Jünger was wounded fourteen times over the course of the war.

A conflict of unprecedented ferocity, it abruptly ended the relative peace and prosperity of the Victorian era, unleashing such demons of the twentieth century as mechanized warfare and mass death. It also helped to usher in the ideas that have shaped our times--modernism in the arts, new approaches to psychology and medicine, radical thoughts about economics and society--and in so doing shattered the faith in rationalism and liberalism that had prevailed in Europe since the Enlightenment. With The First World War, John Keegan, one of our most eminent military historians, fulfills a lifelong ambition to write the definitive account of the Great War for our generation. Probing the mystery of how a civilization at the height of its achievement could have propelled itself into such a ruinous conflict, Keegan takes us behind the scenes of the negotiations among Europe's crowned heads (all of them related to one another by blood) and ministers, and their doomed efforts to defuse the crisis. He reveals how, by an astonishing failure of diplomacy and communication, a bilateral dispute grew to engulf an entire continent. But the heart of Keegan's superb narrative is, of course, his analysis of the military conflict. With unequalled authority and insight, he recreates the nightmarish engagements whose names have become legend--Verdun, the Somme and Gallipoli among them--and sheds new light on the strategies and tactics employed, particularly the contributions of geography and technology. No less central to Keegan's account is the human aspect. He acquaints us with the thoughts of the intriguing personalities who oversaw the tragically unnecessary catastrophe--from heads of state like Russia's hapless tsar, Nicholas II, to renowned warmakers such as Haig, Hindenburg and Joffre. But Keegan reserves his most affecting personal sympathy for those whose individual efforts history has not recorded--\"the anonymous millions, indistinguishably drab, undifferentially deprived of any scrap of the glories that by tradition made the life of the man-at-arms tolerable.\" By the end of the war, three great empires--the Austro-Hungarian, the Russian and the Ottoman--had collapsed. But as Keegan shows, the devastation ex-tended over the entirety of Europe, and still profoundly informs the politics and culture of the continent today. His brilliant, panoramic account of this vast and terrible conflict is destined to take its place among the classics of world history.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kx6pa0fy2z5h4jewrhsmzd58.jpg?v=8fe3a6cc60","LxJa+TRjWCj@_Noef5fQRka}j[az",1998,475,[232],{"id":233,"slug":234,"name":235},"01kjz5gcph7kb7g8ry3acfae4f","john-keegan-llsa","John Keegan",[237,241,242,243],{"id":238,"name":239,"slug":240,"is_fiction":19},54,"World War II","world-war-ii",{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":20},{"id":35,"name":36,"slug":37,"is_fiction":20},{"id":208,"name":209,"slug":210,"is_fiction":19},[],{"pace":169,"complexity":7,"audience":171,"mood":246,"themes":248,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[174,218,247],"thought-provoking",[],{"id":250,"slug":251,"title":252,"description":253,"primary_cover_url":254,"cover_blurhash":255,"first_publish_year":256,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":17,"page_count":257,"authors":258,"genres":263,"series":270,"enrichment":271},"01kx6p7b45yn9xda66r5t2tpyk","chernobyl-012340-fdhe","Chernobyl 01:23:40","At 01:23:40 on April 26, 1986, an operator pressed the emergency shutdown button at Chernobyl's fourth reactor — the moment that triggered the world's worst nuclear disaster, forced the permanent evacuation of a city, and crippled the Soviet Union.\n\nDrawing on five years of research, Andrew Leatherbarrow gives an accessible, comprehensive account of what actually happened: the fight to stop a burning reactor core from irradiating eastern Europe, the men who worked in radiation fields so intense that machines failed, the truth behind the \"Chernobyl diver\" legend, and the USSR's eventual show trial.

