A History of the Twentieth Century: The Concise Edition of the Acclaimed World History


Description

Martin Gilbert, author of the multivolume biography of Winston Churchill and other brilliant works of history, chronicles world events year by year, from the dawn of aviation to the flourishing technology age, taking us through World War I to the inauguration of Franklin Roosevelt as president of the United States and Hider as chancellor of Germany. He continues on to document wars in South Africa, China, Ethiopia, Spain, Korea, Vietnam, and Bosnia, as well as apartheid, the arms race, the moon landing, and the beginnings of the computer age, while interspersing the influence of art, literature, music, and religion throughout this vivid work.A rich, textured look at war, celebration, suffering, life, death, and renewal in the century gone by, this volume is nothing less than extraordinary.

Jonathan Trefoil's boss is unhinged, his relationship baffling and his apartment just the wrong side of legal. His girlfriend wants to marry someone just like him - only richer and more organised with a different sense of humour. On the plus side, his two flatmates are determined to fix his life - or possibly to destroy it altogether. It's difficult to be certain as they only speak dog. Poor Jonathan. He doesn't remember life being this confusing back in the good old days before everyone expected him to act like a person. But one thing he knows for sure: if he can make it in New York City, he can make it anywhere. Will he get out of advertising, meet the girl of his dreams and figure out the gender of his secret crush? Given how it's going so far, probably not. Top-class grim reaper Lisara sneaks into the human realm and forms a temporary contract with the (un?)lucky letch Ryosuke Kaga as she searches for a singular person, an individual who possesses great spiritual power. On the hunt at Ryosuke's school, Lisara encounters and rejects the popular president of the boxing club, Johnny and the Dead free epub Hikaru Tamano. But the guy doesn't know how to take no for an answer! When he confronts the duo again, he knows about Lisara's circumstances for some reason, and his spirit power is through the roof!! Who is the mysterious busty babe pulling the strings from the shadows?!
