Bibliography. From the Dust Jacket: "The 'All Americans' of the 82d Airborne Division participated in some of the toughest fighting of World War II. As a teenager John McKenzie joined the division shortly before the Normandy Invasion. He was one of many green unblooded replacements drawn from the holding depots in England to help fill out the 82d's ranks which had been badly depleted by their losses in Sicily and Italy. It didn't take long for McKenzie to turn into a hardened combat veteran as the paratroopers were used as shock troops leading the way in Allied attempts to break out of the hedgerow country of Normandy. Finally after being withdrawn from combat in mid-July 1944 McKenzie and his fellow paratroopers were next called on to air-assault into Holland as part of Field Marshal Montgomery's ill-fated Operation Market Garden immortalized in the Cornelius Ryan book A BRIDGE TOO FAR. In mid-November the 82d was finally relieved from the frontlines after two months of virtually continuous combat. Their respite proved short-lived as Allied strategic planning was thrown into chaos by the massive mid-December Nazi counterattack that became known as the Battle of the Bulge." keywords: Military history.

From the Dust Jacket: "This book makes available for the first time in English a large selection from the writings of one of the most remarkable figures of the Russian revolution. Alexandra Kollontai -- the only woman member of the Bolshevik central committee and the USSR's first Minister of Social Welfare… This volume gives a presentation of how her ideas developed in articles speeches diaries works of fiction excerpts from full-length books." Bound in the original black boards lettered in shiny gold on the spine.From the Dust Jacket: "In February 1945 350 American POWs captured earlier at the Battle of the Bulge or elsewhere in Europe were singled out by the Nazis because they were Jews or were thought to resemble Jews. They were transported in cattle cars to Berga a concentration camp in eastern Germany and put to work as slave laborers mining tunnels for a planned underground synthetic-fuel factory. This was the only incident of its kind during World War II. Starved and brutalized the GIs were denied their rights as prisoners of war their ordeal culminating in a death march that was halted by liberation near the Czech border. Twenty percent of these soldiers -- more than seventy of them -- perished. This is the story of hell in a small place over a period of ten weeks at a time when Hitler's Reich was crumbling but its killing machine still churned. It is a tale of madness and heroism and of the failure to deliver justice for what the Nazis did to these Americans. Roger Cohen uncovers exactly why the U.S. government did not aggressively prosecute the commandants of Berga why there was no particular recognition for the POWs in the postwar years and their harsh treatment in the postwar years and why it took decades for them to receive compensation."
