In college while pursuing my degree in sociology one of my professors assigned the book Ordinary Men: Reserve Police Battalion 101 it was one of the most powerful books I have ever read. It does not justify their actions but gives perspective on what it takes to make a human go down that path. It explores the societal pressures, views and violence from within. It was not an easy read by any means but it was very thought provoking.

True indeed. It lasted 8 years with a million casualties and an extensive use of modern weaponry but it was forgotten just like the Korean war.

I could advice you to read The Iran-Iraq War by Pierre Razoux or The Iran-Iraq War: A Military and Strategic History by Williamson Murray

It's Real

>Papa, Mama, Brother, and Sister are getting new neighbors – The Panda Family. However, Papa isn’t sure that he likes the new neighbors because they are different than the rest of the bears. It’s up to both families to help Papa see that although the Panda family may look different – they are just like everyone else.

There is a movie about two Jewish prisoners escaping by stealing a German uniform but I forgot the name. (i don't think it's based on true events)

I can recommend a book called I escaped from auschwitz , it's the book where i got the story from.

If you guys are interested in an amazing story that surpasses any ww2 movie, i can highly recommend to read that book.

Jeremy Denton. A naval pilot who went down behind enemy lines and was held as a POW for almost 8 years. There’s a really great book about him by Alvin Townley. I’m not much of a reader but this book was great.

Every time traveler should have a copy of this book on their person at all times. It literally gives you a cheat sheet to recreate the modern world.

What do you mean "future historians"? Historians for decades have been confronting our narratives of what we consider "modern", "civilized" or "barbaric".

Mark Mazower's Dark Continent is a good summary of where historians are at on the 20th century.

> There's a reason the Scots have their own recognised weapons and armour, whereas the most of the rest of Europe used the same European weapons and armour and the clothing was relatively similar.

Tbh that's mostly a misconception. Before their big row with English during the reign of Edward I they were very similar societies that were converging. Both were mostly English speaking peoples ruled by Norman nobles. They wore the same armor and fought in the same fashion, with some differences because the Scots were substantially less well off. After Robert the Bruce, one of those Norman nobles, established them as an independent state we do see some changes, but kilts and claymores come even later. It was more of a consciously built cultural identity than remnants of ancient barbarism.

Yeah they "bought" it, but lets face it.. they were going to take it regardless. I think NYC island was bought for $24 or something like that though. Also, you're right about the priests but something about forcing god on someone is demonic itself. Where I'm from (NM) priests would work together with the soldiers to act like they has some ethical/moral judgement and speak for human rights. They would mess with our people (pueblo) by having the soldiers gather a group to be executed (often times people of important value to the Native culture), and right before the execution the priest would come from the church and "save" the ones who were about to be killed. Thus creating a false hero of the priest and systematically rule the Natives.

Here's the book on amazon. Doesn't have kindle. It's now on my list of books to buy once they're no longer used for college courses.

Also, there isn't a publicly available pdf, not even on the Gutenberg project; the author of the book isn't listed on the website. People are linking to different books for some strange reason.

The rumours about the camps and what happened there we're spread around all Germany. There's a new book published, a diary from a man living next to Gießen, Friedrich Kellner- almost centre Germany- and even he's writing about the disappearance of the Jews and the rumours about the camps.

It’s mentioned in Dione Lucas’ (Hitler’s personal chef) book “The Gourmet Cooking School Cookbook” https://www.amazon.com/Dione-Gourmet-Cooking-School-Cookbook/dp/0517370611

She worked as a chef at a hotel in Hamburg where Hitler dined fairly often. Of this customer, and her recipe for stuffed squab, she wrote: “I learned this recipe when I worked as a chef before World War II, in one of the large hotels in Hamburg, Germany. I do not mean to spoil your appetite for stuffed squab, but you might be interested to know that it was a great favorite of Mr. Hitler , who dined at the hotel often. Let us not hold that against a fine recipe, though.”

