Nerva and the Roman Succession Crisis of AD 96-99
ISBN: 9780415289177 / Angielski / Twarda / 2002 / 192 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The imperial succession at Rome was notoriously uncertain, and where possible hereditary succession was preferred. But when the infamous emperor Domitian was assassinated in AD 96, he had no sons and had executed several family members who might have succeeded him; the uncertain situation provoked a dangerous crisis. John Grainger's study looks at this period of intrigue and conspiracy. He explores how, why and by whom Domitian was killed, the rule of Nerva, chosen to succeed him, and finally Nerva's own choice of successor, Trajan, who became a strong and respected emperor against the odds....

The Battle for Palestine, 1917
ISBN: 9781783272556 / Angielski / Miękka / 2017 / 300 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Three battles for the control of the key fortress-city of Gaza took place in 1917 between the British' force (with units from across the Empire, most notably the ANZACs) and the Turks. The Allies were repulsed twice but on their third attempt, under the newly appointed General Allenby, a veteran of the Western Front where he was a vocal critic of Haig's command, finally penetrated Turkish lines, captured southern Palestine and, as instructed by Lloyd George, took Jerusalem in time for Christmas, ending 400 years of Ottoman occupation. This third battle, similar in many ways to the...

Dictionary of British Naval Battles
ISBN: 9781783271641 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 602 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. This very substantial, comprehensive dictionary contains entries on all the battles fought at sea by British fleets and ships since Anglo-Saxon times. Major battles, such as Trafalgar or Jutland, minor actions, often convoy and frigate actions, troop landings, bombardments and single ship actions are all covered. Most accounts of British naval power focus on the big battles and the glorious victories - the picture which emerges from the rich detail in this dictionary, however, is of a busy, dispersed navy, almost constantly engaged in small scale activity - taking prizes in the eighteenth...

Kings and Kingship in the Hellenistic World 350-30 BC
ISBN: 9781473863750 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Between c.350 BC and 30 BC the Mediterranean world was one in which kings ruled. The exceptions were the Greek cities and Roman Italy. But for most of that period neither of these republican areas was central to events. For the crucial centuries between Alexander the Great and the Roman conquest of Macedon, the political running was made by kings, and it is their work and loves and experience which is the subject here. Rome's expansion extinguished a series of monarchies and pushed back the area which was ruled by kings for a time, but the process of building a republican empire eventually...

Alexander the Great Failure: The Collapse of the Macedonian Empire
ISBN: 9780826443946 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 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 First Pacific War: Britain and Russia, 1854-56
ISBN: 9781843833543 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 / 207 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 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,...

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....
