★★★ Gone in an instant ★★★

Pompeii was one of the most advanced cities of its time; it had a complex water system, gymnasium, and amphitheater. Despite its advancements, there was one thing it wasn't ready for: Mount Vesuvius--the volcano that led to its ultimate doom.

The 79 AD eruption of Mount Vesuvius was one of the worst disasters in all of European history. In a near instant, over 15,000 people were dead and a city was completely destroyed.

This book looks at the rise, fall, and rediscovery of the great city of Pompeii.

★★★ The incredible forgotten story of the WWII female bomber regiment ★★★

From 1942 until the end of World War II, the Soviets had a secret weapon: women. 

The 588th Night Bomber Regiment was one of the most decorated units; each member had flown more than 800 missions by the end of the war, and twenty-three were awarded the Hero of the Soviet Union (the highest distinction).

Despite all the awards, the unit is largely forgotten now. This book looks at the history of one of the most daring aviation units ever commissioned.

★★★ The greatest baseball players...you've never heard of ★★★

Rube Foster, Cool Papa Bell, Monte Irvin, Buck Leonard...they are some of the greatest players to ever play the game; so why have so few people heard of them? Because they never played in the MLB; they were the heroes of a baseball league often forgotten: The Negro League.

This book traces the history of the league from the early days of Professional Black Baseball and the formation of leagues to post-integration decline.

Spies! Treason! Conspiracy! The American Civil War? 

Civil War spying had all the ingredients of a modern spy movie – just replaces gadgets with Saber's and Colt's.

This book looks at the incredible history of espionage in the Civil War. With a gripping narrative, this book will read more like a John le Carré spy novel than a history book.
