Civil-military relations have been a consistent theme of the history of the Weimar Republic. This study focuses on the career of General Walther Reinhardt, the last Prussian Minister of War and the First Head of the Army Command in the Weimar Republic.

The Great War for Peace
ISBN: 9780300173772 / Angielski / Twarda / 2014 / 456 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. A new look at the legacy of WWI, a war fought for peace yet followed by a century of devastating violence
"The war to end all wars" rings out a bitter mockery of the First World War, often viewed as the seminal catastrophe of the twentieth century, the crucible from which Soviet, Fascist, and Nazi dictatorships emerged. Today's conventional wisdom is that the Great War attuned the world to large-scale slaughter, that post-war efforts directed by the Treaty at Versailles were botched, that unbridled new nationalisms made the Second World War inevitable. This provocative book... A new look at the legacy of WWI, a war fought for peace yet followed by a century of devastating violence

A Historical Dictionary of American Industrial Language
ISBN: 9780313241710 / Angielski / Twarda / 1988 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. This dictionary is designed to make the industrial vocabulary of earlier eras understandable and accessible to contemporary investigation. It brings together in one place a great deal of information that has been widely scattered in obscure places. The specialized language of the shop, the mill, and other everyday settings, although initially familiar, becomes quite foreign in the context of general lanuage.
