BEV IN ALEXANDERInside the Nazi War MachineHow Three Generals Unleashed Hitler’s Blitzkrieg Upon the World
An expert military strategist examines the groundbreaking martial concepts developed by three brilliant generals—Erwin Rommel, Erich von Manstein, and Heinz Guderian.“Vividly recounts how Rommel, von Manstein and Guderian turned the Blitz-krieg into a fearsome weapon of war in France in 1940, and how Hitler botched his best opportunity to have defeated the BEF, and perhaps defeated Britain.”—Carlo D’Este, author of PattonNAL PAPERBACK 320 PP. 978-0-451-23265-6 $16.00
FREDER ICK KEMPEBerlin 1961Kennedy, Khrushchev, and the Most Dangerous Place on Earth

A fresh, controversial, brilliantly written account of one of the epic dramas of the Cold War—and its lessons for today.“History at its best.

The excerpt from Petronius included as an appendix will be especially valuable in situating the poet in his literary context.”—Martin Brady, University College DublinPENGUIN CLASSICS PAPERBACK 800 PP. 978-0-14-310623-4 $17.00Available February 2012
NORMAN DAV IESVanished KingdomsThe Rise and Fall of States and Nations
An evocative account of fourteen European kingdoms—their rise, maturity, and eventual disappearance. Davies peers through the cracks in the main-stream accounts of modern-day states to dazzle us with extraordinary stories of barely remembered pasts, and of the traces they left behind.“An expedition along the byways of European history. It is in part a traveller’s tale, as Davies tours his half-forgotten realms, describing people and land-scape, searching for memories and physical remains of these vanished king-doms. Combined with this are the ruminations of a historian about the states and societies that are this book’s heroes and the reasons why they vanished from the map.”—Financial Times“In this brilliant, beautifully written book, Davies recovers...scattered vestiges of dead kingdoms, tracing the skeins that link modern political realities with ancient history.”—The Telegraph (UK)VIKING HARDCOVER 720 PP. 978-0-670-02273-1 $40.00

An authoritative history covering two millennia of human experience, The Birth of Classical Europe presents provocative new perspectives on the world in whose shadow we continue to live. “Combines a strong narrative with sophisticated thematic analysis and re-flection....Despite the immense ground covered, there is no impression of the breathlessness and superficiality which one might have thought unavoid-able.”—The Times Literary Supplement (UK)“Offers a seamless history across more than two millennia....By insisting on the unifying relationship between the present and what has gone on before, Price and Thonemann place themselves in the same intellectual tradition as Augustine.”—BBC History Magazine (UK)PENGUIN PAPERBACK 416 PP. 978-0-14-312045-2 $20.00
PLUTARCHThe Age of AlexanderTRANSLATED BY IAN SCOTT-KILVERTNEW INTRODUCTION AND NOTES BY TIMOTHY E. DUFF
Plutarch’s parallel biographies of the great men in Greek and Roman history are cornerstones of European literature, drawn on by countless writers since the Renaissance. This selection provides intimate glimpses into the lives of these men, revealing why the mild Artaxerxes forced the killer of his usurping brother to undergo the horrific “death of two boats;” why the noble Dion re-peatedly risked his life for the ungrateful mobs of Syracuse; why Demosthenes delivered a funeral oration for the soldiers he had deserted in battle; and why Alexander self-destructed after conquering half the world.PENGUIN CLASSICS PAPERBACK 480 PP. 978-0-14-044935-8 $16.00

An authoritative history covering two millennia of human experience, The Birth of Classical Europe presents provocative new perspectives on the world in whose shadow we continue to live. “Combines a strong narrative with sophisticated thematic analysis and re-flection....Despite the immense ground covered, there is no impression of the breathlessness and superficiality which one might have thought unavoid-able.”—The Times Literary Supplement (UK)“Offers a seamless history across more than two millennia....By insisting on the unifying relationship between the present and what has gone on before, Price and Thonemann place themselves in the same intellectual tradition as Augustine.”—BBC History Magazine (UK)PENGUIN PAPERBACK 416 PP. 978-0-14-312045-2 $20.00
PLUTARCHThe Age of AlexanderTRANSLATED BY IAN SCOTT-KILVERTNEW INTRODUCTION AND NOTES BY TIMOTHY E. DUFF
Plutarch’s parallel biographies of the great men in Greek and Roman history are cornerstones of European literature, drawn on by countless writers since the Renaissance. This selection provides intimate glimpses into the lives of these men, revealing why the mild Artaxerxes forced the killer of his usurping brother to undergo the horrific “death of two boats;” why the noble Dion re-peatedly risked his life for the ungrateful mobs of Syracuse; why Demosthenes delivered a funeral oration for the soldiers he had deserted in battle; and why Alexander self-destructed after conquering half the world.PENGUIN CLASSICS PAPERBACK 480 PP. 978-0-14-044935-8 $16.00
RICHARD MILESCarthage Must Be DestroyedThe Rise and Fall of an Ancient Civilization
Drawing on a wealth of new archaeological research, Miles vividly brings to life this lost empire—from its origins among the Phoenician settlements of Lebanon to its apotheosis as the greatest seapower in the Mediterranean.“A fine, sweeping survey of the rise and fall of an empire and a glimpse into the diversity of the ancient world.”—The Wall Street Journal“Historian Richard Mills, of Cambridge, makes telling use of the latest dis-coveries yielded by Carthaginian ruins in a splendid, comprehensive effort to present the city-state as a dynamic entity and minimize it as a victimized, second-tier society so often portrayed in the histories of Roman and Western interpreters.”—The Newark Star-Ledger

BEV IN ALEXANDERInside the Nazi War MachineHow Three Generals Unleashed Hitler’s Blitzkrieg Upon the World
An expert military strategist examines the groundbreaking martial concepts developed by three brilliant generals—Erwin Rommel, Erich von Manstein, and Heinz Guderian.“Vividly recounts how Rommel, von Manstein and Guderian turned the Blitz-krieg into a fearsome weapon of war in France in 1940, and how Hitler botched his best opportunity to have defeated the BEF, and perhaps defeated Britain.”—Carlo D’Este, author of PattonNAL PAPERBACK 320 PP. 978-0-451-23265-6 $16.00

FOREWORD BY GENERAL BRENT SCOWCROFT
A fresh, controversial, brilliantly written account of one of the epic dramas of the Cold War—and its lessons for today.“History at its best.

NORMAN DAV IESVanished KingdomsThe Rise and Fall of States and Nations
An evocative account of fourteen European kingdoms—their rise, maturity, and eventual disappearance. Davies peers through the cracks in the main-stream accounts of modern-day states to dazzle us with extraordinary stories of barely remembered pasts, and of the traces they left behind.“An expedition along the byways of European history. It is in part a traveller’s tale, as Davies tours his half-forgotten realms, describing people and land-scape, searching for memories and physical remains of these vanished king-doms. Combined with this are the ruminations of a historian about the states and societies that are this book’s heroes and the reasons why they vanished from the map.”—Financial Times“In this brilliant, beautifully written book, Davies recovers...scattered vestiges of dead kingdoms, tracing the skeins that link modern political realities with ancient history.”—The Telegraph (UK)VIKING HARDCOVER 720 PP. 978-0-670-02273-1 $40.00
