Forum CM: Ebooki traktujące o II wojnie światowej
Czy ktoś posiada jakieś ebooki dot. II wojny światowej, lub ew. zna jakąś stronkę gdzie można takowe spotkać? Od razu mówię, że mogą być zarówno o postaciach, operacjach jak i o sprzęcie. Obecnie posiadam jedną elektroniczną książkę napisaną przez niejakiego A. Hitlera :), którą zdobyłem dzięki temu forum. Jeśli są zainteresowani to walić do mnie śmiało, ale mam nadzieję, że swoje zbiory (o ile takie posiadacie) także udostępnicie.

*******************
The Encyclopedia of Weapons of World War II by Chris Bishop (Editor); Metro Books; ISBN: 1586637622; (October 2002)
"This authoritative compendium details the military equipment used between 1939 and 1945, from combat handguns to massive aircraft carriers. With an extensive collection of color and black and white photographs and full color illustrations, every entry provides a detailed history of the weapon’s design and development."

Germany's Secret Weapons in World War II by Roger Ford, Paul Wood; Motorbooks International; ISBN: 0760308470; (March 2000)
"During the course of war, man's ingenuity inevitably results in the development of new tools of destruction. At no time and place in history has this been more true than World War II Germany, when scientists and engineers of the Third Reich mounted a campaign intended to change the face of warfare itself. Superbly illustrated with full-color drawings and specially commissioned cutaways, this study provides a wealth of information on all of Germany's secret weapons programs during World War II, offering an in-depth look at Germany's successes and failures with rocketry and jets, helicopters, submarines and torpedoes, armored fighting vehicles, artillery, anti-tank armaments, and surface-to-surface missiles. Each piece of artwork is accompanied by a comprehensive specification table." (review source: Amazon.com)

Gun Camera - World War II: Photography from Allied Fighters and Bombers over Occupied Europe by L. Douglas Keeney; Motorbooks International; ISBN: 0760310130; (January 15, 2001)
"The air war over occupied Europe and Nazi Germany is illustrated from the unique and dramatic point of view of gun cameras mounted on Allied aircraft. The story begins as American bombers fall prey to Nazi flak and fighters and continues through the recapture of European skies as seen from American P-51 Mustangs and P-47 Thunderbolts and British Spitfires. Also depicted are breathtaking images of ground strafings and crews coaxing crippled bombers into perilous belly landings." (review source: Amazon.com)

Hitler's Table Talk 1941-1944 by Wilhelm Hottl, Norman Cameron (Translator), R. H. Stevens (Translator), Trevor-ro, Hugh Trevor-Roper (Editor); Enigma Books; ISBN: 1929631065; (March 1, 2002)
"On Martin Bormann's instructions, the secret conversations at Hitler's headquarters, from July 1941 to November 1944, were all recorded for posterity. This extraordinary document is the result. In the relaxed atmosphere of his inner circle, Hitler talked freely about his aims, his early life, his plans for world conquest, and a new German empire. The full text of Hitler`S Table Talk, as annotated and preserved by Martin Bormann, is presented here. There are few examples available of Hitler's thought processes, especially during the war when he practically stopped appearing and speaking in public. These notes show a Hitler relaxed, but very much `in control` of his utterances, revealing some of the more brutal and violent traits of his nature as he casually recommends `shooting` people without trial, or sending them to concentration camps by the hundreds of thousands. This book is the most significant record of Hitler's mind and character in existence. Revealing, for instance, his thoughts on the English language, which he thought inferior to German, as it `lacks the ability to express thoughts that surpass the order of concrete things,` his hatred of idealism, and how `he found it quite normal that the bodies of his political prisoners should be burned and their ashes used by his SS guards to manure their gardens.` It must be read, to understand the inner workings of a mind capable of genocide. A rare and revealing look into a repellent mind. Professor Hugh Trevor-Roper provides an Introduction on `The Mind of Adolf Hitler` and a preface on developments since the book was first published in 1953." Amazon.com

Inside the Great Tanks by Hans Halberstadt; Crowood Pr Ltd; ISBN: 1861262701; (November 1998)
"This book is outstanding in its presentation of the real meat of armored vehicles. It puts you in the turret and drivers seat of some old and some new tanks through its superb photographs and excellent write ups. The Road Report on each vehicle by those that have actually driven these vehicles adds much credibility and real feel for the beasts. The only improvement I could make to it would be to add more vehicles to the already impressive list covered. Great job Hans!" (review source: Amazon.com)

