Описание: This is a book about a man and his ability to change a culture and to create a powerful navy that was radically different than traditional navies. And he accomplished this despite strong opposition from the nation's Army-dominated power structure. The Russian Navy that is at sea in the 21st Century is to a significant degree based on the fleet that this man built. This Russian Navy that sent a nuclear-propelled battle cruiser into the Caribbean in 2008 supported the Soviet combat actions in Syria beginning in 2015 and fired missiles from surface ships and a submarine into "rebel" areas in Syria can trace its "roots" directly to Admiral of the Fleet of the Soviet Union Sergei G. Gorshkov.

It is commonly believed that the submarine was first used in battle during the Civil War. However, America's best-kept secret during the Revolutionary War was bobbing above the surface in New York Harbor the night of September 6, 1776.

However, America's best-kept secret during the Revolutionary War was bobbing above the surface in New York Harbor the night of September 6, 1776. The craft was a dream of "Yankee tinkerer" David Bushnell, a recent Yale graduate in his mid-thirties who had studied math and science. He built the world's first submarine in a shed behind his house.
Although there were no engines, electric motors, or steam engines at the time of the American Revolution, Bushnell responded to a desperate situation. Britain's navy, the most impressive in the world, was trying to capture New York Harbor and the colonists had virtually no sea power at all. The resulting Turtle, named for its appearance, moved at three miles an hour, held only thirty minutes of air while underwater, and was complicated to operate. This inventive genius can be ranked with the likes Benjamin Franklin, Eli Whitney, and Robert Fulton.

Автор: Alexander Werth Название: Leningrad 1943: Inside a City Under Siege ISBN: 1350138096 ISBN-13(EAN): 9781350138094 Издательство: Bloomsbury Academic Рейтинг: Цена: 7380.00 T Наличие на складе: Нет в наличии. Описание: The Siege of Leningrad is the most powerful testimony to the immeasurable cruelty and horror of World War II. From 1941-1945, the Eastern Front was the site of some of the bloodiest atrocities of the war and the city of Leningrad, now St. Petersburg, proved to be a decisive point in the conflict. German policy was resolutely determined to redraw the map of Europe, annihilate the Soviet Union and give large areas of territory to Finland. Through Hitler's ambition to completely eradicate the city and its entire population, it was decided that the most efficient method of invasion was to encircle and bombard the city into submission. After 872 days of aggression, one and a half million people lost their lives, mostly from starvation. As the sole British correspondent to have been in Leningrad during the blockade, Alexander Werth's eyewitness account presents a harrowing perspective on the savagery and destruction wrought by the Nazis against the civilian population of the city.His writing evokes compelling images of terror - the oil bombing of children's hospitals, mass starvation and cannibalism - with rich and sophisticated commentary on the internal politics of Soviet party chiefs, soldiers and civilian resistance fighters. Both an authoritative historical document and a journalistic re-telling of the overwhelming sadness, grief and futility of 20th century warfare, this is an invaluable look at one of the greatest losses of human life in recorded history.
