Through a vivid narration of a series of fights -- woodland skirmishes and massacres, bloody frontal assaults and fleet actions, rear-guard battles and shadowy covert actions -- Cohen explores how a distinctively American approach to war developed along the Great Warpath."

Lenin's Private War: The Voyage of the Philosophy Steamer and the Exile of the Intelligentsia by: Chamberlain, Lesley

Hardcover. NY, St. Martin's Press, 1st thus, 2007, Book: Very Good, Dust Jacket: Very Good, 414 pages, hardcover. Dust jacket, covers, and interior pages are all clean and bright. Binding is solid. Contains bind-in with B&W photography. This book details how, in 1922, Lenin personally drew up a list of some 160 'undesirable' intellectuals - mostly philosophers, academics, scientists, and journalists - to be deported from the new Soviet State. 'We're going to cleanse Russia once and for all' he wrote to Stalin, whose job it was to oversee the deportation. Two ships sailed from Petrograd that autumn, taking Old Russia's eminent men and their families away to what would become permanent exile in Berlin, Prague and Paris. Lesley Chamberlain creates a rich portrait of this chilling historical moment, evoked with immediacy through the journals, letters, and memoirs of the exiles. Clean copy. Record # 33984
