Sinopse

In "The Philosophy of Elbert Hubbard," Hubbard presents a compelling synthesis of his beliefs, weaving together concepts of individuality, self-reliance, and the pursuit of personal fulfillment. His distinct literary style'Äîmarked by a conversational tone and satirical wit'Äîdraws the reader into a philosophical discourse that is as engaging as it is thought-provoking. Rooted in the early 20th-century context of American pragmatism and the Arts and Crafts movement, Hubbard's work advocates for a life lived with intention and creativity, challenging societal norms and conventional wisdom. Elbert Hubbard, a prominent writer, publisher, and social reformer, was greatly influenced by the societal shifts of his time, including industrialization and the quest for personal autonomy. With a background in craft and design, as well as a deep admiration for literary figures such as Walt Whitman and Ralph Waldo Emerson, Hubbard's philosophy emerged as a direct response to the mechanization of life and the loss of individuality. His experiences as a business entrepreneur also infuse his writing with practical wisdom. This book is highly recommended for readers seeking inspiration and clarity in living an authentic life. Hubbard's attitudes toward creativity and self-determination resonate strongly with contemporary discussions about individualism, making it a relevant resource for anyone eager to explore their own philosophies and embrace a life of purpose.

    The war stories and combat narratives of the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment during five-and-a-half years of combat in Vietnam. 
     
     
     
    When the US Army went to war in South Vietnam in 1965, the general consensus was that counterinsurgency was an infantryman's war; if there were any role at all for armored forces, it would be strictly to support the infantry. However, from the time the 11th Armored Cavalry Regiment arrived in country in September 1966, troopers of the Blackhorse Regiment demonstrated the fallacy of this assumption. By the time of Tet '68, the Army's leadership began to understand that the Regiment's mobility, firepower, flexibility, and leadership made a difference on the battlefield well beyond its numbers. 
     
     
     
    Over the course of the 11th Cavalry's five-and-a-half years in combat in South Vietnam and Cambodia, over 25,000 young men served in the Regiment. Their stories—and those of their families—represent the Vietnam generation in graphic, sometimes humorous, often heart-wrenching detail. Collected by the author through hundreds of in-person, telephone, and electronic interviews over a period of twenty-five-plus years, these "war stories" provide context for the companion volume, The Blackhorse in Vietnam.

    The compelling inside story of how America abandoned Afghanistan. 
     
     
     
    When America retreated from Kabul amid chaos in 2021, Lieutenant General Sami Sadat, the last commander of the army of the Afghan republic, was still fighting to the end. In this firsthand account, he reveals how his troops were starved of ammunition for two years before the final pullout, while America was glad-handing the Taliban. Although Sadat spent his early career fighting alongside the CIA to track down al-Qaeda in the mountains of the Hindu Kush, it was in conventional combat—leading from the front—that he made his name. In The Last Commander, he contends that Afghanistan could have won the war if support had continued. President Biden may have ended America's longest war, but the story does not end there. Now Sadat's birth country is plunged into barbarism, where women are beaten for showing their face and his former comrades are hunted down and killed. But Sadat is planning to fight back. It will not be easy, but this riveting personal account of combat shows that if anyone can do it, he can. 
     
     
     
    Sadat's story was told in the Emmy Award–winning documentary Retrograde. Now he tells it for himself.

    The rise of Rome is a story of resilience, military strength, and strategic diplomacy. Emerging from a small settlement along the Tiber River, Rome transformed into a dominant power that would shape the ancient world for centuries. The foundation of Rome’s success lay in its political adaptability, disciplined military, and ability to integrate conquered peoples into its expanding empire. 
    Rome began as a monarchy, but after the expulsion of its last king in 509 BCE, it became a republic governed by elected officials and a system of checks and balances. This new structure allowed Rome to expand without being solely reliant on a single ruler. The Roman Republic was marked by a strong Senate, magistrates, and popular assemblies, which provided a balance of power. However, as Rome grew, internal conflicts between the patrician elite and the plebeian class led to significant social and political reforms, further strengthening the state’s stability. 
    The backbone of Rome’s expansion was its formidable military. The Roman legions, composed of disciplined and well-trained soldiers, were unmatched in organization and adaptability. Unlike other ancient armies that relied heavily on individual heroism, Rome’s military success stemmed from its ability to fight as a cohesive unit. Roman soldiers were rigorously trained, equipped with superior weapons, and organized into flexible formations such as the manipular system, which allowed them to adapt to various battle conditions. This military efficiency enabled Rome to conquer neighboring territories, including the Latin League, the Etruscans, and the Samnites, solidifying its control over central Italy.
