The Bitter Road To Freedom A New History Of The Liberation Of Europe 2008 (William I Hitchcock)

0743273818 Free Press 2008​

Catergory: History, Military, Nonfiction

The Bitter Road to Freedom is a powerful, deeply moving account of an earth-shattering year in the history of the U.S. and Europe.

Americans are justly proud of the role their country played in liberating Europe from Nazi tyranny. For many years, we have celebrated the courage of Allied soldiers, sailors, and aircrews who defeated Hitler’s regime and restored freedom to the continent. But in recounting the heroism of the "greatest generation," Americans often overlook the wartime experiences of European people themselves-the very people for whom the war was fought.

In this brilliant new book, historian William I. Hitchcock surveys the European continent from D-Day to the final battles of the war and the first few months of peace. Based on exhaustive research in five nations and dozens of archives, Hitchcock’s groundbreaking account shows that the liberation of Europe was both a military triumph and a human tragedy of epic proportions.

This strikingly original, multinational history of liberation brings to light the interactions of soldiers and civilians, the experiences of noncombatants, and the trauma of displacement and loss amid unprecedented destruction. This book recounts a surprising story, often jarring and uncomfortable, and one that has never been told with such richness and depth.

Ranging from the ferocious battle for Normandy (where as many French civilians died on D-Day as U.S. servicemen) to the plains of Poland, from the icy ravines of the Ardennes to the shattered cities and refugee camps of occupied Germany, The Bitter Road to Freedom depicts in searing detail the shocking price that Europeans paid for their freedom.

Publisher’s Summary

What would you do if you lived in a world where your every move was
scrutinized by your own personal artificial intelligence – a world where
everything is regulated, from power usage to relationships – a world
where everything you thought you knew turned out to be a lie?

Welcome to Tisaia – the last hub of modern civilization in a world left
scorched by the nuclear fires of the Biomass Wars. Surrounded by a fortress
of steel walls and protected by a fierce and loyal Council of Royal
Knights, Tisaia seems relatively safe to the average State worker and
citizen. A plentiful supply of Biomass powers the cities and food is
abundant, but security has come at a terrible cost. The State will do
anything to protect its resources, even if it means suppressing the
rights of its citizens and deporting immigrants into the Wasteland –
a virtual death sentence.

Spurious Timur is one of the State workers helping keep the wheels of
prosperity turning in Tisaia. As he starts to explore Tisaia and question
his own worth, he realizes there may be more to his subsistence than
he thought. When he meets and falls for co-worker Lana Padilla, he begins
to understand he may hold the key to restoring Tisaia to a just and
free State.

However, restoring Tisaia will come at a cost; both to Spurious and
those he cares about, because in Tisaia nothing is ever what it seems.
And as more of his past begins to surface, he is faced with the ultimate
decision–on which side of the revolution should he fight?

The Biology Of Kindness – (Immaculata De Vivo)

The science is in: being good is actually good for you. In The Biology of Kindness-the first in a trilogy on the topic of daily wellness-the science of mindfulness and the findings of biology come together to show how kindness and optimism improve overall well-being in profound, organic, and demonstrable ways. Daniel Lumera, an expert in meditation and mindfulness, and Immaculata De Vivo, a preeminent researcher in molecular epidemiology, outline a revolutionary approach to health, longevity, and quality of life-and explain the scientific evidence that supports their work.
Identifying five fundamental values and describing six essential strategies for cultivating these values, De Vivo and Lumera chart a practical course for pursuing a long, healthy, and happy life. Along the way they provide the scientific data that reveal the impact such behavior has on biology. The Biology of Kindness offers incontrovertible evidence that what is commonly ascribed to "spiritual" well-being has a clear and direct impact on physical health, helping to buffer premature aging and decrease the incidence of chronic disease.
At a time when life seems to be ruled by a desire to get "everything and immediately," Lumera observes, there is a compelling case to be made for the discipline of devotion, dedication, and passion-for the good of the body and soul. Click to expand…

The Binding Chronicles Elayna R Gallea – (Gallea, Elayna R.)

