Beschreibung

Greek Uprising examines the Greek War of Independence, positioning it as a watershed moment that reshaped European politics and ignited the flame of national self-determination. This military history delves into the conflict's internal dynamics, key military campaigns, and the surge of philhellenism across Europe. One intriguing aspect is how the Greek cause captured the hearts of European intellectuals, artists, and politicians, leading to widespread support. The book also highlights the critical role of foreign intervention from Great Britain, France, and Russia in securing Greek independence, demonstrating the complex interplay of international relations. The book progresses chronologically, starting with the historical context of Ottoman rule and the rise of Greek national identity. It then provides detailed accounts of major military campaigns and concludes by assessing the revolution's broader impact on European politics. By drawing upon archival documents and contemporary accounts, Greek Uprising adopts a multi-disciplinary approach, integrating military, political, and social history. This offers a nuanced understanding of the Greek War of Independence, its influence on subsequent nationalist movements, and its contribution to the decline of the Ottoman Empire.

    Meet the top MiG-killing aces of Operation Desert Storm.August 1990: Iraqi forces under the command of Saddam Hussein invaded the tiny emirate of Kuwait. Within hours, the Kuwaiti defenses collapsed under the onslaught of the Iraqi Army. In response, the US military led a coalition of thirty-four nations in what became known as Operation Desert Storm—a violent air and ground campaign to eject the Iraqis from Kuwait. At the tip of the spear were the men of the US Air Force’s 58th Fighter Squadron.Mounted aboard their F-15C fighter jets, these young aviators took to the sky against the Iraqi Air Force. Although confident in their capabilities, these untested American pilots were flying into combat against the latest-and-greatest of Soviet-built aircraft – including the MiG-29 ‘Fulcrum.’Despite the odds, however, the men of the 58th Fighter Squadron decimated the Iraqi Air Force in one engagement after another. On the first day of the air war (January 17, 1991), Captain Jon “JB” Kelk claimed the first aerial victory of Desert Storm, downing a MiG-29 in combat. In less than 30 days, the 58th Fighter Squadron flew more than 1,600 combat sorties and destroyed 16 Iraqi aircraft – more than any other coalition air unit.Based on hours of interviews and archival research by author Mike Guardia, this book reveals an intimate, no-holds-barred account of modern aerial combat…as told by the men who lived it."Skybreak" is their story.

    Damn good coffee, cherry pie, and the “big bang of auteur television” ― why Twin Peaks deserves to be a pop culture classic In 1990, avant garde filmmaker David Lynch (Eraserhead, The Elephant Man, Dune, Blue Velvet) and acclaimed television writer Mark Frost (Hill Street Blues) teamed up to create a television show that would redefine what the medium could achieve in a one-hour drama. With Twin Peaks, the duo entranced audiences with the seemingly idyllic town, its quirky characters, and a central mystery ― who killed Laura Palmer? In a town like Twin Peaks, nothing is as it seems, and in Wrapped in Plastic, pop culture writer Andy Burns uncovers and explores the groundbreaking stylistic and storytelling methods that have made the series one of the most influential and enduring shows of the past 25 years.
