Shameful Flight : The Last Years Of The British Empire In India

Attribution
Stanley Wolpert
Publication Details
Book, Oxford University Press, 2006
Links
Description
Britain’s precipitous and ill-planned disengagement from India in 1947–condemned as a “shameful flight” by Winston Churchill–had a truly catastrophic effect on South Asia, leaving hundreds of thousands of people dead in its wake and creating a legacy of chaos, hatred, and war that has lasted over half a century. Stanley Wolpert, a leading authority on Indian history, paints memorable portraits of all the key participants, including Gandhi, Churchill, Attlee, Nehru, and Jinnah, with special focus on British viceroy, Lord Louis Mountbatten.

The Wehrmacht : History, Myth, Reality

Attribution
Wolfram Wette ; translated by Deborah Lucas Schneider
Publication Details
Book, Harvard University Press, 2006
Description
This book is a profound reexamination of the role of the German army, the Wehrmacht, in World War II. Until very recently, the standard story avowed that the ordinary German soldier in World War II was a good soldier, distinct from Hitler’s rapacious SS troops, and not an accomplice to the massacres of civilians. This sober indictment of millions of German soldiers reaches beyond the Wehrmacht’s complicity to examine how German academics and ordinary citizens avoided confronting this difficult truth at war’s end.
