The Farm on the North Talbot Road
ISBN: 9780803261891 / Angielski / Miękka / 2001 / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. As the family farm of yesterday steadily loses ground to the corporate farm of tomorrow, pundits and plain folks alike bemoan the loss of the homely, down-to-earth rural life that few actually know or remember anymore. Allan G. Bogue is a notable exception. A legendary agricultural, political, and economic historian, and one of only three historians ever elected to the National Academy of Sciences, Bogue has for the last fifty years written about the political and economic forces shaping agriculture. And he himself has roots in the family farm roots he traces in this memoir that is both a...

The Congressman's Civil War
ISBN: 9780521354059 / Angielski / Twarda / 1989 / 210 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. In the historical literature on the Civil War, the President, the generals, and the cabinet secretaries have won the war of words. Of the hundreds of men who served in the House of Representatives during this great struggle, only a handful typically appear in general discussions of the period. Yet without a deeper understanding of the contributions of the members of the Congress to the successful prosecution of the war, we cannot fully appreciate the desperate nature of that war and its significance in the building of the nation. This book explores important aspects of the Civil War from the...

From Prairie To Corn Belt: Farming on the Illinois and Iowa Prairies in the Nineteenth Century, 2nd Edition
ISBN: 9781566638791 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 328 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Beginning in 1820, settlers broke the tall grass prairies of mid-America. By the 1870s they had begun to use the term "Corn Belt" to describe much of the region. In From Prairie to Corn Belt, Allan G. Bogue chronicles this remarkable transformation and challenges the view that the post-Civil War period constituted thirty years of unrelieved agricultural depression. His book remains the only study of Midwestern agricultural development that focuses on the farmers themselves, the entire range of production problems they had to solve on their land, and the diversity of their responses.

In Part One, Bogue investigates the backgrounds of the senators and the institutional structure of the Senate, and he examines the character of leadership exercised in the Senate chamber.
