› Find signed collectible books: 'Aircraft Versus Aircraft: The Illustrated Story of Fighter Pilot Combat Since 1914 to the Present Day'
As soon as the first aeroplane had proved its value in war it became a target, and the fighter pilot was born. This book tells the story of the men and the aircraft in which they fought, from the rudimentary beginnings of tactics to the sophisticated technology of the present day.
Using diagrammatic paintings and pinpoint line artwork, the author illustrates the often complex manoeuvres of air combat, and tells the stories of fighter aces such as Baron von Richthofen, Albert Ball, Saburo Sakai, "Sailor" Malan and Joseph McConnell. The book includes strategy and tactics from World War I, World War II, Korea, Vietnam, Falklands and the Gulf. [via]

A detailed account of the Normandy campaign fought by the British Armoured Divisions and independant Armoured Brigades, from the D-Day landings to Operation Goodwood. The Author, an acknowledged British armor specialist, has divided his work into three parts: the units involved, the AFVs fielded in Normandy, and the doctrine of use of the High Command with its actual effect on the battlefield.
Equipped in some cases with obsolescent vehicles, their personnel often under-motivated but often inventive, the British tank formations did not always answer the hopes of the Allied military planners. This book gives a fresh point of view on the whole question. REVIEWS "...an excellent look at the 'hardware' of the British forces... photos are well- chosen...very well-researched and is extremely well-written."Armorama [via]More editions of British Tanks in Normandy:

› Find signed collectible books: 'Death of a Hero'
Of all the deaths in Northern Ireland's troubled history, few have aroused more controversy than that of British Army Captain Robert Nairac. In 1977, he was abducted outside a South Armagh pub, driven over the border to the Irish Republic, then interrogated and executed by the IRA. But what was he doing alone in a notorious Republican stronghold? Was he linked with an SAS shoot-to-kill policy? Was he betrayed? Crucially, where's his body?
Parker, a veteran Fleet Street journalist, has a string of investigative works to his bow including the bestselling Inside Story of the Special Boat Service, and seems well qualified to examine the mystery of Nairac's undercover operations. Drawing on new first-hand evidence from senior Army and SAS sources, he pieces together Nairac's final days in a fresh, compelling narrative, dispelling many of the conspiracy theories that have fermented over the past 20 years.
Parker's account, however, cannot be considered conclusive for much of the evidence he puts forward is contradictory. But what does come over very well and surprisingly is the man himself--a Catholic golden boy, Oxford educated, recruited by military intelligence--"A romantic and a bit of a Loner" who loved the country he spied on, who passionately believed he could help heal the sectarian divide and bring peace. Included are eight pages of photos, many of them grainy, but this only adds resonance to the story--family and school snapshots of a remarkable man who lived and died in a remarkable way. --Jim Rickards [via]

In July 1977, "Ender's Game" appeared as a novelette in Analog magazine. The science fiction community immediately embraced it, nominating it for a Hugo award, and when Orson Scott Card turned it into a novel in 1985, it won both the Hugo and Nebula Award.
Now, twenty-five years later, First Meetings celebrates "Ender's Game" by reprinting that original story along with two others, one of which has never before been published anywhere.
In "The Polish Boy," Ender's father, as a child, has a chance to end the persecution that his parents have suffered because they defied the law and had more than two children.
"Investment Counselor" takes place after "Ender's Game," when Ender first meets Jane, the extremely useful--though temperamental--personal digital assistant who will transform his life.
The Subterranean Press edition of First Meetings is the only edition, with a full-color wraparound dust jacket, as well as a two-color illustration for each story. [via]

|Hagakure ("In the Shadow of Leaves"') is a manual for the samurai classes consisting of a series of short anecdotes and reflections that give both insight and instruction-in the philosophy and code of behavior that foster the true spirit of Bushido-the Way of the Warrior. It is not a book of philosophy as most would understand the word: it is a collection of thoughts and sayings recorded over a period of seven years, and as such covers a wide variety of subjects, often in no particular sequence.
The work represents an attitude far removed from our modern pragmatism and materialism, and posesses an intuitive rather than rational appeal in its assertion that Bushido is a Way of Dying, and that only a samurai retainer prepared and willing to die at any moment can be totally true to his lord. While Hagakure was for many years a secret text known only to the warrior vassals of the Hizen fief to which the author belonged, it later came to be recognized as a classic exposition of samurai thought and came to influence many subsequent generations, including Yukio Mishima.
This translation offers 300 selections that constitute the core texts of the 1,300 present in the original. [via]

At the center of this massive and brilliant book is the most universal of man's cities: Jerusalem, the mystic heart of three great religions, condemned to pay for the passions it inspires by being, through forty centuries, the most bitterly disputed site in the world.
Collins and Lapierre's story is the fruit of five years of intensive research and many thousands of interviews. It is the epic drama of 1948, in which the Arabs and the Jews, heirs to generations of bitter conflict in a land sacred to them both, fought each other for the city of Jerusalem and for the hopes of fulfillment it represented to each. Here is the account of that struggle that encompasses the full spectrum of its participants, whose experiences, emotions, and acts of bravery have been meticulously brought together and illumined in this monumental and dramatic work.

