Story
Pietro La Greca Sr. was an intimidating Napolitano con man dubbed “Mexico’s real-life Don Corleone”. He ran Mexico’s biggest money-laundering scheme during the worst economic period in the country’s history. His was a world of fast cars, mansions on the water, and VIP treatment at Las Vegas casinos. His exploitation of Mexico’s financial free fall made him a wealthy man. But while he was running his criminal empire, his son, Pietro Jr., a.k.a. Picho, was learning his father’s tricks—if only to bring the man down.

Country of Ash is the starkly compelling, original chronicle of a Jewish doctor who miraculously survived near-certain death, first inside the Lodz and Warsaw ghettoes, where he was forced to treat the Gestapo, then on the Aryan side of Warsaw, where he hid under numerous disguises. He clandestinely recorded the terrible events he witnessed, but his manuscript disappeared during the Warsaw Ghetto Uprising. After the war, reunited with his wife and young daughter, he rewrote his story.

In May 1943, a young, pregnant Frenchwoman called Lucie Aubrac engineered the escape of her husband Raymond from the clutches of Klaus Barbie, the feared Gestapo chief. She later ambushed the prison vans in which members of the Resistance were being driven to an almost certain death. Spirited out of France by the RAF at the end of 1943, nine months pregnant, she arrived in London a heroine. In 1983, when both Aubracs had retired, Klaus Barbie was put on trial in France.

Story
Becoming Shakespeare begins with his death in 1616 and relates the fascinating story of his unlikely transformation from provincial playwright to universal Bard. Unlike later literary giants, Shakespeare created no stir when he died. Though he'd once had a string of hit plays, he had been retired in the country for six years, and only his family, friends, and business partners seemed to care that he was gone.

E a ideia de deixar Portugal, o pai envelhecido, os cinco irmãos em constante desacordo, e Lopo, irmão de leite e melhor amigo, para partir para um país longínquo e gelado atormentava-lhe o coração. Era a terceira mulher de Filipe, já duas vezes viúvo, esperava vir a dar-lhe o herdeiro legítimo de que Borgonha tanto precisava. A sua fama de mulherengo atravessava fronteiras… Mas Isabel sabia que nascera para cumprir um destino, ser a Estrela do Norte, que firme no céu indica o caminho.

"Todo el país vibra de indignación ante esos desalmados que quieren, por el fuego y el terror, sumir a la España democrática y popular en un infierno de terror. Pero no pasarán…" Aquel legendario llamamiento por radio del 19 de julio de 1936 convirtió a Dolores Ibárruri, a la sazón diputada del Frente Popular por Asturias, en el símbolo universal de la resistencia republicana frente al fascismo. Mario Amorós ha escrito un relato biográfico riguroso y sobre todo necesario de una de las grandes figuras del movimiento obrero y comunista internacional.

Sulla base di una conoscenza diretta delle fonti e dell'ormai sterminata bibliografia di lingua tedesca e italiana, l'autore traccia un profilo dell'imperatore normanno-svevo Federico II (1194-1250), una delle figure più discusse del Medioevo europeo. Il volume è suddiviso in tre parti: la prima è dedicata alla storia politica di Federico, segnata dalla lotta con il Papato e i Comuni; la seconda si occupa dell'uomo, della sua sfera famigliare, dei suoi interessi filosofici e scientifici, e del suo entourage di cui facevano parte anche studiosi ebraici e arabi; la terza segue la formazione del mito di Federico attraverso i secoli fino ai giorni nostri.

Diocleziano, che pure si ritiene aver posto fine con le sue riforme alla crisi del III secolo, è una figura di cui si sa relativamente poco. Le sue origini oscure, il suo ruolo nell'ultima grande persecuzione del cristianesimo, le sue dimissioni dalla carica imperiale nel 305, con la conseguente instabilità politica che portò, dieci anni dopo, al trionfo di Costantino: il libro traccia una sintetica biografia di Diocleziano mettendone in luce il progetto politico nel contesto della storia imperiale romana e illustrando i relativi problemi storiografici.
