Num de seus trabalhos mais ambiciosos e impressionantes, Ruy Castro levanta uma história que nunca tinha sido contada: a dos espiões, refugiados, quintas-colunas, diplomatas e artistas na capital federal do Brasil durante a Segunda Guerra. Foi um período marcado por reviravoltas, segredos e tramas que mudaram a vida dos brasileiros para sempre. Muito antes de o Brasil declarar guerra ao Eixo em 1942, a Segunda Guerra já estava entre nós.

Nesta biografia de um dos mais conhecidos guerreiros de nosso tempo, o ouvinte descobre como Lawrence - que não foi o primeiro, nem o único militar a servir junto às forças árabes rebeldes da época, tampouco o oficial de mais alta patente a assistir os líderes da sublevação - tornou-se um destacado e influente assessor militar dos mais importantes chefes árabes.

Ele participou de duas guerras nas quais o seu país foi derrotado e serviu ao maior criminoso que a História conheceu. Mesmo assim, o militar Erwin Rommel é lembrado como um dos grandes guerreiros do século XX e o maior general alemão da Segunda Guerra Mundial.

Broken Mirrors, Steady Ground is a testament to survival—not as triumph, but as deliberate, daily choice. For anyone carrying unrelenting weight—veterans, chronic pain warriors, parents holding it together on fumes—this is proof that even a cracked reflection can still show the way forward.

Few disasters have touched Australia as profoundly as the sinking of the hospital ship Centaur – one of the deadliest wartime attacks ever on Australia – killing 268 souls on a mission of mercy. Ellen Savage, a fearless nurse from country New South Wales, was the only woman to survive. For more than 34 hours, she and other heroes fought off sharks and helped the injured until rescuers arrived. She was awarded the George Medal for her bravery.

Hearing the Echoes is a raw, unflinching memoir about living with the unrelenting auditory hallucinations of combat—mortar rounds slamming into the ground, explosions ripping through silence, and machine gun fire that erupts without warning. For years, these intrusive sounds dictated the terms of every interaction, fracturing relationships, demanding constant withdrawal, and leaving no room for sustained connection. This is not a story of transcendence or complete recovery.

L'exploit d'Oskar Schindler est connu, celui de Felix Kersten l'est beaucoup moins. Pourtant, un mémorandum du Congrès juif mondial établissait dès 1947 que cet homme avait sauvé en Allemagne « 100 000 personnes de diverses nationalités, dont environ 60 000 juifs ». Pour reconstituer cette dernière au travers des archives, des mémoires, des journaux, des notes et des dépositions des principaux protagonistes, il fallait un historien spécialiste de la Seconde Guerre mondiale qui soit également polyglotte.

What does it truly cost to survive war, and who carries the burden when the fighting comes home? Unbreakable Valor is a raw, firsthand account drawn from real-world U.S. Army Special Forces missions, written by retired Green Beret combat medic and physician assistant Drew Webb. Through unfiltered storytelling, Webb takes listeners inside the firefights, medical trauma, and impossible decisions of combat in Afghanistan, then follows the quieter aftermath few ever witness.

The world changed on Sept 11th 2001 and again May 2nd, 2011 but for me, the real transformation unfolded over months of training, deployment, and the long journey home. This war diary is not just a record of events but a reflection of the duality of life in service—a world where chaos meets connection, where exhaustion coexists with resilience, and where longing for home becomes both an anchor and a driving force.

Surviving Hell is a harrowing account of Lieutenant Colonel William Miner, taken prisoner for 39 months after his unit surrendered to the Japanese on the island of Cebu, Philippines, during World War II. Despite losing every friend in his unit and suffering from torture and deprivation that would “warp men’s souls,” Bill Miner professed, “I am lucky. People fell beside me and people were blown apart beside me. Anywhere I went as a prisoner, I tried to be aware of the situation and use it the best I could to survive.”

In 1914 a war began that destroyed nearly everything in its path: lives, countries, empires, and the world as it was known until that moment. And while destruction could be found almost everywhere around the world in its aftermath, nowhere was more marred than that of the Western Front; the scars of which still haunt us to this day.

Rome’s Greatest General Who Never Ruled tells the story of a man who exercised immense power without claiming sovereignty. Whose loyalty, restraint, and competence made the Augustan age possible. Drawing on ancient sources and modern scholarship, this biography reveals how Marcus Vipsanius Agrippa’s victories, engineering genius, and administrative skill shaped the Roman Empire far more deeply than many who wore the imperial title.

La Grande Guerra non ha eroi. I protagonisti non sono re, imperatori, generali. Sono fanti contadini, i nostri nonni. La guerra dei nostri nonni racconta il conflitto '15-'18 sul fronte italiano, alternando storie di uomini e di donne: le storie delle nostre famiglie. Attraverso lettere, diari di guerra, testimonianze, conduce nell'abisso del dolore. Eppure, sia il racconto di una sofferenza che oggi non riusciamo a immaginare, sia le tante storie a lieto fine restituiscono la stessa idea: la Grande Guerra fu la prima sfida dell'Italia unita; e fu vinta.