He’s a halfling yearning for adventure. She’s the vampire trying to keep him safe.
Marius Wisethorn, Prince of Eleyta, has always wanted one thing: adventure. One night, the perfect opportunity falls in his lap. He intercepts a message about a feral, ancient vampire that has escaped its tomb and comes up with the perfect plan. He’ll track down the First and kill it, proving to his sister that he’s ready to explore the world.
Vivienne Beaumont never expected her job as the halfling prince’s bodyguard to be so much work. She’s been a soldier for a century, and this should have been easy in comparison. She’s wrong, though. The prince runs away on her first night, and suddenly, the blood vow she took to keep him safe mocks her. In an effort to keep him safe, she joins him on his foolish mission to stop the First.
He’s a magnet for trouble. She’s just trying to keep him (and herself) alive. Neither expects to find love along the way.
This is a standalone fantasy romance that takes place after Tethered, Tormented, and Treasured. It can be listened to on its own but is best enjoyed after the trilogy. Click to expand…

was doing 20 years before he wrote the epic Cryptonomicon, it’s back-to-school
time. Back to The Big U, that is, an hilarious send-up of American college
life, starring 30-year-old junior Casimir Radon. Now reissued after
years out of print, The Big U is required listening for anyone interested
in the early work of this singular writer.

Book Description
======
In this extraordinary World War II alternate history, master storyteller
Harry Turtledove begins with a big switch: what if Neville Chamberlain,
instead of appeasing Hitler, had stood up to him in 1938? Enraged, Hitler
reacts by lashing out at the West, promising his soldiers that they
will reach Paris by the new year. They don’t. Three years later, his
genocidal apparatus not fully in place, Hitler has barely survived a
coup, while Jews cling to survival. But England and France wonder whether
the war is still worthwhile.

Weaving together a cast of characters that ranges from a brawling American
fighter in the Abraham Lincoln Brigade in Spain to a woman who has seen
Hitler’s evil face-to-face, Harry Turtledove takes us into a world shaping
up very differently in 1941. The Germans and their Polish allies have
slammed into the gut of the Soviet Union in the west, while Japan pummels
away in the east. In trench warfare in France, French and Czech fighters
are outmanned but not outfought by their Nazi enemy. Then the stalemate
is shattered. In England, Winston Churchill dies in an apparent accident,
and the gray men who walk behind his funeral cortege wonder who their
real enemy is. The USSR, fighting for its life, makes peace with Japan—and
Japan’s war with America is about to begin.

A sweeping saga of human passions, foolishness, and courage, of families
and lovers and soldiers by choice and by chance, The Big Switch is a
provocative, gripping, and utterly convincing work of alternate history
at its best. For history buffs and fans of big, blood-and-guts fiction,
Harry Turtledove delivers a panoramic clash of ideals as powerful as
armies themselves.

Book Description
======
As the Electoral College battle for the White House lands in a Florida–
courtroom, Miami attorney Jack Swyteck has never felt farther from the–
truth, fighting for a faithless elector, caught between a corrupt
president and his manipulative opponent – with each revelation more
explosive than the next.

The country is reeling. For the sixth time in American history, the
winner of the popular vote will not occupy the Oval Office. President–
Malcolm MacLeod, the Machiavellian incumbent, was spared from
impeachment only because his political foes were certain they would
oust him at the ballot box. Now, he appears to have secured a second
term, thanks to a narrow victory in the Electoral College.

His opponent, Florida Senator Evan Stahl, saw his campaign rocked by
allegations of an extramarital affair – with another man. Despite the–
salacious headline-making scandal and the surrounding media frenzy,
most Americans chose Stahl to lead the politically polarized nation.
But Stahl is refusing to concede. Backed by millions of supporters,
he
looks to individual members of the Electoral College to cross party
lines.

Gun lobbyist Charlotte Holmes is one of Floridas 29 electors who is
bound by law and by oath to cast her vote for MacLeod, who won Florida–
by the thinnest of margins. When Charlotte announces that she intends–
to vote her conscience and throw the Electoral College to Stahl, the
president and his Florida machine haul her into court on felony
charges – which, for some, isn’t nearly punishment enough.

Miami attorney Jack Swyteck is going to use every legal maneuver he
can to keep his new client free – and alive. MacLeod’s hand-picked
prosecutor is determined to prove Charlotte is unfit to cast a vote.
Dredging through her past, he’s looking for skeletons to humiliate and–
discredit her, while others with far deadlier intentions have begun
acting on their threats.

As the pressure mounts, Charlotte and Jack must decide how far they’ll–
go to stand their ground in the stand-your-ground state.
