Summary of George Bruce's Six Battles for India
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 The British Empire was rising, and the forward policy ruled in India. General Sir Hugh Gough gave a ball at the military outpost of Ambala, northern India, on the night of the tenth of December, 1845. The music, the ritual, and the pleasure of such gatherings inevitably awoke memories of England. #2 The British went to war with the Sikhs, five thousand miles from their homeland. They were led by good officers, and they believed themselves invincible. They knew that ex-officers of Napoleon’s Grand Army and American Colonel Alexander Gardner had trained the Sikh army to be a match for the British.
Summary of George Bruce's The Warsaw Uprising
Please note: This is a companion version & not the original book. Sample Book Insights: #1 On September 1, 1939, Hitler invaded Poland with fifty-eight divisions, fourteen of which were armored or motorized. Poland put into the field only thirty divisions, mostly cavalry and infantry, with just one motorized brigade. #2 The Polish General Staff, led by Romer, had unrealistic strategic ideas stemming from a foreign policy that had seen Soviet Russia as the real enemy and Germany as a possible ally. These ideas led to the country’s defeat. #3 The Defense of Warsaw Committee was set up to defend Warsaw, and in four days, while the Nazis pounded the city with bombs and shells, they were able to recruit thousands of citizen soldiers. But the city surrendered on 1 October when it was almost without food or water. #4 The country was totally destroyed by the Nazis. The Nazi terror regime began. Through the battle-scarred city, German soldiers in fine uniforms goose-stepped in long columns. The Polish people were prostrate.
