Описание: The great powers of medieval Europe fought continuously in the Italian peninsula between the 12th and 14th centuries as they sought to expand their territory. Invading armies from Germany - the Holy Roman Empire - saw the creation of the defensive Lombard League of northern Italian city-states. These struggles resulted in conflicts between rival confederacies, which in turn proved to be the catalysts for developments in organisation and tactics.

Italian urban militias became better organised and equipped, the Imperial armies went from being mostly German to multi-national forces, and both sides became reliant on mercenary forces to prosecute their wars. After the 1260s, France, relying mainly on armoured cavalry, and Spain, with their innovative light infantry, vied for control of southern Italy. On the seas, the great naval powers of Genoa, Pisa and Venice became fierce rivals, as they created great trading empires, bringing the treasures of the east into feudal Europe.

Using detailed colour plates, this beautifully illustrated book describes the myriad of armies and navies that fought for control of Italy in the Middle Ages.

Описание: The First Carlist War broke out after the death of King Ferdinand VII, the king restored at the end of the Peninsular War thanks to Wellington's victory. The crown was claimed by both his daughter Isabella, backed by the Liberal party and his brother Don Carlos, at the head of northern ultra-conservatives centred in the Basque provinces and Navarre. The Liberals or 'Cristinos' were supported by a 10,000-strong British Legion of volunteers led by a former aide to Wellington as well as the British Royal Navy, a Portuguese division, and the French Foreign Legion.

With both armies still using Napoleonic weapons and tactics, early victories were won by the Basque general Zumalacarregui. After his death in 1835 a see-saw series of campaigns followed, fought by conventional armies of horse, foot and guns, supported by many irregulars and guerrillas. This little known multi-national campaign provides a fascinating postscript to the Peninsular War of 1808-14, and its uniforms present a colourful and varied spectacle.

Описание:

In the 1840s, post-Napoleonic Italy was 'a geographical expression'--not a country, but a patchwork of states. The north (Savoy/Piedmont, and Venice ) was ruled by Austria-Hungary, and most of the minor central states were more or less clients of Austria. From Naples, a Spanish-descended Bourbon monarchy ruled the south--'the Two Sicilies.' The European 'Year of Revolutions', 1848, saw popular uprisings against the regimes all over the peninsula. These were eventually crushed (First War of Independence, 1848-49); but they left King Victor Emmanuel of Savoy/Piedmont--and his able minister Cavour--determined to liberate and unify the country, while royal authority in the Two Sicilies was left deeply unpopular.

Savoy/Piedmont endeavored to strengthen the relationship with France and Britain, by sending troops to fight alongside them in the Crimean War, 1854-56 and, as a result, it was actively supported by a French army in the Second War of Independence (1859), when the battles of Magenta and Solferino freed most of the north from Austrian rule. In the south, Garibaldi's 'Redshirts' led a successful rising against the Kingdom of the Two Sicilies (1860). Eventually the south voted to join the north in a unified kingdom (February 1861); nevertheless, northern troops had to enforce this by a ruthless occupation during the 1860s--a little-known campaign.

Описание:

Have you ever encountered someone so beautiful and found yourself filled with unexplainable hatred or a dire need to tear them down?

Perhaps the more important question should be why is it when we are faced with such profound beauty are we filled with such ugliness?

The answer to that question is not unknown to us, it is merely not spoken aloud.

When we allow our perception of beauty to be solely dictated by what is found on the outside, we begin to use that as a guide on how to stay beautiful and how we come to recognize it in others. This need to maintain our beautiful fa ade eventually overcomes us thereby opening us up to life's greatest danger; internal ugliness.

We don't notice it at first, seeing how common such petty jealousies have become in our society; however, the seed has already been planted and whether or not we choose to realize it, the ugliness inside us is growing.

Well, I have an idea...Let's be brave and do what most fear about all else...

Let go of our pride by embracing humility and admitting we are imperfect and flawed.

Let us break free from the boxes which society has deemed fitting for us and have unknowingly confined ourselves to. I'll tell you one thing, that box gets pretty dark after a while. Stay in there long enough and it will begin to seem impossible to find your way out.

I assure you, it's not impossible. I did it and I can tell you how. I will make you no promises, save one; the scrapes on your knees and broken fingernails you may acquire from clawing your way out of the darkness will pay you no mind once you feel the sun on your face and are reminded how friggen beautiful it is...Too friggen beautiful for any box.
