Martin W. Bowman - De Havilland Mosquito
Crowood Press | 1997 | ISBN: 186126075X | 194 pages | PDF | 127.34 MB
De Havilland's Mosquito was conceived in 1938 as a high speed unarmed bomber, built mainly from wood. Its adaptability saw it as a night fighter, bomber photoreconnaissance aeroplane, high speed courier aircraft, target marker and anti-shipping strike aircraft. This is the story of the Mosquito's design and development, its operational use, with both the RAF and USAAF, and of its production in the United Kingdom, Canada and Australia. Appendices list the many variants, production totals and nightfighter kills. This volume contains many rare and unpublished photographs.

Law and Life of Rome
ACLS History E-Book Project | 352 pages | 2001 | ISBN: 1597401277 | PDF | 18 mb
It would be pretty tough to argue that this isn't a great book. J.A. Crook provides a very through overview of Roman law and procedure from roughly 90 B.C.E. to 212 C.E. Under such rubrics as commerce, labor, and status, Crook explains in minute detail the workings of law as it related to society and social relations. Beware, this is specialized Roman history. A beginner could be in trouble if he is not aware of at least a basic outline of Roman history and society.....

Publisher: Cambridge University Press | ISBN: 0521829585 | edition 2004 | PDF | 332 pages | 35,8 mb
Long before Rwanda and Bosnia and the Holocaust, the first genocide of the twentieth century occurred in Turkish Armenia in 1915. The essays in this collection examine how Americans learned of this catastrophe and tried to help its victims. Knowledge and compassion, however, were not enough to stop the killings, and a terrible precedent was born in 1915. The Armenian genocide has haunted the U.S. and other Western countries throughout the twentieth century...
