讀書共和國podcast 每週選書 BOOK of the Week 030 燎原文化查理主編介紹《裝甲先鋒》 主持/吳家恆 來賓/查理(燎原文化主編) 播出日期 2023/8/4 Fri 裝甲先鋒:美國戰車兵從突出部、科隆到魯爾的作戰經歷 Spearhead:An American Tank Gunner, His Enemy, and a Collision of Lives in World War II 電子書 優惠價525元 平裝 作者: 亞當.馬科斯 Adam Makos 譯者: 李思平 出版社:燎原出版 出版日期:2023/08/09 語言:繁體中文 定價:750元 佔據紐約時報、華爾街日報、洛杉磯時報、今日美國暢銷書榜 這是一個關於軍人與平民、豹式與潘興,以及五場重大戰役的故事 戰鬥場面媲美《泥濘中的老虎》,感情豐富不輸《擲彈兵》 是戰車迷不可錯過的好書 紐約時報暢銷書榜作家亞當‧馬科斯的最新力作,揭開掩埋近80年的歷史謎團。故事的源頭是一段由美軍戰地攝影師所拍攝的戰地新聞報導開始的。這段後來被人們稱為「科隆戰車大決鬥」的新聞影片,記錄了美軍新興的潘興戰車,在科隆大教堂前廣場,成功將德國的強大鋼鐵洪流——豹式戰車被美軍打爆的過程。其效果不亞於陸戰隊在硫磺島立起國旗的畫面,成為美國家喻戶曉的戰場紀錄片段。 馬科斯帶你重回歐洲戰場,讓你體會弱勢戰車兵面對強勢德國優勢裝甲的際遇。本書主角克拉倫斯.史墨爾以及他的同車組組員,在二戰期間歐戰尾聲的科隆大教堂前廣場與林蔭大道之間,與德軍戰車交火時,發生了史稱「戰車對決」的史詩對決,從冒險在現場拍攝紀錄的攝影師的鏡頭下,這段短短不到一分鐘的畫面,讓史墨爾以及他的組員,在二戰戰史上留下了永垂的故事。 史墨爾是一名來自美國賓州的年輕小伙子,身材高大,但給人溫柔的感覺。在希特勒侵略歐洲之後加入美國陸軍,分配到有「矛尖師」之稱號的美國陸軍第三裝甲師擔任裝填手。他參戰是為了盡身為國民的義務,一點都不想殺人,這個位置正好可以達成自己不想的殺人念頭。 然而在一次緊急狀況下,全車只有史墨爾處在可以射擊的位置,意外讓他擊潰了一輛德軍戰車,從而改變了他的作戰經歷。 作者從美軍第三裝甲師投入突出部之役的時間點講起,將「老鷹七號」的車組員的個人故事一路講到科隆戰役,乃至盟軍對魯爾工業區的口袋大推進作戰。針對故事的主角克拉倫斯‧史墨爾曾參與的這些作戰行動,馬科斯都做了最詳盡的採訪與寫作。 多年之後,在德國記者的協助之下,德軍戰車兵古斯塔夫,最後與當時90歲高齡的克拉倫斯,在命運改變一瞬間的科隆街頭,雙方存活的戰車組員第一次見到了對方,並且握手言歡,成為了朋友,並以「戰友」互稱彼此。他們的友誼最後是通過網路的方式持續下去,直到四年後古斯塔夫罹癌過世為止。史墨爾則在2022年10月過世,享年99歲,跟其他戰友一起到另一個世界再相聚。 作者流暢的文筆,完整展現出美軍戰車兵在二戰期間每一天所面對的張力、死亡,以及所展現的勇氣。這段關於勇氣和同袍情誼的動人故事,讓馬科斯一躍成為書寫戰爭歷史的暢銷作家。 留言告訴我你對這一集的想法: https://open.firstory.me/user/cl6aqx0u8045801sb731bcdqi/comments Powered by Firstory Hosting

The 48 Laws of Power by Robert Greene (Full Audiobook) Robert Greene Amoral, cunning, ruthless, and instructive, this multi-million-copy New York Times bestseller is the definitive manual for anyone interested in gaining, observing, or defending against ultimate control – from the author of The Laws of Human Nature.In the book that People magazine proclaimed “beguiling” and “fascinating,” Robert Greene and Joost Elffers have distilled three thousand years of the history of power into 48 essential laws by drawing from the philosophies of Machiavelli, Sun Tzu, and Carl Von Clausewitz and also from the lives of figures ranging from Henry Kissinger to P.T. Barnum.Some laws teach the need for prudence (“Law 1: Never Outshine the Master”), others teach the value of confidence (“Law 28: Enter Action with Boldness”), and many recommend absolute self-preservation (“Law 15: Crush Your Enemy Totally”). Every law, though, has one thing in common: an interest in t Tao Te Ching by Laozi (Author), Stephen Mitchell (Full Audiobook) Laozi Lao-tzu's Tao Te Ching, or Book of the Way, is the classic manual on the art of living, and one of the wonders of the world. In eighty-one brief chapters, the Tao Te Ching looks at the basic predicament of being alive and gives advice that imparts balance and perspective, a serene and generous spirit. This book is about wisdom in action. It teaches how to work for the good with the effortless skill that comes from being in accord with the Tao (the basic principle of the universe) and applies equally to good government and sexual love; to child rearing, business, and ecology. Stephen Mitchell's bestselling version has been widely acclaimed as a gift to contemporary culture.
