Nicolaus von Below

Heavy Paperback (2 to 4 lbs)

The Memoirs of Hitler's Luftwaffe Adjutant

This is the personal account of a Luftwaffe aide always at HitlerÕs side from 1937 until the last days in Berlin, now published for the first time in English. Nicolaus von Below was a 29-year-old pilot when Goering selected him for the position of HitlerÕs Luftwaffe adjutant. He was with Hitler at every stage as the Second World War unfolded. His observations tell of HitlerÕs responses to momentous events as well as military decisions and policy-making at Fhrer Headquarters. This is a superb source describing life in HitlerÕs inner circle, relied upon on by Gitta Sereny in her biography of Albert Speer. He provides fascinating insight into how Hitler planned the invasions of Poland and Russia, what he thought of Britain and America, why he placed his faith in the V-1 and V-2 projects, how others dealt with him, and much more. Von Below was present at the assassination attempt in July 1944, and records the effect on Hitler and his followers. Von Below was the last of HitlerÕs close military entourage to emerge from the bunker alive. His frank memoir will appeal to anyone interested in how Hitler ran his war. He was denounced to the British in 1946 and imprisoned as a material witness at Nuremberg, until being discharged in 1947.

Professional manual used in instruction of interview and interrogation 

A Professional Manual and Guide

This manual is designed to teach criminal interrogators, professional investigators, and insurance examiners the skills they need to secure airtight statements and confessions from uncooperative witnesses and suspects. The authors reveal dozens of detailed methods which they have used to obtain precise and relevant information during questioning sessions -- the kind of information that has already led to the recovery of nearly $14,000,000 worth of stolen property. The way in which a question is asked is the primary tool in any interview and this guide furnishes the skill-building techniques that virtually guarantee precise and relevant information flow from subjects. Concentrating on a systematic approach to effective interrogation, this manual explores such vital areas as: how to recognize when a suspect is ready to confess; how to handle a witness who deliberately withholds information; how to tell when a subject fears self-incrimination; how to obtain statements that hold up under the most severe legal scrutiny; how to break through a subject's defense barriers and expose concealed facts; how to interrogate a suspect influenced by alcohol, drugs or fatigue; and how to make sure the individual's legal rights are not infringed upon. In addition, there is an entire chapter dedicated to the professional code of ethics and standards for interviews and interrogators. Rules of evidence and the factors of admissibility, relevancy and competency are explored in depth.

Break the 12 Habits Holding You Back from Your Next Raise, Promotion, or Job

Ready to take the next step in your career . . . but not sure what's holding you back? Read on. Leadership expert Sally Helgesen and bestselling leadership coach Marshall Goldsmith have trained thousands of high achievers--men and women--to reach even greater heights. Again and again, they see that women face specific and different roadblocks from men as they advance in the workplace. In fact, the very habits that helped women early in their careers can hinder them as they move up. Simply put, what got you here won't get you there . . . and you might not even realize your blind spots until it's too late. Are you great with the details? To rise, you need to do less and delegate more. Are you a team player? To advance, you need to take credit as easily as you share it. Are you a star networker? Leaders know a network is no good unless you know how to use it. Sally and Marshall identify the 12 habits that hold women back as they seek to advance, showing them why what worked for them in the past might actually be sabotaging their future success. Building on Marshall's classic best seller What Got You Here Won't Get You There, their new book How Women Rise is essential reading for any woman who is ready to advance to the next level.

Our Summer in a Bomber Factory

In 1943 two spirited young teachers decided to do their part for the war effort by spending their summer vacation working the swing shift on a B-24 production line at a San Diego bomber plant. Entering a male-dominated realm of welding torches and bomb bays, they learned to use tools that they had never seen before, live with aluminum shavings in their hair, and get along with supervisors and coworkers from all walks of life. They also learned that wearing their factory slacks on the street caused men to treat them in a way for which their "dignified schoolteacher-hood" hadn't prepared them. At times charming, hilarious, and incredibly perceptive, Slacks and Calluses brings into focus an overlooked part of the war effort, one that forever changed the way the women were viewed in America.

Jon Meacham

In this special illustrated edition of the #1 New York Times bestselling Thomas Jefferson- The Art of Power by Pulitzer Prize-winning author Jon Meacham, young readers will learn about the life and political philosophy of one of our Founding Fathers.

Thomas Jefferson was the third president of the United States. He was one of the authors of the Declaration of Independence. But he was also a lawyer and an ambassador, an inventor and a scientist. He had a wide range of interests and hobbies, but his consuming interest was the survival and success of the United States.

This book contains a note from Meacham and over 100 archival illustrations, as well as sections throughout the text about subjects such as the Boston Tea Party, the Library of Congress, and Napoleon Bonaparte. Additional materials include a time line; a family tree; a Who's Who in Jefferson's world; sections on Jefferson's original writings and correspondence, "inventions," interests, places in Jefferson's world, finding Jefferson in the United States today, additional reading, organizations, and websites; notes; a bibliography; and an index. This adaptation, ideal for those interested in American presidents, biographies, and the founding of the American republic, is an excellent example of informational writing and reflects Meacham's extensive research using primary source material.
