    HEROES OF THE REICH ADOLF HITLER The Only Democratically Elected Leader of World War Two PUBLISHING REAL HISTORY Mike Walsh BIOGRAPHY MIKE WALSH Mike Walsh is a veteran journalist, broadcaster and historian. A fugitive from renegade Europeans, leftists, palace journalists, he has shrugged off their wrath over 50 years of writing. His Irish-American father, Patrick had fought in four conflicts by the time he reached 40-years of age: The Irish peoples guerrilla war against the British Army‟s Black and Tans. These armed irregulars, dredged from England‟s prisons, were notorious for their viciousness. The Irish War of Independence and on to fight in the most ferocious hand-to-hand battles during the Spanish Civil War. Whilst on the frontlines he was a close associate of American war correspondent, Ernest Hemingway. Mike‟s father formed an enduring friendship with Ireland‟s celebrated playwright, Sean O‟Casey. Eventually his father served in the Royal Air Force during World War Two as an aircraft fitter / flier. Kathleen, Mike‟s well- educated mother also mentored his writing skills. A former novice nun she was a corresponding friend of Spain's Civil War revolutionary La Pasionaria. From the age of 26 the world-travelling Mike was consumed by a passion for truth and justice. Inevitably, this led him to the potpourri of lies, infamies, cover-ups and crimes committed by the Allies that militarily defeated the Workers Reich. By doing so they ensured the spread of Bolshevism, denial of freedom to nearly a score of Central European nations, the dismembering of the British Empire, and surrender to American imperialism.

    www.eaf51.org SEGNALAZIONE LIBRI (Aggiornamento Giugno 2013) A seguito delle richieste di alcuni membri dell’EAF51 ho provveduto a redigere una lista di libri di argomento “pertinente” alla nostra comune passione, con alcune righe a commento, che aggiorno periodicamente. Ho letto personalmente molti dei libri segnalati, che fanno parte della mia libreria. Alcuni dei titoli citati nell’elenco che segue, tuttavia, mi erano sconosciuti. Ringrazio pertanto gli altri membri del 51° Stormo EAF che, con le loro segnalazioni, mi hanno permesso di aggiungere a questa lista molti libri che (ancora) non ho letto… Nell’elenco sono presenti anche libri che purtroppo sono esauriti da tempo: con un po’ di fortuna possono essere ancora reperiti in qualche bancarella di libri usati. I volumi sono ordinati per argomento. Il commento non è una recensione, ma una semplice guida ai contenuti dei vari volumi. Esso riflette esclusivamente il mio parere personale, o quello di alcuni amici che hanno voluto contribuire alla redazione di questo testo, senza alcuna pretesa di essere la parola definitiva sui volumi in questione. Spero che questo lavoro possa essere utile a chi, appassionato di letture militari, è alla ricerca di opere che trattano un argomento in particolare.

  • National Museums in Luxembourg Felicity Bodenstein
    Building National Museums in Europe 1750-2010. Conference proceedings from EuNaMus, European National Museums: Identity Politics, the Uses of the Past and the European Citizen, Bologna 28-30 April 2011. Peter Aronsson & Gabriella Elgenius (eds) EuNaMus Report No 1. Published by Linköping University Electronic Press: http://www.ep.liu.se/ecp_home/index.en.aspx?issue=064 © The Author. National Museums in Luxembourg Felicity Bodenstein Summary In 1913, English travel writer Georges Renwick, described Luxembourg as “a curious experiment in nation-making”, (quoted by Pit, 2010: 1). Indeed, politically and geographically it is an exceptional nation-state: the only remaining sovereign Grand Duchy in Europe, it is also one of its smallest members, with a population of half a million inhabitants making the country, as a whole, less populous than most European capital cities. This small country is host to three languages, French, German and Luxembourgish (officially recognized as a distinct language, not just a German dialect, from 1919 onwards), making it an area of great linguistic cultural diversity. In terms of nation-building it has been influenced both by the French and by the German nation- building process and nationalist thinking. The comparably small size of Luxembourg allows for a relatively easy and precise study of the processes that established this ‘imagined community’, to employ the famous term used by Benedict Anderson. Its desire to identify and yet differentiate itself from the larger countries that surround it has lead Luxembourg to develop a strong sense of European identity as a means of establishing itself as an international player and partner; a strategy that can be observed in the creation of some its most recent national museums.
