Taschenbuch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - When Russia invaded Ukraine in 2022, thousands of Ukrainian citizens strapped on armour, picked up weapons and chose to risk their lives for the freedom of their homeland. Many would never return. Choosing to stay in Ukraine and cover the invasion, journalist Tom Mutch witnessed the forging of an 'iron generation' of young Ukrainians. With first-hand reporting from all the major battlegrounds and front lines, The Dogs of Mariupol recounts not only the war's notorious encounters but also its untold stories, painstakingly documenting the immense human catastrophe wrought on Ukrainian society and the divisions between those who fought and those who fled.After four years of conflict, Ukraine holds on, but a peace agreement remains elusive. Meanwhile, the death toll only rises. In this revised and expanded edition, Tom Mutch charts the struggles behind the headlines - both of ordinary Ukrainians and their wartime leaders - and positions the invasion within the changing face of warfare and the breakdown of the global order itself.…

Buch. Zustand: Neu. Neuware - In his irreverent and uncompromising bestseller . And What Do You Do , former Minister of State and Privy Counsellor Norman Baker laid bare what the British royal family didn't want us to know, namely its extravagant use of public money and general bad behaviour. This sensational sequel goes even deeper in its analysis of royal finances, examining where the money comes from, how it is used and what has changed with the arrival of a new king. Amongst many other things, it reveals how a family that was effectively bankrupt in 1760 is now one of the richest in the country; how they lobby governments and the media to maximise their profits from the public purse; and how they take advantage of a uniquely beneficial tax and legislative regime. Packed with details on the acceptance of dodgy donations; the appropriation of official gifts for personal use; and the exploitation of public bodies including the NHS, churches and charities, who are charged punitive rates for the use of Duchy-controlled land, this eye-opening exposé also includes a chapter on Andrew Mountbatten Windsor and his money-making endeavours, including his friendships with convicted fraudsters, paedophiles and spies. Pulling no punches, this is the book the royal family really don't want you to read.…
