Oostfront
De Tweede Wereldoorlog in kleur - Rusland 1941Oostfront 1941 – 1943, de tweede wereldoorlog in kleur - Geselecteerd en ingeleid door Anthony Tucker-Jones Dit bijzondere boek biedt ruim 250 authentieke kleurenfoto’s uit de Tweede Wereldoorlog. Deze bieden een zeldzaam, vaak verrassend inzicht in de realiteit van de oorlog. Tijdens de oorlogsjaren waren voor Duitsland zogenaamde Kriegsberichter van de Propaganda Kompanie (PK) actief. Deze journalisten en fotografen trokken met het leger mee op en deden verslag van de overwinningen van het Duitse leger. Er werd al gebruik gemaakt van kleurenfotografie. Documentalist Anthony Tucker-Jones selecteerde een grote hoeveelheid foto’s van de PK die werden gemaakt aan het Oostfront in Rusland. Hij kon daartoe putten uit het Pixpast Archief met meer dan 32.000 authentieke kleurenfoto’s. Het is de grootste collectie ter wereld. Thematisch geordend begint het boek met beelden van invasie van de Sovjet Unie (Operatie Barbarossa): infanterie, tanks, voertuigen, wapens aan Duitse en Russische zijde. Vervolgens komt de luchtoorlog aan bod met foto’s van vliegtuigen en hun bemanningen op de grond en in de in de lucht. En tenslotte volgen beelden van het dagelijks leven achter de linies van soldaten, burgers en krijgsgevangenen. Met de strijd tegen het Rode Leger en de partizanen komt ook een derde, uiterst geduchte, tegenstander in beeld: de afschuwelijke kou van de Russische winter. Oud-officier van de Britse Intelligence Service Anthony Tucker-Jones is gespecialiseerd in militaire geschiedenis. Hij heeft diverse boeken op zijn naam staan en verschijnt regelmatig in de media om zijn visie te geven op actuele en historische militaire onderwerpen.

Rhineland
A dramatic retelling of the desperate battle of the Rhineland during World War II from the German perspective.The Rhineland was where Adolf Hitler sowed the seeds for the Second World War when he remilitarized it in breach of the Treaty of Versailles in 1936, and by late 1944 the Rhine provided the last major obstacle to the advancing Allied armies that were threatening the Fatherland itself.In this new history of this vital campaign, respected military historian Anthony Tucker-Jones describes the race against time as the Germans fought to stave off the inevitable. It was essential that the Germans held the west bank in order to protect the Rhine crossings at Cologne, Bonn, Koblenz and Remagen, but Hitler was intent on counter-attacking in the Ardennes in the winter of 1944 and this meant there was little left to bolster the defences of the Rhine.Rhineland relates the course of this desperate defence, describing the build-up of forces and operational plans before going on to tell the story of the campaign from the point of view of the forces involved, from the ordinary German soldier through to the high command.

La caduta di Berlino. Gli ultimi giorni di un regime infernale
Aprile 1945: l'ultima grande offensiva della Seconda guerra mondiale ha inizio. Berlino è circondata, i sovietici entrano nella capitale del Terzo Reich. Quelli che seguono saranno combattimenti feroci, con Hitler e i suoi seguaci che cercheranno fino alla fine di rimandare l'inevitabile. Saccheggi, distruzioni, esecuzioni: la città si trasforma in un incubo, ma i nazisti sono disposti a resistere fino all'ultimo uomo, fino all'ultima pallottola. In questa appassionante ricostruzione storica, Anthony Tucker-Jones ci porta fra i tre milioni di civili berlinesi, tra i carrarmati russi e nel bunker dove Hitler si suicidò con Eva Braun e i suoi fedelissimi. Un libro essenziale per comprendere ciò che veramente accadde in quei fatidici giorni che determinarono la caduta del Reich, la fine della guerra e l'inizio di un nuovo mondo.

L' Ordine nero del Reich
'Un piccolo gruppo composto dai migliori e più determinati è decisamente più prezioso di un gregge di seguaci': così nacquero nel 1933 le Waffen-SS (letteralmente "SS combattenti"), il braccio armato di Hitler. Volute dal Führer come sua squadra di protezione personale, in pochi anni si moltiplicarono fino a raggiungere le trentotto divisioni temute per la loro tenacia e spietatezza e tristemente note per le atrocità commesse durante la Seconda guerra mondiale. In questo libro il ruolo giocato dalle armate più famose - Das Reich, Totenkopf, Leibstandarte SS Adolf Hitler - e dai loro comandanti - uomini come Dietrich e Hausser - è visto nel contesto più ampio della guerra e della sconfitta del Terzo Reich. Lo storico militare Anthony Tucker-Jones fornisce una ricostruzione avvincente e molto dettagliata della parabola di queste formazioni militari, passando attraverso le principali battaglie sul fronte orientale e in Normandia per arrivare ai combattimenti in difesa della Germania, quando l'esercito regolare tedesco era ormai in ritirata.
