Everyone was "In the Mood for Love," when Frances Langford, renowned Big Band singer with a rich contralto voice, rose from performing at hometown parties in Mulberry, Florida to Broadway, Old Time Radio, and movies during Hollywood's Golden Era. Her signature song carried her from turntables to troops in World War Two, and then into the stuff of legends.
From the airwaves on Louella Parson's Hollywood Hotel, Rudy Vall e's The Fleischmann's Yeast Hour, and Dick Powell's Campana Serenade (1942-1943), Frances achieved nationwide fame as Don Ameche's insufferable wife, Blanche, on The Bickersons (1946-1951).
Her beauty eclipsed her broadcasts, when the movies plucked her from speakers to screens. Her film debut in Every Night at Eight(1935) led to Broadway Melody of 1936 (1935), in which she popularized "Broadway Rhythm" and "You Are My Lucky Star," Born to Dance (1936), and Yankee Doodle Dandy (1942) with James Cagney, in which she sang the rousing "Over There."
For the first time, her personal interviews with author/publisher Ben Ohmart bring the treasured memories from her past to light. Return with her to the front lines from 1941 into the 1980s with Bob Hope and Jerry Colonna on U.S.O. tours through Europe, North Africa, and the South Pacific, entertaining thousands of G.I.s throughout the world.
Frances Langford. More than a voice. More than the G.I.s' choice.
Illustrated with hundreds of never-before-seen photos from the Frances Langford Collection in Lakeland, Florida.

Описание: Long Night of the Tankers presents a fresh account of a lesser-known but critical component of the Atlantic naval theatre during World War II. Using war diaries, after-action reports, and first-hand accounts, authors Bercuson and Herwig examine the story behind Operation Neuland, the German plan to interrupt vital oil supplies from reaching the United States and the United Kingdom by preventing Allied oil tankers from leaving refineries in the Caribbean. The story begins in February 1942 and follows this German attempt to scuttle the Allied war machine through to the end of the war. Told largely from the German perspective, it details the planning and execution of the Germans and the diplomatic, political, and military responses of the Allies, particularly the United States, to overcome the German effort.

Автор: Alan F. Crouchman Название: B-26 "Flak-Bait ": The Only American Aircraft to Survive 200 Bombing Missions during the Second World War ISBN: 0764363433 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780764363436 Издательство: Gazelle Book Services Рейтинг: Цена: 58610.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Battling flak and enemy fighters over the skies of Europe during World War II, the US Army Air Force Martin B-26 Marauder bomber named Flak-Bait completed a remarkable 201 combat missions, a feat that made it the highest mission scorer of any Allied medium or heavy bomber. For many years the author has held a special interest in the B-26, and especially those of the 387th Bomb Group. It was during his first visit to the National Air & Space Museum in Washington, DC, over 20 years ago, where Flak-Baits nose section was on display, that he became interested in what the aircraft had achieved during her illustrious career. Using official World War IIera records, the result is a day-by-day account of the missions it flew, crew lists, flight routes, and weapons dropped, and records any comments made by the various crews during their postmission debriefing. A special photo section features the current restoration display of Flak-Bait at the Steven F. Udvar-Hazy Center in Washington, DC. Correcting previously held perceptions about the aircraft and its missions, this is the most definitive account of any single World War II aircrafts combat career ever published.

Название: Death Throes of the Wehrmacht: The Final Destruction of Hitler`s Armed Forces ISBN: 1684511380 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781684511389 Издательство: Неизвестно Рейтинг: Цена: 27580.00 T Наличие на складе: Невозможна поставка. Описание: The endgame for Hitler's Reich Hitler's army had dared all to win all on the Western Front with its surprise winter campaign in the Ardennes, the "Battle of the Bulge." But when American and Allied forces recovered from their initial shock, the German Army, the Wehrmacht, was left fighting for its very survival--especially on the Eastern Front, where the Soviet Army was intent on matching, or even surpassing, Nazi atrocities. At the mercy of the Fuhrer--who refused to acknowledge reality and insisted on forbidding German retreats--the Wehrmacht was slowly annihilated in horrific battles that have rarely been adequately covered in histories of the Second World War, perhaps most especially the brutal Soviet siege of Budapest, which became known as "the Stalingrad of the Waffen-SS." Now, at last, veteran military historian Dr. Samuel Mitcham, in the capstone of a career covering of more than forty books--most of them on the German Armed Forces in World War II--tells the extraordinary tale of how Hitler's once-feared war machine came to a cataclysmic end, from the Battle of the Bulge in December 1944 to the German surrender in May 1945. Making use of German wartime papers and memoirs--some rarely seen in English-language sources--Mitcham's sweeping narrative makes Death Throes: The Demise of the Wehrmacht and the Fall of the Third Reich a book that needs to be on the shelf of every student of World War II history.
