A war does not end when the last of its pitched battles stops raging. Soldiers of the defeated forces face long stays as POWs, the wounded continue to die, parents search doggedly for their missing children, the victors embark on epic missions to hunt down enemy leaders, enduring peace must be made. In Endgame, 1945 acclaimed historian David Stafford fills the gaping hole in our knowledge of World War II, revealing how, for most people, VE Day was merely a brief pause in the action, and that horror and hardship lasted long after the Allies accepted Nazi Germany's unconditional surrender. Drawing upon diaries, letters, personal testimonies, and memoirs, Stafford brilliantly interweaves the lives of ordinary people with the machinations of military and political leaders to trace the elaborate web of events that led to the war's real resolution: the deaths of Hitler and Mussolini, the liberations of Buchenwald and Dachau, and the Allies' race against the Red Army to establish a victor's foothold in Europe. Along the way, we meet remarkable men and women such as Robert Ellis, a young American soldier fighting in Italy who attempts to keep his soul intact amid the brutality of battle; Robert Reid, a middle~aged war correspondent traveling with General George Patton's army; Reginald Roy, a Canadian soldier bravely fighting Nazi holdouts on the Dutch coast; and Francesca Wilson, a relief worker who tries desperately to assuage the suffering that warfare has brought upon the continent. Already hailed by critics as a masterpiece, Endgame, 1945 is narrative history at its most compelling~the riveting story of three turbulent months that shaped the modern world.

By that measure, the essays of Christopher Hitchens are in the first tier. For nearly four decades, Hitchens has been telling us, in pitch~perfect prose, what we confront when we grapple with first principles~the principles of reason and tolerance and skepticism that define and inform the foundations of our civilization ~principles that, to endure, must be defended anew by every generation. "A short list of the greatest living conversationalists in English," said The Economist, "would probably have to include Christopher Hitchens, Sir Patrick Leigh~Fermor, and Sir Tom Stoppard. Great brilliance, fantastic powers of recall, and quick wit are clearly valuable in sustaining conversation at these cosmic levels. Charm may be helpful, too." Hitchens~who staunchly declines all offers of knighthood~ hereby invites you to take a seat at a democratic conversation, to be engaged, and to be reasoned with. His knowledge is formidable, an encyclopedic treasure, and yet one has the feeling, reading him, of hearing a person thinking out loud, following the inexorable logic of his thought, wherever it might lead, unafraid to expose fraudulence, denounce injustice, and excoriate hypocrisy. Legions of readers, admirers and detractors alike, have learned to read Hitchens with something approaching awe at his felicity of language, the oxygen in every sentence, the enviable wit and his readiness, even eagerness, to fight a foe or mount the ramparts. Christopher Hitchens looks with love, loathing, warmth, and authority at a wide range of political and cultural issues, past and present. Astute, vivid, and uninhibited on dozens of famous and not~so~famous writers, Hitchens is a phrasemaker par excellence, with a quiver full of barbed arrows, ready to be unleashed at unsuspecting targets. His fresh perceptions of such figures as varied as Charles Dickens, Karl Marx, Rebecca West, George Orwell, J.G. Ballard, and Philip Larkin are matched in brilliance by his pungent discussions and intrepid observations, gathered from a lifetime of traveling and reporting from such destinations as Iran, China, and Pakistan. Hitchens's directness, elegance, lightly carried erudition, critical and psychological insight, humor, and sympathy~applied as they are here to a dazzling variety of subjects~all set a standard for the essayist that has rarely been matched in our time. What emerges from this indispensable volume is an intellectual selfportrait of a writer with an exemplary steadiness of purpose and a love affair with the delights and seductions of the English language, a man anchored in a profound and humane vision of the human longing for reason and justice.

In the early 1960s, Dallas was brewing with political passions, a city crammed with larger~than~life characters dead~set against the Kennedy presidency. These included rabid warriors like defrocked military general Edwin A. Walker; the world's richest oil baron, H. L. Hunt; the leader of the largest Baptist congregation in the world, W.A. Criswell; and the media mogul Ted Dealey, who raucously confronted JFK and whose family name adorns the plaza where the president was murdered. On the same stage was a compelling cast of marauding gangsters, swashbuckling politicos, unsung civil rights heroes, and a stylish millionaire anxious to save his doomed city. Bill Minutaglio and Steven L. Davis ingeniously explore the swirling forces that led many people to warn President Kennedy to avoid Dallas on his fateful trip to Texas. Breathtakingly paced, DALLAS 1963 presents a clear, cinematic, and revelatory look at the shocking tragedy that transformed America. Countless authors have attempted to explain the assassination, but no one has ever bothered to explain Dallas~until now. With spellbinding storytelling, Minutaglio and Davis lead us through intimate glimpses of the Kennedy family and the machinations of the Kennedy White House, to the obsessed men in Dallas who concocted the climate of hatred that led many to blame the city for the president's death. Here at long last is an accurate understanding of what happened in the weeks and months leading to John F. Kennedy's assassination. DALLAS 1963 is not only a fresh look at a momentous national tragedy but a sobering reminder of how radical, polarizing ideologies can poison a city~and a nation.

In a text that journeys beyond the basic geographical facts, each map becomes a visual record of human endeavor~ of diverse cultural, social, and economic landscapes~and each has a tale of wonder to tell. These maps, in their amazingly various forms, are models of time, diaries of intrigue, and illuminating works of art. Together they provide a unique vision of how the world and our understanding of it have changed over the past several centuries. More than 200 maps, selected from the Geography and Map Division of the Library of Congress ~ the largest cartographic collection in the world ~ are reproduced in this sumptuous volume. Some of the rarest and most spectacular maps ever made are featured here, including: ~The Waldseemuller Map of the World from 1507, the first to include the designation "America". ~ Pages from Ortelius's Theatrum Orbis Terrarum of 1570, considered the first modern atlas. ~ Rare maps from Africa, Asia, and Oceania that challenge traditional Western perspectives. ~ William Faulkner's hand~drawn 1936 map of the fictional Yoknapatawpha County, Mississippi. ~ A 2001 map of the human genome. With their accompanying stories, the vivid color plates in Cartographia introduce the reader to an exciting new way of reading maps as travelogues~as living histories from the earliest imaginings about planet Earth to our current attempts at charting cyberspace, the latest of our "last frontiers.".
