The Peking Letter: A Novel of the Chinese Civil War

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Topping, Seymour, PUBLISHER: PublicAffairs, In this historical novel of the Chinese civil war, a young American scholar, Eric Jensen, who is studying ancient Chinese philosophy and art, falls in love with a Chinese revolutionary and is unexpectedly drawn by her into a desperate struggle to save Peking from destruction. Jensen's journey takes him across remote battlefields where the armies of Mao Tse-tung and Chiang Kai-shek are locked in enormous battles, through allies under Communist siege, and along the byways of old Peking from imperial palaces to elegant brothels. As he and his Chinese love pursue their underground mission, the Central Intelligence Agency also embroils Jensen in a bitter ideological confrontation in the United States over China policy. Seymour Topping, a renowned journalist who covered the Chinese civil war, creates in this novel a vivid, panoramic picture of revolutionary China. The Peking Letter is at once a love story, a spy thriller, and a remarkable view of a society on the brink of social and cultural transformation.

Portrait of a Port: Boston,

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Bunting, William H. / Bunting, W. H., PUBLISHER: Belknap Press, Two hundred and thirty-four striking photographs of the port of Boston combine with interpretive commentary to recapture the flavor, buoyancy, and excitement of the city's years as one of the two or three great American ports. After the Civil War Boston underwent a radical and successful transformation from a declining mercantile home port to an important and competitive modern seaport. At the same time the transition from sail to steam was taking place. Photographic studies of deep water sail and steam vessels, naval ships, fishing boats, catboats, tugs, schooners, and sloops, and of the picturesque wharves--all create a kaleidoscopic visual history of these years of change. The volume offers, as well, some of the most distinguished early work in photography, including the widest selection ever published of photographs by pioneer marine photographer Nathaniel Stebbins.

The Mississippi State Sovereignty Commission: Civil Rights

ISBN: , SKU: , AUTHOR: Katagiri, Yasuhiro, PUBLISHER: University Press of Mississippi, In , two years after the U.S. Supreme Court unanimously outlawed legally imposed racial segregation in public schools, Mississippi created the State Sovereignty Commission. This was the executive agency established "to protect the sovereignty of the State of Mississippi... from encroachment thereon by the Federal Government." The code word encroachment implied the state's strong resolve to preserve and protect the racial status quo. In the nomenclature the formality of the word sovereignty supposedly lent dignity to the actions of the Commission. For all practical purposes the Sovereignty Commission intended to wage this Deep South state's monolithic resistance to desegregation and to the ever-intensifying crusade for civil rights in Mississippi. In the papers of the Commission were made available for examination. No other state has such extensive and detailed documentary records from a similar agency. Exposed to public light, they unmasked the Commission as a counterrevolutionary department for political and social intrigue that infringed on individual constitutional rights and worked toward discrediting the civil rights movement by tarnishing the reputations of activists. As the eyes of the citizenry studied the records, the Commission slid from sovereign and segregated to unsavory and abominable. This book, the first to give a comprehensive history of this watchdog agency, shows how, to this day, the Sovereignty Commission remains obscure, debated, and for many citizens a star chamber of the most sinister sort. Why was the Commission created? What were some of the political and social climates that initiated its creation? What were its activities during its seventeen years? What was its impact on the course of Mississippi and southern history? Drawing on the newly opened materials at the Mississippi Department of Archives and History, this examination gives answers to such questions and traces the vicissitudes that took the Commission from governmental limelight to public opprobrium. This book also looks at the attitudes of the state's white citizenry, who, upon realizing the Commission's failure, saw the importance of a nonviolent accommodation of civil rights. Yasuhiro Katagiri, an associate professor of American history and government at Tokai University in Kanagawa, Japan, has been published in such periodicals as "American Review" and "49th Parallel: An Interdisciplinary Journal of North American Studies."
