But they are far from new. The West has a long-term Russia problem, not a Putin problem. Spies mines hitherto secret archives and exclusive interviews with former agents to tell the history of the war that Russia and the West have been waging for a century. Espionage dark arts were the Kremlin's means to equalise the imbalance of arms between the East and West before, during and after the Cold War. There was nothing 'unprecedented' about Russian meddling in the 2016 US presidential election. It was business as usual, new means for old ends.\r\nThe Cold War started long before 1945. Western powers gradually fought back after the Second World War, mounting their own shadow war, deploying propaganda, recruiting intelligence networks and pioneering new spy technologies against the Soviet Union. Spies is an inspiring, engrossing story of the best and worst of mankind: bravery and honour, treachery and betrayal. The narrative shifts across continents and decades, from the freezing streets of St. Petersburg in 1917 to the bloody beaches of Normandy; from coups in faraway lands to present-day Moscow, where troll farms weaponise social media against Western democracies. This fresh reading of history makes Spies a unique and essential addition to the story of the unrolling conflict between Russia, China and the West that will dominate the twenty-first century.","authors":["Calder Walton"],"category_codes":["9000000","9050000"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/013\/9780349145013_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/013\/9780349145013_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/013\/9780349145013_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"21,40 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"2 mai 2024","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Calder Walton \u2014 Abacus","translator":null,"weight":507,"page_count":640,"readership":null,"editor":"Abacus","price":2140,"published_date":"2024-05-01T22:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":[],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9780349145013\/spies-the-epic-intelligence-war-between-east-and-west"},{"id":"9781472295224","title":"Japan's War : Hirohito's Holy War Against the West","description":"'A superbly revealing account of a dreadful and profoundly sad war' ALASTAIR CAMPBELL\r\n'This extraordinary book gives us a unique insight into why and how Japan fought such an appalling war' NICK HEWER\r\nA new perspective on Japan during the Asia-Pacific War, using remarkable first-hand Japanese source material.\r\nEven after eighty years since the end of a conflict that killed thirty-five million people, there remains deeply-felt bitterness and anger about the way the Asia-Pacific War was fought, especially by the Japanese.\r\nThe war in the East stretched from Hawaii to India - with Japanese forces attacking Singapore, China and Malaysia, as well as bombing the north coast of Australia.

Periodicals and radio programs across the world carried the news; both became global celebrities. A few decades later, they were all but forgotten. And in the wake of their transitions, what could have been a push toward equality became instead, through a confluence of bureaucracy, war, and sheer happenstance, the exact opposite: the now all-too-familiar panic around trans, intersex, and gender nonconforming athletes.\r\nIn The Other Olympians, Michael Waters uncovers, for the first time, the gripping true stories of Koubek, Weston, and other pioneering trans and intersex athletes from their era.

Urgent, compelling reading from the author of Chernobyl on the defining conflict of our times\r\nOn 24 February 2022, Russia stunned the world by launching an invasion of Ukraine. In the midst of checking on the family and friends who were now on the front lines of Europe's largest conflict since the outbreak of the Second World War, acclaimed Ukrainian-American historian Serhii Plokhy inevitably found himself attempting to understand the deeper causes of the invasion, analysing its course and contemplating the wider outcomes.\r\nThe Russo-Ukrainian War is the comprehensive history of a war that has burned since 2014, and that, with Russia's attempt to seize Kyiv, exploded a geo-political order that had been cemented since the end of the Cold War. With an eye for the gripping detail on the ground, both in the halls of power and down in the trenches, as well as a keen sense of the grander sweep of history, Plokhy traces the origins and the evolution of the conflict, from the collapse of the Russian empire to the rise and fall of the USSR and on to the development in Ukraine of a democratic politics.\r\nBased on decades of research and his unique insight into the region, he argues that Ukraine's defiance of Russia, and the West's demonstration of unity and strength, has presented a profound challenge to Putin's Great Power ambition, and further polarized the world along a new axis.

