Beschreibung

In "History of the Civil War: 1861-1865," James Ford Rhodes presents a meticulous and comprehensive examination of one of America's most transformative periods. Utilizing a narrative style that intertwines rigorous scholarship with vivid storytelling, Rhodes conveys the complexities of the Civil War through extensive use of primary sources, including letters, official documents, and contemporary accounts. His work not only contextualizes military strategies and battles but also delves into the socio-political ramifications of the conflict, making it a seminal text in the historiography of the Civil War. James Ford Rhodes, an influential historian and journalist, was deeply intrigued by the socio-political landscape of post-Civil War America. His firsthand experiences and observations, combined with his background in literature and history, significantly shaped his perspective. Rhodes was one of the earliest scholars to approach American history with a clear conviction that it should be viewed through the lens of industrial and social evolution, which profoundly influenced his interpretation of the Civil War's impact on American society. This book is essential for anyone seeking a deeper understanding of the Civil War'Äôs broad consequences. It is indispensable not only for students of history but also for general readers interested in the lasting effects of this pivotal period on American identity. Rhodes'Äô work remains an authoritative resource that provides clarity and depth to the complexities of the Civil War.

    A history of the 47,000 Spanish soldiers who volunteered to fight for Hitler in Russia during World War II. Although Spain claimed neutrality during World War II, 47,000 Spaniards volunteered to fight on behalf of the Third Reich. Known as the Blue Division, they battled the Soviets on the Eastern Front and played a key role in the pivotal siege of Leningrad. Set apart from the Wehrmacht by stark differences in culture, tactics, and command structure, these volunteers fought—many of them to the death—with courage and tenacity against strong opposition, extreme temperatures, and insufficient supplies for what they believed was their chance to secure Spain’s place in a new and changing Europe.

    I've self-published for over ten years. I've seen the industry start, take off and mature. I've seen tactics, companies and people come and go.  
    However, over that time, a few important principles have always held true, but in the morass of advice of varying quality it can be hard to separate the wheat from the chaff.  
    In 2017, I wrote the Unboxed books, a series of four books about how to publish sustainably, and by that I mean in a manner so that you can keep doing it long-term, and how to use your mailing list to set up a self-perpetuating sales vehicle.  
    While the strategies haven't changed, many of the peripheral situations have. In short: we have far more and better tools, but far more competition, not only from other authors on the sales front, but also from services that entice us to spend ever more money before we publish.  
    This book is my ultimate guide to what you need, what you can try, and what is likely to be a waste of your money and time.  
    Over more than 500 pages I talk about the unvarnished experience of self-publishing and selling books while keeping control of my catalogue and not funding anyone's private jet in advertising costs.  
    I wrote this book to pay it forward to the community. I don't sell courses. I don't do affiliate marketing. I have no vested interest in anyone's self-publishing journey. Except for this: I want you to enjoy it.

    English Armada The: The History...

    On July 12, 1588, the legendary Spanish Armada headed for the English Channel. The Spanish plan was to take this invasion, led by the Duke of Parma, to the coast of southeast England, where they would be unleashed to conquer Elizabethan England for Spain’s King Philip II and Catholic Christendom. The Armada included over 150 ships, 8,000 sailors, and 18,000 soldiers, and it boasted a firepower of 1,500 brass guns and 1,000 iron guns. Just leaving port itself took the entire Armada two days.  
    	As everyone who has been taught history now knows, the Armada was one of the most famous military debacles in history. Regardless of the debate over whether it was simple mathematical miscalculation or plain bad luck, coupled with English fire ships assailing the Spanish ships, the Armada was decisively defeated. The Armada ultimately found its reluctant way home in awful conditions, having permanently lost over a third of the ships, and on the Irish coast, the Armada suffered further losses.  
    	For the Counter Armada, Elizabeth turned to the most notorious English sailor of the era. The life of Sir Francis Drake, or, more precisely the tale of it, is a prime example that history is written by the winners. Drake’s successes against the Spanish as a captain and a privateer were legendary, and Drake was celebrated for fighting the queen’s enemies, sinking their ships and capturing the treasure that would otherwise be used to finance attacks on England. Drake vigorously pursued every mission given to him by Elizabeth I, and he brought all his skill, experience, and training to bear against her enemies. He was recognized at court for his valor, praised in story and song, and remembered for the kind of personality and esprit de corps that the English have long desired and celebrated in their military heroes. They were to patrol the shores of England and Spain and destroy any remaining Spanish ships.
