Adobe Photoshop CS2: Photographers’ Guide is aimed squarely at
those
who
want
to
use
photography
creatively
to
produce
compelling
images, and want to master all the tools available to them. The
emphasis
here
is
on
both
traditional
and
leading-
edge
photographic
techniques, and how to reproduce or enhance them in Photoshop.

a
slaughter
recorded in our annals. Thus the Roman historian
Ammianus Marcellinus recorded the battle of Adrianople, which
spelled the beginning of the end of the Roman Empire. Such a
crushing Roman defeat by Gothic cavalry proved to the Empire, as
well
as
to
the
Goths
themselves,
that the migratory barbarians were a
force
to
be
reckoned
with.
This
book
tells
the
story
of
the
misguided
Roman plans and the surprise attack of Gothic cavalry, and puts
forward
the
most
recent
theories
as
to
the true location of the
battlefield.
Advanced Linux 3D graphics programming
This
book
uses
Linux
as
the
implementation
platform.
The
free
operating
system
has
a
number
of
advantages
which make it ideal for
learning
and
programming
3D
graphics. The
most
important
advantage is accessibility: the free, open source nature of Linux

makes
it
possible
for
any
programmer
to
have
access
to
a
top-quality
operating
system and development environment. This open nature
has encouraged the development of massive amounts of free
software (where free refers not only to cost, but mainly to the freedom
to study and modify the source code), including software important for
3D
graphics.
Therefore,
Linux
offers
any
programmer
the
chance
to
get
involved
with
3D
graphics
programming
today,
at
no
cost,
without
forcing
the
programmer
to
either
pay
thousands
of
dollars
in software
licensing
fees
or
to
spend
literally
man-years
of
software
development
time
creating
customized
tools.
Linux
already
offers
the
tools
you
need
to
do
serious
3D
programming—and
the
freedom
to
use, learn from, and modify these tools.

In that book, initial efforts were made to link together three current
phenomena:
software
evolution,
UML,
and
XML.
In
this
book,
focus
will be on the practical side of linking them, that is, how UML and
XML
and
their
related
methods/tools
can
assist
software
evolution
in
practice.

Tamerlane or Timur-i-Lenk ('Timur the Lame') is one of the most
extraordinary
conquerors
in
history.
In
the
late 14th century his
armies
seized
huge
territories
from
the
borders
of
Mongolia
to
Palestine
and
Anatolia.
His
passage
was
marked
by
massacres
that
outdid
even
those
of
the
Mongols
for
sheer
savagery.
Timur's
career
was
unequalled
since
Alexander
the
Great
in
terms of constant
battlefield success. Only in his youth, while recovering his family
estates
south
of
Samarqand,
did
he
face
occasional
defeat.
This
title
tells
the
remarkable
story
of
Timur
and details the organisation,
tactics, arms and armour of his all-conquering army.

Henry
V's
forces
were
tired, hungry, and faced a French army
three
to
six
times
more
numerous.
However,
they
possessed
several
advantages, and English success resulted from the combination of
heavily
armoured
men-at-arms
with
troops
armed
with
the
infamous
longbow
-
the
havoc
this
weapon
wreaked
was
crucial.
Using
original

evidence,
including
the
surviving
French

and
the
accounts
of
men
present
in
both
armies,
this

discusses
the lead-up to the battle, the tactical dispositions of the two forces
and the reasons for the ultimate English success.

When the Southern states seceded to form their own government in
1861,
one
of
their
first
moves
was
to
organise
an
army.
The
South's
fighting
men
served
from
the
time
of
their
enlistment
until
the
end
of
the war, receiving poor rations, and even worse clothing - and this
despite the fact that one of the first steps taken by the new army was
to design a uniform and establish standards for accoutrements and
weapons.
In
this
first
of
five
volumes
examining
American
Civil
War
armies, Philip Katcher profiles the uniforms issued by the national
Confederate government to its artillery, cavalry and infantry troops.

raised in its brief history; and it would remain the largest ever raised
until World War I. In all, 2,772,408 men served in some branch or
other of the US Army. This detailed work by Philip Katcher is a
comprehensive
guide to the uniforms, accoutrements, insignia and
weapons of the Union Troops who fought the American Civil War,

eight full page colour plates by Ron Volstad.

At the time of the American Civil War, with two million men under
arms,
a
US
Army
that
in
pre-war
days
had
depended
upon
a
minute
number of technical troops now required virtually an army of
specialists
alone.
Special
sharpshooters
were
recruited
for
skirmishing duty; men whose wounds would have led to their
discharge in the past now found themselves guarding important posts
in
the
Veteran
Reserve
Corps;
and
large
numbers
of
civilians
found
themselves
in
uniform as members of the Telegraph or Hospital
Corps.
Philip
Katcher
examines
the
organisation
and
uniforms
of
the
specialist troops who served in the armies of both sides.
