Его называют карателем, посланником богов, всадником из льда. Упоминание о нем вызывает дрожь и ужас. Его именем пугают не детей, а взрослых. Он тот, кто когда-то был обычным человеком, но по воле злого рока навсегда перестал им быть. Его сердце покрылось льдом, а в глазах застыли лики смерти. Именно его я должна найти, чтобы хотя бы попытаться пробудить в посланнике богов забытые когда-то чувства.

Saddam Hussein ruled Iraq as a dictator for nearly a quarter century before the fall of his regime in 2003. Using the Ba'th party as his organ of meta-control, he built a broad base of support throughout Iraqi state and society. Why did millions participate in his government, parrot his propaganda, and otherwise support his regime when doing so often required betraying their families, communities, and beliefs? Why did the 'Husseini Ba'thist' system prove so durable through uprisings, two wars, and United Nations sanctions?
Drawing from a wealth of documents discovered at the Ba'th party's central headquarters in Baghdad following the US-led invasion in 2003,The Ba'thification of Iraqanalyzes how Hussein and the party inculcated loyalty in the population.

With its mixture of famous battles and storied commanders, warfare in 4th century B.C. Greece has long held a fascination for military enthusiasts and the general public alike.

On 16 October 1946 Joachim von Ribbentrop, Hitler’s wartime Foreign Minister, was executed at Nuremberg, convicted on four counts including deliberately planning a war of aggression and war crimes.
In this first English Language edition of his memoirs, Rudolf von Ribbentrop frankly describes his relationship with his father when he was the German Ambassador in London and during the war years. Von Ribbentrop was an often isolated figure among the Nazi elite. In his final report from London von Ribbentrop informed Hitler that he was convinced that Great Britain would fight for its position in the world. He went on to play a key role forging the short-lived pact with Stalin’s Soviet Union.

Многие из вас наверняка слышали о договоре с нечистой силой. Человек, заключивший контракт, получает возможность изменить на некоторое время свою жизнь, а взамен его душа идет в дьявольскую копилочку. Вроде бы все просто: ты — мне, я — тебе. Только вот не все играют по правилам, и сделка, заключенная наивной смертной, имела больше последствий, чем она могла бы себе представить.

The Italian Renaissance has come to occupy an almost mythical place in the popular imagination. The outsized reputations of the best-known figures from the period—Michelangelo, Niccolo Machiavelli, Lorenzo the Magnificent, Pope Julius II, Isabella d'Este, and so many others—engender a kind of wonder. How could so many geniuses or exceptional characters be produced by one small territory near the extreme south of Europe at a moment when much of the rest of the continent still labored under the restrictions of the Middle Ages? How did so many of the driving principles behind Western civilization emerge during this period—and how were they defined and developed?
