Download or read book Tapping Hitler s Generals written by Sönke Neitzel and published by Pen and Sword. This book was released on 2013-07-19 with total page 863 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: These transcripts of wiretapped conversations between Nazi officers reveal “a fascinating—and chilling—insight into the German view of the war” (Financial Times). Between 1939 and 1942, the British Directorate of Military Intelligence created a number of POW interrogation camps in and around London where they secretly recorded private conversations between senior German staff officers. In this extraordinary work, historian Sonke Neitzel examines these transcripts in depth and presents the private thoughts, opinions, and secrets of Nazi officers during the Second World War. These transcripts address important questions regarding the officers’ attitudes towards the German leadership and Nazi policies: How did the German generals judge the overall war situation? From what date did they consider it lost? How did they react to the attempt on Hitler’s life in July 1944? What knowledge did they have of the atrocities? By turns insightful and horrifying, this unprecedented research is a must for any serious scholar of the period. “A goldmine of information about what the German High Command privately thought of the war, Adolf Hitler, the Nazis and each other.” —Daily Mail

Download or read book Reel Baseball written by Les Krantz and published by Doubleday Books. This book was released on 2006 with total page 0 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: REEL BASEBALL is an enchanting look back at baseball from 1932 to 1965, a time when major league teams were franchised only in America’s biggest cities in the East. Back then, most Americans who witnessed baseball did so in local theaters where game highlights were shown in the newsreels before the feature film.This handsomely illustrated, two-color volume traces the seminal role of newsreels in making baseball the national pastime, before major league teams expanded to the South and West and television brought the game into homes across America. A one-hour DVD accompanies the book and presents the most thrilling moments from these original newsreels A grand compilation of baseball at its best, REEL BASEBALL invites fans to both read about and watch, on the accompanying DVD, Babe Ruth as he smashed a home run in the very first All-Star Game in 1933; Bobby Thomson of the New York Giants as his bat cracked the “shot heard round the world,” winning the pennant with a home run against the Brooklyn Dodgers in 1951; and Pete Gray, the “one-armed wonder” who amazed St. Louis Browns fans in 1944. The book and DVD brilliantly capture the magic of “Joltin’ Joe” DiMaggio, the “Say Hey Kid” (Willie Mays), “Stan the Man” Musial,and other legendary players who elevated the boys of summer to the pinnacle of American popular culture.
