The Battle of the Bulge was the perfect storm for the Allies in late 1944; a tired army, overstretched supply lines, and poor intelligence on what was waiting on the other side of the hill. On 16th December, with almost complete surprise, the Germans launched their last major offensive in the West. Emerging from thick fog and through the dense woodland of the Ardennes nearly 500,000 German troops slammed into American lines. For almost a week the Germans were able to make good ground, and the glory days of 1940 beckoned as they crushed all resistances before them, often with extreme cruelty. On Christmas Eve, the Germans had lost their initial advantage, the skies cleared and air support returned. For the next 3 weeks the battle hung in the balance. For the Americans the Battle of the Bulge would be the deadliest single battle of the Second World War. This Battle Craft title also looks at four pieces of military hardware that were involved in these legendary battles. Massive King Tigers rained down terror and destruction among the Allies M4's and other armour, until the arrival of nimble M18 Hellcats which counted for several King Tigers. Over head the almost uncatchable ME262 battled with its own nemesis, the virtually indestructible P-47. The Quartermaster section provides the modeller with an insight into the development and operational use of the four chosen vehicles and aircraft that were involved in the Battle of the Bulge. A selection of historical and contemporary photos and illustrations feature alongside stunning showcase builds, providing the modeller with subjects to whet the creative appetite. It also features details of model kits and extras that can really help the modeller bring military history to life.

Los esquemas de este libro estan basados en la metodologia de la literatura holandesa referida al juego de las damas y en las obras del gran maestro ruso Vladimir Kaplan. En su contenido se describe la variedad del juego que hemos denominado antes: "a la espanola", es decir, sobre el tablero de 64 casillas y 12 fichas por jugador. Estos textos sencillos y un gran numero de diagramas comentados espero que hagan de esta obra un texto dinamico e interesante, utilizable incluso en los mismos colegios, en los que deportes "cientificos" como las damas o el ajedrez, deberian tener una cabida especial. Es mi deseo ademas, que los amantes de este juego disfruten con su lectura y que despierte al mismo tiempo un vivo interes por introducir en esta obra una pequena recopilacion de los primeros balbuceos de este juego tratando de crear una pequenisima y modesta contribucion a la cultura espanola.

The Second World War Jeep was one of the most famous and influential military vehicles of all time, and over 600,000 were produced.

A selection of archive photographs showing the Jeep in service in European and Pacific campaigns gives a graphic impression of how adaptable the Jeep was and records the variety of equipment it could carry.

Puede pensarse en un principio que el juego tiene su origen alrededor del siglo XV en el reino de Aragon (zona de Valencia) Se conocia en aquel momento con el nombre de "juego del marro", "marro de punta", o "el ingenio" Es a partir de 1650 cuando paso a denominarse definitivamente "juego de las damas" o simplemente "juego de damas", Fue por tanto muy triste para mi comprobar que n el pais que podia haber sido el origen de este deporte se perdiera desgraciadamente en el olvido; he mencionado la palabra deporte ya que es asi como esta considerado en multiples paises, entre ellos Holanda, en el que incluso existen subvenciones del Ministerio de Cultura para su desarrollo.
