Paperback. Etat : Very Good. "Monumental." --New York Times Book Review NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From one of the foremost historians of the period and the acclaimed author of Inferno and Catastrophe: 1914, The Secret War is a sweeping examination of one of the most important yet underexplored aspects of World War II--intelligence--showing how espionage successes and failures by the United States, Britain, Russia, Germany, and Japan influenced the course of the war and its final outcome. Spies, codes, and guerrillas played unprecedentedly critical roles in the Second World War, exploited by every nation in the struggle to gain secret knowledge of its foes, and to sow havoc behind the fronts. In The Secret War, Max Hastings presents a worldwide cast of characters and some extraordinary sagas of intelligence and resistance, to create a new perspective on the greatest conflict in history. This definitive global history of World War II intelligence reveals: Espionage and Counter-Espionage: A worldwide cast of characters from Britain's MI6, America's OSS, Germany's Abwehr, and the Soviet NKVD engage in a high-stakes shadow war. The Codebreakers: The story of Bletchley Park, the monumental effort to crack the German Enigma cipher, and how Ultra intelligence shaped Allied strategy from the Battle of the Atlantic to D-Day. Legendary Spies and Agents: Follow the extraordinary sagas of real-life spies, including the infamous Cambridge Five, Tokyo-based master spy Richard Sorge, and the valet known as 'Cicero'. Guerrilla Warfare and Resistance: An unflinching look at how partisans and resistance movements fought back, from the campaigns of the SOE to the vast and brutal Soviet partisan operations. Successes and Failures: A masterful analysis of how secret knowledge truly changed outcomes--and how pivotal blunders and overlooked intelligence could lead to disaster.…

Paperback. Etat : Good. "A resourceful, even intrepid, piece of reportage . . . A book of unusual immediacy, one that has the unmistakable ring of authenticity." --Jonathan Yardley, The Washington Post Book World "A very good piece of battle reporting . . . especially vivid." --Washington Monthly Prior to gaining international renown for his definitive biography of Che Guevara and first-hand reporting on the war in Iraq for the New Yorker, Jon Lee Anderson wrote Guerrillas, a pioneering account of five diverse insurgent movements around the world--the mujahedin of Afghanistan, the FMLN of El Salvador, the Karen of Burma, the Polisario of Western Sahara, and a group of young Palestinians fighting against Israel in the Gaza Strip.

Paperback. Etat : Fair. From the Nobel Prize-winning author comes a novel of exile, displacement, and the agonizing cruelty and pain of colonialism, both for those who rule and those who are their victims. "A brilliant novel in every way. [It] shimmers with artistic certainty." --The New York Times Book Review Set on a troubled Carribbean island, where "everybody wants to fight his own little war," where "everyone is a guerrilla," the novel centers on an Englishman named Roche, once a hero of the South African resistance, who has come to the island - subdued now, almost withdrawn - to work and to help. Soon his English mistress arrives: casually nihilistic, bored, quickly enticed - excited - by fantasies of native power and sexuality, and blindly unaware of any possible consequences of her acts. At once Roche and Jane are drawn into fatal connection with a young guerrilla leader named Jimmy Ahmed, a man driven by his own raging fantasies of power, of perverse sensuality, and of the England he half remembers, half sentimentalizes. Against the larger anguish of the world they inhabit, these three act out a drama of death, hideous sexual violence, and political and spiritual impotence that profoundly reflects the ravages history can make on human lives.…

Hardback. Etat : Very Good. American Guerrillas is a compelling narrative history of how Americans have fought unconventional warfare from the French and Indian Wars and the Revolution through the anti-insurgent campaigns of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan. A timely volume, the author provides the reader with a concise and engaging story of how the American approach to guerrilla warfare has been molded and executed, and how these small scale engagements have been integral to the success of our nation's larger battles. The conventional view of popular American military history has been focused upon large-scale conflicts. American Guerrillas will attract history buffs as it puts guerrilla warfare into the larger context.…
