ISBN: 9781845748210 / Angielski / Miękka / 276 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. General Sir Ian Hamilton was a brave ( twice recommended for the VC); cultured (he wrote and published his own poetry) and civilised sldier - with a breadth of interests and intellect rare indeed in the often hidebound ranks of the British army at the acme of Empire.

Aged 62, and not universally admired in the Army, he lacked the ruthlessness of truly great commanders. After the element of surprise was lost when warhips trying to rush the...

Churchill's Dilemma: The Real Story Behind the Origins of the 1915 Dardanelles Campaign
ISBN: 9780313384745 / Angielski / Twarda / 343 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "Churchill's Dilemma: The Real Story Behind the Origins of the 1915 Dardanelles Campaign" is an entirely original study of the origins of the disastrous Dardanelles Campaign of 1915 and Winston Churchill's role in it. The work challenges long-held beliefs about Churchill's actions as First Lord, including the perceptions that he had a preoccupation with the Dardanelles bordering on obsession, and that he only reluctantly promoted a naval-only attempt to force the Dardanelles because there were no troops available for a full-scale amphibious assault on the Peninsula. Opening with a brief... "Churchill's Dilemma: The Real Story Behind the Origins of the 1915 Dardanelles Campaign" is an entirely original study of the origins of the disas... |

Missed Signals on the Western Front: How the Slow Adoption of Wireless Restricted British Strategy and Operations in World War I
ISBN: 9780786449378 / Angielski / Miękka / 236 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Though the medium of wireless communication was in relative infancy during World War I, the technology could have made a profound impact on tactical operations and on the entire strategic conduct of the war. Providing details on how and why the technology did not fulfill its promise as a great military tool until years later, the book points primarily to the British Army's institutional bias against wireless communication as the technology's downfall, reinforced by the crude, unreliable wireless sets with which the army began the war. It also demonstrates how improved wireless communications...
