This riveting volume dispels the sanitized history surrounding
Native American practices toward their enemies that preceded the
European exploration and colonization of North America. "We abandon
truth when we gloss over the clashes between Native Americans and
Europeans, encounters of parties equally matched in barbarity,"
says George Franklin Feldman, "We neglect true history when we hide
the uniqueness of the varied cultures that evolved during the
thousands of years before Europeans invaded North America." The
research is impeccable, the writing sparkling, and the evidence
incontrovertible: headhunting and cannibalism were practiced by
many of the native peoples of North America.
Britain's Anti-Submarine Capability, 1919-1939 is the first unified
study of the development of Britain's anti-submarine capability
between the armistice in 1919 and the onset of the second world
German submarine attack on Britain's maritime trade in 1939. Well
researched and yet accessibly written, this book challenges the
widespread belief that the Royal Navy failed to anticipate the
threat of the U-boat in the Second World War.
