Seleukos Nikator (Routledge Revivals): Constructing a Hellenistic Kingdom
ISBN: 9780415743990 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 8 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Following the death of Alexander the Great in 323 BC, one of his commanders, Seleukos Nikator, rose over a period of forty years from being a landless refugee to the most successful of the Successor kings. This biography, first published in 1990, makes use of both historical and archaeological sources to trace the stages of Seleukos' life as he added province to province, kingdom to kingdom, gradually building an empire which stretched from India to Greece and founding a state which lasted for the next two centuries. This strangely neglected figure in ancient history emerges as a modestly...

The Maritime Blockade of Germany in the Great War: The Northern Patrol, 1914-1918
ISBN: 9780754635369 / Angielski / Twarda / 2019 / 874 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Tenth Cruiser Squadron of the Grand Fleet had the task of patrolling the seas between Scotland and Greenland to intercept enemy ships trying to escape into the ocean and merchant ships who could be carrying goods destined for Germany. This was a task of great political sensitivity, since almost all the ships intercepted were neutrals, and requiring great physical endurance from ships and men in the violent North Atlantic. The Maritime Blockade of Germany in the Great War is a comprehensive collection of the records of the Northern Patrol. It consists of regular reports of the admirals in...

The Mahdi and Africa: Muhammad Ahmad and Sudan's Mahdist Revolution in Context
ISBN: 9781036137441 / Angielski / Twarda / 2025 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 8-10 dni roboczych. The story of the Mahdi of Sudan is generally related from the British point of view, though it was more an African event. The Mahdi’s uprising was the latest in a series of Islamic rebellions and wars which began in the eighteenth century. It also had a profound effect on the rest of North and East Africa, destroying the Egyptian Empire, provoking Ethiopia into a new unification, which allowed it to successfully resist the Mahdists, the Egyptians, and the Italians; it brought British forces forward from the East African coast as far as Uganda for fear that some European power would seize...

The Battle of Yorktown, 1781: A Reassessment
ISBN: 9781843831372 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 214 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Yorktown (1781), where a British Army, commanded by Lord Cornwallis, surrendered to the American forces under George Washington and their French allies, has generally been considered one of the decisive battles of the American War of Independence. This accessible and authoritative account of the battle and the wider campaign goes back to original source material (diaries, letters, speeches, and newspapers), offering both a narrative of the events themselves, and an analysis of how the defeat came about and why it came to be seen as crucial. It shows that the battle was really a siege, that it...

The Cities of Pamphylia
ISBN: 9781842173343 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Pamphylia, in modern Turkey, was a Greek country from the early Iron Age until the Middle Ages. In that land there were nine cities which can be described more or less as Greek, and this book is an investigation of their history. This was a land at the margins of other great empires - Hellenistic, Roman, Arab and Byzantine - and is still off the beaten track, though Aspendos, Perge and Phaselis are all visited for their archaeology. Only one ancient source, Strabo, discusses the area at any length, and John Grainger therefore has to bring together a wide variety of exiguous and fragmentary...

Alexander the Great Failure: The Collapse of the Macedonian Empire
ISBN: 9781847251886 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Alexander the Great's empire stretched across three continents and his achievements changed the nature of the ancient world. But for all his military prowess and success as a conqueror, John Grainger argues that he was one of history's great failures. Alexander's arrogance was largely responsible for his own premature death; and he was personally culpable for the failure of his imperial enterprise. For Alexander was king of a society where the ruler was absolutely central to the well-being of society as a whole. When the king failed, the Macedonian kingdom imploded, something which had...

The Amiens Truce: Britain and Bonaparte 1801 - 1803
ISBN: 9781843830412 / Angielski / Twarda / 2004 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In 1801 Britain and Bonaparte made an armistice, which became the Treaty of Amiens in March 1802. In the brief period of peace which followed, British attitudes underwent a major change, so that when war began again in May 1803 there was little or no dissent from the view that the war had to be fought to a finish and Bonaparte's power destroyed. This was partly the result of Bonaparte's underhand methods during negotiations; but it was also due to the conclusion reached by the many British visitors to France during the interval of peace that Bonaparte was extremely dangerous, anger at his...

Great Power Diplomacy in the Hellenistic World
ISBN: 9781472484291 / Angielski / Twarda / 2016 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Diplomacy is a neglected aspect of Hellenistic history, despite the fact that war and peace were the major preoccupations of the rulers of the kingdoms of the time. It becomes clear that it is possible to discern a set of accepted practices which were generally followed by the kings from the time of Alexander to the approach of Rome. The republican states were less bound by such practices, and this applies above all to Rome and Carthage. By concentrating on diplomatic institutions and processes, therefore, it is possible to gain a new insight into the relations between the kingdoms....

The First Pacific War: Britain and Russia, 1854-56
ISBN: 9781843833543 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 207 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Crimean War' was much more than a series of battles in the Crimea. One of the most neglected aspects has been the naval campaign in the Pacific Ocean - as highlighted in this full-scale survey, which brings out the involvement of China and Japan. The campaign took a joint British and French squadron from Chile to Kamchatka, to be defeated in battle at Petropavlovsk - where the British Admiral committed suicide. Despite their victory, the Russians withdrew from all their Pacific coastal settlements, and the British and French concentrated on searching for the mouth of the Amur River,...