Kursk: The Greatest Tank Battle 1943 by M. K. Barbier, Kathryn Barbier; Motorbooks International; ISBN: 0760312540; (March 2002)
"A great book on Kursk in particular and on Barbarossa in general. The captions are extremely well written and provide a lot of new insight on Soviet strategy and the surprising poverty of German tactics. The photos, many of which I don't think have been previously published in an English-language book, are incredible. Specialists and general readers alike will enjoy this book." (review source: Amazon.com)

Panzertruppen: Les Troupes Blindees Allemandes German Armored Troops 1935-1945 by Francois De Lannoy, Josef Charita, Francois de Lannoy; Heimdal; ISBN: 2840481510; Bilingual edition (February 1, 2002)
One of the best books on the subject of German tank forces and operations of the Second World War. This book is packed with color and black-and-white photos of high quality accompanied by informative and accurate captions. (Venik)

The Fall of Berlin 1945 by Antony Beevor; Viking Press; ISBN: 0670030414; (May 9, 2002)
"This work is a combination of Ryan's study in The Last Battle and countless others. There is nothing original in this work at all, it has all been said before. Beevor should spend more time on the tragedy of the conflict then speculating on 'overestimates' in the number of Germans raped, killed, and wounded by the Red Army. I've known that the Russians wanted German atomic secrets since I took the AP European History exam in 1984. Beevor also tries to take both aides yet this book becomes a stroy of a Berlin and not of the Soivet offensive just like his work Stalingrad was a book on the Germany Sixth Army. He even has the arrogant nerve to say that the Russain veterans he interviewed do not disclose the full horror of how the Red Army raped women in East Prussia. I challenge him to fight in the worst war in human history, survive, and write a book worth the blood and sacrifice of these men that faced death every second of every day."

World War II in Photographs by Richard Holmes; Carlton Books; ISBN: 184222073X; 1 edition (October 1, 2000)
"Holmes' poignant book contains 500 photographs, almost all of them black-and-white and most drawn from Britain's Imperial War Museum. A few were taken by prominent photographers, such as Cecil Beaton and Robert Capa, but many of the photographers--some destined to remain unknown, others ordinary officers and men--served with army film and photographic units. There are also captured German and Japanese official photographs. Presentation is by year, from 1939 to 1945. Holmes prefaces each year with an account of its major events and briefly introduces each block of photos within a year. Although most of the pictures are war photos, some reflect the fact that millions of civilians were affected-- young children being evacuated from London, a British air raid warden comforting a child rescued from a bombed-out home, German citizens made to view the horrors of the Buchenwald concentration camp, shaven-headed French women accused of sexually consorting with the Germans. World War II enthusiasts will want both books." (review source: Amazon.com)

The Eastern Front: in Photographs 1941-1945, by John Erickson, Ljubica Erickson; Carlton Books Limited; (June 2001), ISBN: 1842222422
Published to coincide with the sixtieth anniversary of the opening of the biggest military campaign in history on June 22, 1941, Barbarossa in Photographs shows the brutality, horror and heroism of war on the Eastern Front as never before. This authoritative and unforgettable account of the conflict that sealed the fate of Nazi Germany and shaped the world's postwar history is written by Professor John Erickson and his wife, Ljubica. Professor Erickson is acknowledged as the world's leading authority on the Great Patriotic War, having published the two classic text histories of the period, The Road to Stalingrad and The Road to Berlin, which are still in print over 20 years after first publication. Over 300 previously unpublished photographs, recently released from the Russian archives, supplemented by images from other major sources, illustrate every phase and aspect of the Eastern Front campaigns, from the Nazis' early blitzkrieg successes, the battle for Moscow and the terrible siege of Leningrad, through the turning-point street fighting for Stalingrad, and the subsequent Soviet successes at Kursk and Operation Bagration, to the climactic fall of Berlin and the link-up between Soviet and Western armies amid the ruins of the "1000-year Reich". This is total war in its most barbaric form: nearly 30 million Soviet soldiers and citizens were killed during four years of struggle against their German invaders. (Review source: Amazon.com)

