Index des biographies et Index thématique .***************** Présentation éditeur : "" Entre 1975 et 1979, au Cambodge, périssent près de deux millions de personnes, soit un quart de la population, victimes directes et indirectes des autorités du Kampuchea démocratique, plus connu sous le nom de régime des Khmers rouges. L'histoire du mouvement ne s'arrête pas en 1979 : après la chute du régime, la communauté internationale persiste pendant plus de dix ans à le reconnaître comme seule autorité légitime du Cambodge, et les derniers Khmers rouges ne déposent les armes qu'en 1998, année de la mort de Pol Pot. Ce n'est qu'aujourd'hui, plus de trente ans après les faits, que la communauté internationale juge certains responsables. Ce dictionnaire, avec près de 700 entrées et une abondante iconographie, offre les clefs nécessaires au décryptage objectif de cette page noire de l'histoire de l'Humanité. Solomon Kane procède ici à une véritable anatomie du totalitarisme khmer rouge. Ce travail, dans une version révisée, actualisée et plus richement documentée, dissèque les rouages du mouvement, élucide le parcours des protagonistes, cartographie un territoire soumis à la terreur et met au jour les ressorts et les séquelles de cette aventure funeste.

Condition: New. 2 Volume set., 387 & 671 pp. ,9 coloured plates ( of uniform.) 10 other illus.2024 N&MP Reprint of 1832-37 editionPublished Price £35 Ludlow Beamish's classic two-volume History of the King's German Legion, first published between 1832 and 1837, remains one of the essential contemporary histories of this remarkable formation. Drawing extensively upon official records, correspondence and eyewitness testimony, Beamish traces the Legion from its creation in 1803 to its disbandment following the final defeat of Napoleon.The King's German Legion arose directly from the French occupation of Hanover. With the Hanoverian Army dissolved, officers and men escaped to Britain, where George III authorised the formation of German units in British service. What began as an emergency measure rapidly developed into a formidable combined-arms force comprising line and light infantry, cavalry, artillery and engineers. More than 28,000 men passed through its ranks during its existence, and the Legion earned an exceptional reputation for discipline, professionalism and fighting ability.Volume I follows the KGL from its formation through its early expeditions and into the Peninsular War. Beamish records its service at Copenhagen and in the Mediterranean before turning to the campaigns in Portugal and Spain. The Legion's cavalry distinguished itself during Sir John Moore's arduous retreat to Corunna, while its infantry, cavalry and artillery subsequently became a dependable element of Wellington's army. Its soldiers fought at Talavera and Busaco, served behind the Lines of Torres Vedras, and participated in the increasingly hard-fought campaigns that carried the war into 1811.Volume II takes the story through the decisive years of the conflict. The Legion participated in the great campaigns that transformed Wellington's army from a defensive force into one capable of driving the French from the Iberian Peninsula. Beamish covers Ciudad Rodrigo, Badajoz, Salamanca and Vittoria, together with the subsequent advance towards France. Other elements of the Legion fought in northern Germany as Napoleon's European empire began to collapse.The story culminates at Waterloo in 1815. Here the KGL achieved enduring distinction, most famously through Major Georg Baring's 2nd Light Battalion in its desperate defence of La Haye Sainte. Holding this vital position in the centre of Wellington's line against repeated French attacks, the Germans resisted until their ammunition was virtually exhausted.Following Napoleon's defeat and the restoration of Hanover, the King's German Legion was disbanded in 1816, many of its veterans entering the new Hanoverian Army.Beamish's detailed narrative preserves the record of a unique force that fought throughout the Napoleonic Wars. Combining operational history with contemporary evidence and the testimony of those who served, these two volumes remain an invaluable primary source for the King's German Legion and Wellington's campaigns.
