Roman Cavalry Tactics - M.C. Bishop

A fully illustrated study of the Roman cavalry s evolution, this fascinating book chronicles tactics and composition from the time of the Republic to the fall of the Dominate.The cavalry â ˜wingsâ ™ that probed ahead of the Roman Army played a key role in its campaigns of conquest, masking its marching flanks and seeking to encircle enemies in battle. However, the original small cavalry arm provided by the citizen nobility had proved inadequate before the end of the Republic, and Julius Caesarâ ™s cavalry was largely made up of hired allies. During the Early Principate, the armies under Augustus continued in this vein, incorporating large numbers of non-citizen auxiliary cavalry units. The provinces came under increasing attack throughout and following the chaotic mid-3rd century, and Rome took lessons from its â ˜barbarianâ ™ enemies in how to improve its military mobility, adopting both new, heavily armoured shock cavalry and horse-archers, and vitally shaping the tactics employed during the Dominate.In this engaging study, Roman Army expert M.C. Bishop charts how the cavalry grew to become the dominant force in Roman field armies by the twilight of the Western Empire. Eight newly commissioned artwork plates and a rich selection of artefact photographs and archaeological sources provide vivid detail and insight, helping to bring to the life the evolving tactics, clothing and weaponry of Romeâ ™s cavalry from the 2nd century BC through to the 5th century AD.

Late Roman Combat Tactics - Ilkka Syvanne

Late Roman Combat Tactics by Dr. Ilkka Syvänne is essential reading for anyone seeking to understand land combat in the period from the Tetrarchy to the death of Heraclius, a period when the Romans faced serious and growing military threats on many fronts. The author⠙s detailed analysis provides the reader with a complete understanding of the combat equipment worn by the soldiers, types of troops, tactics, different unit orders and formations used by the late Romans and their enemies. Importantly, he lays out the developments and changes in these aspects across this critical period, assessing how the Romans adapted, or failed to adapt to the varied and changing array of enemies, such as Persians, Avars and Arabs. The discussion examines how the Romans fought at every level, so that it covers everything from the individual fighting techniques all the way up to the conduct of large-scale pitched battles. There is an immense amount of technical detail but the human element and the experience of the officers and ordinary soldiers is not forgotten, with such factors as morale and the psychology of battle (the ⠘face of battle⠙) given due consideration. The thoroughly researched text is well supported by dozens of diagrams and illustrations. A thoroughly illuminating read on its own, Late Roman Combat Tactics is also the perfect companion to Dr Syvänne⠙s eight-volume Military History of Late Rome.

Roman Infantry Helmets - M.C. Bishop

This study investigates the development, manufacture, decoration and use of the Roman infantry helmet, a vital piece of personal protection equipment of both legionary and auxiliary troops. The protective headgear worn by Roman foot soldiers of the Republican period was adopted directly from the Etruscans, who had in turn adapted helmets from neighbouring European cultures within and beyond the Italian peninsula. In this study, a renowned authority explains how its form remained largely unchanged until the Late Republic, when contact and conflict with a wider variety of cultures introduced new influences. The dynamic forces at work during civil wars and transition from the Republic to the Principate at the end of the 1st century BC saw a whole range of types introduced which then evolved until new influences prompted further changes. M.C. Bishop shows how this culminated in contact with Eastern cultures leading to completely new types being introduced, which simplified manufacture and led to a variety of post-Roman helmet types. Many new finds have ensured that much has changed in the narrative of Roman helmets in recent scholarship and the time is ripe for this accessible examination of the development, manufacture and use of the Roman infantry helmet. The text is complemented by carefully chosen illustrations, many in colour, and eight plates of specially commissioned artwork.