There was a degree of excitement in the early hours when we passed Stromboli, emitting a rich glow every half-minute or so like an ogre puffing on an immense cigar; and a few hours later, in the early morning sunshine, we sailed into the Conca d'Oro, the Golden Shell, in which the city lies. Apart from the beauty of the setting, I remember being instantly struck by a change in atmosphere. The Strait of Messina is only a couple of miles across and the island is politically part of Italy; yet somehow one feels that one has entered a different world . . . This book is, among other things, an attempt to analyse why this should be.' \r\nThe stepping stone between Europe and Africa, the gateway between the East and the West, at once a stronghold, clearing-house and observation post, Sicily has been invaded and fought over by Phoenicians and Greeks, Carthaginians and Romans, Goths and Byzantines, Arabs and Normans, Germans, Spaniards and the French for thousands of years. It has belonged to them all - and yet has properly been part of none. \r\nJohn Julius Norwich was inspired to become a writer by his first visit in 1961 and this book is the result of a fascination that has lasted over half a century. In tracing its dark story, he attempts to explain the enigma that lies at the heart of the Mediterranean's largest island. \r\nThis vivid short history covers everything from erupting volcanoes to the assassination of Byzantine emperors, from Nelson's affair with Emma Hamilton to Garibaldi and the rise of the Mafia. Taking in the key buildings and towns, and packed with fascinating stories and unforgettable characters, Sicily is the book he was born to write.","authors":["John julius Norwich","Paul Duncan"],"category_codes":["9000000","9050000"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/978\/9781848548978_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/978\/9781848548978_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/978\/9781848548978_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"21,40 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"19 mai 2016","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"John julius Norwich, Paul Duncan \u2014 John Murray","translator":null,"weight":292,"page_count":384,"readership":null,"editor":"John Murray","price":2140,"published_date":"2016-05-18T22:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":[],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9781848548978\/sicily-a-short-history-from-the-ancient-greeks-to-cosa-nostra"},{"id":"9780241767887","title":"A Scandal in Konigsberg","description":"A Times Best Book of the Year 2025\r\nA remarkable micro-history from the author of The Sleepwalkers and Revolutionary Spring\r\n'It takes a confident historian to write a short book... the story is distilled to its powerful essence; he knows precisely what's important... This small book is many things, but for me what shines brightest is a tale of two renegade preachers who understood women and love' - Gerard de Groot, The Times \r\nNow part of the Russian Baltic enclave of Kaliningrad, the former Prussian and German port of K\u00f6nigsberg has always been a somewhat sleepy place, doomed to be famous for having once been the residence of Immanuel Kant.  But in the late 1830s, just for a short while, it became famous for all the wrong reasons.\r\nChristopher Clark's brilliant new book is the result of many years of fascination with this strange case. Sensational accusations were bandied about, implying that beneath the town's somnolent surface there were dark erotic currents and wrenching betrayals of trust.  For the Prussian authorities this was just the sort of moral collapse they feared most.  In the aftermath of the Revolutionary and Napoleonic Wars, which had unsettled a generation, every lapse could be seen as the harbinger of new storms.\r\nA Scandal in K\u00f6nigsberg beautifully brings to life a time and a place that we would now situate in the tranquil 'Biedermeier' years between the seismic upheavals of the 1810s and 1840s.  But there is a timeless quality to this small vortex of turbulence, in which spiritual hunger, vanity, professional rivalry, sexual incontinence, naivety and sheer human waywardness threatened to tear a city apart.","authors":["Christopher Clark"],"category_codes":["9000000","9050000"],"visuals":{"large":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/887\/9780241767887_1_75.jpg","medium":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/887\/9780241767887_1_m.jpg","thumbnail":"https:\/\/images.epagine.fr\/887\/9780241767887_1_v.jpg"},"orderable":true,"show_badge":true,"formatted_price":"29,80 \u20ac","formatted_published_date":"4 septembre 2025","publisher_availability_label":"Sur commande","short_details":"Christopher Clark \u2014 Allen Lane","translator":null,"weight":295,"page_count":192,"readership":null,"editor":"Allen Lane","price":2980,"published_date":"2025-09-03T22:00:00.000000Z","support":"Grand format","publisher_availability":1,"stock":0,"editions":["9781802069730"],"url":"https:\/\/quaidesbrumes.com\/ouvrage\/9780241767887\/a-scandal-in-konigsberg"}]}
