Paperback. Condition: Near Fine. The Good CD Guide 1993 (1992) ? Christopher Pollard Gramophone | ISBN: 9780902470385 | Condition: Near Fine | Sold by Crappy Old Books Before Spotify playlists, before algorithmic ?Discover Weekly,? before the existential dread of a 10,000-track MP3 folder you never curated?there was the CD . Shiny, circular, mysteriously indestructible until you sneezed near it, and best appreciated with a copy of The Good CD Guide 1993 propped on your knee. Edited by Christopher Pollard and published by Gramophone in 1992, this guide is a glorious time capsule of the digital dawn. Inside you?ll find reviews, recommendations, and the kind of reassuring authority that only critics armed with bow ties, fountain pens, and very strong opinions about Mahler symphonies could provide. From Karajan?s endless Beethoven cycles to obscure chamber recordings of music you didn?t know existed, this book is like a Michelin guide for your hi-fi rack. Why this copy? Condition: Near Fine. Practically pristine, as if it?s been sitting politely on a shelf waiting for its moment to shine again. The pages are crisp, the spine uncreased?clearly treated with the reverence due to a CD-era oracle. Gramophone stamp of approval. If you wanted to know in 1992 which recording of Elgar?s Enigma Variations would impress your neighbour?s golden retriever, this was the book you turned to. From Crappy Old Books. We don?t just flog medieval chronicles and forgotten thrillers; sometimes we rescue reference works that smell faintly of hi-fi shops and velvet listening rooms. Specs at a glance Author/Editor: Christopher Pollard Title: The Good CD Guide 1993 Publisher: Gramophone , 1992 ISBN: 9780902470385 Condition: Near Fine This isn?t just a guide?it?s a backstage pass to the classical music world of the early ?90s, when the compact disc was king and everyone thought ?remastered? meant sonic perfection. Dip in and you?ll hear the faint echo of a hi-fi salesman insisting that your life won?t be complete without a separate DAC. Warning: prolonged browsing may cause sudden urges to reorganise your CD collection alphabetically, or to haunt charity shops in search of a long-deleted Philips box set. .

Illustrated with two sections of black-and-white photographic plates plus black-and-white maps interspersed throughout the volume. "Fascinating.a wonderful and readable historic narrative filled with colorful characters." - Walter Isaacson. "Narrating over thirty centuries of "unconventional" military conflicts, bestselling author and military historian Max Boot has created a work that traces guerrilla warfare and terrorism from antiquity to the present. Challenging the conventional wisdom that irregular warfare is the historical exception, Boot demonstrates that loosely organized partisan or guerilla warfare is the norm, and that it is the clash of conventional, uniformed military forces that is the historical anomaly. Beginning with the first insurgencies in the ancient world, great powers - from Alexander the Great to Imperial Rome - discovered that guerrilla armies were much harder to defeat than regular troops. This was a lesson taught by the nomadic raiders from the Persian highlands, who brought down the first empire on record, in Mesopotamia, and by the relentless Hun raiders who helped bring down the Roman Empire. In the modern era, Boot deftly shows that, despite the proliferation of powerful national armies, guerrilla and terrorist campaigns not only persisted but also reached new heights. A dramatic chapter on the militiamen dubbed the "American hornets" illustrates how the American revolutionaries were the quintessential "unseen enemy," striking and then disappearing into the general population. It was also the Americans who pioneered the use of propaganda to defeat a stronger enemy - a strategy that future insurgents would emulate to fight the United States itself. Boot expands his analysis of liberal revolts to include the Haitian slave uprising led by the "Black Spartacus" Toussaint L'Ouverture, the Greek War of Independence, and the campaign for Italian unification spearheaded by the charismatic Giuseppe Garibaldi. Terrorist campaigns waged in areas like Belle Epoque Paris, tsarist Russia, and the Reconstruction South carry the narrative into the late nineteenth century. Perhaps nowhere is the Invisible Armies narrative more dramatic than in the calamitous twentieth century, when the power of public opinion and the transformatin of guerrillas into celebrities and almost superhuman figures changed the calculus of warfare for both insurgents and their enemies. Men such as the archaeologist-turned-military adviser T.E. Lawrence; Vietnam's General Vo Nguyen Giap, a self-taught soldier who routed the French and then later the Americans from Indochina; and the "Quiet American," Edward Lansdale, form a diverse tapestry of characters, whose personalities and ability to harnass public opinion came to define these conflicts. Effortlessly weaving back and forth through history in a way that contextualizes the guerilla and terrorist challenges of the twenty-first century, Invisible Armies is a definitive work on unconventional warfare, "a must-read for scholars, military and goverment professionals and a fascinating journey for the general public" (General Jack Keane)." - from the inner front and rear jacket flaps. "Sweeping, meticulous, and exceptionally thoughtful. Max Boot's Invisible Armies is an important, compelling contribution to our understanding of how men make war." - Rick Atkinson, Pulitzer Prize-winning author.
