From Martin Dugard, #1 New York Times bestselling coauthor of Bill O'Reilly's Killing series—with more than twelve million copies sold—comes a fast-paced, dramatic account of the famous yet little understood battle that turned the tide of World War II.

WHAT IF THE THIRD REICH NEVER REALLY ENDED? Operation Ghost Reich: From Bavaria to Buenos Aires rips open sealed archives, Vatican rat-lines, and Mossad dossiers to reveal the labyrinth that let Hitler's most ruthless lieutenants vanish, only to re-emerge as "respectable" neighbors, engineers, and even Cold War assets. THE CHASE BEGINS ON A FOG-SOAKED BAVARIAN PLATFORM May 1945: forged Red Cross papers, rosaries hiding SS gold, and a ghost train headed south mark the moment thousands of war criminals step off history's stage and into suburbia. Their escape ignites a five-part global pursuit...

"Greetings from the President." I could hardly believe what I was reading. I had just been drafted into the US Army, the last thing I expected. It was certainly not what my parents or fiancee wanted to hear. Enclosed in these pages are my personal experiences from a tour served in Vietnam during the war. This book is written in my own words; these are my memories of life on the battlefront in a land foreign to me. I hope this recounting will help my family and posterity comprehend the great sacrifices made by brave and frightened soldiers in wartime. These sacrifices have protected freedoms...

You’ve heard him as host of the Fighter Pilot Podcast. More than 100k listeners have been waiting for this book. Now ride along. From the cockpit of a Navy jet circling overhead, an aircraft carrier—1,000 feet long and displacing 98,000 tons—looks no bigger than a child’s toy. No wonder the fighter pilots call it a boat. Try landing on one of these bucking broncos without boltering.

Widely regarded as a classic on the Vietnam War, Decent Interval provides a scathing critique of the CIA's role in and final departure from that conflict. Still the most detailed and respected account of America's final days in Vietnam, the book was written at great risk and ultimately at great sacrifice by an author who believed in the CIA's cause but was disillusioned by the agency's treacherous withdrawal, leaving thousands of Vietnamese allies to the mercy of an angry enemy.

General Washington’s geniously devised ambush of the German mercenaries at Trenton… General Eisenhower’s creation and utilization of the Ghost Army against the Nazi regime… The Japanese surprise attack on the US Army, Navy, and Marine Corps units at Pearl Harbor... The First Marine Expeditionary Force use of white phosphorus artillery rounds in Fallujah… What do all these military engagements have in common? How do they parallel the very real, spiritual battle which rages in the unseen realm if this battle actually exists?

"All warfare is based on deception." With this insight, Sun Tzu invites us into the mind of one of history’s greatest military strategists.

Sun Tzu’s treatise explores the profound nature of strategy.

BODY SNATCHING: The Shocking Untold True Story of Project Sunshine A Cold-War Secret Buried in Bones What if the greatest nuclear cover-up wasn't an explosion - but a grave robbery? Body Snatching exposes Project Sunshine, the US-led program that harvested more than 1,500 corpses and ultimately catalogued 21,830 bone specimens - one-third taken from infants - to map radioactive fallout inside the human body. From morgues in Chicago to funeral homes in Australia, agents carved limbs from the dead, stitched the bodies to disguise the theft, and air-shipped the samples on dry ice to secret ...

They were crop dusters and debutantes, college girls and performers in flying circuses—all of them trained as pilots. Because they were women, they were denied the opportunity to fly for their country when the United States entered the Second World War. But Great Britain, desperately fighting for survival, would let anyone—even Americans, even women—transport warplanes. Thus, twenty-five daring young aviators bolted for England in 1942, becoming the first American women to command military aircraft.

The Houdini Club captures the personal drama of World War II Special Forces warfare. The men of maverick Colonel William O. Darby's Rangers had abundant tales of glory, yes, but also tales of misery, fear, and murderous intent. Then, there was the utter exhaustion contrasted by the thrill of combat, the devastating final battle that all but destroyed them, and the ingenuity and sheer determination that made the highly vaunted German Afrika Korps and veteran German Parachute and Panzer units marvel at their guerilla tactics and their prison breakouts.

