Before Jim Crow: The Politics of Race in Postemancipation
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Dailey, Jane Elizabeth, PUBLISHER: University of North Carolina Press, Long before the Montgomery bus boycott ushered in the modern civil rights movement, black and white southerners struggled to forge interracial democracy in America. This innovative book examines the most successful interracial coalition in the nineteenth-century South, Virginia's Readjuster Party, and uncovers a surprising degree of fluidity in postemancipation southern politics. Melding social, cultural, and political history, Jane Dailey chronicles the Readjusters' efforts to foster political cooperation across the color line. She demonstrates that the power of racial rhetoric, and the divisiveness of racial politics, derived from the everyday experiences of individual Virginians--from their local encounters on the sidewalk, before the magistrate's bench, in the schoolroom. In the process, she reveals the power of black and white southerners to both create and resist new systems of racial discrimination. The story of the Readjusters shows how hard white southerners had to work to establish racial domination after emancipation, and how passionately black southerners fought each and every infringement of their rights as Americans.

A Memoir of Jane Austen: And Other Family Recollections
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Austen-Leigh, James Edward / Sutherland, Kathryn, PUBLISHER: Oxford University Press, USA, James Edward Austen-Leigh's Memoir of his aunt Jane Austen was published in , over fifty years after her death. Together with the shorter recollections of James Edward's two sisters, Anna Lefroy and Caroline Austen, the Memoir remains the prime authority for her life and continues to inform all subsequent accounts. These are family memories, the record of Jane Austen's life shaped and limited by the loyalties, reserve, and affection of nieces and nephews recovering in old age the outlines of the young aunt they had each known. They still remembered the shape of her bonnet and the tone of her voice, and their first-hand accounts bring her vividly before us. Their declared partiality also raises fascinating issues concerning biographical truth, and the terms in which all biography functions. This edition brings together for the first time these three memoirs, and also includes Jane's brother Henry Austen's "Biographical Notice" of and his less known "Memoir" of .

We've got a gent as tall as a tree, a lady with a beard, and don't miss your chance to see the Wild Albinos of Bora Bora Ask Madame Doula to peer into your future (only two dollars more if you want to know how you're going to die). And between these covers behold the greatest act of our display--Portia Remini, the strangest of the menagerie because she's a 'normal' among the freaks, searching for a new beginning on the bally, far away from McGreavey's Home for Wayward Girls, where Mister watches and waits. He said he would always find Portia, said she could never leave... Oh, it's not for the faint of heart folks. If you're prone to nightmares or you've got a weak ticker, you'd best move on. Within these pages lies a tale of abandonment, loss, misfortune for the rich and glory for the poor (and a little murder doesn't hurt). It's a story for the ages, but be warned: once you enter the Wonder Show you will never be the same.

Wild Spirits
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Jordan, Rosa, PUBLISHER: Dundurn Group, Eleven-year-old Danny Ryan and 19-year-old Wendy Marshall think their friendship is only about looking after two baby raccoons that Danny has rescued. But when a bank holdup upsets Wendy so much that she can hardly stand to be around people, she leaves her job as a teller, retreats to a farm, and surrounds herself with injured and orphaned wildlife. Danny, neglected at home and considered weird in a town where other boys are into hunting, finds peace on the farm, too, plus excitement, as he and Wendy adopt ever more exotic animals such as llamas, bobcats, a serval, an ocelot, and a blind lynx. Over time the two friends develop a bond that goes beyond care of the animals to caring for each other. As it turns out, Wendy rescues not just wildlife but Danny, as well. What's more, the bank robbers are still at large and still a threat, and Danny, now 14, must act to save Wendy's life.

