Both authors have seen extensive military service in much the same areas as feature in the biblical accounts. The Bible's military accounts, told in vivid detail, cover a vast period, from the invasion of Canaan by the Israelites under Joshua's command, through the conquest of the kingdom by David and Solomon and the split of the kingdom into Judah and Israel, to the Maccabees' successful rebellion against Seleucid domination. The reliability of these accounts is supported by their technical accuracy and by descriptions of topographic conditions peculiar to specific battlefields. They bear comparison with military campaigns well after the biblical era, and provide strategic and tactical lessons of value even today. They are also an essential key to understanding the events of the time, when the struggle for independence and survival overshadowed all other aspects of daily life. National identity and security remains a vital issue in the region today, and many of the places that figure in the biblical accounts still retain their military importance. Battles of the Bible is a fascinating and valuable work, not only for its exacting scrutiny of the biblical accounts, but also for its insight into their wider and continuing relevance. This new, thoroughly revised and re~illustrated edition of a highly regarded book takes into account current historical and archaeological research, as well as modern trends in biblical scholarship.

But it wasn't until The Knights of Bushido was published that the world was given a detailed chronicle of Japan's cruel, gruesome war crimes. You need a strong stomach to read through this graphic book. It begins with the attack on China, where, among other repulsive acts, Japanese soldiers used living people for bayonet practice. The book moves on to the massacre of Allied POWs, the infamous death marches, slave labor and even cannibalism and vivisection. The horrors cataloged here are written in plain language, some reading as if they were the fictional creation of some deranged mind. But they all happened. All the information used to compile this horrific chronicle was taken from evidence and documents from numerous war crimes trials, as well as first~hand accounts from those lucky enough to survive. Disturbing to the core, The Knights of Bushido goes deep into the dark side of war.

The word Gestapo still conjures up the overpowering images of horror and dread that it aroused in Europe before and during the Second World War and at Nuremberg when the truth of its terrible tortures, massacres and attempts at genocide was revealed. But what went on within the organisation itself? Here, Edward Crankshaw provides an authoritative study of the structure of the Gestapo, of its bitter rivalries with other police and service organisations, of its struggle for power, and of its leading personalities. He traces, too, how the Gestapo grew as an instrument of the Nazi police state under Himmler, who also controlled the SS; it ran side by side with the intelligence service, the SD, under Himmler's deputy Heydrich. The Gestapo grew even more powerful on the outbreak of war, as its tentacles spread all over the Occupied countries, using agents and local collaborators to undermine native resistance, using torture and death mercilessly to deter civilian populations from rising against their conquerors, and filling the concentration camps with fodder for mass extermination policies. Crankshaw details the known crimes of the Gestapo, showing its underlying responsibility in incidents of horrific dimensions where the chain of culpability has remained unclear. At Nuremberg the Gestapo was indicted as a criminal organisation, and its leaders war criminals. Edward Crankshaw, who in World War II was attached to the British Military Mission in Moscow, and afterwards, for over twenty years, was the highly regarded Correspondent on Soviet Affairs for the London Observer, examines in this valuable study the whole question of the Nazis' responsibility for crimes against humanity: was Nazi oppression a unique occurrence, or could such events happen again either in Germany or elsewhere? Gestapo: Instrument of Tyranny is a serious and comprehensive study of the development and use of evil in society, a sober revelation of the past and a warning for the future.

Stirring tales of military adventure Dramatic eyewitness accounts of battles, campaigns and massacres Covers the Crimean War, the Anglo~Zulu War, China and other campaigns. In this gripping compendium of exciting first~hand accounts, Ian Knight presents the adventure of nineteenth~century warfare ~ from the thrill of a cavalry charge to the terror of battle against an overwhelming force ~ in the words of the men actually there. These eyewitness accounts provide a vivid and sometimes shocking insight into the brutal realities of warfare for the British imperial soldier, who fought against many different enemies and in some of the most terrible conditions imaginable. These stirring tales of military adventure have been edited by Ian Knight and are now brought together and published in book form for the first time. Originally featured in turn~of~the~century magazines, popular during the heyday of empire, these historically valuable accounts throw considerable light on campaign conditions during Queen Victoria's colonial wars. Marching to the Drums includes accounts focusing on the experience of battle during such pivotal military events as the Sikh Wars, the Crimean War, the Afghan Wars, the Anglo~Zulu War, China, the Sudan and the Boer War. Ian Knight is one of the foremost experts on Zulu military history and nineteenth~century military campaigns. His other books include Brave Men's Blood, Nothing Remains But to Fight, The Anatomy of the Zulu Army and Go To Your God Like A Soldier.

This friend was August Kubizek. His account is unique in that it stands alone in offering insights into Hitler's character and mentality for the four years between 1904 and 1908. For every study of Hitler's early years, including the first parts of my own biography, Kubizek's story has proved an indispensable source. His recollections of his time together with Hitler, first published in 1953, are now in their sixth edition. An English translation, with an introduction by H. R. Trevor~Roper, later Lord Dacre, was published in 1954 and later reprinted, and has had to serve for those without access to the German original until the present. Yet this earlier English~language version was neither a complete nor an altogether satisfactory translation of Kubizek's German text. Numerous passages, in fact some entire chapters, were omitted. This new translation remedies these deficiencies and omissions. For the first time, it makes the entire text of Kubizek's recollections of his friendship with Hitler available to an English readership.".
