Pompey the Great: The Roman Alexander

Pompey the Great: The Roman Alexander

Analyzes the life of Pompey before and during his civil war with Caesar.

He served in the Sertorian War in Spain (recovering from an early defeat), helped crush Spartacus' revolt, then freed the Eastern Mediterranean from the depredations of Cilician pirates in a matter of weeks. He brought a victorious end to the long-running Third Mithridatic War and brought the whole of Asia Minor, Syria, Lebanon, Jordan, and Judea under Roman influence by a mix of force and diplomacy. There is detailed analysis of the opening moves in Italy, Pompey's victory over Caesar at Dyrrhachium, and the climactic battle at Pharsalus in September 48BC. A defeated Pompey fled and was assassinated, leaving his two sons to carry on the war. $40.00 USD

The Soviet Battle for Berlin 1945 Front

The Soviet Battle for Berlin 1945

In April 1945, the Red Army launched fierce offensives to encircle and assault Berlin amidst desperate German resistance.

They faced some 45,000 soldiers in several severely depleted Wehrmacht and Waffen-SS divisions. These divisions were supplemented by the Berlin Police force, Hitlerjugend, and Volkssturm.
