Hell on the Beach - Ranger Training Camp and the Road to Normandy

Pasquale De Marco

Sinossi

In the annals of military history, few units embody courage, sacrifice, and unwavering determination like the 5th Ranger Infantry Battalion. From the beaches of Normandy to the heart of Nazi Germany, these elite soldiers fought with unmatched valor, leaving an indelible mark on the course of World War II.

This gripping narrative chronicles the extraordinary journey of the 5th Rangers, from their rigorous training camp in the United States to the bloody battlefields of Europe. Through the eyes of these brave men, readers will experience the horrors of war and the unbreakable bonds of brotherhood forged in the crucible of combat.

From the moment they stormed Omaha Beach on D-Day, the Rangers faced overwhelming odds. They fought their way through a hail of bullets, navigating treacherous obstacles and overcoming fierce German resistance. Their daring assault on Pointe du Hoc, a strategic clifftop position, stands as a testament to their unwavering determination and courage.

The Rangers' relentless push inland brought them face to face with the challenges of the Normandy bocage, a landscape of dense hedgerows and minefields. Every hedgerow, every field, became a potential killing ground. Ambushes and booby traps were a constant threat, but the Rangers pressed on, clearing the way for the Allied advance and bringing hope to a war-torn Europe.

The liberation of Paris marked a turning point in the war, and the Rangers played a pivotal role in this historic event. They fought street by street to liberate the City of Light from Nazi occupation, bringing joy and relief to the French people. Their victory in Paris was a major blow to the German war machine and a symbol of hope for the Allied cause.

The Rangers continued their relentless fight across Europe, crossing the Rhine River and engaging in fierce battles in the heart of Germany. They fought with unwavering determination, even as the war drew to a close. Their sacrifices and contributions played a crucial role in the Allied victory in Europe.

This book is a tribute to the bravery and resilience of the 5th Ranger Infantry Battalion. It is a story of courage, sacrifice, and the unbreakable bonds of brotherhood. Through the eyes of these extraordinary soldiers, readers will gain a deep appreciation for the horrors of war and the extraordinary resilience of the human spirit.

Thirty Problems Concerning...

Menasseh Ben Israel, Seymour...

At his own expense, he self-published Thirty Problems Concerning Creation (De Creatione Problemata 30) from his home. This work aimed to restore the classical doctrine of creation and to address intricate philosophical and theological questions related to the creation of the world and faith. The present edition is the first translation of the Latin edition that was published in 1635, nearly 400 years ago. The thirty problems explore various questions, including the existence of a beginning of the world, the nature of the raw material, the origin of Moses' knowledge of creation, the universality of this knowledge, the duration of the world's creation, the existence of other worlds before ours, the direct emanation from God, the number of elements necessary for creation, the creation of souls and bodies, the creation of Paradise and Hell, the existence of Purgatory, the creation of demons and angels, the roundness of the sky, the final cause of the world's creation, and the alterability of the world if it is eternal. These problems invite deep reflections on the nature of existence and faith.

On Drugs - Psychedelics...

Justin Smith-Ruiu

“Like the best psychedelic experiences, On Drugs estranges the familiar, familiarizes the strange, and returns us to reality (whatever that is) with a broadened sense of the possible. Justin Smith-Ruiu is simply one of the most interesting thinkers alive, and he has found an ideal subject for his peculiar brand of brilliance.”—Christopher Beha, author of The Index of Self-Destructive Acts 
  
In the late, post-lockdown days of the pandemic, grappling with personal loss and existential uncertainty, Justin Smith-Ruiu found himself standing in a California cannabis dispensary, pondering a question his tribe of fellow philosophers have often dismissed as too simple: How did I get here? That moment marked a transition for him—it was the start of a journey Smith-Ruiu would take to experience his own mind and the world around him in a new, clarifying way.  
  
On Drugs blends autobiography, intellectual history, and philosophical inquiry to explore the transformative impact of psychedelics on human consciousness and thought. Drawing on his personal experiences as “an articulate guinea pig,” Smith-Ruiu argues that psychedelics upend our assumptions about the nature of reality—and thus force a reckoning with the very foundations of Western philosophy.  
  
Provocative, profound, and deeply personal, On Drugs points toward a radically new way of thinking about the world and our capacity to understand it.
