【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Women at the Hague The International Peace Congress of 1915【電子書籍】[ Jane Addams ]

<p>In 1915, shortly after the outbreak of World War I, between twelve hundred and two thousand women representing twelve nations journeyed to The Netherlands to plead for peace at The Hague. At this first International Congress of Women they called for "continuous mediation" until peace was restored, and they met with representatives of the warring governments in an idealistic attempt to halt the military clash. Although they did not stop the war, their proposals are still used as guidelines for most diplomatic negotiations between hostile nations.</p> <p>Three highly talented, progressive women led the American delegation: two Nobel Peace Prize winners--Jane Addams (cofounder of Hull-House in Chicago) and Emily G. Balch (a distinguished sociologist who taught at Wellesley College)--as well as Alice Hamilton (the first industrial physician in the United States and also the first woman to join the faculty of Harvard University).This book is the first-hand report by these three remarkable women of their mission for peace. Balch and Hamilton devote several chapters to a description of their travels, their visits with various heads of state, and meetings with pacifists in different countries. In a controversial chapter, Addams sharply criticizes the older male patriarchal leadership that manipulates young men to fight needless wars. Addams concludes the volume by advocating women's full participation as voting citizens to promote the cause of peace and the spirit of internationalism.</p> <p>This edition is enhanced by an introduction by University of Nebraska scholar Mary Jo Deegan, this new edition of a valuable historical document will be of interest to students of women's studies, history, and international relations.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】THE MAIDEN’S ROCK ? a Children’s story from Saxony-Anhalt Baba Indaba Children's Stories - Issue 272【電子書籍】[ Anon E. Mouse ]

<p>ISSN: 2397-9607 Issue 272<br /> In this 272nd issue of the <em><strong>Baba Indaba’s Children's Stories</strong></em> series, Baba Indaba narrates “THE MAIDEN’S ROCK”, a story from Saxony-Anhalt.</p> <p>It seems that, a thousand years ago and more, there dwelt in the village of Pfaffendorf, close by, a terrible old witch, who went by the name of Mother Gundelheind. No one dared go near her or enter her house, but those who had ventured to peep through the window in her absence declared that a blue flame danced upon her hearthstone, above which some devilish brew hung boiling, and that a black fox crouched whining beside this uncanny fire.<br /> Many a belated passer-by had seen her at night, flashing through the air upon her broomstick; and sometimes she had a companion, a fiery dragon who flew by her side, and brought her great store of red, molten gold, that he dropped from his wings before her threshold. It is needless to say that she was never at home on Walpurgis-night (30 April or May Day's eve, also known as Hexennacht or Witches‘ Night), the great meeting time of all the witches and evil spirits; but, indeed, she was more often abroad.<br /> It was claimed by many that she worked her spells on many people in the village, but no-one was brave enough to challenge her face-to-face.<br /> Gundelheind had a young daughter Truda, and how she came by such a daughter none can tell; for Truda was as sweet as a May morning, and her hazel eyes had the look that the angels wear, in the church pictures. Instead of the old woman’s horny, blackened hide, Truda had a skin as fair and soft as cream.<br /> Everyone wondered if Truda would one day become a witch like her mother, or if she would forsake her mother’s ways once and for all? Gundelheind had to let Truda go into the village to buy supplies and she always paid in pure gold coin, which raised more many an eyebrow.<br /> Over Time Truda began taking longer and longer to make the trip which began to raise Gundelheind’s suspicions. But what was Truda up to? Was she falling into her mother’s ways, and practising withcraft in secret, or was it something else altogether?<br /> Well, if you want to know what it was, you’ll just have to download and read this story for yourself all the way to the end.</p> <p>Baba Indaba is a fictitious Zulu storyteller who narrates children's stories from around the world. Baba Indaba translates as "Father of Stories".</p> <p>Each issue also has a "<strong>WHERE IN THE WORLD - LOOK IT UP</strong>" section, where young readers are challenged to look up a place on a map somewhere in the world. The place, town or city is relevant to the story. <em>HINT - use Google maps.</em></p> <p>33% of the profit from the sale of this book will be donated to charities.<br /> INCLUDES LINKS TO DOWNLOAD 8 FREE STORIES</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

