History of the American Negro in the Great World War. Fully Illustrated
ISBN: 9781781392546 / Angielski / Miękka / 364 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This fully illustrated history of the involvement of African Americans in the First World War is very accessible and provides a wealth of information. But above all it shows the hope that the valiant fighting would bring recognition to black Americans. The optimism that pervades the book is, in the author's own words: -That a NEW day is dawning; HAS dawned for the Negro in America. A NEW liberty; broader and BETTER. A NEW Justice, unshaded by the spectre of: -Previous condition - That the unpaid toil of thirty decades of African slavery in America is at last to be liquidated.-

Dogfight Days: British Airmen in Combat During the First World War
ISBN: 9780857069047 / Angielski / Twarda / 156 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The war in the air the British flyers knew
This collection of anecdotes, accounts and reports of the activities of the R. F. C. during the First World War on the Western Front was originally published under the title, Thrilling Deeds of British Airmen by Eric Wood. The original title, perhaps, gives the potential reader some indication as to the tone of this book since it was written during the conflict itself and predictably is jingoistic in its style. So, given the partiality of the author, readers should not look to this work for 'a well-rounded view.' Nevertheless, it must be... The war in the air the British flyers knew

German Disarmament After World War I : The Diplomacy of International Arms Inspection 1920-1931
ISBN: 9780415654951 / Angielski / Miękka / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This work breaks new ground by arguing that the international disarmament of Germany after WWI was a success, not a failure as usually perceived - in short, that arms inspections worked and that they reduced Germany's ability to pose a threat to European security. This has obvious resonance with the recent events in Iraq.

Gallipoli: Making History
ISBN: 9780415647908 / Angielski / Miękka / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This new book traces the disparities in the memory of Gallipoli that are evident in the countries that participated in the campaign. It explores the way in which history is written at the personal, local, professional, and national levels. This study tackles key questions about just how the history of any given event comes to be written in a certain way and how very different versions of an event can compete for attention. Often one particular version holds the field drowning out its rivals. The Gallipoli campaign of 1915 serves as an excellent case study through which the process...

Who Wanted War?: The Origin of the War According to Diplomatic Documents
ISBN: 9781610271486 / Angielski / Miękka / 92 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. "WHO WANTED WAR?" is a historic monograph on, and argument about, the origins of World War I. Two famed University of Paris professors document their "brief" on the diplomatic and historic causes of the Great War, and especially its spread throughout Europe (and eventually to the United States). Published early on in the conflict-reading almost as current events-the tract serves as a fascinating rebuttal to the usual assumptions about the causes of the jarring leap from the Balkans to a pan-European war; it undermines the simplistic but accepted litany of interlaced alliances and the...

ISBN: 9781443841412 / Angielski / Twarda / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This book examines the impact of World War One on the people of Limerick. It traces how recruitment, which was weak at the commencement of the war increased locally after the leader of the Irish Parliamentary Party, John Redmond issued his call for Irish nationalists and others to enlist and as the war progressed how Sinn Fein separatists impinged on recruiting efforts. It also shows that the British War Office were unwitting contributors to the separatists cause by their ill conceived actions that only assisted them in their political cause and anti-recruiting campaign. It also shows that...

Lord Kitchener
ISBN: 9781447467533 / Angielski / Miękka / 36 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This early work by G. K. Chesterton was originally published in 1917.

The Ottoman Mobilization of Manpower in the First World War: Between Voluntarism and Resistance
ISBN: 9789004225206 / Angielski / Twarda / 346 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Ottoman Mobilization of Manpower in the First World War offers a multi-faceted story of how the Ottoman Empire tried to cope with the challenges of permanent mobilization under total war conditions which reshaped state-society relations. By focusing mainly on Anatolia and the Muslim population, Mehmet Beşikci argues that the conditions of mobilization pushed the Ottoman state to become more centralized, authoritarian and nationalist, but the increasing dependence on people paradoxically also enlarged their space of action vis-a-vis state authority. The book demonstrates that...
