Carnage and Culture
Author: Victor Davis Hanson
Publisher: Anchor
ISBN: 0307425185
Category : History
Languages : en
Pages : 546
Book Description
Examining nine landmark battles from ancient to modern times--from Salamis, where outnumbered Greeks devastated the slave army of Xerxes, to Cortes’s conquest of Mexico to the Tet offensive--Victor Davis Hanson explains why the armies of the West have been the most lethal and effective of any fighting forces in the world. Looking beyond popular explanations such as geography or superior technology, Hanson argues that it is in fact Western culture and values–the tradition of dissent, the value placed on inventiveness and adaptation, the concept of citizenship–which have consistently produced superior arms and soldiers. Offering riveting battle narratives and a balanced perspective that avoids simple triumphalism, Carnage and Culture demonstrates how armies cannot be separated from the cultures that produce them and explains why an army produced by a free culture will always have the advantage.

Pages : 891
Book Description
New York Times Bestseller “Not a conventional Trump-era book. It is less about the daily mayhem in the White House than about the unprecedented capitulation of a political party. This book will endure for helping us understand not what is happening but why it happened…. [An] indispensable work.”—Washington Post Politico Magazine’s chief political correspondent provides a rollicking insider’s look at the making of the modern Republican Party—how a decade of cultural upheaval, populist outrage, and ideological warfare made the GOP vulnerable to a hostile takeover from the unlikeliest of insurgents: Donald J. Trump. As George W. Bush left office with record-low approval ratings and Barack Obama led a Democratic takeover of Washington, Republicans faced a moment of reckoning: they had no vision, no generation of new leaders, and no energy in the party’s base. Yet Obama’s progressive agenda, coupled with the nation’s rapidly changing cultural identity, lit a fire under the right. Republicans regained power in Congress but spent that time fighting among themselves. With these struggles weakening the party’s defenses, and with more and more Americans losing faith in the political class, the stage was set for an outsider to crash the party. When Trump descended a gilded escalator to launch his campaign in the summer of 2015, the candidate had met the moment. Only by viewing Trump as the culmination of a decade-long civil war inside the GOP can we appreciate how he won the White House and consider the fundamental questions at the center of America’s current turmoil. Loaded with explosive original reporting and based on hundreds of exclusive interviews—including with key players such as President Trump, Paul Ryan, Ted Cruz, John Boehner, and Mitch McConnell—American Carnage takes us behind the scenes of this tumultuous period and establishes Tim Alberta as the premier chronicler of a political era.

Avoiding Armageddon
Author: Bruce Riedel
Publisher: Harper Collins
ISBN: 935029995X
Category : Political Science
Languages : en
Pages : 175
Book Description
The India-Pakistan-America relationship has never been a settled one. In Avoiding Armageddon, Bruce Riedel explains the challenge and the importance of successfully managing America's affairs with these two emerging powers and their toxic relationship. The fact that India and Pakistan will be among the most important countries in the twenty-first century makes this a pressing concern. Born from the British Raj, the two nations share a common heritage, but they are different in many important ways. India is already the world's largest democracy and will soon become the planet's most populous nation. Pakistan, soon to be the fifth most populous country, has a troubled history of military coups, dictators, and harboring terrorists such as Osama bin Laden. The long-time rivals are nuclear powers, with tested weapons. They have fought four wars with each other and have gone to the brink of war several times. Meanwhile, U.S. presidents since Franklin Roosevelt have been increasingly involved in the region's affairs. In the past two decades alone, the White House has intervened several times to prevent nuclear confrontation in the subcontinent. South Asia clearly is critical to American national security, and the volatile relationship between India and Pakistan is the crucial factor determining whether the region can ever be safe and stable. Full of riveting details of what went on behind the scenes, and based on extensive research and Riedel's role in advising four U.S. presidents on the region, Avoiding Armageddon reviews the history of American diplomacy in South Asia, the crises that have flared in recent years, and the prospects for future crisis. Riedel provides an in-depth look at the Mumbai terrorist attack in 2008, the worst terrorist outrage since 9/11, and he concludes with authoritative analysis on what the future is likely to hold for America and the South Asia puzzle as well as recommendations on how Washington should proceed.

Languages : en
Pages : 332
Book Description
Once upon a time, I fell for a man. Then I met the Beast. BROOKE He's huge. Dangerous. And angry. And I can never love him again. I left my hometown for a reason. Coming back was never part of the plan. But the job I came here to do is more important than my tortured past -- and everything I left behind to escape it. Now I'm a federal agent, working a case deeply rooted in the community, And his club is in the middle of an investigation I'm about to crack wide open. We almost happened when I was younger. I was vulnerable. Innocent. Until it all got taken away from me. Since then, I've learned how to protect myself. How to size up danger and neutralize the threat. But Beast is an alpha male who won't take no for an answer. And my heart isn't listening to my head. I don't want to fall for Beast again. I can't get hurt again. But the harder I fight this attraction, the harder it becomes to resist. BEAST She left me and took what was left of my damn heart with her. Seeing Brooke again is something I swore I'd never do. But when she shows back up in our hometown, I can't f*cking resist. I fell in love with her for a reason. And this time, she's not f*cking running away from me. But Brooke is putting things in danger. She's uncovering sh*t that's hidden for a reason. My club, Lords of Carnage MC, could explode if she keeps f*cking digging. My d*ck wants her but my mind is stubborn, forcing me to keep my distance. I knew she'd get under my skin again. I knew I wouldn't be able to resist after the first taste. I knew once my hands touched her f*cking skin I'd turn into the Beast she's so afraid of. Except I've never followed any man's rules. Not even my own. Brooke is my f*cking property. My responsiblity. My damn woman. And I will do any-f*cking-thing to keep her safe.
