by an amphibious assault, which fact has led many to believe that amphibious warfare is relatively new development, when in reality it is as old as recorded history. Arch Whitehouse, whose 16 previous books cover practically every aspect of modern warfare, does not begin quite that far back in his story here; he is content to start out with ulius Caesar's invasion of Britain. The remaining chapters deal with sea-to-land assaults at Louisburg and Quebec, during the American Revolution, at Gallipoli and eebrugge in WW I, every major beachhead in all theatres of WW II (four chapters), the Inchon landing during the Korean Police Action, and present-day American amphibious equipment and forces, as seen first-hand by the author in a full-scale exercise that was staged off the island of Vieques in the Caribbean recently.

 Author: Janusz Ledwoch Warzaw 1 - Tanks in the Uprising Leandoer & Ekholm Publishers 2012 ISBN: 9197589535 Format: EPUB Size: 19,0 МБ Language: English Pages: 606 Many books have been written about the Uprising in Warsaw, but none have been written in this detailed manner describing the use of the armored weapons of war. Tanks in city environments had, earlier during World War II only been used very rarely, since it is very difficult to use them properly in built-up areas. The Uprising in Warsaw was unique, as both sides used tanks in the battle. This book gives a concise picture of the vehicles and the weapon systems that were used. The appendix of the book gives lots of interesting facts such as a list of the units in the Polish Home Army and the German Read Full Post Luftwaffe Flak & Field Divisions 1939-1945 (Images of War)

 Author: Victor Davis Hanson A War Like No Other: How the Athenians and Spartans Fought the Peloponnesian War Random Youse 2006 ISBN: 0812969707 Format: EPUB Size: 3,4 МБ Language: English Pages: 416 One of our most provocative military historians, Victor Davis Hanson has given us painstakingly researched and pathbreaking accounts of wars ranging from classical antiquity to the twenty-first century. Now he juxtaposes an ancient conflict with our most urgent modern concerns to create his most engrossing work to date, A War Like No Other. Over the course of a generation, the Hellenic city-states of Athens and Sparta fought a bloody conflict that resulted in the collapse of Athens and the end of its golden age. Thucydides wrote the standard history of the Peloponnesian War, which has given readers throughout the ages a vivid and authoritative narrative. But Hanson offers readers something new: a complete chronological account that reflects the political background of the time, the strategic thinking of the combatants, the misery of battle in multifaceted theaters, and important insight into how these events echo in the present.
