Troubled Memory, Second Edition

Resumen del Ebook

Libro Troubled Memory, Second Edition

This powerful book tells the story of Anne Skorecki Levy, a Holocaust survivor who transformed the horrors of her childhood into a passionate mission to defeat the political menace of reputed neo-Nazi and Ku Klux Klan leader David Duke. The first book to connect the prewar and wartime experiences of Jewish survivors to the lives they subsequently made for themselves in the United States, Troubled Memory is also a dramatic testament to how the experiences of survivors as new Americans spurred their willingness to bear witness. Perhaps the only family to survive the liquidation of the Warsaw Ghetto as a group, the Skoreckis evaded deportation to Treblinka by posing as Aryans. The family eventually made their way to New Orleans, where they became part of a vibrant Jewish community. Lawrence Powell traces their dramatic odyssey and explores the events that eventually triggered Anne Skorecki Levy's brave decision to honor the suffering of the past by confronting the recurring specter of racist hatred.

Las batallas de Concón y Placilla

Libro Las batallas de Concón y Placilla

Esta obra no pretende adentrarse en las consideraciones políticas, económicas o sociales que causaron o se derivaron de la Revolución de 1891. A lo que se invita al lector es a efectuar una revisión de los factores que habrían influido en el desenlace de las dos principales batallas: la de Concón y la de Placilla, acaecidas el 21 y 28 de agosto de 1891, respectivamente. El autor, recurriendo a la teoría estratégica busca explicar por qué fuerzas numéricamente inferiores pudieron imponer —con dramática contundencia— su voluntad sobre un enemigo que era o debía ser superior.