Tear gas canisters get very hot and can cause fires in some circumstances. That's why you see rioters and protesters use oven mits and tools like lacrosse sticks to throw them back at police. That's not what happened at Waco though.

That's not what the recordings say. Even if it was though, that wouldn't delete the rest of the evidence. Tear gas is not flammable, the fires started deep in the compound, survivor testimony says the cultists started the fires, and there was no sudden explosion as would be expected if flammable gas mixed with oxygen spread until it met an ignition source.

But the nail in the coffin that proves you're not just wrong but making things up wholesale is that day's weather. No one was heating fires on an 80 degree day in a compound with no chimneys.

Ya'll ignoring the Celtic/Welsh influence like it didn't do anything.

First chapter of Friedman's book talks about a Polynesian tribe that used giant stone wheels as currency and walks through the absurdity of the mechanics of that economy. How the Imperial Germans, when they occupied the island, spurred the islanders to action by painting the rocks with black paint as a punishment for non-compliance with their edicts (it worked). How the tribe developed basically a system of credit that no longer required physical ownership or the moving of the heavy wheels.

Then he turns it around and points out that the paper money and credit economy is basically the same thing.

People will always find a medium of exchange. Gold served perfectly for thousands of years because it was malleable (coinable), rare, you could not fake it (Archimedes solved that), and to a certain degree useful as jewelry. Still is useful as a store of value in that respect, but if you have a responsible money supply (which we've more or less had since 1982), money functions the same as gold

Prevail: The Inspiring Story of Ethiopia's Victory Over Mussolini's Invasion, 1935-1941

Fascinating bit of history that got forgotten because of WW2 starting right after. The whole world was invested and watching and now it seems it's barely remembered.

Also talks about Mussolini's Italy, and their atrocities in Libya and Addis Ababa.

Also the war took place before Germany and Italy allied, and they were still uneasy rivals, so Hitler smuggled in modern weapons to help the Ethiopians. Which was more direct assistance than literally any other nation of the time.

You might be interested to know that there's very little evidence that 3 of the 5 were prostitutes at all. They were actually just women who fell on hard times and ended up sleeping rough, where they were of course vulnerable. They were falsely labelled as prostitutes because their bodies were found on the streets, and because of the sexism of the time, and people just kinda ran with it. An historian called Hallie Rubenhold has written a fantastic book on the subject called The Five: The Untold Stories of the Women Killed by Jack the Ripper. She goes into the women's stories in detail and attempts to correct the false assumption that's been made about them.

I read a book by the late Tad Szulc, the NYT's Cuba correspondent until his death in 2001 that seems to show otherwise. This author is quite authoritative on the topic - he was the first journalist to document the Bay of Pigs invasion. He also personally knew Castro and the two were even friendly.

> our modern economy has 20 million people die of preventable means per year

You say this like it's a good thing, but it's well documented that we have food for 10 billion people 1 2. So 20 million people are needlessly dying due to Capitalism. That is not a good thing, no matter how you spin it.

Solid read here that discusses the subject: https://www.amazon.com/General-Lees-Army-Victory-Collapse/dp/1416596976/ref=sr_1_1?s=books&ie=UTF8&qid=1502222994&sr=1-1&keywords=general+lee%27s+army

Of troops who volunteered in 1861 roughly 10% personally owned a slave. An additional 15% had someone within their family who owned a slave while they personally did not.

Mark Sullivan's Beneath a Scarlet Sky is a great book about this mad lad, highly recommend reading it.

He also wrote a book, https://www.amazon.co.uk/Cod-Wars-How-Lose-Them/dp/0905470060

"Cod wars and how to lose them" this guys deserves props indeed. He was like a real life Monty Python.

'In a 2001 study by economist Steven Rosefielde, he calculated that there were 3.4 million premature Russian deaths in Russia from 1990-98, which he blames partly on the (capitalist) "shock therapy" that came with the Washington Consensus.'

