Marshal Georgi Zhukov, Soviet officer in the Red Army,  played a decisive role the battles of Moscow, Stalingrad, and Kursk that brought down the Nazi regime. He was the first of the Allied generals to enter Berlin and took the German surrender. Zhukov had an equally eventful post-war career, sacked and banished twice, and wrongfully accused of treason. Since his death in Zhukov has been seen by many as the indispensable military leader of WWII, surpassing Eisenhower, Patton, Monty, and MacArthur.    A passion for books and a passion for collecting fine editions was the recipe that created the successful group of bookshops in Johannesburg called Bookdealers.

Subtitle: The Court of the Red Tsar Author: Simon Sebag Montefiore  Publisher: Phoenix () Edition: First Paperback Edition ISBN-10: ISBN-13: Condition: Very Good Binding: Softcover Pages: 720 Dimensions: 19.7 x 12.8 x 4.5 cm +++ by Simon Sebag Montefiore +++ The superb Simon Sebag Montefiore offers a composite picture of Stalin in extraordinary detail from his love of literature to his claim to complete amorality. The narcissistic psychopath who killed millions of people is revealed through countless interviews with Stalin's wives, granddaughters and servants. Any biography of a tyrant runs the risk of humanizing its subject to the point of appearing to mitigate his crimes. But Montefiore's intimate portrait actually throws the cold-hearted murderousness with which Stalin pursued and defended power into sharper relief. The book moves smoothly between detailed sketches of everyday life at the Kremlin and accounts of the paranoid and sanguinary scheming that determined Soviet politics. Just as strikingly, Montefiore shows how Stalin, a "master of friendships," used charm to win the support of members of the Party's inner circle. This haunting book gets us as close as we are likely to come to the man who believed that "the solution to every human problem was death" (From The New Yorker ).   A passion for books and a passion for collecting fine editions was the recipe that created the successful group of bookshops in Johannesburg called Bookdealers.

GENERAL SERVICE HEADDRESS BADGE, UNION OF SOUTH AFRICA ARMY, 1909 - 1919 Military badge, general service headdress badge, Union of South Africa Army, copper alloy, maker unknown, South Africa. Stamped gilded copper alloy badge of round wreath encircling the head of a springbok, around is legend in English and Afrikaans, UNION IS STRENGTH / EENDRACHT MAAKT MACHT, two hooks behind for attachment. Worn on headdress of the uniform at time of WWI, circa 1914. The badge was made in South Africa. The good quality of metal used in most of these badges indicates they were in the main made either immediately before World War I, or in the early stages when the expected duration of the war was greatly underestimated, and before the subsequent necessity of frugality in the use of materials was realised. Badges made later in the war were stamped from thinner gauge metal. Images are of the actual item/s on offer.
