An anthology of the Vietnam Era, When It Was Saigon is a book of short accounts of different veterans. It possesses the power of the personal touch as told by some who served during the Vietnam War Era in the 60’s and 70’s.

He conquered kingdoms. He saved Rome itself. And history nearly forgot him. Belisarius was the greatest general the Roman Empire produced after Caesar—yet he never ruled, never rebelled, and never claimed the power he was repeatedly offered. In The Last Roman General, you will follow the astonishing rise and quiet fall of the man who restored Rome when it seemed beyond saving.

Tatsächlich hatte Adolf Hitler jedoch eine Geliebte, deren Existenz bis zur letzten Stunde des «Dritten Reiches» geheim gehalten wurde: Eva Braun. Mit detektivischem Spürsinn wird in diesem Buch die Lebensgeschichte der Frau an Hitlers Seite rekonstruiert, die aus einem kleinbürgerlichen Haushalt bis in den inneren Zirkel des NS-Machthabers führte und einen Tag nach der Hochzeit im Berliner «Führerbunker» mit dem gemeinsamen Selbstmord am 30. April 1945 endete. Welche Rolle spielte die Geliebte in Hitlers privatem Kreis? Über wie viel Einfluss verfügte sie?

Any war is a mix of patriotism, brotherhood, and a whole lot of luck. This is the incredible, oftentimes hilarious story of Pat Moffett, a very lucky twenty-year old, a self-admitted street-smart wise-ass kid from Brooklyn who joined the United States Army’s famed 101st Airborne Division, and was shipped 8,000 miles away to the bloody war in Vietnam—and somehow, despite one misadventure after another, lived to tell this tale.

The temperature was 40 degrees below zero when fighter planes screamed out of the clouds, puncturing the fuselage with a spray of machinegun fire and sending the bomber beside them into a death spin. This was followed by intense flak, as a hundred cannons on the ground tried to blow them out of the sky.

El político y abogado Antonio Ledezma, quien fuera Alcalde Mayor del Distrito Metropolitano de Caracas, narra con extremo rigor cómo fue secuestrado, en dos ocasiones, por los órganos de seguridad del régimen venezolano, y describe las prisiones de las que se sirve la dictadura para reprimir a la oposición, tanto en la era de Hugo Chávez como en la actual, con el ilegítimo presidente de Venezuela, Nicolás Maduro, al frente del poder.

Im Greisenalter erinnert sich ein Niederschlesier an jene Zeit zurück, als er nach einer fliegerischen Ausbildung in einem Sonderkommando der Kriegsmarine an Süd- und Ostfront eingesetzt wurde. Im Schutze der Dunkelheit schwamm er im Mittelmeer und der Oder Sabotageeinsätze gegen Schiffe und Brücken.

The Memoirs of a Gunner offer a powerful, documentary style reflection of a young U.S. gunner's experiences in five major World War II battles. Written six decades later, he shares a rare, balanced and convincing view of the war he was part of as a paratrooper and combat soldier capturing both youthful emotion and enduring humanity. He describes several times moments of tragic events, which are part of the price for the later outcome. David Bowman talks not only about combat actions. There was still life 'in between' worth telling, when a huge army prepared for the next combat.

In Left of Leadership, Scott Stalker reveals the often-overlooked foundations that determine success or failure as a leader. Drawing from his remarkable journey—rising from a challenging childhood to a decorated 30+ year career in the Marine Corps and serving as the Senior Enlisted Advisor for the Defense Intelligence Agency, National Security Agency, Cyber Command, and Space Command—Stalker shares the critical steps to prepare for leadership before it begins.

Broken Mirrors, Steady Ground is a testament to survival—not as triumph, but as deliberate, daily choice. For anyone carrying unrelenting weight—veterans, chronic pain warriors, parents holding it together on fumes—this is proof that even a cracked reflection can still show the way forward.

Hearing the Echoes is a raw, unflinching memoir about living with the unrelenting auditory hallucinations of combat—mortar rounds slamming into the ground, explosions ripping through silence, and machine gun fire that erupts without warning. For years, these intrusive sounds dictated the terms of every interaction, fracturing relationships, demanding constant withdrawal, and leaving no room for sustained connection. This is not a story of transcendence or complete recovery.

L'exploit d'Oskar Schindler est connu, celui de Felix Kersten l'est beaucoup moins. Pourtant, un mémorandum du Congrès juif mondial établissait dès 1947 que cet homme avait sauvé en Allemagne « 100 000 personnes de diverses nationalités, dont environ 60 000 juifs ». Pour reconstituer cette dernière au travers des archives, des mémoires, des journaux, des notes et des dépositions des principaux protagonistes, il fallait un historien spécialiste de la Seconde Guerre mondiale qui soit également polyglotte.

Napoleón. La obsesión por el poder describe la vida de este singular personaje de espíritu guerrero, visionario y hábil en el arte de la guerra, que logró tener a media Europa a sus pies y se autoproclamó emperador de Francia. Hablar de Napoleón Bonaparte es hablar de un hombre ambicioso, poderoso y contradictorio que se ha convertido en una de las figuras más controversiales de la historia.

Between 1862 and 1865 Ambrose Bierce served in the Union Army in the Civil War. He was active as an infantryman and engineer, and fought at the Battle of Shiloh in 1862. Six autobiographical pieces were inspired by his wartime experiences and were published as a collection in 1909.

These are the combat experiences of the first Marine to command a special operations task force, recounted against a backdrop of his journey from raw Second Lieutenant to seasoned Colonel and Task Force Commander; from leading Marines through the streets of Mogadishu, Baghdad, Fallujah and Mosul to directing multi-national special operations forces in a dauntingly complex fight against a formidable foe.

Patton’s life was a patchwork of a hard-driving leadership style, a colorful and sarcastic personality, and a series of dire political missteps. His image is often contradictory. On one hand, he was a hot spark who could often fly off the handle and say and do things that were injurious to himself and others. On the other hand, he was a gifted orator whose capacity to inspire his troops was second to none. Reconciling those elements of his being can sometimes be a tricky proposition.
