Archbishop Charles Agar
Director of the Northern Ireland Public Record Office, Malcolmson argues that Agar's place in history has been distorted by the widespread contempt in which his contemporaries held him. The First Earl of Normanton and a scion in a family of wealthy landowners in Kilkenny and of bishops and other influential clerics, Agar began his ecclesiastical career in the Anglican Church in 1763, and rose to become Archbishop of Dublin in 1801.

8th SS Cavalry Division Florian Geyer
Covers the operations of a leading SS Calvary Regiment and describes fighting under desperate conditions on the Eastern Front. Formed in 1942 8th SS Cavalry Division Florian Geyer was soon deployed to the Eastern Front where Hitler’s ambition to conquer Russia was stalling badly. In common with other SS units the Division was responsible for razing towns and villages, poisoning wells and genocide often against unarmed civilians. This scorched earth policy was aimed at hindering the Red Army’s advance. After moving South, the Division took part in the retreat from the Dnieper River before operating in Hungary and Croatia. The end came when trapped in Budapest by Soviet and Romanian forces, the Division was destroyed in December 1944. By the end of the siege only 800 of the 30,000 men in the SS Corps reached German lines. Using many startling contemporary images, this latest book in the Author’s Images of War series vividly illustrates the horror of warfare on the Eastern Front.
