Although Lee surrendered at Appomattox Court House in April, 1865, some Confederates refused to abandon their cause. "Fallen ""Guidon," originally published in 1962 by Jack Rittenhouse's Stagecoach Press in 1962, is the gripping story of one such group of men who, rather than surrender, boldly decided to follow their cavalry flag or guidon south and transplant their imperialistic vision in the troubled soil of Mexico.

Mammon and the Pursuit of Empire Abridged Edition: The Economics of British Imperialism
ISBN: 9780521357234 / Angielski / Miękka / 1988 / 320 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Historians have so far made few attempts to assess directly the costs and benefits of Britain's investment in empire.

What were the social costs of maintaining the empire? Who received the profits, and who bore the costs? The authors show that colonial finance did not dominate British capital markets; returns from empire investment were not high in comparison to earnings in the domestic and foreign...

Secret History of Confederate Diplomacy Abroad
ISBN: 9780700614110 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 256 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. One of the South's most urgent priorities in the Civil War was obtaining the recognition of foreign governments. Edwin De Leon, a Confederate propagandist charged with wooing Britain and France, opens up this vital dimension of the war in the earliest known account by a Confederate foreign agent. First published in the New York Citizen in 1867-68, De Leon's memoir subsequently sank out of sight until its recent rediscovery by William C. Davis, one of the Civil War field's true luminaries. Both reflective and engaging, it brims with insights and immediacy lacking in other works, covering...
