  Did you know that the biggest territorial expansion in ancient Rome took place during the reign of its first emperor, who also ruled the longest out of all of the rulers prior to the fall of the Western Roman Empire? 
  The Roman Empire reached its zenith within the first two centuries of the fall of the Roman Republic, expanding its territory and spreading its influence well beyond the borders of Europe. During that time, a sort of global peace was achieved, which historians call the Pax Romana. But what exactly is the Pax Romana, and how does one delve into this huge, ever-expanding subject? 
  Like many other segments of Roman history, the Pax Romana is riddled with murky areas, contradictory information from contemporary sources, and fascinating archaeological finds. In this book, you’ll discover what made Rome tick during those roughly two hundred years of relative peace. 
  Throughout the pages of this tome, you’ll get brief glimpses of the reigns of many emperors who made the Pax Romana into what it was. Discover the Pax Romana’s long-term effects and how it managed to cement the Roman Empire as the go-to empire for many later civilizations to try and emulate. 
  Among other things, you’ll gain new knowledge on the following facts:How the empire evolved from the former republic and who the men were that brought about the changes What made the reign of each emperor uniqueWho the best emperors during the Pax Romana were, and which ones were considered the worstWhat role the provinces and territorial expansion played in the growth and development of the empireHow the imperial Romans were stratifiedWhat societal changes came about with the abolition of the republic and the return to a monarchic model

  The only book ever written in the history genre that succinctly tells the progressive and redemptive course of America as revealed in the stories behind the American holidays. 
   
  Ever wonder why everyone wants to immigrate to America? Rediscovering America answers that question, and it’s like no other history you have ever read. More than an account of people, dates, and events, this story is about the hidden  
  hand of a purposeful historical development where the main actors are colorful characters, participating in an American drama of little known but remarkable events where overcoming incredible odds of failure is more unbelievable and  
  engaging than fiction. And while each chapter is a stand-alone tale—some quite wild—about what is behind each of the American holidays, the page- and chapterturning appeal of Rediscovering America is in the narratives that link the holiday  
  stories together, revealing an account of progress and redemption in America covering over four hundred years—never before told in a concise and readable book.

  An absorbing and compelling study of the most intensive naval struggle the world has ever seen.Beginning with Pearl Harbor, renowned historian Donald Macintyre charts the course of the Pacific war through the major battles that shaped World War Two: Java Sea, Coral Sea, Midway, Philippine Sea, and Leyte Gulf.Of course, the Pacific theater was shaped not only by naval actions but also by closely interlocking military campaigns. Macintyre brings these amphibious struggles, which were more ferocious and wide-ranging than the world had ever seen, to the forefront of listeners' minds and demonstrates just why the Allies were able to emerge victorious.Macintyre, a veteran of the U-boat war in the Atlantic, explores how the Japanese were able to utilize the tactical advantage of their fleet air arm with its superiority in carrier-born fighters and torpedo planes to initially gain the upper hand of the conflict. It was only through military intelligence breakthroughs, the vast American industrial capacity, and brilliant naval and military leadership that the Allies were able to defeat the Japanese even in the face of terrifying kamikaze attacks.
