Описание: The Falklands Conflict was remarkable for many reasons: it was a hard fought, bloody and short conflict between a leading NATO power and one of the most capable armed forces in South America; it demonstrated the capabilities of a range of cutting-edge technologies including nuclear-powered attack submarines, Exocet missiles and Sea Harrier VSTOL aircraft; and it was fought many thousands of miles away from the Royal Navy's home bases. In this illustrated study, renowned naval historian Dr Edward Hampshire draws upon the latest available sources to offer a comprehensive examination of the Falklands naval campaign. Blow-by-blow accounts of key engagements, such as the sinking of the General Belgrano, the loss of HMS Sheffield, and the landings at San Carlos Bay, are presented alongside lesser known but equally important naval operations that helped shape the outcome of the conflict.

Описание: From a bizarre French and Indian War battle to the state's first impeachment trial, It Happened in New Hampshire looks at intriguing people and episodes from the history of the Granite State. -Relive the humorous, not-so-adventurous "camping" trip by a group of America's most famous industrial titans in 1919, whose necessities included a personal chef and an electric generator. -Find out how one woman's kind act toward a young Native American years later spared her and her children from certain death during a ruthless revenge attack on settlers in a Dover garrison. -Learn how concern to protect the White Mountains from environmental degradation contributed to the establishment of national forests across the United States. -Discover how a fearless force of thirty soldiers refused surrender and sucessfully held off an army of 700 French militia and Indian allies at a remote outpost. -Read about how two colonial governors--who, coincidentally, were close relatives--shocked their citizens with nearly equally scandalous, completely unexpected marriages.
During the forty year period 1790-1829 Dover's first newspaper published some 2,000 issues, which contain the births, marriages, and deaths of more than 7,500 people. Originally called the Political and Sentimental Repository but sporting many other names in later years, the paper served an area much wider than simply the Dover vicinity; hence within its pages will be found vital records from all over New England.
The generations immediately after the Revolutionary War are difficult ones for genealogical research, in New Hampshire as well as elsewhere - here you have four of the most difficult decades in exquisite detail. Mr. Wentworth located every copy of the newspaper still extant, over 1,600 of the two thousand issues which were published, and has abstracted all of them with meticulous care.
This paperback reprint has been made from a scan of the original 1995 edition, with the aim of making this previously out-of-print title available to genealogists
Автор: Robert Grandchamp Название: Colonel Edward E. Cross, New Hampshire Fighting Fifth: A Civil War Biography ISBN: 0786471913 ISBN-13(EAN): 9780786471911 Издательство: Mare Nostrum (Eurospan) Рейтинг: Цена: 44350.00 T Наличие на складе: Есть у поставщика Поставка под заказ. Описание: Edward Ephraim Cross (1832-1863) accomplished more in his short lifetime years than most men who live to be 100. By the eve of the Civil War, he had traveled from Cincinnati to Arizona working as a political reporter, travel writer, editor, trail hand, silver mine supervisor, and Indian fighter. In the summer of 1861, he became colonel of the Fighting Fifth New Hampshire Volunteers and gained fame as a fearless battlefield commander during action at Fair Oaks, Antietam, Fredricksburg, and Chancellorsville before being mortally wounded at Gettysburg. However, behind this great soldier lay a flawed man, an alcoholic with a short temper who fought a constant battle with words against immigrants, abolitionists, and others with whom he disagreed. This detailed biography presents a full portrait of this controversial and little-known figure, filling a critical gap in the literature of the northern Civil War experience.
From the first "commando carriers" to the legendary Fearless class and the current generation, this title explores the capabilities, roles, and history of the Royal Navy's frontline amphibious assault ships.
Amphibious assault ships have been at the center of nearly all of Britain's expeditionary campaigns since World War II, from the Suez crisis of 1956 to operations as far afield as Borneo (1963-66), the Falklands (1982), Sierra Leone (2000) and Iraq (2003).
In major operations such as Suez and the Falklands, the use of amphibious assault ships was essential to the military success of the campaigns. The Suez Crisis saw two of the Royal Navy's former light fleet carriers converted into "commando carriers" to specialize in amphibious warfare. In the 1960s these were followed by the famous Fearless class ships - the first purpose-built amphibious assault ships in the Royal Navy. With an internal dock, headquarters capability, and multiple landing craft, these "Landing Platform Docks" were built to project power around the world. When the Falklands were invaded, HMS Fearless was the key to the successful landing in San Carlos.
In the 1990s, a new generation was ordered: the helicopter carrier HMS Ocean and the Albion class LPDs. In recent years Ocean, Albion and Bulwark have been the largest fighting ships of the Royal Navy and have acted as the navy's flagships, as well as being perhaps the most versatile ships in the navy.
This title is an essential guide to British Amphibious Assault Ships across the decades, from the mighty Fearlessto the modern Albion. Packed with full-color illustrations, contemporary photography, and detailed analysis, this definitive work explores the history, development, and deployment of the Royal Navy's front line.

The one hundred and fiftieth anniversary of the capture of Louisburg was celebrated on June 17, 1895 at Louisburg, Cape Breton and the government of New Hampshire authorized the printing of a report of the event written by its representative, George C. Gilmore, Special Commissioner. This report included the names of the soldiers and sailors from New Hampshire who served at the capture of Louisburg and all of the historical facts connected to the event. This book is the result of the "Joint Resolution to Authorize the Governor and Council to Appoint a Person or Persons to Represent the State of New Hampshire at the Proposed Celebration at Louisburg" which was passed March 28, 1895. Gilmore's task was especially challenging as the original muster rolls were sent to England and not returned. His report states that: "The number of men from New Hampshire in the expedition when it sailed for Louisburg was 502. Recruits, 120 at least, and probably more. Have found the names of 496 men, leaving 126 unaccounted for. The residences of the men, as given, are the writer's."