Silent Cavalry - Howell Raines

A Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist reveals the little-known story of the Union soldiers from Alabama who played a decisive role in the Civil War, and how they were scrubbed from the history books.“It is my sincere hope that this compelling and submerged history is integrated into our understanding of our nation, and allows us to embrace new heroes of the past.”—Imani Perry, professor, Harvard University, and National Book Award–winning author of South to AmericaWe all know how the Civil War was won: Courageous Yankees triumphed over the South. But is there more to the story?As Pulitzer Prize–winning journalist Howell Raines shows, it was not only soldiers from northern states who helped General William Tecumseh Sherman burn Atlanta to the ground but also an unsung regiment of 2,066 Alabamian yeoman farmers—including at least one member of Raines’s own family.Called the First Alabama Cavalry, U.S.A., this regiment of mountain Unionists, which included sixteen formerly enslaved Black men, was the point of the spear that Sherman drove through the heart of the Confederacy. The famed general hailed their skills and courage. So why don’t we know anything about them?Silent Cavalry is part epic American history, part family saga, and part scholarly detective story. Drawing on the lore of his native Alabama and investigative skills honed by six decades in journalism, Raines brings to light a conspiracy that sought to undermine the accomplishments of these renegade southerners—a key component of the Lost Cause effort to restore glory to white southerners after the war, even at the cost of the truth.In this important new contribution to our understanding of the Civil War and its legacy, Raines tells the thrilling tale of the formation of the First Alabama while exposing the tangled web of how its wartime accomplishments were silenced, implicating everyone from a former Confederate general to a gaggle of Lost Cause historians in the Ivy League and a sanctimonious former keeper of the Alabama state archives. By reversing the erasure of the First Alabama, Silent Cavalry is a testament to the immense power of historians to destroy as well as to redeem.

Red Cavalry and Other Stories - Isaac Babel

Throughout his life Isaac Babel was torn by opposing forces, by the desire both to remain faithful to his Jewish roots and yet to be free of them. This duality of vision infuses his work with a powerful energy from the earliest tales including Old Shloyme and Childhood , which affirm his Russian-Jewish childhood, to the relatively non-Jewish world of his collection of stories entitled Red Cavalry . Babel s masterpiece, Red Cavalry is the most dramatic expression of his dualism and in his simultaneous acceptance and rejection of his heritage heralds the great American-Jewish writers from Henry Roth to Saul Bellow and Philip Roth.

Poems - Elizabeth Bishop

This is the definitive centenary edition of the work of one of America s greatest poets, recognised today as a master of her art and acclaimed by poets and readers alike. Her poems display honesty and humour, grief and acceptance, observing nature and human nature with painstaking accuracy. They often start outwardly, with geography and landscape - from New England and Nova Scotia, where Bishop grew up, to Florida and Brazil, where she later lived - and move inexorably toward the interior, exploring questions of knowledge and perception, love and solitude, and the ability or inability of form to control chaos.This new edition, edited by Saskia Hamilton, includes Bishop s four published volumes (North South, A Cold Spring, Questions of Travel and Geography III), as well as uncollected poems, translations and an illuminating selection of unpublished manuscript poems, reproduced in facsimile, revealing exactly how finished, or unfinished, Bishop left them. It offers readers the opportunity to enjoy the complete poems of one of the most distinguished American poets of the twentieth century.

Lost Moray and Nairn - Bruce Bishop

In Lost Moray and Nairn, Bruce Bishop traces what has been lost from the old counties of Moray and Nairn, both architecturally and socially. Packed with illustrations of places, buildings and of aspects of life which are now vanished, and containing a history of various elements of life in the area, Bishop illustrates changes in the way of life of the people of the Burghs of Nairn, Forres and Elgin, and in the smaller towns and villages. The effect of these lost elements on the coastal towns is also discussed, with particular focus placed on the demise of the ports of Findhorn, Nairn and Garmouth, and the more recent decline in the fishing industry.His journey trough the region takes him from prehistory to the present day, and examines everything from geology, architecture, agriculture, industry, to communications. Lost Moray and Nairn is an important, illuminating and compelling account and a worthy addition to the Birlinn series.

The Church of Living Dangerously - John Lee Bishop

The unbelievable true story of John Bishop, a former megachurch pastor who ended up running drugs for the Sinaloa Cartel.For thirty years, John Bishop was a pastor. Along the way, he learned that everyone does stupid things. We lie to our families. We lie to ourselves. We take long lunch breaks and sneak cigarettes when we said we’d quit. Sometimes, we take a sabbatical from our nice, comfortable life as a pastor and start running drugs for the Sinaloa Cartel, then get caught and spend five years in federal prison.Okay, that last one might just apply to John. But it does make for one hell of a story.In The Church of Living Dangerously, John tells that story in full for the first time—and you don’t know the half of it. Along the way, he brings readers along for the harrowing ride from the rough small town in Washington where he was born all the way to the dirty villages in Mexico where he fell in with some of the most dangerous criminals on the planet. There are backyard fight clubs where John learned to take a punch, the abandoned K-Mart where he used to preach every Sunday (sometimes with the help of wild animals), and the drug dens where he almost lost his life ten times over. It’s a story that seems too wild to be true. But it is true—and John has the scars, both literal and figurative, to prove it.Ride along with John as he gets arrested at the U.S.-Mexico border and learn the story of his life in all its rough, stupid glory of guns, drugs, tigers, bare-knuckle boxing matches, and prison riots. John has learned a lot of important lessons about hardship and redemption and family, and what it means to live dangerously—and to experience another chance at life.

