Sinossi

Forced Marches examines the pivotal role of extreme endurance marches in military history, revealing how they've been both decisive advantages and devastating liabilities. This exploration highlights that military operations often hinge on the physical capabilities of soldiers, turning the simple act of marching into a strategic weapon. The book emphasizes the human element, showcasing how successful marches could overwhelm defenses and seize key terrain, while failed ones led to exhaustion, disease, and ultimately, defeat.

 
The study focuses on the operational implementation of forced marches, the physiological and psychological demands on soldiers, and the historical consequences of these marches. The book explores historical examples like the Roman army's rapid deployments, American Civil War marches, and World War II's Eastern Front, systematically analyzing their planning, execution, and outcomes.

 
By combining historical analysis with insights into human endurance, Forced Marches provides a comprehensive understanding of this often-overlooked aspect of military history.

    The origins of the Aztec Empire trace back to the Mexica people, a nomadic group that migrated from the north into the Valley of Mexico during the 13th century. According to legend, their patron god, Huitzilopochtli, guided them to an island in the middle of Lake Texcoco, where they saw an eagle perched on a cactus, devouring a serpent. This vision fulfilled their prophecy and led them to establish Tenochtitlan in 1325, a city that would grow into the heart of one of the most powerful civilizations in Mesoamerica. 
    At first, the Mexica were a relatively small and struggling group, living under the dominance of more established city-states in the region. However, through strategic alliances and military prowess, they gradually gained influence. One of their most significant moves was forming the Triple Alliance in 1428 with the cities of Texcoco and Tlacopan. This alliance allowed them to expand their territory, subjugating neighboring cities and demanding tribute, which fueled their empire’s wealth and strength. 
    Tenochtitlan itself became a marvel of engineering and organization. Built on an island, the city featured a vast network of canals, causeways, and aqueducts that supported a thriving population. The chinampa agricultural system—artificial islands used for farming—ensured a steady food supply, while trade networks connected the Aztecs to distant regions, bringing in luxury goods such as jade, cacao, and exotic feathers. The city’s towering temples, bustling marketplaces, and well-planned streets reflected the empire’s prosperity and the sophisticated nature of Aztec society.

    The Soviet Union killed over six hundred thousand whales in the twentieth century, many of them illegally and secretly. That catch helped bring many whale species to near extinction by the 1970s, and the impacts of this loss of life still ripple through today’s oceans. In this new account, based on formerly secret Soviet archives and interviews with ex-whalers, environmental historian Ryan Tucker Jones offers a complete history of the role the Soviet Union played in the whales' destruction. 
     
     
     
    As other countries—especially the United States, Great Britain, Japan, and Norway—expanded their pursuit of whales to all corners of the globe, Stalin determined that the Soviet Union needed to join the hunt. Cold War intrigue encouraged this destruction, but, as Jones shows, there is a more complex history behind this tragic Soviet experiment. Jones compellingly describes the ultimate scientific irony: today's cetacean studies benefited from Soviet whaling, as Russian scientists on whaling vessels made key breakthroughs in understanding whale natural history and behavior. 
     
     
     
    Red Leviathan reveals how the Soviet public began turning against their country's whaling industry, working in parallel with Western environmental organizations like Greenpeace to help end industrial whaling—not long before the world's whales might have disappeared altogether.