It closes with an argument for how the United States should conduct foreign policy in a post-Cold War, multipolar world, weighing the tension between Wilsonian idealism and Realpolitik that Kissinger sees as the defining thread of American diplomatic history.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6p6zexnw7xm5kbgcpfmc6s.jpg?v=e81132fc79","LhN^6roftRs:~qafozj[4nayj@ay",1995,912,[342],{"id":343,"slug":344,"name":345},"01kk2sn5t5me7aqpwtv1p5yy8e","henry-kissinger-8mxr","Henry Kissinger",[347,348,349],{"id":325,"name":326,"slug":327,"is_fiction":20},{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":20},{"id":35,"name":36,"slug":37,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":294,"complexity":7,"audience":171,"mood":352,"themes":353,"setting_period":7,"summary":354,"content_warnings":7},[174,296,218,247],[],"A sweeping history of international diplomacy from the Peace of Westphalia to the end of the Cold War, written by former U.S. Secretary of State Henry Kissinger and drawing on his own experience shaping American foreign policy.",{"id":356,"slug":357,"title":358,"description":359,"primary_cover_url":360,"cover_blurhash":361,"first_publish_year":362,"community_rating_avg":13,"community_rating_count":14,"page_count":363,"authors":364,"genres":373,"series":377,"enrichment":378},"01kx6p3syda9a0h8t0kkhmmvwd","killing-the-ss-cnfv","Killing the SS","Confronting Nazi evil is the subject of the latest installment in the mega-bestselling Killing series. As the true horrors of the Third Reich began to be exposed immediately after World War II, the Nazi war criminals who committed genocide went on the run. A few were swiftly caught, including the notorious SS leader, Heinrich Himmler. Others, however, evaded capture through a sophisticated Nazi organization designed to hide them. Among those war criminals were Josef Mengele, the \"Angel of Death\" who performed hideous medical experiments at Auschwitz; Martin Bormann, Hitler's brutal personal secretary; Klaus Barbie, the cruel \"Butcher of Lyon\"; and perhaps the most awful Nazi of all: Adolf Eichmann. Killing the SS is the epic saga of the espionage and daring waged by self-styled \"Nazi hunters.\" This determined and disparate group included a French husband and wife team, an American lawyer who served in the army on D-Day, a German prosecutor who had signed an oath to the Nazi Party, Israeli Mossad agents, and a death camp survivor. Over decades, these men and women scoured the world, tracking down the SS fugitives and bringing them to justice, which often meant death. Written in the fast-paced style of the Killing series, Killing the SS will educate and stun the reader.

The century since the end of the Napoleonic wars had been the most peaceful era Europe had known since the fall of the Roman Empire. In the first years of the twentieth century, Europe believed it was marching to a golden, happy, and prosperous future. But instead, complex personalities and rivalries, colonialism and ethnic nationalisms, and shifting alliances helped to bring about the failure of the long peace and the outbreak of a war that transformed Europe and the world. The War That Ended Peace brings vividly to life the military leaders, politicians, diplomats, bankers, and the extended, interrelated family of crowned heads across Europe who failed to stop the descent into war: in Germany, the mercurial Kaiser Wilhelm II and the chief of the German general staff, Von Moltke the Younger; in Austria-Hungary, Emperor Franz Joseph, a man who tried, through sheer hard work, to stave off the coming chaos in his empire; in Russia, Tsar Nicholas II and his wife; in Britain, King Edward VII, Prime Minister Herbert Asquith, and British admiral Jacky Fisher, the fierce advocate of naval reform who entered into the arms race with Germany that pushed the continent toward confrontation on land and sea. There are the would-be peacemakers as well, among them prophets of the horrors of future wars whose warnings went unheeded: Alfred Nobel, who donated his fortune to the cause of international understanding, and Bertha von Suttner, a writer and activist who was the first woman awarded Nobel's new Peace Prize. Here too we meet the urbane and cosmopolitan Count Harry Kessler, who noticed many of the early signs that something was stirring in Europe; the young Winston Churchill, then First Lord of the Admiralty and a rising figure in British politics; Madame Caillaux, who shot a man who might have been a force for peace; and more. With indelible portraits, MacMillan shows how the fateful decisions of a few powerful people changed the course of history. MacMillan's central argument is that the outbreak of the First World War was not a foregone conclusion, but the outcome of specific choices and failures by Europe's leaders. - Publisher.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6nz609ka92ydt7r6ckbpr8.jpg?v=d1a50c8930","LFIhNr~qt7%2nlNH~WIVx]SN^kE1",2013,762,[420],{"id":421,"slug":422,"name":423},"01kx6nz5zwf7gzakjh7byz8vvg","margaret-olwen-macmillan-kiyd","Margaret Olwen Macmillan",[425,426,427,428],{"id":200,"name":201,"slug":202,"is_fiction":19},{"id":208,"name":209,"slug":210,"is_fiction":19},{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":20},{"id":35,"name":36,"slug":37,"is_fiction":20},[],{"pace":169,"complexity":7,"audience":171,"mood":431,"themes":432,"setting_period":7,"summary":433,"content_warnings":7},[174,247],[],"A narrative history of Europe from 1900 to the outbreak of World War I, tracing how the continent's longest era of peace since the Roman Empire collapsed into catastrophe.

Ferguson vividly brings back to life one of the seminal catastrophes of the century, not through a dry citation of chronological chapter and verse, but through a series of chapters that answer the key questions: Why did the war start? Why did it continue? And why did it stop? How did the Germans manage to kill more soldiers than they lost but still end up defeated in November 1918?

