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,[293],{"id":294,"slug":295,"name":296},"01kjz5gcph7kb7g8ry3acfae4f","john-keegan-llsa","John Keegan",[298,299,300,301],{"id":27,"name":28,"slug":29,"is_fiction":18},{"id":35,"name":36,"slug":37,"is_fiction":17},{"id":176,"name":177,"slug":178,"is_fiction":17},{"id":236,"name":237,"slug":238,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":137,"complexity":7,"audience":140,"mood":304,"themes":306,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[142,245,305],"thought-provoking",[],{"id":308,"slug":309,"title":310,"description":311,"primary_cover_url":312,"cover_blurhash":313,"first_publish_year":314,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":163,"authors":315,"genres":324,"series":336,"enrichment":342},"01kx6p56d8b73dffxw3qwdng0x","dawn-bmjc","Dawn","Dawn is the second book in Elie Wiesel's Night trilogy, and his first work of fiction.

Wiesel uses that night to explore what violence does to a person who has already survived the camps, and whether taking a life in the name of a cause can ever be separated from the taking of life itself.\n\nUnlike Night, which is autobiographical, Dawn is a work of fiction, though it draws directly on Wiesel's own experience and post-war questioning of faith, guilt, and moral responsibility.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6p56f3qtv8y9eermgzdymc.jpg?v=73457f24e1","L3L|+5=rE2~U00aLWX$$00=_IVs:",1961,[316,320],{"id":317,"slug":318,"name":319},"01kjqvakvkxfvdfbm2vpev0e2j","elie-wiesel-1bqi","Elie Wiesel",{"id":321,"slug":322,"name":323},"01kx6p56dmz90n72nnwskr6at7","frances-frenaye-gyrv","Frances Frenaye",[325,326,330,331,335],{"id":27,"name":28,"slug":29,"is_fiction":18},{"id":327,"name":328,"slug":329,"is_fiction":18},15,"Drama","drama",{"id":35,"name":36,"slug":37,"is_fiction":17},{"id":332,"name":333,"slug":334,"is_fiction":18},9,"Literary Fiction","literary-fiction",{"id":272,"name":273,"slug":274,"is_fiction":18},[337],{"id":338,"slug":339,"name":340,"position":341,"is_main_entry":18,"parent_id":7,"parent_slug":7,"parent_name":7},"01kq3vsa7egyratxg6gebzxy3c","the-night-trilogy-vy3x","The Night Trilogy","2.00",{"pace":137,"complexity":7,"audience":140,"mood":343,"themes":344,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[191,246,245,190,305],[],{"id":346,"slug":347,"title":348,"description":349,"primary_cover_url":350,"cover_blurhash":351,"first_publish_year":352,"community_rating_avg":353,"community_rating_count":257,"page_count":354,"authors":355,"genres":360,"series":370,"enrichment":371},"01kx2dmmw9gjja89wbhja1x1fc","five-quarters-of-the-orange-oaq8","Five quarters of the orange","Framboise Dartigen returns to her childhood home in Les Laveurs, a small village on the Loire, under an assumed name.

