Sinossi

In "The Crisis of the Naval War: British Royal Navy in World War I," John Rushworth Jellicoe provides a meticulous account of the Royal Navy's operations during the pivotal moments of the First World War. Through a detailed examination of naval strategies, engagements, and command decisions, Jellicoe reveals the complexities and challenges faced by the British fleet. His narrative combines firsthand experience with analytical depth, highlighting not only the technical aspects of naval warfare but also the broader implications for military strategy. The book is stylistically rich, interweaving historical data with personal insight, making it an essential text for scholars and enthusiasts of naval history. Admiral Sir John Rushworth Jellicoe, who served as Commander-in-Chief of the Grand Fleet during the war, draws from his extensive naval career and firsthand experiences at sea. His leadership at the Battle of Jutland, where he famously faced criticism and public scrutiny, informs his reflective and critical perspective throughout this work. Jellicoe's unique vantage point lends authority and depth to his analysis, making it not just a historical account but a strategic evaluation of naval operations under extreme conditions. I highly recommend this book to readers interested in military history and naval strategy. Jellicoe'Äôs engaging prose and insightful analysis provide an invaluable lens through which to understand the Royal Navy's vital role in the First World War. "The Crisis of the Naval War" stands as a crucial work for anyone seeking to grasp the intricacies of naval warfare and its lasting impact on maritime strategy.

    This book is like a walk in the park chat about my journey through drug addiction. It tells the story of how we got started at the early age of 10 years old smoking marijuana. For fourteen years of my life, this led to the hallucinogens, snorting cocaine, drinking alcohol and that dangerous monster; crack cocaine. We were able to come through this dangerous lifestyle and live to document the steps that we were able to take to free ourselves from this living hell. We are honored to share this process in hopes that we can reach the hearts and minds of all who will walk this path with us, as we are now 29 years free and clear of drugs, alcohol and cigarettes as a result of "Walking The Road To Recovery; 9 Steps In Motion. Enjoy.

    The first full-length biography of World War II general and Cold Warrior John Wilson "Iron Mike" O’Daniel, featuring "the very essence of the man… who spent more time under fire with his front-line troops than behind the safety of his office desk." — ARGunners.comJohn Wilson “Iron Mike” O’Daniel was one of the U.S. Army’s great fighting generals of the 20th century. He began his military career with the Delaware Militia in 1914, served on the Mexican border in 1916, received a Distinguished Service Cross in World War I, was Mark Clark’s man for hard jobs in the early days of World War II, and commanded the storied 3rd Infantry Division from Anzio to the end of the war in Europe, ending the war in Salzburg after liberating Munich, and Hitler’s Berghof and Eagle’s Nest on the Obersalzberg, Bavaria, Germany. “Iron Mike “commanded I Corps in Korea 1951–1952 and ended his career as the Chief of the Military Assistance Advisory Group in Vietnam in the early days of American involvement there.  LTC Stoy paints a vivid picture of this great American warrior who played an important role in World War II, became an ardent anti-Communist crusader after duty in Moscow as Military Attaché 1948–1950 as the Cold War intensified, laid the foundation for the Army of the Republic of Vietnam, and remained an ardent supporter of President Ngo Dinh Diem while serving as Chairman of the American Friends of Vietnam from his retirement in 1956 until 1963, shortly before Diem’s assassination.

    During the 17th century, the Netherlands, despite having only 1.5 million people in 1600, became a global maritime and trading power. By contrast, France at the time had 20 million people, Spain had 8 million, and England had 5 million. Nevertheless, Amsterdam became one of the most important urban centers in the world and the location of the world’s first stock market, and Dutch merchant ships and pirates plied the Atlantic Ocean, the Indian Ocean, and the Pacific Ocean. The Dutch acquired colonies in the East Indies, where they seized control of the spice trade from the Portuguese, and in the West Indies, they acquired a number of islands from the Spanish (several of which are still Dutch today). They became the only Westerners who were allowed to trade with Shogunate Japan from a small island next to Nagasaki, and they settled the town that ultimately became New York City. Naturally, all of this imperialism generated enormous amounts of wealth that flowed into the Netherlands. 
    	Naturally, not everybody welcomed the Europeans, and some of the fiercest opposition came from the Sultanate of Aceh. Aceh is now a part of Indonesia, but the people have stubbornly maintained a unique sense of self-identity based on a quite distinct and separate history. Once a major political and military power in the Indian Ocean, its power gradually declined over a period of several centuries, but Aceh successfully maintained its independence until 1873, when the Dutch invaded. The war between the Dutch and the Acehnese was the longest and bloodiest of the many Dutch military campaigns in Indonesia. Even after the Dutch technically subdued them, insurgency campaigns would last well into the 20th century, and sporadic fighting was still ongoing as the Japanese pushed across the Pacific in the 1930s and 1940s.
