This book examines Protestant loss of power and self-confidence in Ireland since 1795.

New Perspectives on Civil War-Era Kentucky
ISBN: 9780813197463 / Angielski / Twarda / 2023 / 366 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 12 dni roboczych. As a Unionist but also proslavery state during the American Civil War, Kentucky occupied a contentious space both politically and geographically. In many ways, its pragmatic attitude toward compromise left it in a cultural no-man's-land. The constant negotiation between the state's nationalistic and Southern identities left many Kentuckians alienated and conflicted. Lincoln referred to Kentucky as the crown jewel of the Union slave states due to its sizable population, agricultural resources, and geographic position, and these advantages, coupled with the state's difficult relationship to...

Pick up any holy book, and you'll find an entertaining collection of silly fantasies-yet millions of people believe them and base their entire lives around them.
