The History of the Galician Division of the Waffen SS
The second volume of the definitive history of the 14th Waffen-Grenadier Division der SS (Ukrainische Nr 1). The lavishly illustrated concluding volume of the division's history features chapters on its reformation, deployment against Communist-backed partisans in Slovakia, the forced march to Slovenia, anti-partisan action against Tito's partisans in Slovenia and its committal for the final time on the Eastern Front against the Red Army in Austria. It concludes with an investigation into the Division's escape from repatriation a subject which has long been the subject of contention amongst historians. This volume also deals with internment and ends with its unique post war fate including ne...
Parleying with the Devil
The Second World War in Yugoslavia is notorious for the brutal struggle between the armed forces of the Third Reich and the communist-led Partisans. Less known is the fact that the two sides negotiated prisoner exchanges throughout the war. Under extraordinary circumstances, these early communications evolved into a formal exchange agreement centered on the creation of a neutral zone—quite possibly the only such area in occupied Europe—where prisoners were regularly exchanged until late April 1945, saving thousands of lives.

Novi Slovenski biografski leksikon
V drugem zvezku (osebnosti s priimki na črke B–Bla) Novega Slovenskega biografskega leksikona v 257 geslih nadaljujemo s predstavitvijo najvidnejših slovenskih in s Slovenijo povezanih osebnosti iz vseh obdobij naše zgodovine. Glavna odlika leksikona je izčrpen in sorazmerno obsežen opis življenja in dela osebe. Poleg podrobnih stvarnih podatkov o rojstvu, šolanju in zaposlitvah, značilnih za leksikone, je pogosto predstavljeno tudi kulturnozgodovinsko ozadje posameznikovega dela in delovanja. Ker so avtorji gesel praviloma tudi strokovnjaki s področij, na katerih so delovale ali še delujejo predstavljene osebnosti, je vsebinska predstavitev še posebej temeljita in posodobljena z novimi spoznanji. Tiskano izdajo dopolnjuje spletni portal Slovenska biografija (www.slovenska-biografija.si ; urednica Petra Vide Ogrin, Biblioteka SAZU), v katerem je trenutno okoli 6000 gesel.
