Sinopsis

Colonial War Facts explores the wars that defined the era of colonial expansion, revealing their profound impact on today's geopolitics, socio-economic systems, and cultural identities. Understanding these conflicts is crucial for grasping world history and the roots of international relations. The book examines the motivations, strategies, and long-term consequences of colonial wars for both colonizers and the colonized, challenging narratives of inevitable Western progress.

 
The investigation spans from the 15th to the 20th centuries, initially defining colonial warfare and distinguishing it from other conflicts. Major sections then delve into case studies from Africa, Asia, and the Americas, offering detailed accounts of key battles and the involvement of local populations. It's unique in that it offers a comparative analysis of colonial wars across different regions and empires, exposing both shared patterns and unique characteristics.

 
The book concludes by analyzing the lasting legacies of these wars, including territorial disputes and economic inequalities, and how lessons learned can apply to contemporary conflict resolution. Supported by primary source accounts and statistical data, Colonial War Facts provides a comprehensive analysis useful for students, policymakers, and anyone interested in understanding the roots of current global issues.

    "Israel: The Last Vestige of European Colonialism in the Middle East" is an in-depth examination of the historical and ongoing impact of European colonialism on the formation and expansion of Israel. Through a critical lens, this book challenges the mainstream narratives that depict Israel as the rightful homeland of the Jewish people and instead explores its colonial roots and the displacement of the indigenous Palestinian population. 
      
    The book delves into the role of European powers, from the Zionist movement's inception in the late 19th century to the political maneuvers that facilitated the establishment of Israel in 1948. It uncovers how Western support, particularly from Britain and the United States, enabled the colonization of Palestine while ignoring the rights of the native population. It also analyzes the demographic changes brought about by waves of European Jewish immigration and presents genetic evidence highlighting the European ancestry of much of the modern Israeli population. 
      
    By exploring topics such as the marginalization of non-European Jewish communities, the ongoing occupation of Palestinian territories, and the influence of Western powers, this book aims to shed light on the historical injustices and colonial dynamics that continue to shape the Israeli-Palestinian conflict. Readers will be encouraged to question established narratives, understand the broader geopolitical implications, and consider the pathways to justice and accountability for the Palestinian people.

    Brian Dickinson, famously known for having climbed down Mt. Everest while completely snow blind, is often asked how he managed the incredible feat. He has always attributed it to his faith and to his U.S. Navy Search and Rescue Training. For the first time, Brian takes an in-depth look at the training that saved his life and the missions—both his and others'—where these skills were put to the test to save other people. 
     
     
     
    Over two decades after being honorably discharged from the Navy, Brian is compelled to share his unique military training and experiences. He believes that sharing the training that he received to overcome adversity in the most extreme scenarios can help others to overcome their own personal Everest. Even beyond mountaineering, the military training has rewired Brian's ability to navigate difficult business, financial, health, and relationship challenges. With the chaos of the world continuing to expand, these stories from U.S. Navy rescue swimmers provide a fresh perspective on what it takes to survive some of the most dangerous situations, and how that shapes the rest of a person's life.

    The Sports Palace speech was the climax of a campaign for 'total war'; the prime example of Nazi 'mass suggestion', a barrage of propaganda, seduction, and manipulation. 
     
    On the 18th of February 1943 Nazi Propaganda Minister Joseph Goebbels made a speech in the Berlin Sports Palace that is regarded as one of the most chilling, and at the same time most effective, rhetorical performances of the twentieth century. 
     
    In this definitive English translation, renowned historian Peter Longerich delves into the historical buildup to Goebbels's most notorious speech, the speech itself, and its lasting effect. Goebbels and 'Total War' singles out the Sports Palace speech to demystify the legend of Nazi propaganda by exposing the reality of the rally as a highly staged and prerecorded event, with a preselected audience and rehearsed reactions made to look spontaneous. For Goebbels, this spectacle was not only his chance to raise support for 'total war' in the German public but also the ultimate test to prove himself to his 'Führer'. Longerich traces Goebbels's path to 'total war' from his questionable demagogue skills and his tenuous relationship with Hitler, to the nation's losing battle at the front, and finally to total defeat.

    A sexual abuse survivor tells her story in this memoir written with the help of the #1 bestselling author of Don’t Tell Mummy and When Daddy Comes Home. 
     
    Gerri Mayo was only a young girl when she was first abused by her father. Growing up in a small village in Northern Ireland, in the tumultuous time of the Troubles, she had no one to turn to. He father’s evil acts were followed by abuse from her local priest, arranged by her father. After her mother found out about the abuse, she committed suicide. 
     
    Gerri and her siblings were split up and placed in different foster homes. Told that her mother had committed a grave sin, Gerri’s foster parents were far from kind to her. She experienced years of loneliness, feeling completely abandoned. 
     
    The abuse Gerry experienced was so extensive it required an operation to repair the damage to her body. When asked who or what had been responsible, she responded “the priest”. But she was not believed in her small Northern Ireland town in the 1960s, where everyone believed a priest took his orders directly from God. After finally meeting her kind and caring husband, Gerry decided it was time for her story to be told. This is her true story of survival.

    David Burke uncovers the clandestine activities of Patrick Crinnion, a Garda intelligence officer who secretly served MI6 during the early years of the Troubles. As the Garda Síochána launched a manhunt for the Chief-of-Staff of the IRA, Crinnion found himself playing a crucial role in the effort to track him down.
     Before his disappearance, Crinnion's actions exposed a web of secrets including those of another British spy in the Irish police, damaging intelligence leaks, gunrunning by Irish politicians, and a cover-up related to the murder of a Garda.
     Burke reveals MI6's shady dealings, from attempts to smear Irish politicians to plans for using criminals as assassins and the secret surveillance of a key IRA member.
     Crinnion fled into exile. The Puppet Masters not only reveals what became of him but also provides an insightful look into a turbulent period marked by covert operations, betrayal, and the power struggle that shaped modern Irish history.
