Marcus Garvey, Claude McKay, Claudia Jones, C.L.R. James, Stokely Carmichael, Louis Farakhan-the roster of immigrants from the Caribbean who have made a profound impact on the development of radical politics in the United States is extensive. In this magisterial and lavishly illustrated work, Winston James focuses on the twentieth century's first waves of immigrants from the Caribbean and their contribution to political dissidence in America.\nExamining the way in which the characteristics of the societies they left shaped their perceptions of the land to which they traveled, Winston James draws sharp differences between Hispanic, Anglophone, and other non-Hispanic arrivals. He explores the interconnections between the Cuban independence struggle, Puerto Rican nationalism, Afro-American feminism, and black communism in the first turbulent decades of the twentieth century. He also provides fascinating insights into the peculiarities of Puerto Rican radicalism's impact in New York City and recounts the remarkable story of Afro-Cuban radicalism in Florida. Virgin Islander Hubert Harrison, whom A. Philip Randolph dubbed 'the father of Harlem radicalism', is rescued from the historical shadows by James's analysis of his pioneering contribution to Afro-America's radical tradition. In addition to a subtle re-examination of Garvey's Universal Negro Movement Association-including the exertions and contributions of its female members-James provides the most detailed exploration so far undertaken of Cyril Briggs and his little-known but important African Blood Brotherhood.\nThis diligently researched, wide ranging and sophisticated book will be welcomed by all those interested in the Caribbean and its emigres, the Afro-American current within America's radical tradition, and the history, politics, and culture of the African diaspora.

L’impero laconiano è caduto, liberando i milletrecento sistemi solari dal dominio di Winston Duarte. Ma l’antico nemico che ha ucciso i costruttori di anelli è sveglio e la guerra contro il nostro universo è ricominciata. Nel sistema morto di Adro, Elvi Okoye conduce una disperata missione scientifica per capire cos’erano i costruttori di anelli e cosa li ha distrutti, anche a costo di compromettere sé stessa e i bambini semialieni che sopportano il peso della sua indagine. Attraverso gli ampi sistemi dell’umanità, il colonnello Aliana Tanaka dà la caccia alla figlia scomparsa di Duarte e allo stesso imperatore sconfitto. E sulla Rocinante, James Holden e il suo equipaggio lottano per costruire un futuro per l’umanità dai frammenti e dalle rovine di tutto ciò che è accaduto prima. Mentre forze quasi inimmaginabili si preparano ad annientare tutta la vita umana, Holden e un gruppo di improbabili alleati scoprono un’ultima, disperata possibilità di unire tutta l’umanità, con la promessa, in caso di vittoria, di una vasta civiltà galattica libera da guerre, fazioni, bugie e segreti. Ma il prezzo della vittoria potrebbe essere peggiore del costo della sconfitta.

James Greensmith In The Mind Of Stalin

On 1 October 1939, Winston Churchill, First Lord of the Admiralty and soon to be the UK's wartime leader, described Russia as a riddle wrapped in a mystery inside an enigma'. The same can certainly be said of Stalin. How can this paradox of a man, who on the one hand had once exhibited great tenderness and kindness to his daughter Svetlana, and on the other sent millions - including members of his own family - to their deaths, be explained?\n\nIt is impossible to quantify the total number of deaths attributable to the policies of Stalin, but the Excess Mortality' (i.e., deaths over and above what would normally have been expected during the period in question) gives an approximate figure in excess of 40 million.\n\nHowever, this is only part of the story of the amount of misery inflicted by the Stalin regime through torture, deliberate starvation, neglect, separation from loved ones, cold and hypothermia (e.g. in the prisons of Siberia), which is unquantifiable and unimaginable.\n\nSvetlana confessed that she would never undertake to explain what motivated all my father's actions, simply because I do not possess the psychological genius of [Russian novelist] Dostoevsky, who knew how to penetrate into another man's soul and examine it from within '.

'A notable account of an epic human experience' Max Hastings, Sunday Times\n\n'Hitler knows that he will have to break us in this island or lose the war' Sir Winston Churchill, speech to the House of Commons, 18 June 1940\n\nThe Nazi Blitzkrieg was unlike any invasion the world had ever seen. It hit Europe with a force and aggression that no-one could counter. Within weeks the German armies were at the French coast and looking across at Britain. It seemed impossible that she would be able to resist invasion.\n\nBetween the Nazis and glory stood an apparently fragile defence, but the men and women of Fighter, Bomber and Coastal Commands and the Royal Navy would not be cowed. Their heroics that summer would go down in history.\n\nIn The Battle of Britain for the first time, James Holland tells this most epic of stories from a 360 Degrees perspective - when the fate of the world truly hung by a thread.

James Stejskal No Moon As Witness: Missions Of The Soe And Oss In World War Ii

Brand: James Stejskal
EAN:
9781612009520Categoria: Libri e riviste
Winston Churchill famously instructed the head of the Special Operations Executive to \"Set Europe ablaze!\" Agents of both the British Special Operations Executive and the American Office of Strategic Services underwent rigorous training before making their way, undetected, into Occupied Europe. Working alone or in small cells, often cooperating with local resistance groups, agents undertook missions behind enemy lines involving sabotage, subversion, organizing resistance groups and intelligence-gathering.\n\nThe SOE's notable successes included the destruction of a power station in France, the assassination of Himmler's deputy Reinhard Heyrich, and ending the Nazi atomic bomb program by destroying the heavy water plant at Vemork, Norway. OSS operatives established anti-Nazi resistance groups across Europe, and managed to smuggle operatives into Nazi Germany, including running one of the war's most important spies, German diplomat Fritz Kolbe.\n\nAll of their missions were incredibly dangerous and many agents were captured, tortured, and ultimately killed - the life expectancy of an SOE wireless operator in occupied France was just six weeks.\n\nIn No Moon as Witness, historian James Stejskal examines why these agencies were established, the training regimen and ingenious tools developed to enable agents to undertake their missions, their operational successes, and their legacy.

It is January 1941, and the Blitz is devastating England. Food supplies are low and tube stations have become bomb shelters. As the U.S. maintains its sceptical isolationist position, Winston Churchill knows that Britain is doomed without the aid of its powerful ally. As bombs rain down over London a weary Harry Hopkins, President Roosevelt's most trusted advisor, is sent to London as his emissary and comes face to face with the Prime Minister himself and an attractive and determined young female driver who may not be what she seems. In Sleep in Peace Tonight, a tale of loyalty, love, and the sacrifices made in the name of each, James MacManus conjures to life not only Blitz-era London and the behind the scenes at the White House, but also the poignant lives of personalities that shaped the course of history during Britain's darkest hour.

Spedizione: 2.7 EUR
Brand: Lyndsy Spence
EAN:
9780750970518Categoria: Libri e riviste
Before Diana Mitford's disgrace as a social pariah, she was a celebrated member of the Bright Young Things, moving at the centre of 1920s and '30s London high society. She was a muse to many: Helleu painted her, James Lees-Milne worshipped her, Evelyn Waugh dedicated a book to her and Winston Churchill nicknamed her 'Dina-mite'. As the young wife of Bryan Guinness, heir to the Guinness brewing empire, she lived a gilded life until fascist leader Sir Oswald Mosley turned her head. Unpublished letters, diaries and archives bring an unknown Diana to life, creating a portrait of a beautiful woman whose charm and personality enthralled all who met her, but the discourse of her life would ultimately act as a cautionary tale. This groundbreaking biography reveals the woman behind the myth.
