Penguin Hackney, That Rose-Red Empire. A Confidential Report Sinclair Iain

From Tristram Hunt, award-winning author of The Frock-Coated Communist and leading UK politician, Ten Cities that Made an Empire presents a new approach to Britain's imperial past through the cities that epitomised it • Since the return of Hong Kong to China in 1997 and the end days of Empire, Britain's colonial past has been the subject of passionate debate. Tristram Hunt goes beyond the now familiar arguments about Empire being good or bad and adopts a fresh approach to Britain's empire and its legacy. Through an exceptional array of first-hand accounts and personal reflections, he portrays the great colonial and imperial cities of Boston, Bridgetown, Dublin, Cape Town, Calcutta, Hong Kong, Bombay, Melbourne, New Delhi, and twentieth-century Liverpool: their architecture, culture, and society balls; the famines, uprisings and repressions which coursed through them; the primitive accumulation and ghostly bureaucracy which ran them; the British supremacists and multicultural trailblazers who inhabited them

В феврале 1945 году произошла бомбардировка Дрездена, прозванного «Флоренцией на Эльбе». Каждые семь с половиной секунд на город сбрасывали взрывные снаряды весом более 1000 фунтов. Погибло около 25 тысяч человек. Но был ли Дрезден на самом деле военной целью? • В книге Dresden. The Fire and the Darkness Синклера Маккея представлена история города и самой бомбардировки, расписанная поминутно – от первых взрывов до языков пламени, достигающих мили в высоту, пока горячий воздух выжигал легкие всем, кто становился у него на пути • Мы познакомимся с самыми разными персонажами: еврейкой, которая считала, что английские бомбы были даром небесным; писателем Куртом Воннегутом, который сравнивал выжженные улицы уничтоженного города с поверхностью Луны; и с пятнадцатилетним Уинфредом Бьельсом, который, помогая беженцам, хотел лишь поскорее вернуться к своей коллекции марок

On a sunlit evening in l882, Lord Frederick Cavendish and Thomas Burke, Chief Secretary and Undersecretary for Ireland, were ambushed and stabbed to death while strolling through Phoenix Park in Dublin. The murders were carried out by the Invincibles, a militant faction of republicans armed with specially-made surgeon’s blades. They ended what should have been a turning point in Anglo-Irish relations. A new spirit of goodwill had been burgeoning between Prime Minister William Gladstone and Ireland’s leader Charles Stewart Parnell, with both men forging in secret a pact to achieve peace and independence in Ireland – with the newly appointed Cavendish, Gladstone’s protege, to play an instrumental role. The impact of the Phoenix Park murders was so cataclysmic that it destroyed the pact, almost brought down the government and set in motion repercussions that would last long into the twentieth century