American Civil War Amphibious Tactics - Ron Field

Reveals the tactics, technologies, and specially raised units at the heart of the Unionâ ™s conduct of combined operations in the American Civil War.During the Civil War, as well as confronting the Confederates on land, the Union forces mounted several ambitious amphibious operations, both on the coast and along the banks of the great rivers. In this book, renowned historian Ron Field explains how the growing effectiveness of the Union Navy, the willingness of the Union Army to countenance combined operations, and the efforts of officers such as Ambrose Burnside, David Farragut, and John Dahlgren, ensured that amphibious warfare played a key part in the defeat of the South.In May 1862, foreshadowed by the capture of Roanoke Island and New Bern in North Carolina and Island Number Ten on the Mississippi River, the Union forcesâ ™ use of combined operations to seize New Orleans dealt a major blow to the Confederacy. The potential of amphibious warfare was revealed by the Union efforts to capture Fort Fisher in North Carolina. While the initial attempt failed in December 1864, a renewed effort in January 1865 resulted in a Union victory. Fully illustrated, this study investigates the amphibious tactics and technologies adopted by the Union forces during the Civil War, and the units raised and equipped to conduct combined operations.

Odse*te se - Gary John Bishop - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Jak se vyhrabat z ... řekněme nepříjemných životních situací Měli jste někdy pocit, že běháte jako křeček v kolotoči, zoufale si razíte cestu životem, ale nikdy se nikam nedostanete? Audiokniha má vulgární název, ale nenechte se mýlit. Berte ji se vší vážností. Gary Bishop v ní rozpracoval základní principy osobního rozvoje, jejich mechanismy a podstatu. Rozhodně není sluníčkovým návodem pozitivního myšlení. Je však užitečným pomocníkem pro poražené a rezignované. A na rovinu popisuje, jak se zbavit všech špatných návyků, které nás zdržují od života, který si zasloužíme. „Toto je slovní políček od vesmíru, abyste si uvědomili svůj skutečný potenciál, přestali sami se sebou vyjebávat a s plnou okázalostí konečně začali žít svůj život.“ Manifest skutečné životní změny a probuzení našeho JÁ Ohromné množství času strávíme v rozhovorech sami se sebou. Pozitivní samomluva dokáže výrazně změnit náladu, posílit sebedůvěru, zvýšit produktivitu a ještě více. Mnohem více. Bohužel i naopak. Nejsou to cizí lidé, kteří nám stojí v cestě. Nejsou to ani tvrzení, která nás brzdí ve schopnosti prosperovat. Jsme to my a negativní vnitřní hlas, který k tomu přesvědčuje. Audiokniha je určena těm, kteří vedou své vnitřní monology plné pochybností a úskoků, čímž znehodnocují svůj každodenní život. Je pro ty, kteří tuší, že nestačí jen přemýšlet, ale je potřeba začít jednat. Jen si tak úplně nejsou jisti, jakým se vydat směrem. Uchopitelné myšlenky vám pomůžou odstranit, co vás brzdí a jak to nahradit tím, co vám pomůže. „Nechám to na později“ – ne, udělejte to hned. „Na to nejsem dost chytrý“ – kašlete na to. Přestaňte do blba opakovat tuhle hovadinu a jednejte. Nedovolte mysli, aby vám i nadále vládla. Nedovolte jí, aby vás držela zpátky pomocí svých výmluv, rozptylováním a starostmi. Nejste svými myšlenkami. Jste svými činy. Jste tím, co děláte. A vaše skutky jsou to jediné, co vám pomůže posunout se z místa, kde jste, tam, kde chcete být. Nejde o to chytit šanci za pačesy – jde o to chápat se příležitosti naskýtající se každičkým okamžikem, hodinou, týdnem, měsícem. Jde o to chopit se svého podělaného života a zasadit se sám o sebe, jako by vám šlo život. Protože faktem je, že vám o život skutečně jde.

