    • Chicago's architectural landscape has been profoundly shaped by classical architecture, particularly since the 1893 World's Columbian Exposition, which showcased the stunning Beaux-Arts style. This event, often referred to as the creation of the "White City," marked a pivotal moment in the city's aesthetic evolution. Following the exposition, Daniel Burnham's "Plan of Chicago" further promoted classical design, influencing not only local architecture but also setting trends across the United States.

He's the man the CIA sends to clean up the mess when something goes wrong-an agent gets in trouble, or worse. But when his colleague and friend Porter Nauman turns up dead in an idyllic Tuscan hill town, as a result of an apparent and unimaginably gruesome suicide, Dalton can't help but ask questions. And when Nauman's family is subsequently slaughtered back home in London, Dalton can sit back no longer.Moving from Venice to London to Washington, D.C., to the unbearably beautiful mountains of the American West, Dalton tracks the specter who, with a penchant for intricate knifework influenced by Native American mysticism, is killing a disparate group of agents, former agents, and contract men-all of whom seem to have a connection to ECHELON, a mysterious company operation. The murders appear to be acts of retribution, but for what?Elegant, horrifying, and chillingly suspenseful, The Echelon Vendetta will keep you enthralled, through its final, supremely satisfying twist.

    • Kniha pojednává o jedné z nejznámějších, trvale profesionální, často kontroverzní a zpočátku nejúspěšnější armádě, nerozebírá filosofii nacismu, nýbrž svoji pozornost soustřeďuje především na armádu. Zabývá se rovněž některými méně zjevnými prvky ovlivňujícími tuto armádu, například morálkou, motivací, ctí a disciplínou, stejně jako občas složitými vztahy s nacistickým státem, jemuž sloužila, a s Hitlerem jako svým vrchním velitelem. Spolu s vyčerpávajícím přehledem vývoje Hitlerovy armády je tato práce strukturována způsobem radícím ji k četným již existujícím historickým dílům, pamětem a podrobnějším válečným popisům Německa a jeho ozbrojených sil v dobách Třetí říše. Kniha obsahuje rovněž obecný přehled operací německé armády, podrobný popis jednotlivých válečných tažení a bitev.
