  Greek Dark Ages and Greek...

  The Greek Dark Ages, sometimes referred to as the Homeric Age or the Geometric Period, spans the era of Greek history from the end of the Mycenaean civilization around 1100 BCE and the emergence of the Greek poleis in the 9th century BCE. It is an era that has provided little in terms of extant archaeological evidence, which in part explains the name “Dark Ages,” but this lack of evidence has led some archaeologists and historians to make the very great assumption that little of any real significance occurred during these 200 years. Instead, they view it as a sort of hiatus between the collapse of the Mycenaean culture and the emergence of Archaic Greece. As with other so-called “Dark Ages,” this assessment is simplified, and an absence of evidence should never be assumed as evidence of absence. 
  If anything, the collapse of the Mycenaeans was a drawn-out affair, and while the early centuries of the Dark Ages might beseen as a continuation of this trend, even in the worst years, there was a degree of continuity and even some innovations. These changes including the beginnings of the use of iron as an alternative to bronze and some religious practices that continued to be observed. Furthermore, enough remained to form the basis of a recovery in economic, cultural, and artistic aspects of life in the later stage of the era, and in the political sphere, changes necessitated by the collapse in the economic system certainly paved the way for the rise of the polis, which would prove so fundamental in Greece in the centuries that followed.  
  This laid the groundwork for the Greek Renaissance of the 8th century. During that time, the Greek alphabet developed and the earliest surviving Greek literature was composed, while in terms of art and architecture, sculptures and red-figure pottery began. Warfare changed significantly as well when the hoplite became the core infantry.

  The Book of Habakkuk is the eighth book of the 12 minor prophets of the Bible. It is attributed to the prophet Habakkuk, and was probably composed in the late 7th century BC. Of the three chapters in the book, the first two are a dialogue between Yahweh and the prophet. The message that "the just shall live by his faith" plays an important role in Christian thought. It is used in the Epistle to the Romans, Epistle to the Galatians, and the Epistle to the Hebrews as the starting point of the concept of faith.

  America's War in Syria -...

  This insider assessment of American military involvement in Syria offers “a fascinating and down-to-earth look at the war against [ISIS]” (Military Heritage Magazine). 
   
  The US military campaign in alliance with Kurdish forces in Syria remains a rare success story in the age of the War on Terror. Considering the military victory, the civilian government that followed the fighting, the light military footprint and the strong link to Kurdish partners, the intervention against ISIS in Syria is widely regarded as the nation’s most successful campaign since World War II.  
   
  In this volume, three authors who participated directly in the conflict offer a rare ground-level view of how it turned into a just war. Between the three of them, they participated in all the large Kurdish operations against the Islamic State between late 2014 and mid-2016. They endured muddy archaic trench warfare, witnessed the first waves of decisive US and British airstrikes against ISIS, and experienced the impact America had on the battlefield.  
   
  Later, when American, British and French Special Forces were deployed at the front lines, the authors worked closely with those teams, evacuating hundreds of wounded from the battlefield together. Based on their unique insights, they analyses America’s war in Syria, identifying its distinct phases from the secretive build up to the ultimate destruction of the ISIS Caliphate.