El presente libro, basado en un influyente artículo que "ha configurado la totalidad de los debates políticos de estos últimos años" (Foreign Policy), es un informe incisivo y profético, en la línea del Francis Fukuyama de El fin de la historia, sobre las distintas formas adoptadas por la política mundial tras la caída del comunismo. La fuente fundamental de conflictos en el universo posterior a la guerra fría, según Huntington, no tiene raíces ideológicas o económicas, sino más bien culturales: "El choque de civilizaciones dominará la política a escala mundial; las líneas divisorias entre las civilizaciones serán los frentes de batalla del futuro". Y, a medida que la gente se vaya definiendo por su etnia o su religión, Occidente se encontrará más y más enfrentado con civilizaciones no occidentales que rechazarán frontalmente sus más típicos ideales: la democracia, los derechos humanos, la libertad, la soberanía de la ley y la separación entre la Iglesia y el Estado. Así, Huntington --al tiempo que presenta un futuro lleno de conflictos, gobernado por unas relaciones internacionales abiertamente "desoccidentalizadas"-- acaba recomendando un más sólido conocimiento de las civilizaciones no occidentales, con el fin, paradójicamente, de potenciar al máximo la influencia occidental, ya sea a través del fortalecimiento de las relaciones entre Rusia y Japón, del aprovechamiento de las diferencias existentes entre los estados islámicos o del mantenimiento de la superioridad militar en el este y el sudeste asiáticos.

El presente libro, que considera la guerra como la más severa prueba a que puedan enfrentarse hombres y mujeres, es una obra maestra de la teoría política y moral. En la obra se mezclan los ejemplos históricos, las opiniones de los decisores y participantes en conflictos armados, así como la tradición filosófica, teológica y politológica sobre el tema. Concretamente, se ocupa del ius ad bellum, justicia o injusticia del recurso de la guerra; del ius in bellum, la justicia o injustica de las conductas que se dan o pueden darse una vez iniciadas las hostilidades; y del ius post bellum, la justicia o injusticia de los acuerdos y tratados de paz. En los tres campos la aportación de Walzer es novedosa, alejada del pensamiento convencional acerca de la guerra convencional dominante en la teoría internacional, y apropiada para analizar la conflictividad armada de la posguerra fría, donde los conflictos armados entre Estados son la excepción. Esta edición aborda en su prefacio el problema de las implicaciones morales de la intervención en los incontables conflictos interétnicos que fueron moneda corriente en la pasada década de los noventa, y aporta una serie de ejemplos históricos que van desde el ataque de los atenienses a la isla-Estado de Melos hasta la masacre de My-Lay. "En nuestros días, el lenguaje de la teoría de la guerra justa se utiliza prácticamente en todas partes, y lo mismo está en boca de los gobernantes legítimos que en la de los ilegítimos. Es difícil imaginar una intervención militar que no reciba el apoyo de sus promotores... De hecho, únicamente en los Estados democráticos pueden los ciudadanos unirse a la polémica con libertad y sentido crítico. Este libro fue escrito para ellos, en la creencia de que la teoría de la guerra justa es una guía necesaria para la toma de decisiones democráticas."MICHAEL WALZER [via]

Sous couvert de devoir d'État, le général Aussaresses a torturé impunément. Envoyé par l'État français en 1955 à Philippeville, en Algérie, en tant qu'officier des renseignements, il est vite mis "dans le bain" des traditions locales par ses collègues militaires et policiers.
(...) tu verras bien ce qui est le plus dur : torturer un terroriste présumé ou expliquer aux parents des victimes qu'il vaut mieux laisser tuer des dizaines d'innocents plutôt que de faire souffrir un seul coupable.Argument simpliste qui réduit à néant toutes les inhibitions d'Aussaresses :
J'en conclus que personne n'aurait jamais le droit de nous juger et que, même si mes fonctions m'amenaient à faire des choses très désagréables, je ne devrais jamais avoir de regrets.Le ton est donné et c'est précisément ce ton presque cynique, tout simplement narratif, avec force détails, qui rend pénible la lecture de cet ouvrage.
Certes, Aussaresses livre là un témoignage qui lève un peu plus le voile qui masque la Guerre d'Algérie. Quitte à subir l'opprobre de ses collègues militaires qui voient dans cet ouvrage une atteinte à l'honneur du secret militaire. Certes, il pousse la France à ouvrir un dossier que certains auraient préféré oublier. Mais, était-il nécessaire pour autant de faire l'apologie de la torture ? À Philippeville comme à Alger, à la Villa des Tournelles ? Et de lire
Les jours de grande affluence, on m'envoyait systématiquement ceux que les régiments, submergés, n'avaient pas le temps d'interroger. (...) La torture était systématiquement utilisée si le prisonnier refusait de parler, ce qui était très souvent le cas.Et ensuite ?
La plupart du temps, mes hommes partaient à une vingtaine de kilomètres d'Alger dans les "maquis lointains" et les suspects étaient abattus d'une rafale de mitraillette, puis enterrés.L'homme des services spéciaux de la bataille d'Alger a une bonne mémoire. Il tenait un journal de bord.
À la fin de chaque nuit, je relatais les événements sur la page d'un carnet top-secret (...).
