The Tireless Engine
Author: Marc Clement
Publisher: BoD – Books on Demand
ISBN: 375971160X
Category : Transportation
Languages : en
Pages : 351
Book Description
The Second World War – an unparalleled catastrophe. With millions of victims, destruction and immeasurable suffering. But without this catastrophe, the ‘light freight locomotive’ of the Deutsche Reichsbahn would probably never have achieved the importance it has today. It would probably never have become the most built steam locomotive in the world. With probably the most modern production logistics of that time and with the help of forced labour, more than 10,000 units were built. After the war they became a decisive factor in the reconstruction of Europe. More than 80 years later traces could be found in at least 25 countries and on three continents. Find out more about the history of this locomotive, which had a major impact on the railways of the continent.

Pride and Power
Author: Johan Franzen
Publisher: Oxford University Press
ISBN: 1787385337
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 580
Book Description
The story of Iraq is one of resistance. In this groundbreaking study, Johan Franzen offers a contextual modern history of the country, its creation and its struggle for sovereignty. Iraq's contemporary history is a tale of a diverse people thrown together into a nation-state by imperialist statecraft. From the state's inception as a League of Nations mandate in the 1920s, through wars, coups and revolutions, Iraqis have always resisted foreign domination. But the country, propelled by the quest for power, intense national pride and a zeal for sovereignty, was catapulted along a trajectory of violence. On one side stood imperialism, seeking to control Iraq for its own ends. Facing it, Iraqis of varying nationalist groups tried to rid the country of foreign meddling and steer a course of self-determination. Pride and Power offers in-depth analysis of the most important events, decisions and processes that led Iraq down this path. Based on extensive research of primary sources, both Iraqi and Western, the book unravels the complexity of Iraq's political history. It is essential reading for anyone interested in the international relations of the Middle East or in understanding the rich history of Iraq, from its foundation to the present.

The World of the Huns
Author: Otto J. Maenchen-Helfen
Publisher: Univ of California Press
ISBN: 0520357205
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 634
Book Description
An extensive study of the origins and culture of the mysterious Huns and the civilizations affected by their invasions. The first part of the book deals with the political history of the Huns, however, they are not a narrative. The second part of the book consists of monographs on the economy, society, warfare, art, and religion of the Huns. What distinguishes these studies from previous treatments is the extensive use of archaeological material. This title is part of UC Press's Voices Revived program, which commemorates University of California Press’s mission to seek out and cultivate the brightest minds and give them voice, reach, and impact. Drawing on a backlist dating to 1893, Voices Revived makes high-quality, peer-reviewed scholarship accessible once again using print-on-demand technology. This title was originally published in 1973.
