An eye-opening account of how violence was experienced not just on the frontlines of colonial terror but at home in imperial Britain. When uprisings against colonial rule broke out across the world after 1945, Britain responded with overwhelming and brutal force. Although this period has conventionally been dubbed "postwar," it was punctuated by a succession of hard-fought, long-running conflicts that were geographically diffuse, morally ambiguous, and impervious to neat endings or declarations of victory.

В книге охвачен исторический период с первой трети XIX века до 1991 года, когда Российская империя, а затем и СССР твёрдо и уверенно утверждали своё военно-политическое присутствие на южных границах страны. Слаженные и концентрированные усилия дипломатических, военных и разведывательных государственных структур позволили надёжно обеспечить соблюдение интересов национальной безопасности России и Советского Союза в Среднеазиатском регионе и в Афганистане на основе соблюдения принципов международного права и уважения суверенитета сопредельного государства.

The Tragedy of Patton: A Soldier's Date With Destiny asks the question: Why was General Patton silenced during his service in World War II? Prevented from receiving needed supplies that would have ended the war nine months earlier, freed the death camps, prevented Russian invasion of the Eastern Bloc, and Stalin's murderous rampage.

How did a band of nomadic herdsmen achieve so much, so fast? Despite these stunning achievements, many writers dismiss the Mongols as just ferocious barbarians. This bestselling book sets the record straight.
