Musil Jiri
The End of Czechoslovakia
Budapest: A Central European University Press Book. As New. 1995. Trade Paperback. 296 pages. In this book scholars and practitioners from both sides of the divide Czech and Slovak as well as experts from the United States and France seek to explain why after the collapse of the communist regime Czechoslovakia split into two separate states. In trying to interpret the causes and processes of a modern state's peaceful disintegration the authors though addressing the subject from their own viewpoints have used an analytical non-evaluative approach. The study also seeks to fulfil other objectives--both theoretical and practical. On the one hand the Czechoslovak experience is used to explore the concepts and instruments of European integration as a whole and the theory of contemporary nationalisms; on the other it could well have some practical policy implications for those countries facing similar problems. .

Biddiscombe, Perry
Werwolf! - The History of the National Socialist Guerrilla Movement 1944-1946
Toronto: University of Toronto Press. 1998. First Edition. Hardcover. 0802008623 . "Near the end of the Second World War a National Socialist resistance movement known as the Werwolf flickered briefly to life in Germany and its borderlands. Dedicated to delaying the advance of the Allies on both fronts the Werwolf succeeded in scattered acts of sabotage and violence. By the spring of 1945 it also showed signs of becoming a vengeful Nazi reaction against the German populace itself. 'Collaborators' and 'defeatists' were frequently assassinated and crude posters warned that certain death would follow any failure to resist the enemy. The most complete history to date of the Nazi partisan movement." - dust jacket. xi 1 14 plates 455 p. Index bibliography and extensive footnotes. Black and white photographic plates. Clean bright tight and unmarked with negligible wear. Dust jacket now in glossy new archival-grade protection. Probably unread. A superior example. ; 8vo . University of Toronto Press hardcover
