American Presidency: A Glorious Burden

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bunch, Lonnie G. / Crew, Spencer R. / Hirsch, Mark G., PUBLISHER: Smithsonian Books, This lavishly illustrated volume recounts the evolution of the presidency, from the age of George Washington until today. Drawing from the vast collections of the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History, it provides a revealing glimpse of the culture, particularly the material culture, of the presidency. Using objects as varied as Thomas Jefferson's portable desk, Abraham Lincoln's stovepipe hat, a Teddy Bear named for Theodore Roosevelt, Franklin D. Roosevelt's pince-nez, and a drum played during John E Kennedy's funeral, the book explores how the presidency has changed, and how presidential administrations have shaped -- and been shaped by -- relationships with the American people. Advertisements, movies, and television programs are also invoked to show how popular culture has informed Americans' collective memory of the presidency. The American Presidency accompanies a permanent exhibition of the same name at the Smithsonian's National Museum of American History.

Air Warfare in the Missile Age

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Nordeen, Lon O. / Boyne, Walter J., PUBLISHER: Smithsonian Books (DC), Lon O. Nordeen has completely updated his chronicle of military aviation's evolving role in warfare, now covering the major conflicts of the past four decades. He presents the historical and political background of each conflict and includes in-depth discussions of the aircraft, weapons, tactics, training, new systems, and other factors that influenced the outcome of each war. New and existing chapters have been enhanced with information based on recently declassified material--especially regarding Vietnam--and new sources in Egypt, Israel, and the former Soviet Union. As "smart" bombs have become more successful in reducing the risks for pilots and frontline troops, air-missile warfare has become the central player in military conflicts. "Air Warfare in the Missile Age, Second Edition, " is a valuable resource for understanding the evolution of modern air warfare.

On the Extent and Aims of a National Museum of Natural

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Owen, Richard, PUBLISHER: Cambridge University Press, A significant limitation on the development of zoology, botany and palaeontology in the mid-nineteenth century was the absence of a centralised collection of specimens. Appointed superintendent of the British Museum's natural history departments in , the distinguished biologist Richard Owen () quickly realised the need to make various scattered samples more readily available for study, and began campaigning for a new, national museum with unprecedented space and resources. This book is the text of one of his speeches to the Royal Institution, given in and first published in . He argues against the usual practice of exhibiting only one type form for each genus, provides possible floor plans, and presents case studies across the zoological field which show the limitations of the then current system. He also stresses a new idea, that such a museum should aim not only to help scientists, but to educate the general public.