To test the theory, he murders a rapacious old pawnbroker. But the deed does not liberate him; instead it plunges him into a fever of guilt, paranoia, and self-loathing, hunted less by the police than by his own conscience.\n\nAs the shrewd investigator Porfiry Petrovich circles ever closer and the devout, long-suffering Sonya offers a path toward confession and redemption, Dostoevsky builds an unbearably intimate portrait of a mind at war with itself. A foundational work of psychological fiction, it remains a searching meditation on guilt, free will, suffering, and the possibility of moral rebirth.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kjq7sa63n7s9pw8c7r57xavv.jpg","LIM~Lmr@^PkWysS15kr=00wJq]s9",1866,"4.50",442,[596],{"id":597,"slug":598,"name":599},"01kjq7sa2qtzn21cnchnhn8yxm","fedor-mixailovic-dostoevskii-xtfh","Fyodor Dostoyevsky",[601,604,605,609,613,617],{"id":159,"name":602,"slug":603,"is_fiction":19},"Mystery","mystery",{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":20},{"id":606,"name":607,"slug":608,"is_fiction":19},9,"Literary Fiction","literary-fiction",{"id":610,"name":611,"slug":612,"is_fiction":19},44,"Crime","crime",{"id":614,"name":615,"slug":616,"is_fiction":19},58,"Classics","classics",{"id":618,"name":619,"slug":620,"is_fiction":19},41,"Psychological Thriller","psychological-thriller",[],{"pace":294,"complexity":7,"audience":171,"mood":623,"themes":624,"setting_period":7,"summary":627,"content_warnings":7},[216,173,247],[625,626],"morally-grey","unreliable-narrator","A destitute, brilliant former law student in St. Petersburg murders a pawnbroker to test his theory that extraordinary men are above the moral laws governing ordinary people — and is then consumed by paranoia as he tries to outmaneuver both the police and his own conscience.",{"id":629,"slug":630,"title":631,"description":632,"primary_cover_url":633,"cover_blurhash":634,"first_publish_year":635,"community_rating_avg":636,"community_rating_count":637,"page_count":638,"authors":639,"genres":644,"series":661,"enrichment":662},"01kmt06f86trc39q5hf43zkkr7","sonnenfinsternis-rrhp","El cero y el infinito","Nicholas Rubashov, a high-ranking official who helped build the current regime, finds himself arrested by the very secret police he once commanded.

Operating in Chicago's notorious Levee district at the dawn of the last century, the Club's proprietors, two aristocratic sisters named Minna and Ada Everleigh, welcomed moguls and actors, senators and athletes, foreign dignitaries and literary icons, into their stately double mansion, where thirty stunning Everleigh \"butterflies\" awaited their arrival. Courtesans named Doll, Suzy Poon Tang, and Brick Top devoured raw meat to the delight of Prince Henry of Prussia and recited poetry for Theodore Dreiser. Whereas lesser madams pocketed most of a harlot's earnings and kept a \"whipper\" on staff to mete out discipline, the Everleighs made sure their girls dined on gourmet food, were examined by an honest physician, and even tutored in the literature of Balzac.Not everyone appreciated the sisters' attempts to elevate the industry. Rival Levee madams hatched numerous schemes to ruin the Everleighs, including an attempt to frame them for the death of department store heir Marshall Field, Jr. But the sisters' most daunting foes were the Progressive Era reformers, who sent the entire country into a frenzy with lurid tales of \"white slavery\"--the allegedly rampant practice of kidnapping young girls and forcing them into brothels. This furor shaped America's sexual culture and had repercussions all the way to the White House, including the formation of the Federal Bureau of Investigation.With a cast of characters that includes Jack Johnson, John Barrymore, John D. Rockefeller, Jr., William Howard Taft, \"Hinky Dink\" Kenna, and Al Capone, Sin in the Second City is Karen Abbott's colorful, nuanced portrait of the iconic Everleigh sisters, their world-famous Club, and the perennial clash between our nation's hedonistic impulses and Puritanical roots. Culminating in a dramatic last stand between brothel keepers and crusading reformers, Sin in the Second City offers a vivid snapshot of America's journey from Victorian-era propriety to twentieth-century modernity.Visit www.sininthesecondcity.com to learn more!Praise for Sin in the Second City:\"Assiduously researched...

It was a grim scene that would, of course, be repeated endlessly throughout the war. Instead of running or giving in to despair, these brothers -- Tuvia, Zus, and Asael Bielski -- fought back, waging a guerrilla war of wits against the Nazis. By using their intimate knowledge of the dense forests surrounding the Belarusan towns of Novogrudek and Lida, the Bielskis evaded the Nazis and established a hidden base camp, then set about convincing other Jews to join their ranks.