You are aware that Belgium, Britain, France, and the US also had concentration camps right? I grew up in Germany and the USA. Only one of these countries recognizes their crimes in their schools and history books. Can you name any US concentration camps, whether for Japanese Americans, Cubans, or Filipinos? I cannot talk about the past in terms of facts in the United States without risking finding someone to shout down facts with jingoistic patriotism. We know Hitler took inspiration from American and Ottoman purges of Native Americans, Armenians, because he said so.

Comparing evil is difficult. Is a calculating evil worse than a chaotic evil? Does death and suffering count? Do we compare absolute numbers, or length of time? The Nazis are bad, and they were in power for 12 years, and killed millions of people. The US enslaved, murdered, and terrorized millions for centuries. I don't feel the need to say the US is worse than Nazi Germany: Apples and Oranges are both fruit, but are very different. But your point seems to be that, if the United States is an Orange and Germany is an Apple, you take issue with the United States also being sweet like Germany, when they're both fruit

This was my history book, in the chapter on World War 1 there was a paragraph on the 1916 rising and how it showed Britain's justification of the war "so small nations might be free" (referring to Belgium) as very hypocritical. That was it.

Genghis Khan and the Making of the Making of the Modern World

I amazingly flipped through the book right to the right page, I have no idea how I did it.

"In their new effort to be as un-chinese as possible, the mongols dropped the traditional evenhanded approach to diverse religion and granted ever more favor and power to Buddhism, particularly to its Tibetan variation, which contrasted most strongly with the Confucian ideals of the Chinese. Unable to criticize their mongol rulers directly, the Chinese people turned much of their hatred toward the foreigners who helped the mongol administer their empire. The Tibetan Buddhist monks in particular became the object of hatred, since local people along the newly opened Mongol route to Tibet carried the obligations not merely of feeding, housing, and transporting the monks, but of carrying their goods for them as well. The monks, often armed, acquired a terrible reputation for abusing people who served them. The Bureau of Buddhist and Tibetan Affairs strongly defended the monks at court and imposed a host of special rights for them. At one point the bureau tried to enforce laws that stipulated that anyone who hit a monk would have his hand cut off, or that anyone who insulted or defamed a monk, if convicted, could have his tongue cut out. The Mongol officials eventually overturned these laws as incompatible with Mongol rule, which forbade the use of body mutilation as a punishment."

Perhaps torture is a strong word, but not far off. The writing is a bit vague over if/how long the law was active, but it is the thought that counts lol

That was the first serious history book I loved. The rise in particular is amazing as a primary source, as Shirer was a journalist in Austria before and after the Anschluss. Just don’t put too much stock in what he has to say about teutons.

Also, my French exchange student just about had a conniption when he saw the swastika on the spine on my bookshelf.

Edit: while I’m here I’m going to recommend my current favorite history of WWII, The Wages of Destruction by Adam Tooze. I’ve never found economics so fascinating, or been more thoroughly convinced that Speer should’ve hanged.

I don't have anything on hand, it's more like a loose collection of little things I've read. Like the following:

1) Hebrew was a Canaanite language, and biblical figures had Hebrew (Canaanite) names even before supposedly settling in Canaan.

2) Pagan religious texts have been unearthed in Ugarit which are too close to Judaism to be a coincidence.

3) Some old parts of the Tanakh show signs of polytheism, like the claim that the most high god dealt out nations to his sons, and sat at the head of a god council. There's a lot more than just that.

I found a book while writing this post. I can't vouch for it because I've never read it.

Because as the German Wermacht (standard army) expanded east fighting the russians & allies, special dedicated einsatzgruppen ("operational groups", part of the Shutzstaffel / SS) came behind and exterminated targeted groups such as Jews, slavs, Roma, partisans, ect through "actions".

This is actually how a large portion, if not a majority, of holocaust victims died. It's also where you get the most uncertainty in the exact figures of the holocaust, because even though the germans are solid record keepers, they did a whole lot of murdering and dumping into unmarked mass graves in eastern europe.

To read first hand accounts from German einsatzgruppen members and their victims, get a copy of The Good Old Days.