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 final chapter is truly shocking. - Publisher.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Fworks\u002F01\u002F01kx6p3syda9a0h8t0kkhmmvwd.jpg?v=8f329cfa99","LFExFexZ9as:=ZoLI;of~WoLS~oz",2018,"3.00",[388,392],{"id":389,"slug":390,"name":391},"01kp2h4qfvxnkzspzxcry2fe5e","bill-oreilly-szue","Bill O'Reilly",{"id":393,"slug":394,"name":395},"01kjthgcjf6cpetvr4tb4t60bh","martin-dugard-8gwx","Martin Dugard",[397,398,399],{"id":176,"name":177,"slug":178,"is_fiction":17},{"id":27,"name":28,"slug":29,"is_fiction":18},{"id":35,"name":36,"slug":37,"is_fiction":17},[],{"pace":188,"complexity":7,"audience":140,"mood":402,"themes":403,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[191,190],[],{"id":405,"slug":406,"title":407,"description":7,"primary_cover_url":408,"cover_blurhash":409,"first_publish_year":410,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":411,"authors":412,"genres":417,"series":424,"enrichment":425},"01kwzqz6vw1erdtyw6rmd8v6q8","warriors-of-god-3sej","Warriors of God","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kwzqz6wd1z6tt9tq4m8nex61.jpg?v=0c95491c6f","L8NAVHnL4TMy00IU?w9G00o$oeMw",2002,448,[413],{"id":414,"slug":415,"name":416},"01kwzqz6w8axj0nr0nmdpe8pp8","james-jr-reston-xrri","James Jr Reston",[418,419,423],{"id":35,"name":36,"slug":37,"is_fiction":17},{"id":420,"name":421,"slug":422,"is_fiction":18},56,"Medieval","medieval",{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":188,"complexity":7,"audience":140,"mood":426,"themes":427,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[143,190],[],{"id":429,"slug":430,"title":431,"description":432,"primary_cover_url":433,"cover_blurhash":434,"first_publish_year":162,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":411,"authors":435,"genres":440,"series":453,"enrichment":454},"01kx6nw816rybrtd9hgpa0mt5c","to-end-all-wars-aobn","To End All Wars","To End All Wars tells the story of the First World War in Britain through the people who fought it and the people who refused to.

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,[602],{"id":603,"slug":604,"name":605},"01kx6nz5zwf7gzakjh7byz8vvg","margaret-olwen-macmillan-kiyd","Margaret Olwen Macmillan",[607,608,609,610],{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":18},{"id":236,"name":237,"slug":238,"is_fiction":18},{"id":35,"name":36,"slug":37,"is_fiction":17},{"id":176,"name":177,"slug":178,"is_fiction":17},[],{"pace":137,"complexity":7,"audience":140,"mood":613,"themes":614,"setting_period":7,"summary":615,"content_warnings":7},[142,305],[],"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.

It proposed a wartime alliance: if the United States entered the war against Germany, Mexico should join Germany and Japan against America, with Germany's help in reclaiming Texas, New Mexico, and Arizona.\n\nBarbara Tuchman traces how Britain's codebreakers deciphered the message, and the delicate problem of how to hand it to Washington without revealing that Germany's codes had been broken. She sets the telegram against the wider background of the German high command's decision to resume unrestricted submarine warfare, Woodrow Wilson's strained neutrality, and the unstable state of U.S.-Mexico relations during the Mexican Revolution.\n\nWhen the telegram's contents reached the American press in early 1917, public opinion shifted decisively, and Congress moved toward a declaration of war against Germany within weeks. Tuchman's account follows the intelligence operation from interception to publication and its role in bringing the United States into the First World War.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kx6pbejgpwp8ce20fs9je553.jpg?v=b672611afb","LZ9viaQ=j=bY*DkAV[kAM#pEjIj[",1979,243,[660],{"id":661,"slug":662,"name":663},"01kjt6zfmb7a5hd7c3jjzgqvb3","barbara-tuchman-6fib","Barbara Tuchman",[665,666,667,668],{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":18},{"id":236,"name":237,"slug":238,"is_fiction":18},{"id":35,"name":36,"slug":37,"is_fiction":17},{"id":176,"name":177,"slug":178,"is_fiction":17},[],{"pace":137,"complexity":7,"audience":140,"mood":671,"themes":673,"setting_period":7,"summary":674,"content_warnings":7},[142,190,672],"intellectual",[],"A history of the intercepted 1917 telegram in which Germany proposed a military alliance with Mexico against the United States — and how its exposure helped draw America into World War I.",{"id":676,"slug":677,"title":678,"description":7,"primary_cover_url":679,"cover_blurhash":680,"first_publish_year":681,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":682,"authors":683,"genres":704,"series":713,"enrichment":714},"01kqtymrsw98m486dq7jbty6sa","the-life-of-general-francis-marion-a-celebrated-partisan-officer-in-the-revolutionary-war-against-the-british-and-tories-in-south-carolina-and-georgia-8zh4","The Life of General Francis Marion, a Celebrated Partisan Officer, in the Revolutionary War, Against the British and Tories in South Carolina and Georgia","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01kqtymrvz2tyq1vchdykhps82.jpg","L6QvK+ko~4?ZxUR*bFa}-VadIVWB",1852,270,[684,688,692,696,700],{"id":685,"slug":686,"name":687},"01kqtymrvm52vw258avfp4gbw3","mason-locke-weems-ldft","Mason Locke Weems",{"id":689,"slug":690,"name":691},"01kqtymrvtdzefgaad84skzk2k","william-dobein-james-9ilh","William Dobein James",{"id":693,"slug":694,"name":695},"01kqcd0333gbamrz91d462s7zt","william-gilmore-simms-uyvp","William Gilmore Simms",{"id":697,"slug":698,"name":699},"01kjqz7qnz164emwg9yaq1c6qc","william-cullen-bryant-re8w","William Cullen Bryant",{"id":701,"slug":702,"name":703},"01kqtymrvwnhf37zjhfret8wv9","peter-horry-gkcs","Peter Horry",[705,706,707,711,712],{"id":443,"name":444,"slug":445,"is_fiction":17},{"id":35,"name":36,"slug":37,"is_fiction":17},{"id":708,"name":709,"slug":710,"is_fiction":17},69,"Biography & Memoir","biography-memoir",{"id":176,"name":177,"slug":178,"is_fiction":17},{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":137,"complexity":7,"audience":140,"mood":715,"themes":716,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[549,142],[],{"id":718,"slug":719,"title":720,"description":721,"primary_cover_url":722,"cover_blurhash":723,"first_publish_year":724,"community_rating_avg":7,"community_rating_count":13,"page_count":725,"authors":726,"genres":731,"series":734,"enrichment":739},"01kx6nwhwmkz17y1wp98jyws59","the-battle-of-kursk-bp1d","The Battle of Kursk","\"Immense in scope, ferocious in nature, and epic in consequence, the Battle of Kursk witnessed (at Prokhorovka) one of the largest tank engagements in world history and led to staggering losses - including nearly 200,000 Soviet and 50,000 German casualties - within the first ten days of fighting.