Running for the Hills: A Family Story
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Clare, Horatio, PUBLISHER: John Murray General Publishing Division, Before Horatio Clare was born, his parents fell in love with a place -- a remote sheep farm in Wales, physically and in every other way far from the lives they were forging as young professionals in London. The farm was high up a mountain, nearly impassable in winter. The neighbors were surly, or perhaps just unused to foreigners. But the setting was breathtaking, and soon it changed Jenny's and Robert's lives.What began as the somewhat conventional dream of a young, ambitious couple from London looking for a weekend home quickly became a different vision. Horatio's mother, romantic and tenacious, found it impossible to leave the fierce and beautiful land. She abandoned her job, her social world, and eventually her marriage to raise her two sons in the company of a herd of sheep, a few dogs, and the badgers, foxes, and mice who had prior claim to her new world. While other boys were going to films and listening to rock music, Horatio was weaning ewes and watching weather and surviving the furor of irascible neighbors. His childhood was marked by wonder and joy, and it is that wonderment that he bestows upon the reader as he recounts the story of the ancient, sometimes brutal, way of life on a hill farm. This wise book is a moving tribute to his mother, both beautiful and brave.
The Republic of Armenia, Vol. IV: Between Crescent and
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hovannisian, Richard G., PUBLISHER: University of California Press, With these two volumes, Richard Hovannisian completes his definitive history of the first independent Armenian state in modern times and provides the basis for comparison with the new Armenian republic established in after seven decades of Soviet rule. Based on Armenian, Russian, Turkish, German, Italian, French, and English-language archival materials, these volumes provide the first comprehensive, multidimensional analysis of this critical turning point in Armenian history--a period clouded in misinformation and controversy. Volume Four examines the final months of the Armenia republic and the destructive impact of a Soviet-Turkish entente on the goal of a united, independent Armenia. The Turkish-Armenian war from September to December culminated in the loss of half of the Armenian republic and the Sovietization of what was left. The experiment in Armenian independence had failed; and the Armenian people, unable to gather together in a common homeland, remained scattered among communities in the diaspora and in the Soviet Union. At the time, no one could predict that a new opportunity for independence would unfold before the end of the century.

The Russian Annexation of the Crimea
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Fisher, Alan W. / Fisher, Nancy Ed., PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, The Black Sea and the coastal areas have played an important role in the history of eastern Europe and western Asia. Byzantium, Kiev Rus, the Golden Horde, Lithuania, Poland, the Ottoman Empire and Muscovy all tried to control parts of its area at various periods in history. From for three hundred years the Ottoman Turks controlled the Black Sea and the lands surrounding it. In Catherine annexed the Crimean peninsula, with its Muslim Tatar population, to the Russian Empire after a major Russian military victory over the Ottomans. The effect on the Ottoman Empire was significant. It lost its Tatar military forces when traditional means of securing recruits for the army had broken down; lost its secure northern frontier - the route to Istanbul itself was now open; it lost, for the first time, a Muslim province. This book provides a scholarly and balanced account of an important part of the transformation of the Muscovite state into a multinational empire. It also contributes to our understanding of the decline of the Ottoman Empire.
A Word or Two
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Andreae, Christopher, PUBLISHER: PublishAmerica, A walrus sort of book. Remember Lewis Carrollas verse? aaThe time has come, a the Walrus said, / aTo talk of many things: / Of shoes a and ships a and sealing-wax a / Of cabbages a and kings...aa In this book of miscellaneous essays, to , the author makes wry, funny, touching, familiar, and unexpected observations of all sorts of things that have occurred during his time spent living variously in city, country, and suburbia. (His time living on Mars goes discreetly unmentioned.) His odd mix of unpretentiously contentious themes ranges from a brusque bookseller who turns out to be affable, to a suicidal sheep who opts for life after all, to an eccentric schoolmaster who wags his finger while quoting T. S. Eliot, to the questionable state of Queen Elizabethas fingernails. Discombobulating but rarely disastrous encounters abound a with precocious six-year-olds, mischievous mice, platefuls of inedible seashells, and a quiet American in Edinburgh looking for a girl heas never met. A good bedtime, or anytime, read written by an adept wordsmith.

Free Range Christianity
ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Hellier, Graham, PUBLISHER: Authorhouse, This book is for those who enjoy the freedom of the open country. It is for those who can feel the wind 'that blows where it wills'. It is for those who are glad to keep company with 'fellow travellers' of every kind. It is not for those fearful of doubt or embarrassed by faith. It is not for those who put their entire trust in Church and Bible rather than in the living God, who has gone before them.............................................................................................................. If there is a God, it's going to be a lot bigger and a whole lot more incomprehensible than any theologian of any religion has ever proposed." - attributed to Richard Dawkins, author of "The God Delusion." If he is unaware, then it is Christians who have failed. We have be-littled God, pinning him between the pages of a black book, confining him behind stone walls and reducing him in our sacraments. It is time to range free again..................................................................................................................................... For information. For reflection. For discussion. Something for everyone, except those who do not wish to be disturbed. The canvas is wide. There are far horizons with quotations drawn from a thousand voices.........................................................................................

In pictures filled with wit and whimsy, drama, mystery, and magic, Lisbeth Zwerger transports us to the darkest reaches and brightest beauty of this fairy-tale world.