They were actually able to debate the issue in parliament, but parliament ignored them. And it was a combination of taxation without representation and ridiculous taxes on a few key items. The molasses act for example put a tax on molasses. Increasing the price from 3 pence to 9 pence. Then the sugar act came along and lowered that tax, but they increased enforcement since people started to smuggle the goods. This is what got people irate, since these taxes where going to price the colonies out of the market entirely. Them you have the other taxes like the stamp act, townshend act and finally the Tea tax. To the american people, these taxes did not seem fair (especially without representation) since they where not to collect revenue, but to control the trade between the colonies and other areas. Up until the Tea act, all of them where repealed then replaced with the next one trying to control the unruly people in the colonies. The tea act was also eventually repealed, but only during the revolution itself. I got this information mainly from The Glorious Cause, which I have not finished yet BTW, so i might be missing some stuff.

No their goal was to exterminate the slavic populations, nazis felt the baltic people equal to the Aryans since our close relation to the Prussians even sharing same language branch, so no it was not their goal to exterminate us, no matter that fact they were horrible to the native population, aspecialy while retreating, massive atrocities were committed, but what the russians did when they came was even worst, google russification, milions of lithuanians latvians and Estonians were shiped off to syberian gulags, in return milions of russians were shipped to the baltic states to assimilate with the native population and eradicate us from existence, that was extermination, and i can say proudly that my family survived a genocide, https://www.amazon.com/Stolen-Youth-Homeland/dp/9986392330 read this book if you want to edicate yourself about the atrocities committed by the soviets, about children not younger then 10 having to dig graves with their own hands for they parents...

> acc to most of the neutral historian ww2 was inevitable cuz Germany wasn't able to pay those fines and allies weren't compromising

That’s actually not really the consensus view these days. That idea sprang from the “stabbed in the back” myth that Nazis used to gain public support.

> In effect, except for a few billion “in kind” payments, Germany paid no war reparations out of its own pocket. What “everyone knows” about Germany being crippled by war reparations therefore is a myth. French economist Etienne Mantoux surely was right when he wrote, “Germany was not unable to pay reparations, it was unwilling to pay them.”

It’s the German version of the “Lost Cause” myth, and it’s every bit as wrong.

Fascism rose because racism was rampant and German culture was insanely militaristic. Most Germans didn’t believe they’d actually lost the war, since it was never fought on German soil. So conspiracy theories sprang up immediately and were fed by German Generals embarrassed at their defeat.

Basically imagine the QAnon idiots actually managed to get control of the government.

For those that don't know, he wrote a book named "On the Jews and their Lies".

It's actually a really hard book to get a copy of. Amazon just added well translated version in 2018. Before that the only versions available were from antisemitic presses or those groups that print and sell old un-copyrighted versions of text from the 19th century.

The significance of the is book is that it is evidence that Nazism wasn't an aberration. Antisemitism in Germany had a long history. And antisemitism is built into Christianity no matter how much post-World War 2 Christians try to hide that fact. I am saying that as a Catholic mind you.

“Frankie Boyle’s Tour of Scotland”. It’s not a history doc per se, but he does discuss the history and culture of Scotland among other things (politics, gangs, social stuff, etc.). It’s on iPlayer right now if you’re in the UK, no idea about a Netflix/Amazon port though.

All of the awful things I've read about the holocaust, the terrifying brutality and monstrosity of Mengele and his ilk.... none of it affected me as badly as this. Seeing the atrocities committed by completely normal, non-nazi men is horrifying. Store clerks, accountants, lumberyard workers. Just regular people who weren't even political slaying their fellow man.

I think this is very bad generalization. Parks can be placed everywhere. Some cities have even terrain advantage. In Prague you can walk from city center outside of Prague almost exclusively in parks and forests. But that's because Prague is hilly and most of those places for parks are not suitable for buildings anyway.

