On Wellington

On Wellington

A Critique of Waterloo

by Carl von Clausewitz

Edited and translated by Peter Hofschroer

The Battle of Waterloo has been studied and dissected so extensively that one might assume little more on the subject could be discovered. Now historian Peter Hofschröer brings forward a long-repressed commentary written by Carl von Clausewitz, the author of On War. Hofschröer, long recognized as a leading scholar of the Napoleonic Wars, shows how the Duke prevented the account’s publication during his lifetime—a manipulation of history so successful that almost two centuries passed before Clausewitz’s work reemerged, finally permitting a reappraisal of key events in the campaign.

Moroni and the Swastika

Moroni and the Swastika

Mormons in Nazi Germany

by David Conley Nelson

A page-turning historical narrative, this book is the first full account of how Mormons avoided Nazi persecution through skilled collaboration with Hitler’s regime, and then eschewed postwar shame by constructing an alternative history of wartime suffering and resistance.

Hitler’s Ostkrieg and the Indian Wars

Hitler's Ostkrieg and the Indian Wars

Comparing Genocide and Conquest

by Edward B. Westermann

Comparative history at its best, Westermann’s assessment of these two national projects provides crucial insights into not only their rhetoric and pronouncements but also the application of policy and ideology “on the ground.” His sophisticated and nuanced revelations of the similarities and dissimilarities between these two cases will inform further study of genocide, as well as our understanding of the Nazi conquest of the East and the American conquest of the West.

Blücher

Blücher

Scourge of Napoleon

by Michael V. Leggiere

One of the most colorful characters in the Napoleonic pantheon, Gebhard Leberecht von Blücher (1742–1819) is best known as the Prussian general who, along with the Duke of Wellington, defeated Napoleon at the Battle of Waterloo. Throughout his long career, Blücher distinguished himself as a bold commander, but his actions at times appeared erratic and reckless. This magnificent biography by Michael V. Leggiere, an award-winning historian of the Napoleonic Wars, is the first scholarly book in English to explore Blücher’s life and military career—and his impact on Napoleon.

Masquerade

Masquerade

Treason, the Holocaust, and an Irish Impostor

by Mark M. Hull and Vera Moynes

In documenting James’s life of deception, Hull and Moynes masterfully analyze how an intellectually gifted child turned traitor to her country and convincingly rebranded herself as an Irish patriot and intellectual, while denying historical reality.

A Polish Doctor in the Nazi Camps

My Mother's Memories of Imprisonment, Immigration, and a Life Remade

by Barbara Rylko-Bauer

A Polish Doctor in the Nazi Camps chronicles Jadzia’s life from her childhood through her medical training as a pediatrician, her wartime experiences during the occupation of the Polish city of Lodz, and her struggles to survive as a political prisoner in Jewish slave labor camps  and a forty-two day death march.

A Generous and Merciful Enemy

A Generous and Merciful Enemy

Life for German Prisoners of War during the American Revolution

by Daniel Krebs

Adding new dimensions to an important but often neglected topic in military history, Krebs probes the origins of the modern treatment of POWs. An epilogue describes an almost-forgotten 1785 treaty between the United States and Prussia, the first in western legal history to regulate the treatment of prisoners of war.

World War II Reinterpreted

by R.H.S. Stolfi

How close did Germany come to winning World War II?  Did Hitler throw away victory in Europe after his troops had crushed the Soviet field armies defending Moscow by August 1941? R.H.S. Stolfi...
