Описание:

In 1940, the strategically vital island of Malta was Britain's last toehold in the central Mediterranean, wreaking havoc among Axis shipping. Launching an air campaign to knock Malta out of the war, first Italy and then Germany sought to force a surrender or reduce the defenses enough to allow an invasion.

Drawing on original documents, multilingual aviation analyst Ryan Noppen explains how technical and tactical problems caused the original Italian air campaign of 1940-41 to fail, and then how the German intervention came close to knocking Malta out of the war. Using stunning full color artwork, this fascinating book explains why the attempt by the Axis powers to take the British colony of Malta ultimately failed.

Описание: Tells the story of the US Navy`s surface fleet in World War II with an emphasis on ship-to-ship combat. It advances the thesis that the fleet`s role in America`s ultimate victory was more crucial than commonly realized and that it holds many lessons for today`s navy and the US as a whole.

Описание: Although the Axis alliance during the Second World War was a set of political relationships just as much as the victorious alliance of the United Nations, it is rarely seen in these terms. Martin Folly's book rectifies this omission. He traces how the members of the alliance pursued their objectives by political as well as military means, addresses not only the diplomacy of relations between Germany, Japan and their allies, but also their attempts to gain benefits from relations with states not involved in the war - including, up until 1941, the United States and the Soviet Union. He also demonstrates the ways which they sought to exploit international politics- such as the inherent differences between the 'Big Three' of Britain, the US and the USSR - first to achieve their expansionist goals, then, as defeat closed in on them, to salvage something from the wreckage by renewed diplomatic initiatives. New Order Diplomacy sheds light on a missing element of the history of the Second World War. By incorporating the story of Axis diplomacy into the narrative of the war, Folly allows for a deepened understanding of the nuanced relationships between the German, Japanese and Italian regimes, their minor allies and with neutral states. This original study will prove a vital contribution to the study of the Second World War and 20th-century international relations.

Описание: After Pearl Harbor, German, Italian and Japanese diplomats, along with their staffs and families, were relocated to two lavish but isolated resorts in Appalachia, where the State Department insisted they be treated as distinguished guests. As the war progressed, other Axis envoys were similarly detained. (The Japanese ambassador to Germany was captured by U.S. soldiers in Europe and held in a small hotel in rural Pennsylvania, while the War Department argued for treating him as a war criminal and the local population decried his luxurious accommodations.)Informants were recruited, attempts at espionage and escape were foiled, diplomats complained and squabbled endlessly, babies were born and townspeople made threats, while newspapers published outlandish exposes of wild parties.Based on government documents, the recollections of detainees and hotel staff and contemporary newspaper accounts, this book is the first to focus on the day-to-day lives of the nearly 1,000 detainees during their six-month confinement.
