Alexandra
L'Empire russe, le plus vaste du monde. Bouleversé par les soubresauts de l'Histoire, objet de toutes les ambitions. Après une succession de règnes qui se termine tragiquement, l'accession au pouvoir se pose à nouveau. En cette fin de siècle, la Russie est devenue la nation la plus puissante du monde - et la plus corrompue. Des politiciens peu scrupuleux veulent s'emparer du gouvernement. La mafia est un Etat dans l'Etat. Mais c'est une femme qui va diriger ce pays en proie au chaos : la tsarine Alexandra. Une tsarine de 17 ans, belle, pure, inflexible et audacieuse, véritable incarnation de l'âme slave. Jacqueline Dauxois et Vladimir Volkoff, le plus russe de nos grands romanciers, nous font rêver à ce qu'aurait pu devenir cette Russie du Xxe siècle si la révolution d'Octobre n'avait pas eu lieu. Alexandra est une fresque pleine de bruits et de fureur, digne de ces grandes épopées qui, de Guerre et Paix au Docteur Jivago, ont nourri l'imaginaire des nostalgiques des fastes de la Sainte Russie, celle d'Alexandre Nevski et d'Ivan le Terrible.
The Celestial Hundred
This book is a requiem. It is a tribute to those participants in the Revolution of Dignity who gave their hearts' blood so that Ukraine and all of us Ukrainians could raise from our knees. So that we could start to change our country, and our posterity could have a chance to live in a new Ukraine. The characters of this book are ordinary people from all over this country who come from all walks of life—migrant workers, scientific researchers, private entrepreneurs, school teachers... If it hadn't been for the Maidan, they wouldn't have met each other. It is the Maidan that united them and turned them into brothers-inarms and warriors of light. This book was written to ensure that the memory of the great act of self-sacrifice of the heroes of the Celestial Hundred never dies and lives forever in the hearts of Ukrainians. This book is the silent reminder to us all about the price that was paid for our freedom and for a chance for our Motherland to become a truly European country.
By the Emperor's Hand
As absolute as Hitler's control over the German war machine was, it depended on the ability, judgment and unquestioning loyalty of the senior officers charged with putting his ideas, however difficult, into effect.Top military historian James Lucas examines the stories of fourteen of these men: all of different rank, from varied backgrounds, and highly awarded, they exemplify German military prowess at its most dangerous. Among his subjects are Eduard Dietl, the commander of German forces in Norway and Eastern Europe; Werner Kampf, one of the most successful Panzer commanders of the war; and Kurt Meyer, commander of the Hitler Youth Division and one of Germany's youngest general officers.The author, one of the leading experts on all aspects of German military conduct of the Second World War, offers the reader a rare look into the nature of the German Army a curious mix of individual strength, petty officialdom and pragmatic action.