That We Might Become God The Queerness of Creedal Christianity【電子書籍】[ Andy Buechel ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】That We Might Become God The Queerness of Creedal Christianity【電子書籍】[ Andy Buechel ]

<p>Is it possible for orthodox, creedal Christianity to change its views on matters of sexuality and gender? In order to do so, must it simply incorporate elements of the secular world that are foreign to it? In That We Might Become God, Andy Buechel argues that many of the basic insights of queer theory are not only deeply amenable to the wider Christian tradition, but that they allow us to see that tradition with fresh eyes. The churches that are most concerned with maintaining theological tradition can, in fact, develop on these matters and, in so doing, deepen some of the most fundamental insights they cherish. Looking specifically at Christian teaching surrounding the Incarnation of Jesus Christ, the sacraments, and eschatology, Andy Buechel shows how deeply queer these areas are already. The insistence of too many churches to clinging to modern notions of sexuality and gender impede the proclamation of the good news, and this is needless. By attending to the ancient tradition in contemporary ways, this text demonstrates the coherence of that heritage today, as well as its capacity to develop to encompass all those whom God has created.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>When my husband bared his soul to me and told me his secret kink--that he wanted to wear a chastity cage and needed me to be his keyholder--I was more than a bit surprised.</p> <p>Oddly, this unusual request saved our marriage.</p> <p>It also sent us down a path of sexual adventures that I never would have guessed life held in store for us.</p> <p>And of course all along the way everyone told us we were doing chastity wrong.</p> <p>As if that’s a thing.</p> <p>This is a 57,000 word erotic novella that contains explicit sex and sexual descriptions of sexual encounters between adults. It focuses on male chastity, a female led relationship, group sex, multiple partners, cheating partners, risky sex, elements of BDSM, and other sexually explicit themes and language that not all members of the public will enjoy.</p> <p>Originally published in five parts.</p> <p>All characters are 18 or older.</p> <p>Excerpt:</p> <p>I didn’t realize it until well after the fact, but my husband’s confession to me was probably the bravest act he had ever undertaken in our relationship.

The Tenth Awakening【電子書籍】[ Margaret Liu ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】The Tenth Awakening【電子書籍】[ Margaret Liu ]

<p>Ever since I learnt the existence of words, I had always enjoyed the art of them and often obsessed over the beauty of literature. Between the ten years of eight to eighteen, I started to express my own emotions and thoughts through the form of poetry whilst writing more infrequently in my diaries. In my personal opinion, poetry is one of the finest forms for expressing one’s philosophy and creating a unique universe for your imagination to freestyle in. Now since thoughts are not limited by words as words are only the carrier of thoughts, so as soon as my thoughts leave my head, they could be interpreted in your own way. Poetry became a much larger part of my life ever since the pandemic of Covid-19 begun, I wrote more poems in the past year than all of the poems from other years combined. Whilst being fully aware of how the pandemic had disrupted many people’s lives including my own, one beauty of it is that it paid me back with plenty of ideas that I most possibly would not have got if things were to be otherwise. This poetry collection includes most of my works in English from the past ten years, I have made my best attempt to hunt down all the locations I could have possibly situated my words. Though, needless to say, I am undoubtedly aware that there are still some works I didn’t manage to retrieve and that they are swimming around in my pile of notebooks and files to this very day.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

At the Horizon of Life & Death Defenseless Warriors-1【電子書籍】[ Pankaj Kumar ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】At the Horizon of Life & Death Defenseless Warriors-1【電子書籍】[ Pankaj Kumar ]

