In this 200th Campaign series title Clayton Chun examines the final stages of World War II (1939-1945) as the Allies debated how to bring about the surrender of Japan. Chun not only describes the actual events but also analyzes the possible operations to capture the Japanese mainland which were never implemented. He details Operation Downfall (the planned invasion of the Japanese home islands) and its two-phased approach. Firstly Operation Olympic would see the invasion of Kyushu, followed by Operation Coronet which would see the invasion of the area around Tokyo.Chun goes on to examine exactly why these plans were never implemented, including Allied fears that both military and civilian casualties would be terrible and would result in a long, drawn out war of attrition. He then goes on to examine the horrific alternative to military invasion - the attacks on Hiroshima and Nagasaki with nuclear weapons - which made the Allied threat of "prompt and utter destruction" a reality. With a series of illustrations, including detailed diagrams of the atomic bombs, a depiction of the different stages of the explosions and maps of the original invasion plans, this book provides a unique perspective of a key event in world history.

The 14th century in Italian art is a very rich one, and Professor White's book gives architecture equal weight with painting and sculpture. The story of the Gothic style and the prehistory of the Renaissance is given: all the facts are related, but also the works of art are described with insight and for their own sakes, and not simply as data for fitting into schemes and theories. Among the great names are those of Arnolfo di Cambio, the Pisani, Cavallini, Cimabue, Duccio, Giotto, Simone Martini, and the Lorenzetti; among the buildings S. Croce, S. Maria Novella, the cathedral and the Palazzo Vecchio in Florence, and the cathedrals of Siena, Orvieto, and Milan, as well as churches, castles, and civic buildings from the Val d'Aosta to Sicily. The third edition of this work includes colour illustrations and incorporates textual revisions and an updated bibliography.

Eros was defiled.Today the results of the Fall are evident in premartial sex, extramartial sex, masturbation, homosexuality, and various forms of twisted sex. John White speaks with understanding and compassion about each of these sexual sins. He concludes with a telling chapter of how local churches can be communities for dealing with sexual sin in a context of love and forgiveness.

Sommergewitter an Loch 18? Macht doch nichts – Zeit für einen kleinen Streifzug, der weit über den heimischen Golfplatz hinausführt. Bis die Sonne wieder scheint, ist man in Eisenhowers Kabine in Augusta gewesen, hat sich in Musselburgh den „Bademeister“ angesehen und Tiger Woods näher kennengelernt. Mit Golf – eine kleine Platzlektüre, geschrieben von John White, einem irischen Autor mit einer immensem Datensammlung zum Thema Sport. 500 Schnipsel hat er zu einem Büchlein zusammengestellt, das munter aus der Welt des Golf erzählt. Erstaunliche Fakten, kluge Einsichten und Anekdoten berichten von großen Ereignissen, legendären Golfplätzen und der Faszination dieses Spiels.

Man staunt über moderne Anlagen und schmunzelt über die Spitznamen der Löcher auf dem ältesten Golfplatz der Welt. Das Buch nimmt einen mit zu den 1. British Open vor fast 150 Jahren und lässt Sir Winston Churchill zu Wort kommen: „Golf ist ein Spiel, bei dem man einen kleinen Ball in ein zu kleines Loch schlagen muss.“ Wenn jemand auf dem Golfplatz im Regen steht und schmunzelt, hat er bestimmt diese Lektüre in der Hand und nutzt die Pause für einen anregenden Streifzug durch die Welt der Greens und Fairways.
