Fighting the Desert Fox: Rommel's Campaigns in North Africa April 1941 to August 1942

230 b/w illustrations! One of World War Two's greatest generals took on Britain's most powerful forces in one of the world's severest terrains. Historian Delaney, armed with new information only recently seen in the West, provides a fresh, concise, and authoritative account of the dramatic desert campaign. Lavishly illustrated with 230 photos from London's Imperial War Museum, the riveting narrative covers the darkest hours of Allied fortunes in North Africa. It offers an astute analysis of British and German generalship, and highlights the massive logistics problems of desert warfare. The fateful battle for Tobruk and the advance to El Alamein receive day-by-day, blow-by-blow accounts of a time and place where quick thinking and surprise action mattered more than deliberate plan and careful calculation. Trim size: 8 1/2 x 10 3/4.

About the book: Far ranging in its geography, Waypoints is a collection of poems that mark the itinerary of a poet wanderer—in matter and mind—over many years. As he acknowledges in his statement about the book, John often writes about places he has been because, like a GPS system, they reflect the ups and downs, turns and twists (tone and tenor), of the mental and emotional life-journey he has been taking. Believing there is no better teacher and no better resource for the imagination than nature, John is most grounded when he is in some remote place, enjoying the challenge it presents and the adventure it becomes. These poems take the reader to unique locales around the world, from Port Townsend, Washington, where John now lives, to Nepal, Africa, and South America, where he has trekked. In each case, the presence of place informs his themes, such as time, family, and natural world wonder. Placed in the pages’ margins, the addition of latitude/longitude coordinates for the actual settings of the poems adds a more specific geographic level that curious readers may wish to explore on Google Earth. Included with John’s trek to Machu Picchu with his son are the actual photographs he took on their journey that inspired his haiku. Whether formal or not, with rhyme or without, the poems in this volume will challenge the reader to examine his or her own paths and the stops along them that have made the most impression—questioning how and why such experiences enable us to move forward in a reflective and grateful manner. John is the former curator of historic maps at Princeton University. A graduate of Syracuse’s Writing Program in 1976, John offers Waypoints as his first collection. Why did he wait 40 years? Let’s say that life intervened—and a lot of travel.

Blitman, New York School of Law

How to brief a case: An introduction to jurisprudence (Delaney series)

Reference

Delaney Pub

This widely used book in many printings begins with answers to forty commonly asked questions of first-year law students. It specifies a six-step approach to briefing a case with specific guidelines for accomplishing each step. The process of briefing cases is then demonstrated with excellent and poor briefs of increasing complexity. Emphasis is placed initially on the techniques of briefing as an introduction to the learning of legal reasoning, the first priority of the first year of law school. In addition, the book also demonstrates the relevance of more advanced modes of legal reasoning, including positivist, pragmatic, policy oriented, natural-law and other perspectives applied in decoding and understanding cases. In its introduction of jurisprudential perspectives, Learning Legal Reasoning transcends the typical technical/positivist orientation of most first-year materials.