<p><strong>The book is based on narratives based on the life time journey of the protagonist, Dr Anand, who since his teenage,</strong> was intrigued by the 'mystery surrounding death', the existence of spirits and souls and was shocked to know the 4000 years old cruel Hammurabi's code of medical regulation.</p> <p>The stories span from his initial days in ER (emergency room), when faced with patients near death overcoming his fears, and chronicle his struggle in complex medicolegal scenarios over the next four decades.</p> <p>Every day, Anand would witness patients sinking in front of his eyes. As a doctor true to his profession, he used to experience the divine exhilaration whenever he pulled his patients out from jaws of death. He worked amid weeping patients, heart wrenching cries of children, wailing mothers and silently sobbing fathers, all of them in the saddest mode of their lives. Patients, who look dead at one point, regain consciousness, open their eyes and communicate with their near and dear ones. A sense of gratitude and appreciation by patients provided enough reason for going on with the physical and mental rigors of the work.</p> <p>This book is borne out of the sensitivities involved while dealing with patients facing death.</p> <p>It comprises of stories that capture the pivotal moments in the treatment trajectory of the critical patients. It talks about the times that force the doctor to confront the saddest moments while battling a terrifying foe, the death monster alongside families' fear, gloom, indecisiveness and dilemmas about future, and saviour's own predicaments intertwined with medico-legal intricacies and consequent complex emotional interactions.</p> <p>The situations depict 'the real issues' through 'fictional narrative'.</p> <p>Diseases unmask the human fragility and hence the vulnerability that is intrinsic to the work of doctors. This vulnerability is exploited by many for their benefit - by 'media and celebrities' to sell their news and shows, by 'law industry' and 'industry's middlemen' to extract money.</p> <p>The stories describe the unfortunate consequences- demoralization, expensive medical education, suicide by doctors, nurses' plight, assaults and medico-legal torment of health care workers in the present era. Needless to say, the law industry benefits enormously at the cost of medical profession.</p> <p>But is this what the patients actually need? Would the entanglement of doctors in such a maze help the patients in real sense? No reward, if you win the match of life and death but a sword hanging if one were to lose? The patient will need to decide eventually, whether to be a consumer or remain a patient.</p> <p><strong>Being consumers may be a loss-making deal for the patients.</strong></p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Freedom from Anxiety and Needless Suffering【電子書籍】[ Colin Drake ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Freedom from Anxiety and Needless Suffering【電子書籍】[ Colin Drake ]

<p>This book has two aims, the first as a stand-alone guide to, and practices for, Awakening. Once this has taken place then anxiety and unnecessary mental suffering disappear, for these are caused by misidentifying oneself as a separate object in a world of separate objects. This causes us to see each other, and the world, through a murky filter of self-interest, self-concern, self-promotion etc. On Awakening one discovers that there truly is no separate self and so this filter is removed allowing us to see the world ‘as it is’ with no self-concern for the future or past. The second aim is to provide the reader with information on my spiritual journey. This will show the influences that have moulded my understanding so that the reader can understand the basis of my ‘pointers to awakening’ which constitute my books on the subject. One other thing that makes this book unique is that it is the first that contains all of the various practices that I have developed, and use(d), over the last eighteen years.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

New American Culture Race【電子書籍】[ Jerry Unis ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】New American Culture Race【電子書籍】[ Jerry Unis ]

<p>"New American Culture Race" is a short treatise about societal unrest, COVID-19 and its affect on American society and our evolution as a culture in response to the threat. From protests to policy, Jerry Unis notes the distinct American culture and how it is visible in moments like this. When we respond to crisis we respond primarily as Americans. What he has captured in the book is that American culture is growing, learning, and changing. A culture's response to a crisis on the scale of Covid-19 or racial relations is both immediate and long lasting. We see the closed shops on streets that used to be busy. But what will we see in 5 years? We live in a time that wherein we have allowed the woke movement to disconnect from the generation that preceded them (parents). There was a time in this country when raising children was nearly auto pilot. Now due to cultural influence in the parenting model, we have an entire generation that is separated from their parents beliefs, knowledge and even understanding. This results in an era of disjunctive cultural response to stimuli. Some may even call this societal unrest. Racial relations is a large and sore button that is accessible to push. Needless to say, it has been activated. New American Culture Race is about that struggle and presupposes certain outcomes based upon our American cultural response. That response is precipitated in actions or activities that are reflective of that change. We will see changes if we investigate through inquiry and observation. Not all of the changes are obvious. The changes do influence other areas of our existence. To that end, New American Culture Race points that out. How do we shop? How do we invest? What do we invest? Time, money, energy? As a human species certain habits and biological predispositions and predilections are nearly certain. New American Culture Race explores these questions and observations. Tell me what you think. Please just don't tell me that you don't think. Lets think together and discuss these issues that allow us a certain amount of insight into our planet through the eyes of the American culture.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

