Revolutionary Suicide - Huey P. Newton - Bog - Penguin Putnam Inc - Plusbog.dk

Revolutionary Suicide - Huey P. Newton - Bog - Penguin Putnam Inc - Plusbog.dk

Eloquently tracing the birth of a revolutionary, Huey P. Newton''s famous and oft-quoted autobiography is as much a manifesto as a portrait of the inner circle of America''s Black Panther Party. From Newton''s impoverished childhood to his adolescence and struggles with the system, from his role in the Black Panthers to his solitary confinement in the Alameda County Jail, Revolutionary Suicide is smart, unrepentant and thought-provoking in its portrayal of inspired radicalism.

The Panzer Killers - Daniel P. Bolger - Bog - Penguin Putnam Inc - Plusbog.dk

Two months after D-Day, General George Patton needed an officer to break the impasse and he selected Maurice Rose. From Normandy to the West Wall, from the Battle of the Bulge to the final charge across Germany, Rose''s deadly division of tanks blasted through enemy lines with an intensity. He never spoke about his Jewish heritage but that ferocity betrayed a personal intensity. In The Panzer Killers, Daniel P. Bolger, a retired lieutenant general and Iraq War veteran, offers up a lively, dramatic tale of Rose''s heroism that could only come from an author who has commanded tanks in combat.

Secret Destiny of America - Manly P. (manly P. Hall) Hall - Bog - Penguin Putnam Inc - Plusbog.dk

Drawing upon often neglected fragments of history, THE SECRET DESTINY OF AMERICA presents evidence for a mysterious Great Plan at the core of the nation''s founding. Pre-eminent occult scholar, Manly P. Hall, argues that humanistic, esoteric and mystical orders collaborated in setting aside the American continent for a world-shaking experiment in enlightened self-government and religious liberty.The author locates the seeds for this plan one thousand years before the beginning of the Christian era, exploring figures such as the Pharaoh Akhnaton, Plato and Plotinus. Once hatched in the colonial age, the great experiment involved:·Christopher Columbus, who may have been an agent of esoteric order connected with Lorenzo de'' Medici and Leonardo da Vinci;·English intellectuals Bacon and Raleigh, who played unique roles in the court intrigue surrounding the settlement of the American continent;·Founders Washington and Franklin, who had esoteric associations;·And a network of Rosicrucians, mystics and Freemasons whose ideals of religious freedom travelled to American soilWhether discussing the symbolism of the Great Seal of the United States, the prophecy at George Washington''s birth or the role of a mysterious stranger who swayed the signers of the Declaration of Independence, THE SECRET DESTINY OF AMERICA is the sole volume to link together the fascinating strands of esoteric history that lie at America''s heart.

War At The End Of The World - James P. Duffy - Bog - Penguin Putnam Inc - Plusbog.dk

War At The End Of The World - James P. Duffy - Bog - Penguin Putnam Inc - Plusbog.dk

One American soldier called it ''a green hell on earth.'' Monsoon-soaked wilderness, debilitating heat, impassable mountains, torrential rivers, and disease-infested swamps - New Guinea was a battleground far more deadly than the most fanatical of enemy troops. Japanese forces numbering some 600,000 men began landing in January 1942, determined to seize the island as a cornerstone of the Empire''s strategy to knock Australia out of the war. Allied Commander-in-Chief General Douglas MacArthur committed 340,000 Americans, as well as tens of thousands of Australian, Dutch, and New Guinea troops, to retake New Guinea at all costs. What followed was a four-year campaign that involved some of the most horrific warfare in history. At first emboldened by easy victories throughout the Pacific, the Japanese soon encountered in New Guinea a roadblock akin to the Germans'' disastrous attempt to take Moscow, a catastrophic setback to their war machine. For the Americans, victory in New Guinea was the first essential step in the long march towards the Japanese home islands and the ultimate destruction of Hirohito''s empire. In this gripping narrative, historian James P. Duffy chronicles the most ruthless combat of the Pacific War, a fight complicated by rampant tropical disease, violent rainstorms, and unforgiving terrain that punished both Axis and Allied forces alike. Drawing on primary sources, War at the End of the World fills in a crucial gap in the history of World War II while offering readers a narrative of the first rank.

Lila Macapagal''s godmothers April, Mae, and June-AKA the Calendar Crew-are celebrating the opening of their latest joint business venture, a new laundromat, to much fanfare (and controversy). However, what should''ve been a joyous occasion quickly turns into a tragedy when they discover the building has been vandalised-and the body of Ninang April''s niece, recently arrived from the Philippines, next to a chilling message painted on the floor. The question is, was the message aimed at the victim or Lila''s gossipy godmothers, who have not-so-squeaky-clean reputations? With Ninang April falling apart from grief and little progress from the Shady Palms Police Department in this slippery case, it''s up to Lila and her network to find justice for the young woman. The Calendar Crew have stuck their noses into everybody''s business for years, but now the tables are turned as Lila must pry into the Calendar Crew''s lives to figure out who has a vendetta against the (extremely opinionated yet loving) aunties and stop them before they strike again.

Wings of War - David Fairbank White - Bog - Penguin Putnam Inc - Plusbog.dk

When the P-51 Mustang began tearing across European skies in early 1944, the Allies had been losing the air war for years. Staggering numbers of bomber crews, both British and American, had been shot down and killed thanks to the Luftwaffe''s superior fighter force. Not only did the air war appear grim, but any landing of troops in France was impossible while German fighters hunted overhead. But behind the scenes, a team of visionaries had begun to design a bold new type of airplane, one that could outrun and outmaneuver Germany''s best. Wings of War is the incredible true story of the P-51 Mustang fighter and the unlikely crew of designers, engineers, test pilots and army officers who brought it from the drafting table to the skies over World War II. This is hardly a straightforward tale of building an airplane - for years, the team was stymied by corruption within the defense industry and stonewalled by the Army Air Forces, who failed to understand the Mustang''s potential. But when squadrons of Mustangs were finally unleashed over Hitler''s empire, the Luftwaffe was decimated within months, clearing the skies for D-Day. A compelling, character-focused narrative replete with innovation, determination and bravery, Wings of War is the never-before-told story of the airplane that truly changed the course of World War II.

Chuck Yeager - Don Keith - Bog - Penguin Putnam Inc - Plusbog.dk

Bold, brash, and brimming with courage, Chuck Yeager burst onto the scene as a national hero in 1947, when he became the first to fly an airplane faster than the speed of sound. Yet even before his days as America''s most famous test pilot, Yeager was a young fighter ace in the US Army Air Force, flying a P-51 Mustang over Nazi-occupied Europe. His exploits are the stuff of legend. Soon after downing his first enemy fighter, Yeager, too, was shot down, surviving thanks to the help of the French Resistance and his own skills as a bomb maker - and earned a Bronze Star for saving the life of a fellow American. Against regulation, and only with the approval of General Eisenhower himself, Yeager returned to duty as a fighter pilot. While fiercely protecting Allied bombers, he shot down eleven enemy planes, including a lightning-fast Messerschmitt Me 262, the world''s first jet-powered airplane, and completed more than sixty missions. In CHUCK YEAGER, acclaimed author Don Keith tells the true story of the American icon during the war in which Yeager first proved he had the right stuff.
