Innocent Abroad: Belgium at the Paris Peace Conference of 1919
ISBN: 9780807897201 / Angielski / Miękka / 480 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. German violation of Belgian neutrality escalated the 1914 hostilities into a world war, and disagreement about Belgium's future did much to block a compromise peace. In the postwar decade, Belgium's role as intermediary between France and Britain was pivotal, and its primary concerns reveal mush about postwar Europe's search for stability. Yet, at the Paris Peace Conference, Belgium emerged with little to show for its suffering.

ISBN: 9780857065360 / Angielski / Miękka / 172 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. The Union Army's green riflemen at war
The important role of sharpshooters on the battlefield had been recognised by armies since the time when firearms were developed with a greater degree of accuracy. This key factor combined with a soldier of higher intelligence, capable of independent thought and action and skilful in the use of his weapons, made for a highly effective light infantryman, skirmisher and scout. Green was often their uniform colour irrespective of the nation they served, for it referenced the 'hunter' from whose origin their service developed in spirit and action. In the...

It was 1862 when a 17 year old Margaret Nichol Vaulx, growing up during a time of great national strife wrote the words, "that I may be in after years an ornament to society and the delight of my dear parents." She came of age during the American Civil War and has left us writings which are that very ornament which she so prophetically spoke of.

Maggie's journals have been described as both national and state treasures and as one Belmont University journalism instructor said, "she...