I'm So Glad We Had This Time Together A Memoir【電子書籍】[ Maurice Vellekoop ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】I'm So Glad We Had This Time Together A Memoir【電子書籍】[ Maurice Vellekoop ]

<p>**An astonishing, epic graphic memoir in the spirit of <em>Fun Home</em> by Alison Bechdel and <em>Gender Queer</em> by Maia Kobabe</p> <p>“<em>I’m So Glad We Had This Time Together</em> is that rarest of things: a book about coming out to a loving yet conservative family that is as heartrending to read as it is to look at. It’s an incredibly moving, funny, and ultimately triumphant account (spoiler alert!) of what can only be described as a magical fairy tale (pun totally intended!).”ーAnderson Cooper**</p> <p>Meet little Maurice Vellekoop, the youngest of four children raised by Dutch immigrants in the 1970s in a blue-collar suburb of Toronto. Despite their working-class milieu, the Vellekoops are devoted to art, music, and film, and they instill a deep reverence for the arts in young Mauriceーexcept for literature. He’d much rather watch Cher and Carol Burnett on TV than read a book. He also loves playing with his girlfriends’ Barbie dolls and helping his Mum in her hair salon, which she runs out of the basement of their house. In short, he is really, really gay. Which is a huge problem, because the family is part of the Christian Reformed Church, a strict Calvinist sect. They go to church twice on Sunday, and they send their kids to a private Christian school, catechism classes, and the Calvinist Cadet Corps. Needless to say, the church is intolerant of homosexuality. Though she loves her son deeply, Maurice’s mother, Ann, cannot accept him, setting the course for a long estrangement.</p> <p>Vellekoop struggles through all of this until he graduates from high school and is accepted into the Ontario College of Art in the early 1980s. Here he finds a welcoming community of bohemians, including a brilliant, flamboyantly gay professor who encourages him to come out. But just as he’s dipping his toes into the waters of gay sex and love, a series of romantic disasters, followed by a violent attack, sets him back severely. And then the shadow of the AIDS era descends. Maurice reacts by retreating to the safety of childhood obsessions, and seeks to satisfy his emotional needs with film- and theatre-going, music, boozy self-medication, and prolific art-making. When these tactics inevitably fail, Vellekoop at last embarks on a journey towards his heart’s true desire. In psychotherapy, the spiderweb of family, faith, guilt, sexuality, mental health, the intergenerational fallout of World War II, King Ludwig II of Bavaria, French Formula Hairspray, and much more at last begins to untangle. But it’s going to be a long, messy, and occasionally hilarious process.</p> <p><em>I’m So Glad We Had This Time Together</em> is an enthralling portrait of what it means to be true to yourself, to learn to forgive, and to be an artist.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Massacre in Minnesota The Dakota War of 1862, the Most Violent Ethnic Conflict in American History【電子書籍】[ Gary Clayton Anderson ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Massacre in Minnesota The Dakota War of 1862, the Most Violent Ethnic Conflict in American History【電子書籍】[ Gary Clayton Anderson ]

