World History Rome - Antiquity’s superpower
In 52 BC, after six years of war against the Gallic tribes, Julius Caesar had tamed another enemy of the Roman Republic. Almost one million Gauls were taken as slaves, while their land became just another Roman province.

The security arrangements around the leader of the Nazi regime were therefore enormous when, in July 1944, Officer Claus von Stauffenberg travelled to Hitler's Führerbunker in East Prussia to kill first Adolf Hitler and...

Paul Gilligan Boy vs. shark
"It's 1975, and ten-year-old Paul Gilligan has no choice but to join everyone in seeing the movie Jaws. But rather than proving his courage, the movie leaves Paul a cowering mess, and underlines the growing gap between him and his friend David, as well as the distance between where he stands and the world's expectations of a boy's 'manliness'. And when the shark itself becomes a kind of macho Jiminy Cricket for Paul, what is a scared and overwhelmed boy to do? Find out in this hilarious graphic memoir...

Paul Bierman When the ice is gone
what a Greenland ice core reveals about Earth's tumultuous history and perilous future
"In 2018, lumps of frozen soil, collected from the bottom of the world's first deep ice core and lost for decades, reappeared in Denmark. When geologist Paul Bierman and his team first melted a piece of this unique material, they were shocked to find perfectly preserved leaves, twigs, and moss. That observation led them to a startling discovery: Greenland's ice sheet had melted naturally before, about 400,000 years ago. The remote island's ice was far more fragile than scientists had realized--unstable...
