Beschreibung

"Russian Winter" examines the critical role of Russia's harsh climate in determining the outcomes of military campaigns, particularly Napoleon's invasion of 1812 and Nazi Germany's assault during World War II. The book meticulously analyzes how the severe winter conditions acted as a formidable, often decisive, ally for the Russian forces. It highlights the meteorological realities faced by invading armies, contrasting them with historical climate norms to reveal the true extent of the environmental challenge. Logistical nightmares induced by frozen supply lines and crippled equipment are also explored, demonstrating how the climate amplified strategic weaknesses.

 
The book delves into the psychological toll exacted by the relentless cold, hunger, and disease on invading soldiers, drawing comparisons between the experiences of Napoleon's Grande Armée and the Wehrmacht. By integrating environmental history with military history, "Russian Winter" offers a unique perspective on well-known events.

 
The book progresses from establishing a climatological baseline to analyzing logistical challenges and the human impact of the winter, ultimately demonstrating how the Russian climate consistently undermined invaders' strengths, contributing significantly to their defeat on the Eastern Front.

  • Stakeknife's Dirty War - The Inside Story of Scappaticci the IRA's Nutting Squad and the British Spooks Who Ran the War - cover

    Freddie Scappaticci was born in 1946 and raised in a deeply nationalist area of Belfast. When the Troubles broke out in 1969, he joined the Provisional IRA, where he quickly rose through the ranks, becoming commander of Belfast in 1984. 
     
    From the outside, Scappaticci appeared to be a dedicated volunteer, but inwardly, he had become disenchanted with the IRA and, in 1977, he started working for British intelligence. At the same time, he took up a leading role in a newly formed IRA Internal Security Unit (ISU), aka ‘The Nutting Squad’. He personally executed two suspected informers and condemned at least thirty-seven more to death. 
     
    Was he the serial killer that history portrays him? Undoubtedly. But it’s not that simple, because every time he passed the death penalty on an informer, he told his British intelligence handlers about the intended execution, giving them the opportunity to prevent the killing. 
     
    Did the tasking and co-ordinating group, the primary British intelligence organisation in Northern Ireland during the troubles, aid and abet the IRA in the mass-murder of British citizens? That is the question Richard O’Rawe poses in Stakeknife’s Dirty War. But O’Rawe goes further: he lays out a very compelling case that points to the TCGs running the IRA’s war from the mid-1980s to the 1994 ceasefire. Such was the British intelliegence penetration of the IRA, that Freddie Scappaticci, aka ‘Stakeknife’, was in control of all IRA operations in the Belfast Brigade area. This book will shock readers, and cause them to reevaluate everything they formerly held to be true about Stakeknife’s dirty war in Ireland.

    Peter Kreeft, esteemed philosophy professor and author of over eighty books, has taught college philosophy for sixty years. Throughout those decades, he yearned for a beginner's philosophy text that was clear, accessible, enjoyable, and exciting (perhaps even funny). Finding none that met those criteria, he eventually decided to write it himself.  In this four-volume series, Kreeft delivers, with his characteristic wit and clarity, an introduction to philosophy via the hundred greatest philosophers of all time. Socrates’ Children examines the big ideas of four major eras―ancient, medieval, modern, and contemporary―and immerses the reader in the “great conversation,” the ongoing dialogue among the great thinkers of history, including the most influential philosopher of all: Socrates, the father of Western philosophy. Volume II: Medieval Philosophers studies the transformation of philosophy that came about due to an unprecedented figure―Jesus Christ―and considers the philosophers of the great monotheistic religions of Judaism, Christianity, and Islam as they sought to marry the Greek philosophical tradition with divine revelation.
