    af Stephen E. Ambrose

    The full story of what led Crazy Horse and Custer to that fateful day at the Little Bighorn, from bestselling historian Stephen E. Ambrose. On the sparkling morning of June 25, 1876, 611 U.S. Army soldiers rode toward the banks of the Little Bighorn in the Montana Territory, where 3,000 Indians stood waiting for battle. The lives of two great warriors would soon be forever linked throughout history: Crazy Horse, leader of the Oglala Sioux, and General George Armstrong Custer of the Seventh Cavalry. Both were men of aggression and supreme courage. Both had become leaders in their societies at very early ages; both had been stripped of power, and in disgrace had worked to earn back the respect of their people. And to both of them, the unspoiled grandeur of the Great Plains of North America was an irresistible challenge. Their parallel lives would pave the way, in a manner unknown to either, for an inevitable clash between two nations fighting for possession of the open prairie.

  • - The Story of the Allied Invasion Told by Those Who Were There
    af Stephen E. Ambrose
    248,95 kr.

    In 1983 the Eisenhower Center at the University of New Orleans began a project to collect on audiotape and videotape the recollections of as many people as possible-civilians as well as soldiers-who were involved in one of the most pivotal events of the century: the June 6, 1944, Allied invasion of Normandy and Hitler's Fortress Europe. Skillfully edited by Ronald J. Drez and first published on the fifty-year anniversary of D-Day, the award-winning Voices of D-Day tells the story of that momentous operation almost entirely through the words of the people who were there. Here are gripping descriptions of tension-filled crossings to Normandy by plane and by sea, and harrowing accounts of the horrors of battle-of planes shot down, ships destroyed, and servicemen killed one after another as they attempted to navigate Normandy Beach. And here, too, are tales of remarkable courage and heroism-of soldiers helping the wounded, and of others persevering in the face of death and prevailing against the longest of odds. Voices of D-Day, told by those who experienced it, makes us feel that we were all there.