<p>In August 1862 the worst massacre in U.S. history unfolded on the Minnesota prairie, launching what has come to be known as the Dakota War, the most violent ethnic conflict ever to roil the nation. When it was over, between six and seven hundred white settlers had been murdered in their homes, and thirty to forty thousand had fled the frontier of Minnesota. But the devastation was not all on one side. More than five hundred Indians, many of them women and children, perished in the aftermath of the conflict; and thirty-eight Dakota warriors were executed on one gallows, the largest mass execution ever in North America. The horror of such wholesale violence has long obscured what really happened in Minnesota in 1862ーfrom its complicated origins to the consequences that reverberate to this day. A sweeping work of narrative history, the result of forty years’ research, <em>Massacre in Minnesota</em> provides the most complete account of this dark moment in U.S. history.</p> <p>Focusing on key figures caught up in the conflictーIndian, American, and Franco- and Anglo-DakotaーGary Clayton Anderson gives these long-ago events a striking immediacy, capturing the fears of the fleeing settlers, the animosity of newspaper editors and soldiers, the violent dedication of Dakota warriors, and the terrible struggles of seized women and children. Through rarely seen journal entries, newspaper accounts, and military records, integrated with biographical detail, Anderson documents the vast corruption within the Bureau of Indian Affairs, the crisis that arose as pioneers overran Indian lands, the failures of tribal leadership and institutions, and the systemic strains caused by the Civil War. Anderson also gives due attention to Indian cultural viewpoints, offering insight into the relationship between Native warfare, religion, and life after deathーa nexus critical to understanding the conflict.</p> <p>Ultimately, what emerges most clearly from Anderson’s account is the outsize suffering of innocents on both sides of the Dakota Warーand, identified unequivocally for the first time, the role of white duplicity in bringing about this unprecedented and needless calamity.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Ellen Duncan and The Proctor's Daughter【電子書籍】[ William Carleton ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Ellen Duncan and The Proctor's Daughter【電子書籍】[ William Carleton ]

<p>There are some griefs so deep and overwhelming, that even the best exertions of friendship and sympathy are unequal to the task of soothing or dispelling them. Such was the grief of Ellen Duncan, who was silently weeping in her lone cottage on the borders of Clareーa county at that time in a frightful state of anarchy and confusion. Owen Duncan, her husband, at the period about which our tale commences, resided in the cabin where he was born and reared, and to which, as well as a few acres of land adjoining, he had succeeded on the death of his father. They had not been long married, and never were husband and wife more attached. About this time outrages began to be perpetrated; and soon increased fearfully in number. Still Owen and Ellen lived happily, and without fear, as they were too poor for the marauders to dream of getting much booty by robbing; and their religion being known to be “the ould religion ov all ov all,” in a warfare that was exclusively one of party, they were more protected than otherwise. Owen never was particularly thrifty; and as his means were small, was generally embarrassed, or rather somewhat pinched in circumstances. Notwithstanding this, however, he was as happy as a king; and according to his unlettered neighbors' artless praise, “there wasn't a readier hand, nor an opener heart in the wide worldーthat's iv he had idーbut he hadn't an' more was the pity.” His entire possessions consisted of the ground we have mentioned, most part of which was so rocky as to be entirely uselessーa cow, a couple of pigs, and the “the uld cabin,” which consisted of four mud walls, covered with thatch, in which was an opening, “to let in the day-light, an' to let out the smoke.” In the interior there was no division, or separate apartment, as the one room contained the cooking materials, and all other necessaries, beside their bed, which was placed close to the fire, and, of course, nearly under the opening in the roof. If any one spqke to Owen about the chances of rain coming down to where they slept, his universal answer was, “Shure we're naither shugar nor salt, anyhow; an' a dhrop ov or a thrifle ov wind, was niver known to do any body harmーbarrin' it brought the typhus; but God's good, an' ordhers all for the best.” Owen had been brought up in this way, and so he could live by his labor, he never thought of needless luxuries; and Ellen, seeing him contented, was so herself. For some months previous to the time of which we write, Owen's affairs had been gradually getting worse and worse; and it was with no pleasing anticipations that he looked forward to his approaching rent day. His uneasiness he studiously kept a secret from his wife, and worked away seemingly with as much cheerfulness as ever, hoping for better days, and trusting in Providence! However, when within a week of the time that he expected a call from the agent, he found that with all his industry he had been only able to muster five and twenty shillings, and his rent was above five pounds. So, after a good deal of painful deliberation, he thought of selling his single cow, thinking that by redoubled exertion he might after a while be enabled to repurchase her; forgetting, that before the cow was sold was really the time to make the exertion.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Cancer A Journey of Attitude and Gratitude【電子書籍】[ Terry Moore ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Cancer A Journey of Attitude and Gratitude【電子書籍】[ Terry Moore ]

