Praise for the U.S. edition: "Here, finally, is the complete story with its fullcast of characters (not a dull one among them), pure cathnip tofans of World War II thrillers and a lot of fun for everyoneelse." — Joseph Kanon, Washington Post Book World "Brilliant and almost absurdly entertaining…The cast of charactersinvolved in Mincemeat, as the caper was called, was extraordinary,and Macintyre tells their stories with gusto." — Malcolm Gladwell, The New Yorker "OPERATION MINCEMEAT is utterly, to employ a dead word, thrilling.But to call it thus is to miss the point slightly in terms ofadmiring it properly….What makes OPERATION MINCEMEAT so winning, inaddition to Mr. Macintyre’s meticulous research and the layers ofhis historical understanding, is his elegant, jaunty, and veryBritish high style." — Dwight Garner, New York Times "Macintyre, whose previous book chronicled the incredible exploitsof Eddie Chapman, the crook turned spy known as Zigzag, excels atthis sort of twisted nar

THIS REPUBLIC OF SUFFERING(ISBN=9780375703836)
From Publishers Weekly Battle is thedramatic centerpiece of Civil War history; this penetrating studylooks instead at the somber aftermath. Historian Faust ( Mothersof Invention ) notes that the Civil War introduced America todeath on an unprecedented scale and of an unnatural kind—grisly,random and often ending in an unmarked grave far from home. Shesurveys the many ways the Civil War generation coped with thetrauma: the concept of the Good Death—conscious, composed and atpeace with God; the rise of the embalming industry; the sadattempts of the bereaved to get confirmation of a soldier's death,sometimes years after war's end; the swelling national movement torecover soldiers' remains and give them decent burials; theintellectual quest to find meaning—or its absence—in the war'scarnage. In the process, she contends, the nation invented themodern culture of reverence for military death and used the fallento elaborate its new concern for individual rights. Faust exhumes awealth of material—condole

STARS IN THEIR COURSES(ISBN=9780679601128) 英文原版
Shelby Foote, who cut such a courtly figure in Ken Burns's PBSseries The Civil War , is an uncommonly graceful writer aswell, and this careful study of the 1863 Gettysburg campaignassumes the contours of a classical tragedy. Foote positionsreaders on the field of battle itself, among swirling smoke andclattering grapeshot, and invites us to feel for ourselves itshellishness: "men on both sides were hollering as they milled aboutand fired, some cursing, others praying ... not a commingling ofshouts and yells but rather like a vast mournful roar." Foote'sfine book is history as literature, and a welcome addition to anyCivil War buff's library.

From Publishers Weekly Although Hitlertook his own life, there was no shortage of people who wanted, andattempted, to do it for him throughout his political career.Drawing on newly opened archives in Germany and elsewhere, Britishhistorian Moorhouse ( Microcosm: Portrait of a Central EuropeanCity ) casts a wide net, chronicling failed assassinationattempts by disaffected individuals in the early days of Hitler'sreign, such as radical university student Maurice Bavaud, whosethree easily thwarted tries in November 1938 got him guillotined;the efforts of a British group of James Bond–like spies armed with,among other things, "exploding rats"; and the well-known attemptsof German officers, such as Hitler's architect Albert Speer.Moorhouse also brings to light little-known would-be-assassins,such as members of the Polish underground. Most of theassassination attempts Moorhouse describes failed because of poorplanning; others fell victim to circumstance, while some may simplyhave been rumors, making for a comp
