Dead in the Water Not all publicity is good publicity. Especially when the fake hijacking of the world's first self-sustaining vessel turns into the real deal. With the ship and its cargo being auctioned off to terrorists, Mack Bolan must rescue the hostages and destroy the vessel before it falls into even more dangerous hands. Joining Somali pirates on a raid gets Bolan on board, but getting off alive won't be so easy. Mercenaries and criminal foot soldiers have taken over, transforming the vessel into a minefield. Bolan will need to act quickly to take control, and with the extraction window closing, the Executioner is ready to turn this ship into the Titanic.

The Waco siege was a lengthy stand-off between the FBI, ATF, and members of the Branch Davidian cult in Waco, Texas. The Branch Davidians was a religious group led by David Koresh, an apocalyptic prophet who claimed to be the messiah. The FBI and ATF had been investigating the group for months, believing that they were illegally stockpiling weapons. On February 28, 1993, ATF officials arrived at the Branch Davidian compound to serve a search warrant and arrest Koresh. However, a gunfight broke out, leading to a 51-day siege that ended in tragedy. During the siege, the FBI and ATF made several unsuccessful attempts to end the stand-off peacefully. Negotiations with Koresh eventually broke down, and the FBI made the decision to end the siege by force, resulting in a violent fire that engulfed the compound. In total, 76 Branch Davidian members died, including Koresh and several children. The Waco siege became a controversial event in American history, with many questioning the FBI's tactics and the legality of the use of deadly force. The incident also highlighted the potential danger of religious cults and extremist groups.

On July 3rd, 1866 a Prussian army overwhelmed and defeated an Austrian army near the fortress city of Kniggrtz in a bloody battle that lasted all day. At a stroke, the foremost power in Germany and central Europe had been reduced to a second rate player. The event caused anxiety and alarm in the capitals of the western world. How was an upstart country like Prussia able to upset the balance of power in Europe? Only sixteen years before it had been put in its place by Austria with the treaty of Olmtz. Its performance as an Austrian ally had been less than stellar in the 2nd Schleswig War of 1864 despite its defeat of the Danes at Dppel. Yet within five years a Prussian led army would humble France and a Prussian King would be crowned Emperor of a united Germany. The history of the world would be changed forever. The story of this army is the subject of a new book by Bruce Bassett-Powell The Armies of BismarckÕs Wars Ð Prussia 1860-1867. He chronicles its growth from the end of the Napoleonic Wars to the reforms of the eighteen sixties followed by a full account of the wars against Denmark in 1864 and Austria in 1866. He shows how the confluence of three menÕs lives; King William I, Helmuth von Molkte and Otto von Bismarck provided the essential ingredients that created this victorious army. The growth and influence of the General Staff is examined along with the recruitment and training of officers and men. He fully describes the organization of the army and the fledgling navy as well as the weapons with which they fought. In particular he gives a detailed account of their dress and accoutrements accompanied by 24 full page color illustrations depicting over 70 uniforms.