<p>Our world was turned upside down. Two months ago, my brother, Bob, was diagnosed with follicular lymphoma, a type of B-cell lymphoma, and bone cancer. Needless to say, it turned our world upside down. When we received his diagnosis, it literally knocked the wind out of me. Prior to that day, I did not even imagine that it could be cancer causing the lumps in his neck. I optimistically thought it could be benign, fatty tumors, but sadly, I was way off base on this one. To watch my brother cry was heart-wrenching. Not only am I his sister, I am also his appointment coordinator, his support system, and his cheerleader. He was scared, and so was I. Even all my years in nursing did not prepare me for handling the devastating effects that cancer can bring. Through these dark days, it was time for me to stay positive. Its time to stay courageous and help him to do the same. To help stay focused, I immediately started to journal my brothers journey dealing with cancer. I have always used journaling as my way of coping with lifes ups and downs. After a while, I recognized that through journaling and jotting down our experiences could perhaps help other cancer patients and their families. It is my way of taking a negative and turning it into a positive.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

<p>Not yet eighteen years of age, I was allowed to leave the office early before the nightly bombing began in earnest. Walking down the street on my way to the railway station, suddenly I found myself high up on a spiked metal fence outside an office building. An angry air-raid warden yelled at me, What are you doing climbing up there when an air raid is in progress? Why arent you in that shelter on the other side of the street under that eh, eh Building, he was about to say, when he saw that it was no longer there, just a huge cavity where the large office building with the shelter in the basement had been. Many workers were killed there. Then he turned his attention back to me as I was clamoring to be helped down. Why are you up there? he exclaimed in irritation. Mad as hell, I asked him how did he think I got up there by myself, hurting as I was and afraid I would soon be undressed, the iron spike of the fence having pierced the collar of my coat, and it was a long fall to the pavement. Needless to say I was as surprised as he was. How did I get there then?</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。

Rommel's Desert Campaigns, February 1941-September 1942: A Study In Operational Level Weakness [Illustrated Edition]【電子書籍】[ Major Donald E. Kirkland ]

【電子書籍なら、スマホ・パソコンの無料アプリで今すぐ読める!】Rommel's Desert Campaigns, February 1941-September 1942: A Study In Operational Level Weakness [Illustrated Edition]【電子書籍】[ Major Donald E. Kirkland ]

<p>Includes the War in North Africa Illustration Pack - 112 photos/illustrations and 21 maps.<br /> This study is a historical analysis to determine why Rommel's tactical success on the battlefield could not accomplish strategic objectives in North Africa. Rommel's operations are reviewed from his arrival in North Africa in February 1941 through his last offensive to destroy the British Eighth Army at Alamein in August-September 1942. The study compares his ability to conduct tactical operations with his apparent inability to plan and execute actions at the operational level of war. Rommel's problems with operational planning are addressed within the scope of campaign planning principles set forth in FM 100-5, Operations, (Final Draft). His planning is expressly judged on how he shaped his operational plans by using the concepts of aims, resources, constraints, and restrictions to conform to strategic guidance. Rommel's tactical execution is contrasted with his operational performance. This comparison is based on the AirLand Battle tenets of agility, initiative, depth, and synchronization. The study concludes that Rommel's failure lies in planning operations that exceeded his resources and conducting needless operations that resulted in the loss of the initiative at the decisive point. Rommel's plans exceeded the strategic objectives desired by the theater strategists. His execution was ultimately defeated by his quest for tactical victories without regard to how they contributed to achieving campaign objectives. Rommel's weakness at the operational level led to failure to sequence tactical victories to achieve campaign goals. This failure illustrates the importance of understanding how operational art orchestrates tactical activities to achieve strategic objectives within a theater of operations.</p>画面が切り替わりますので、しばらくお待ち下さい。 ※ご購入は、楽天kobo商品ページからお願いします。※切り替わらない場合は、こちら をクリックして下さい。 ※このページからは注文できません。
