Soft cover. Condición: Fine. Fine condition color illustrated softcover wraps. Includes Introduction by Dee Brown; Bibliography and Index. Illustrated with maps and black-and-white photographs. First New Collier Books Edition 1993, (second printing). "A vivid, swiftly paced account of the dispossession of the Plains Indians during the half century after 1840." - The New York Times Book Review "To fully understand the America of today, one must know what happened to the Native Americans of the past. In The Long Death, [the author] tells the story with great sensitivity, forthrightness, and enlightened scholarship." - Dee Brown "Of the numerous sympathetic and deeply moving general accounts of U.S. treaty breaking, military conquest, and tribal dispossession, I favor Ralph K. Andrist, The Long Death." - From Black Hills/White Justice, Edward Lazarus "The Long Death was one of the first important books to look eastward at the invading hoardes of "civilization" and help an entire nation to better understand what had come before it. Epic in sweep, magnificent in detail - here is the tragedy of the Indians who once roamed and hunted on the Great Plains. Included in this great saga are the names one expects: Red Cloud of the Sioux, Black Kettle of the Cheyennes, Generals Sheridan, Sherman, and Custer, Colonel Miles, Crazy Horse, Sitting Bull, and Chief Joseph of the Nez Perces. But also included are the unsung heroes of the West, such as ferryman Hubert Millier ("Old Mauley"), whi died at his post, having saved most of the refugees fleeing the Minnesota Massacre; eleven-year-old Merton Eastlick, who carried his baby brother to safety through fifty miles of hostile wasteland; trader William Bent, who was married to a Cheyenne woman and half of whose children lived with the tribe; and many more. This compelling narrative explains with a journalist's eye how Native Americans found themselves time and again betrayed by the ever expanding white nation of the East, fighting for lands on the edge of the shrinking frontier. Long considered a classic, this edition features an new introduction by Dee Brown, author of Bury My Heart at Wounded Knee." - from the rear outer cover. Palacios, Rafael, D. (maps) (ilustrador).…

Four page, illustrated insert on the book and how it was written laid in. Dwight Eisenhower, during World War II, became a five-star general in the Army and served as Supreme Commander of the Allied Expeditionary Force in Europe. He was responsible for planning and supervising the invasion of North Africa in Operation Torch in 1942-43 and the successful invasion of Normandy in 1944-45 from the Western Front. After the war, he served as Army Chief of Staff (1945-1948), as president of Columbia University (1948-1953) and as the first Supreme Commander of NATO (1951-1952). Crusade in Europe is a book of wartime memoirs by General Dwight D. Eisenhower published by Doubleday in 1948. Maps were provided by Rafael Palacios. Crusade in Europe is a personal account by one of the senior military figures of World War II. It recounts his appointment by General George Marshall to plan the defense of the Philippines and continues to describe his appointment to, and execution of, the role of Supreme Allied Commander in Northern Europe. The book was dictated by Eisenhower to Kenneth McCormick of Doubleday and Joseph Fels Barnes, former foreign editor of the New York Herald Tribune. It was revised by Eisenhower's aide Kevin McCann. Derived from a Kirkus review: This stands head and shoulders above the other records of fighting men, in its simplicity, clarity, and the illumination it throws on the basic human relations of the men at the top. In his Normandy to the Baltic, Montgomery wrote:- "We are still too close to the events to attempt a critical analysis of the campaign." The same could be said of this book, but in spite of that General Eisenhower manages to convey a sense of objective surveying of the forging of victory over the Germans. This is the real inside story of the war in Europe, not in terms of jealousy and backbiting and gossip mongering, but in terms of its planning, its diplomacy, its action and its victorious ending. More than that, it is revealing of the greatness, the modesty, the statesmanship of one of America's truly great men. This is more than a soldier's story. It is the story of America's contribution to victory, of the splendid cooperation of the allies, of campaigns in Africa, Sicily, Italy, France and Germany. It is a tribute to the men who fought on various fronts under the most trying conditions. It is a picture of the destruction and horror of war. It is a plea for preparedness to forestall and prevent, if possible, a future war, or at least to be strong in case of war. It is an appraisal of what democracies can do when united. It is a fair analysis of the Russian colossus. It is the innermost story of a great Crusader and the book is worthy of the man. Book Club Edition [Book of the Month Club selection]. Rafael Palacios (Maps) and Edward Steichen (Select (ilustrador). …

Hardcover. Condición: Very good. Estado de la sobrecubierta: Very good. xiv, 697, [7], pages. Endpaper map. Footnotes. Maps. List of Maps. Illustrations. Appendix. Index. Donald Knox (1936-1986), an award-winning television producer and director, was the author of several books on military history, including The Korean War and Death March. This book brings to life one of the most bitter and inglorious conflicts in American history. Drawing on his interviews with hundreds of veterans of Korea, Knox masterfully weaves personal stories with military records to create a vivid, day-by-day chronicle of the war's first savage months of fighting. Derived from a Kirkus review: A principal virtue of this moving reprise of the Korean War's first seven months is its human-scale focus. Using unit combat diaries, official communiques, and other contemporary sources, Knox sketches in the big picture. The real story is in the day-to-day detail provided by scores of officers and enlisted men who survived campaigns in such places as Ascom City, Hagaru-ri, P'yongyang, Taegu, Wonsan, et al. When the North invaded South Korea in June of 1950, the UN authorized member nations to come to the latter's aid. American soldiers bore the brunt of the fighting. MacArthur regained the initiative with a daring amphibious assault at Inch'on. North Korea's troops were in retreat, and there was an expectation of an armistice. But the Marines encountered a new enemy--the Chinese. Surrounded at the Chosin Reservoir, the Marines withdrew, reaching an evacuation port with their wounded and equipment. Knox offers an eloquent record of the sacrifices. First Edition [Stated], First Printing [Stated]. Rafael D. Palacios (Maps), Edward Abrams (Jacket I (ilustrador). …
