Once part of the larger republic of Yugoslavia, Slovenia is now an independent country with impressive Alpine scenery and charming Adriatic coastal towns. In addition to practical information on the country's accessible capital, Ljubljana, the Bradt guide explores off-the-beaten-track Slovenia including visits to wine-growing regions, hiking in the Julian Alps, white-water rafting and skiing. A strong emphasis on culture and history is combined with practical information on where to stay and eat, and how to get around.
Nic Fields draws on detailed knowledge of available sources and his own visits to the battlefield to set the battle within the context of its political situation and religious impact upon history. The Battle of the Frigidus River, fought on 5 and 6 September 394 in what is now Slovenia, was a crucial clash between the Eastern Roman emperor, Theodosius (later ‘the Great’), and the usurper Eugenius, who had seized power in the Western Empire. The battle was hard fought and lasted two days. At the end of the first, Theodosius was on the brink of defeat but the following day a great wind blowing against his enemy resulted in him securing a decisive victory. Eugenius, like Theodosius, was a C...
An exciting international espionage thriller, a continuation of the Rendman family exploits as Zelta joins forces with her brother, Joseph, and the CIA. They race through Cuba, Russia, Brazil and the United States in a perilous attempt to root out a deeply entrenched Soviet spy ring operating at the highest levels in the US, while avoiding Cuban Military Police and KGB assassins. Major American universities, the Naval Academy, even a member of the Joint Chiefs of Staff are complicit in a twisted web of intrigue, espionage and stolen secrets. Beginning with pure vengeance for the slaughter of complete Russian and Cuban guerrilla communities and culminating in a one day CIA clean sweep of the multi-state spy cell, climaxing in a Florida orange grove estate—a last ditch all-out effort by the KGB to kill the Rendmans. “A terrific sequel that, if you can believe it, packs more thrills than Code Name Rustler. The action comes on with a vengeance and doesn’t let up. Like its predecessor, Rustler’s Vengeance puts the reader smack in the middle of what was the Western hemisphere’s hottest flash point.” -Jonathan Scott, author of Lenegrin and The Woman in the Wilderness-

Monografija je posvečena manjšim rimskim naseljem, ki ležijo na območju današnje Slovenije, kamor so segale tri velike upravne enote rimske države: Italija ter provinci Norik in Zgornja Panonija. V samostojnih poglavjih je zgoščeno in po skupnem konceptu predstavljenih dvajset naselij različnega tipa in stopnje raziskanosti.