The best book I’ve ever read! — Soto (Which, to be fair, doesn’t mean much. Soto’s in the book and hasn’t read many.) These are the stories no recruiter will ever tell you. No battlefield medals. No hero speeches. Just a group of misfit soldiers stuck overseas during the COVID era — dodging wild boars, breaking rules, and trying not to lose their minds. I’m Chase — formerly Sergeant Thweatt. Freed from any obligation to the U.S. Government, I can finally tell you what military life is actually like behind the scenes. I wrote this book for two reasons: • First, to tell my ...

The world is currently closer to superpower conflict than at any time since the 1962 Cuban Missile Crisis. World War III is a real possibility, and with 12,000 warheads in the arsenals of more than half a dozen countries, we are standing on a nuclear knife edge. Despite receiving very little attention, nuclear war is a far greater threat to humanity's immediate survival than climate change. While climate heating threatens humanity over many decades, nuclear war could destroy civilisation in just a few hours.

Even as scores of Americans rally to the Ukrainian cause and adopt Volodymyr Zelensky as a hero, the lives of Ukrainians remain opaque and mostly anonymous. In By the Second Spring, the historian Danielle Leavitt goes beyond familiar portraits of wartime heroism and victimhood to reveal the human experience of the conflict. An American who grew up in Ukraine, Leavitt draws on her deep familiarity with the country and a unique trove of online diaries to track a diverse group of Ukrainians through the first year of Russia’s full-scale invasion.

How could the SS have committed the crimes they did? How were the killers who shot Jews at close quarters able to perpetrate this horror? Why did commandants of concentration and death camps willingly—often enthusiastically—oversee mass murder? How could ordinary Germans have tolerated the removal of the Jews? In The Nazi Mind, bestselling historian Laurence Rees seeks answers to some of the most perplexing questions surrounding the Second World War and the Holocaust.

From the cockpit of an F/A-18 Hornet, U.S. Navy Commander Frank Weisser conveys the lessons he learned flying as the Lead Solo for the Blue Angels, on multiple combat deployments, and as stunt pilot for Top Gun: Maverick. Each chapter opens with a flight sequence and describes a lesson, skill, or value that Weisser learned in the sky and that carried him through a life of service with the Navy: finding focus, developing trust, opening communication, overcoming adversity, facing failure, and recognizing courage within oneself.

Ground Combat reveals the gritty details of land warfare at the tactical level and challenges today's overly subjective and often inaccurate approaches to characterizing war. Ben Connable's motivation for writing the book is to offer an evidence-based approach to examining the future of war.

Jungle Hostages, CIA Ties, and a Ghost Helicopter The Shocking True Story of Operation Jaque Fifteen hostages. A fake NGO. A guerrilla army conned on live radio. This isn’t fiction. This is psychological warfare at its most daring. On July 2, 2008, a battered helicopter lifted off from the Colombian jungle. Inside were shackled hostages—three American contractors, a former Colombian presidential candidate, and others who had endured years of brutal captivity under the Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia (FARC). But something was wrong. The helicopter crew weren’t rebels—they were...

1914 and the start of WW1, the Royal Navy has a tiny, fledgling air service with a small number of unreliable and underperforming aircraft, with no real clue about how to use them. Four years later, they had thousands of fighters including the best of the war, hundreds of seaplanes and the ships to carry them and hundreds of airships patrolling for submarines. They had been used at sea and overland from the Dardanelles to the Western Front and the Mediterranean. Bob Hunt was one of those early aviators. His story and that of his friend Arnold St John-Stevens form the narrative of how the ...

Following the executions of the 1916 leaders, a new government policy of conciliation was attempted but quickly faltered. Rebel prisoners were released, the Great War reached its climax, and Ireland was gripped by the conscription crisis and subsequent resentment over exclusion from ...
