  China's New Navy - The Evolution...

  A survey of Chinese naval operational history, Li's book focuses on the major battles and important engagements of Chinese naval operations from 1949-2009. His findings elucidate the origin of and changes of the People's Liberation Army Navy (PLAN) by examining its adaptation, modernization, and setbacks in the past sixty years. Based upon newly available Chinese sources and personal interviews with retired generals, admirals, and PLA officers, the work offers Chinese perspective on the study of PLAN war fighting history. The untold operational stories of the Chinese captains, boatswains, sailors, gunners, and naval pilots provide a firsthand look at a naval officer and his crew during the Cold War and beyond. They also indicate important lessons learned by the naval leaders who faced the enemies during a period when the PLAN underwent a complex transformation. 
   
   
   
  China's New Navy explains how the Chinese Navy's operational experience brought about its reform. It concludes that some early experiences are still relevant to Beijing's leaders as they consider specific strategic and operational challenges. Li redefines and adapts such strategic Cold War concepts as nuclear deterrence and local warfare to be meaningful in today's strategic context, one in which PLAN is ready to open fire first in a defensive offense against the other sea powers like the US Navy.

  The Crusader States - Kingdoms...

  The story of the Crusader States begins with a cry for help and a call to arms that would echo across Christendom. In 1095, at the Council of Clermont, Pope Urban II delivered a fiery sermon urging the Christian knights of Europe to take up arms and reclaim the Holy Land from Muslim control. This call to crusade was not merely a military summons—it was framed as a sacred duty, a spiritual journey that promised the remission of sins and eternal reward for those who participated. The response was overwhelming. Nobles, peasants, and knights alike took up the cross, inspired by religious fervor, promises of salvation, and, for some, the allure of land and glory. 
  The roots of the crusading movement were complex. The Byzantine Empire, under threat from the Seljuk Turks, had appealed to the West for military support. Urban II seized the opportunity not only to assist a fellow Christian empire but also to assert papal authority, redirect knightly violence away from Europe, and perhaps reunite the Eastern and Western Churches. His appeal resonated deeply in a Europe rife with feudal conflict, religious devotion, and a growing warrior culture. The concept of "holy war" gave new legitimacy to warfare as a religious act, transforming knights into pilgrims with a sword. 
  The First Crusade, launched in 1096, was both chaotic and remarkable. It was not a single army but a series of loosely organized forces, including the infamous People's Crusade led by Peter the Hermit, which was largely destroyed before reaching the Holy Land. The main crusading armies followed, composed of powerful lords such as Godfrey of Bouillon, Raymond of Toulouse, Bohemond of Taranto, and others. These forces traversed hostile territory, besieged cities, and faced hunger, disease, and internal divisions. Yet, against the odds, they succeeded in capturing Jerusalem in July 1099.

  'Staggeringly good... Much like Lisa Taddeo's Three Women, it reads more like a novel than a piece of non-fiction... it does what all great writing should - it puts us into the world of someone else, so completely that days later I find myself missing the couples and wondering how their stories end' Marianne Power, The Times
  
  
  'A profound book on the politics of love, of couples who brave everything and everyone to be together. Told with warmth, truth and humanity, Mansi Choksi's The Newlyweds is an extraordinary look at what it takes to be together in modern India' Nikesh Shukla
  'Essential reading for anyone seeking to understand youth in India today - or for anyone who believes in the galactic powers of love to change history, personal and political' Suketu Mehta
  
  
  What would you risk for love?
  
  Twenty-first century India is a culture on fast forward, a society which is changing at breakneck speed, where two out of every three people are under the age of thirty-five. These young men and women grew up with the internet, smartphones and social media. But when it comes to love, the weight of thousands of years of tradition cannot so easily be set aside.
  
  An extraordinary work of reportage, The Newlyweds is a portrait of modern India told through the stories of three young couples, who defy their families to pursue love. The lesbian couple forced to flee for a chance at a life together. The Hindu woman and Muslim man who must escape under the cover of night after being harassed by a violent mob. And the couple from different castes who know the terrible risk they run by marrying.
  
  Writing with great insight and humanity, Mansi Choksi examines the true cost of modern love in an ancient culture. It is a book that will change the way readers think about love, freedom and hope.