mages of Kursk: History's Greatest Tank Battle, July 1943, by Nik Cornish, Nikolas Cornish, Brasseys, Inc.; (November 1, 2002), ISBN: 1574885766
Contains more than 300 photographs, many from Russian archives and previously unpublished. Features firsthand accounts from Russian and German soldiers and presents details on the air action. Includes biographical information about the main German and Soviet commanders. Images of Kursk is an illustrated account of a pivotal battle on the Eastern Front during World War II. At Kursk, the Germans threw 900,000 men and 2,500 tanks against 1,300,000 soldiers and 3,000 tanks of the Red Army in a savage battle of attrition. Unlike many pictorial accounts of the war on the Eastern Front, Images of Kursk draws upon both German and Russian archive material. All the photographs of the Red Army at Kursk, moreover, are previously unpublished images. The book begins with the build-up of forces before the battle and then illustrates the offensive by two German army groups against the Kursk salient. The images convey the true scale, intensity, and horror of the fighting as the Germans tried in vain to batter their way through the Soviet defensive systems. A chapter is devoted to the climactic battle at the village of Prokhorovka, in which 1,000 tanks engaged each other furiously at point-blank range. With authoritative text and extended captions, Images of Kursk is an enthralling pictorial record of the battle that shifted the strategic initiative on the Eastern Front to the Red Army for good. Written in an informative yet exciting style, it will appeal to military specialists and laymen alike. (Review source: Amazon.com)

Kursk: The German View, by Steven H. Newton (Translator), DaCapo Press; (March 25, 2003), ISBN: 0306811502
"Firsthand accounts of the German commanders who planned and executed the largest tank battle in history. The battle of Kursk, fought in the summer of 1943, involved six thousand German and Soviet armored vehicles, making it the biggest tank battle of all time and possibly the largest battle of any kind. Students of military history have long recognized the importance of Kursk, also known as "Operation Citadel," and there have been several serious studies of the battle. Yet, the German view of the battle has been largely ignored. After the war, U.S. Army Intelligence officers gathered German commanders' post-war reports of the battle. Due, in part, to poor translations done after the war, these important documents have been overlooked by World War II historians. Steven H. Newton has collected, translated, and edited these accounts, including reports made by the Chiefs of Staff of Army Group South and the Fourth Panzer Army, and by the Army Group Center Operations Officer. As a result, a new and unprecedented picture of German strategy and operations is made available. The translated staff reports are supplemented by Newton's commentary and original research, which challenges a number of widely accepted ideas about this pivotal battle. (Review source: Amazon.com)

Zhukov's Greatest Defeat: The Red Army's Epic Disaster in Operation Mars, 1942 (Modern War Studies), by David M. Glantz, Mary E. Glantz (Translator), Publisher: Univ Pr of Kansas; (April 1999), ISBN: 070060944X
From the author: "You should understand the context within which I wrote the book and my motivation in writing it and the other books. I spent 15 years attempting to counter the German view of the war, which dominated the field from 1945 through the late 1970s. With my friend John Erickson, I have sought to reveal the tremendous (if not decisive) contributions the Red Army made to the war effort. I did this by writing about the operations German sources tended to overlook, particularly after 1943. When Titans Clashed represented the culmination of that work. In the process, while the Russians labeled me as a "bourgeiose objectivist" rather than a "bourgeiose falsifier," others accused me of being a Communist sympathizer or worse. In the interest of objectivity, more recently I have devoted my efforts to the some 40 percent of the war which has been ignored for a variety of reasons by both sides, the portion of the war I refer to as the "forgotten battles." I do so out of respect for the many millions of Red Army soldiers who perished anonymously and without mention, whose sons and daughters now write to me and encourage me in my work. The study of "forgotten battles" is a work in progress. Mars was just the first, but there are many more. As a by-product of this process, the military reputations of many Soviet general officers, which were formed in the post-war years (often for political reasons) require revision. While Zhukov's reputation may diminish, others like Vasilevsky, Rokossovsky, Vatutin, and others will rise. In the meantime, I will let the archival materials speak for themselves and the chips fall where they may. Most important, I hope interest in the subject receives the attention the horrendous death toll requires. Thanks, David M. Glantz" (Review source: Amazon.com)
