Как Киевская Русь разделилась на Великую, Малую и Белую? Долгие десятилетия эту тему предпочитали не обсуждать, как и многие вопросы русской истории. Например, что наряду с Московской Русью существовала и Литовская Русь...

Edward Butts, "The Desperate Ones: Forgotten Canadian Outlaws".
Publisher: Dundurn Press | english | ISBN: 1550026100 | edition: 2006 | PDF | 240 Pages | 12 Mb

Donald E. Graves, "Red Coats & Grey Jackets: The Battle of Chippawa, 5 July 1814".
Publisher: Dundurn Press | english | ISBN: 1550022105 | edition: 1996 | PDF | 216 Pages | 13 Mb
Mr.Graves does an excellent job descirbing an obscure, yet compelling battle of the War of 1812. Winfield Scott professionally trained and lead his famed brigade at Chippewa where he managed to get the better of the British in a brief, but hard fought firer-fight. The book correctly dispels many of the myths associated with this battle. Contrary to popular opinion, the British did not attack in column, as many histories of the war have asserted. The British were a linear army, they generally deployed and fought in a two rank line. This is how they fought and defeated Napeolean in Spain. It would have been illogical of them to have fought any other way at this battle.

Publisher: University of Oklahoma Press | english | ISBN: 080613688X | edition: 2005 | PDF | 226 Pages | 19 Mb
My own ancestery is represented in this book (Jack Harry I) as he is called by our family. The uncle of our Great Grandfather Jack Harry II. I am from Anadarko, OK and this finally explains many of the stories and locations we all heard about as a kid, from Shirley Hill to the Tonkawa hills masssacre sites, and the understanding of how some of our people have the name Chisolm. The narrow tightrope of turmoil the tribes walked to wind up in Binger / Anadarko / Apache and Lawton is made visible and helps greatly to understand stories that we heard as kids.

Randall White, "Ontario 1610-1985 (Ontario Heritage Foundation Local History Series, No 1)".
Publisher: Dundurn Press | english | ISBN: 0919670989 | edition: 1996 | PDF | 352 Pages | 17 Mb
If Ontario is the land that is ours to discover then surely Randall White has written a book of discovery.

J.M.S. Careless, "Careless at Work: Selected Canadian historical studies".
Publisher: Dundurn Press | english | ISBN: 1550020676 | edition: 1996 | PDF | 360 Pages | 18 Mb
This sampling of the work of J.M.S. Careless in the area of Canadian historical studies was selected by the eminent scholar himself, and represents much of his finest work. The collection spans the years from 1940 to 1990 in the long and distinguished career of one of Canada's best-known historians. In Careless's own words, History is dated. Its very claim is that the past does not fade into nothing but continues to matter, whether or not the purely present-minded are able to recognize that basic fact.

Timothy C. Brown, "The Real Contra War: Highlander Peasant Resistance in Nicaragua".
Publisher: University of Oklahoma Press | english | ISBN: 0806132523 | edition: 2001 | PDF | 321 Pages | 18 Mb
The Contra War and the Iran-Contra affair that shook the Reagan presidency were center stage on the U.S. political scene for nearly a decade. According to most observers, the main Contra army, or the Fuerza Democratica Nicaraguense (FDN), was a mercenary force hired by the CIA to oppose the Sandinista socialist revolution.The Real Contra War demonstrates that in reality the vast majority of the FDN's combatants were peasants who had the full support of a mass popular movement consisting of the tough, independent inhabitants of Nicaragua's central highlands. The movement was merely the most recent instance of this peasantry's one-thousand-year history of resistance to those they saw as would-be conquerors.

Scott L. Cameron, "Frances Smith: Palace Steamer of the Upper Great Lakes 1867-1896".
Publisher: Natural Heritage Books | english | ISBN: 1897045042 | edition: 2006 | PDF | 288 Pages | 18 Mb
The Frances Smith was not only the first steamboat to be built in Owen Sound, but also the largest vessel on Georgian Bay at that time. By far the most luxurious vessel to sail the Upper Great Lakes from a Canadian port, she was known as a 'palace steamer'. In the mid-to-late-19th century, the Frances Smith set the standard for speed, spacious accommodation and quality service on Georgian Bay and Lake Superior. The story of the Frances Smith, full of adventure and courageous actions, and even including disreputable behaviour, is a genuine story of life on the Great Lakes in the latter part of the 1800s.

Людовик XIII отбирал их среди самых храбрых и проверенных воинов; при Людовике XIV один вид голубых плащей с серебряными крестами наводил ужас на врага. На протяжении двух столетий роты королевских мушкетеров были гордостью французских королей и одним из национальных символов Франции.

Повседневная жизнь этрусков
2009 | Жак Эргон | Молодая гвардия | ISBN: 978 5235032514 | руcский | PDF | 336 pages | 18.8 Mb
Этруски - один из самых загадочных народов древности, чья высокоразвитая цивилизация процветала в Италии в VIII-III веках до н.э. Происхождение этрусков до сих пор неясно, их письменность не расшифрована, но ученым известно многое о их истории, религии и обычаях. Впитав многое из наследия греческой культуры, они в свою очередь оказали большое влияние на становление Древнего Рима, подчинившего впоследствии этрусские города-государства.