The Chief Culprit: Stalin's Grand Design to Start World War II https://www.amazon.com/dp/1591148065/ref=cm_sw_r_cp_api_glt_fabc_9V8V33EEAZHKVE6Z2B4V

There are a couple of interesting books regarding the latest discoveries in the American continents:

1491 toches the population topic for example https://www.amazon.com/1491-Revelations-Americas-Before-Columbus/dp/1400032059

This book is relevant only to the Spanish Conquest of the Americas, but it’s called Seven Myths of the Spanish Conquest and the author explains that guns weren’t really a defining factor and rather swords and armor changed combat methods greatly for Indigenous groups.

I'd actually forgotten about it for a while until this thread, but I remember reading in this book this book that enlightenment era fortifications remained surprisingly effective in WWI.

If anyone is interested this is a super interesting book on prisoner of war camps in Minnesota

Ever heard a book called “Storm before the Storm” by mike Duncan? It is about the Roman republic turning into Roman Empire

HOLY SHIT FINALLY!!

My History Prof— Dr. Ronald Johnson wrote this book: Diplomacy in Black and White: John Adams, Toussaint Louverture, and Their Atlantic World Alliance —Race in the Atlantic World, 1700-1900 He was by far my favorite, most down to fucking Earth, awesome professor. First class I made an A in. He was a diplomat to Luxembourg appointed by Obama, he was an analyst for the CIA, he's one genuinely incredible man.

This book hits a LOT of Toussaint Louverture. It is an incredible read and very short.

Disclaimer: Yes I took his course, he was the only Prof I'd go to see speak in the business school or any other because he's a fascinating and insightful man.

If you're at all interested in this period of history, I recommend reading this book!

Amazon Link since I broke it somehow

Also shout-out to Texas State's History Dept being the tits.

/u/theboonofboonville gives some good suggestions, but if those books are too dense for you then I'd recommend Thermopylae 480 BC: The Most Unequal Battle in History, by Dimitris Belezos as a starter for the battle of Thermopylae. It's got a lot of background information on the war, full color maps detailing the battle itself and illustrations of the actual soldiers and their equipment.

Beyond Thermopylae, I'd suggest The Greco-Persian Wars/The Year of Salamis by Peter Green. This book goes into great depth on the both the military and political sides of the war. The author gives the Persians some good treatment too: he goes into the strategic challenges faced by Xerxes and refrains from painting him in the buffoonish light that Xerxes is commonly depicted in (a lot of authors tend to heavily favor the Greeks)

I'm by no means an expert here, these are just some books that I enjoyed reading several years ago Additionally, if you're interested in learning more about the governmental structures of Athens and Sparta, Historia Civilis on youtube has some good videos on them, and on Alexander and Phillip of Macedon and their military campaigns.

Edit: typo

This article should provide a more detailed account. If it's locked behind the paywall then I recommend reading A Portrait of Robert E. Lee Through His Private Letters as to see his overall general views of slavery and more about the court fiasco.

I can't recall if it was from this book or this one, sorry...

I can't recall if it was from this book or this one

So it happened before 1000

The author is correct, but I might be wrong about the work.

https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&source=web&rct=j&url=https://www.amazon.com/Major-Problems-History-World-War/dp/0618061320&ved=2ahUKEwj0gJ73ofz7AhWlkmoFHYtfCOkQFnoECBQQAQ&usg=AOvVaw26ZVkvALuoNHEd1Lry2Y7U

Maybe there's a public lecture over the same topic. I'm am not flipping the war on its head, Im only saying that weather effects everyone. Particularly offensives. Was the harsh winter in 41 brutal, of course. But the Russians had to perform offensives in the same winter.

Lots of different takes on whether or not the tale of Sodom and Gomorrah actually condemns homosexuality or just male-on-male rape. Seems to be some takes that there are gay characters within Abrahamic writings.

Highly recommend this book by Caroline Alexander. Excellent writing and gorgeous book all around with the Hurley photos.

She subsequently wrote a book about Bligh and the Bounty.