Láska ku*evská - Gary John Bishop - audiokniha

Audiokniha: Od autora světového bestselleru Odse*te se přichází další audiokniha, tentokrát na téma vztahy a láska. Co stojí za úspěšným a dlouhodobým vztahem? „Láska je trpělivá, láska je slepá. . .“ Dokud není. A pak co? Bez ohledu na to, kolik rad dostaneme nebo jak moc na sobě zapracujeme, nevidíte ve svých vztazích žádnou změnu? Pravdou je, že jste žalostně špatně vybaveni na jednu z věcí, které nejvíce určují váš život – bytí v oddaném vztahu. Ať už v jednom jste, chcete být, jste napůl v a napůl mimo, jeden překonáváte, jste ženatí, svobodní, rozvedení, nebo jste prostě celou tou věcí zavaleni, pojďte společně s autorem, jež si nebere servítky proplout vztahovým bahnem a poslechnout si rady, které vás dostanou zpátky do sedla. Žádné květnaté bláboly, žádné mystické strategie, systémy nebo techniky, jen real talk pro skutečné lidi, kteří chtějí ve svém životě skutečný vztah, jež opravdu funguje. O knize řekli: „Povinná četba plná strategických rad, jak mít trvalé a naplňující vztahy. Pokud jste single, tato kniha je pro vás. Pokud jste v oddaném vztahu, tato kniha je pro vás. Pokud jste rozvedení, tato kniha je pro vás. Jednoduše řečeno, vaše lepší já čeká. — Men’s Journal. „Autor bestsellerů New York Times Gary John Bishop tvrdě miluje to, co dělá vztahy fungujícími, a ukazuje, jak se ponořit hlouběji, když nastanou problémy.“ — US Weekly. Zdroj recenzí Amazon.com Z audioknihy: Je přirozené, že se podvědomě snažíme opravit sami sebe tím, že navážeme vztah s další osobou, která se zdánlivě postará o naše evidentní nedostatky. Ale to je jen půlka příběhu. Správně, bude ještě hůř! Co si myslíte, že na vás uchvátilo vašeho partnera a přimělo ho vybrat si právě vás? Vaše oči? Váš zadek? Váš okouzlující úsměv nebo fascinující konverzace? Co třeba vaše práce nebo zůstatek na účtu? Uznávám, možná to bylo něco z toho, ale co když jen udělali to samé, co vy? Co když jsou podvědomě přitahováni tím, že ve vás vidí odpověď na svou vlastní vnitřní hádanku? Tak jo, začneme tímhle. Uvědomte si, že to, čemu věříte a co si říkáte, má skutečnou moc. A že v konečném důsledku váš názor o sobě, o ostatních, o životě, o naprosto čemkoli je první překážkou, která vám brání vytvořit něco skutečně jedinečného a úžasného v jakékoli oblasti vašeho života, ne jen v téhle jediné. Radši máte pravdu, než abyste milovali. Musíme se za tuhle překážku dostat. Dobrý vztah zlepšuje a obohacuje naše životy, je to sdílená zkušenost, ale zároveň je velice osobní. Že vám to nejde dohromady? Pořád to děláte. Když jdete spolu do restaurace, díváte se spolu na film nebo spolu cvičíte – vlastně kdykoli komunikujete s druhým člověkem či ostatními ve společenském prostředí, něco spolu zažíváte, ale prožíváte to po svém. A to je v podstatě to, co se odehrává ve vztahu.

Lost Badenoch and Strathspey - Bruce Bishop

Badenoch and Strathspey is a land of many contrasts, and in modern times a land of many uses. Not always has it been the playground of winter sports enthusiasts and a mecca for tourists - for centuries the mountains which protected the province of Moray to the north and the Highland glens to the west were an obstacle to travel and a haven for cattle thieves and reivers.In this fascinating book, illustrated with over 100 period photographs, Bruce B. Bishop explores the changing face of the area over millennia, from the Ice Age, Pictish and Celtic times through the coming of Christianity, the Jacobite rebellions, the more leisured Victorian age, and the twentieth century. Being a rural part of the country, Lost Badenoch and Strathspey covers not only lost buildings - churches, castles and other structures in the main settlements of Badenoch and Strathspey, Aberlour, Tomintoul, Grantown-on-Spey, Aviemore, Kingussie, Newtonmore and Dallwhinnie - but also lost ways of life and industry, from droving and fishing to milling, transportation.