At its center are three unforgettable figures: the awkward, searching Pierre Bezukhov, heir to an unexpected fortune; the disillusioned Prince Andrei Bolkonsky, seeking meaning in war and love; and the vivid, impulsive young Natasha Rostova.\n\nAround their courtships, marriages, betrayals, and spiritual crises, Tolstoy stages the great public events of the age, from the salons of Saint Petersburg to the catastrophe of the 1812 French invasion and the burning of Moscow. He moves constantly between the intimate and the immense, insisting that history is made not by great men but by the countless small actions of ordinary people.\n\nWar and Peace is one of the towering achievements of world literature, part novel, part philosophy of history. Vast in scope yet minutely observed, it is a meditation on love, death, freedom, and the search for how to live.","https:\u002F\u002Fapi.seekquel.app\u002Fstorage\u002Fcovers\u002Feditions\u002F01\u002F01ktssswk930dxdpm3dqxzj1q9.jpg?v=c88a80f365","LZOoCWjG.6bFzXj[Szj[~BbaIpo2",1869,2,801,[757,761],{"id":758,"slug":759,"name":760},"01kjq87dgwh3ysd3kqmnf8x24p","lev-tolstoi-xaax","Лев Толстой",{"id":762,"slug":763,"name":764},"01kk4vxd2wwx0d6nrwdp1tt89k","louise-maude-tzw2","Louise Maude",[766,767,768,772],{"id":332,"name":333,"slug":334,"is_fiction":18},{"id":272,"name":273,"slug":274,"is_fiction":18},{"id":769,"name":770,"slug":771,"is_fiction":18},58,"Classics","classics",{"id":31,"name":32,"slug":33,"is_fiction":18},[],{"pace":372,"complexity":7,"audience":140,"mood":775,"themes":776,"setting_period":7,"summary":7,"content_warnings":7},[374,245],[],{"id":778,"slug":779,"title":780,"description":781,"primary_cover_url":782,"cover_blurhash":783,"first_publish_year":255,"community_rating_avg":784,"community_rating_count":257,"page_count":785,"authors":786,"genres":795,"series":809,"enrichment":810},"01kjr37ar04n3ev8epzkd6tsj4","make-your-bed-qsda","Make Your Bed","Admiral William H.
