The Russian Civil War (1) - Mikhail Khvostov - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

The Russian Civil War (1) - Mikhail Khvostov - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

The main instrument with which the Bolsheviks imposed communism on Russia was the Red Army. Traditionally the origins of this army were among the factory workers who laid down their tools and took up arms as a way of expressing their grievances. Already formed by the time of the revolutions of 1905 and February 1917, these militant workers organised themselves into parliamentary detachments known as the krasnogvardeytsi, or ''Red Guards''. In this first of two volumes [see Men-at-Arms 305: White Armies] focusing on the Russian Civil War (1917-1923), Mikhail Khvostov examines the Red Army''s organisation, weaponry, uniforms and insignia.

Roman Army Units in the Western Provinces (3) - Raffaele D’amato - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

Roman Army Units in the Western Provinces (3) - Raffaele D’amato - Bog - Bloomsbury Publishing PLC - Plusbog.dk

A fully illustrated account of the large-scale reformation of the Roman Army from the reign of Diocletian to the fall of the Western Empire in AD 476. After the 50-year chaos of the mid-3rd century AD, Emperor Diocletian (r. AD 284–305) and his successor, Constantine I (r. AD 306–37), the first Christian emperor, undertook major administrative reforms to reflect new realities and improve defensive strategy. These changes saw the Roman Army completely reorganized, with its old structure of legions and auxiliary units giving way to central mobile field armies and various classes of garrison troops. In addition, the Army also began recruiting ''allied barbarians'' in ever-increasing numbers and even promoted some to the level of senior command. Roman military expert Raffaele D''Amato draws on the latest archaeological and written evidence to explore this turbulent final period of the Western Empire. Illustrated with photographs and drawings of surviving artefacts and imagery, this latest entry in a series charting the Roman Army''s evolution also features eight newly commissioned colour plates depicting the uniforms and weaponry of Rome''s reformed military.