Off and on topic:

If you are a reader, I recommend Napoleon: A Life -Andrew Roberts (Author)

NERD TAILS: I was at the library and this new book (Two Copies) came in, so I was thinking if they got two it must be good. So I looked it up online. I never knew much about Napoleon.

A few years ago I realized I knew nothing about World War One. I read World War S.L.-Marshall (Author) which is one of the top books about world war one. I'd recommend that too, which I also had no interest at all until I stumbled onto this book.

I think if one looks around the latter book could be found by free pdf bc it is pretty old, but the guy was actually proximal, contemporary or both.

Alright. But how do we take the other nationalists into account ? Tell me, What did Gandhi add to the the Nationalist movement other than a figure head and the 'Satyagrah' ideology?

Let's objectively view what are the important reasons nations form -

1) Common national identity - India as a unified nation had already been thought about but many contemporary thinkers and Freedome Fighters. Abanindranath Tagore (Not Rabindranath Tagore, He is a different figure), Created some of the first Imagery and Dialogue regarding India or 'Bharat Mata' as he coined the term. This occured in 1906, 8 years before Gandhi's debute in India. Multiple other parties that were not the Indian National Congress had also been formed for the sole purpose of freeing India. Boses, Revolutionary party, Bhagat Singh's Socialist Part and AIML along with Hindu Mahasabha. Clearly Gandhi did not introduce Nationhood to India and nor was the INC the only party working for freedom.

2) Common culture - India has had far more than enough common culture in society. As I believe you are a fellow Indian, I don't think you need to be informed of how India is a cultural behemoth that is both individually distinct and largely unified.

3) National purpose - Nations form around the ideas of national purposes, early nationalism like that found in France during the French Revolution, Revolved around shared cultural, Ethinic and Histories. Middle Nationalist movements like the German unification lay around both cultural and ethinic ideas. By the time nationalism developed into a stable and reputable ideology, It was well agreed upon that Nations above all require a purpose for existence that unites it.

The funny thing is they ended up deleting like half the movie again after this anyway because it was rubbish. John Lasseter and Lee Unkrich had to come in and fix the story and all the animators worked round the clock to get the film basically redone in like 12 months. Pretty crazy - full story here for those interested.

Why this 2019 Nobel physics winner says we should stop calling it a ‘Big Bang’

You've got David Glantz, which is the best and most credible historian on the Eastern Front mention this in his book When Titans Clashed: How the Red Army Stopped Hitler:

> If the Western Allies had not provided equipment and invaded northwest Europe [our emphasis], Stalin and his commanders might have taken twelve to eighteen months longer to finish off the Wehrmacht

Let's also remember that the bulk of the Lend-Lease supplies were sent AFTER the very crucial battles of Moscow and Stalingrad. Glantz views Moscow as the pivotal point of the Eastern Front, where the German offensive capability has been seriously diminished and the war is not actually winnable anymore.

You use one of these, but bigger.

Met the author who wrote this book.

Great book to read about Chile's first years under Pinochet through the assassination of a former Ambassador under Allende.

Hard to believe but apparently it was real.

Wikipedia ? I could tell ur uneducated by ur statements, thanks for proving it. Wikipedia is no source.

I can recommend you some actual source from historians and researcher(German/Austrian)

„Habsburg schmutziger Krieg“

https://www.amazon.de/Habsburgs-schmutziger-Krieg-österreichisch-ungarischen-Kriegsführung/dp/3701732000

Goes very much into the details, with a lot of statements from the diplomats at the time and more importantly, it’s based on actual research.

Wrong! That meme is what Hitler would have chosen, suicide. The same Evil Spirit as the spirit of Judas Iscariot the betrayer of Jesus Christ.

Temperance the 9th gift of the holy spirit is what you failed to do or express properly.

OP is 100% accurate. Hitler was inspired by Jim Crow. There is a book all about this and the general history of racism in America and just how deep it goes. Very enlightening book. https://www.amazon.com/Caste-Origins-Discontents-Isabel-Wilkerson-ebook/dp/B084FLWDQG
