Bloody Breathitt: Politics and Violence in the Appalachian South
ISBN: 9780813161242 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 444 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. The notorious conflict between the Hatfield and the McCoy families of West Virginia and Kentucky is often remembered as America's most famous feud, but it was relatively brief and subdued compared to the violence in Breathitt County, Kentucky. From the Reconstruction period until the early twentieth century, Breathitt's 500 square miles of rugged upcountry land was known as "the darkest and bloodiest of all the dark and bloody feud counties" due to its considerable number of homicides, which were not always related to the factional conflicts that swept the region.

ISBN: 9781848934214 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 224 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. Before the 1832 Anatomy Act the only legal source of cadavers for medical use was the bodies of executed murderers. As anatomy became the dominant medical discipline of the nineteenth century, the need for bodies as a teaching tool increased exponentially. Hutton looks at Manchester and Oxford to provide a comparative history of anatomical study. Using the Anatomy Act as a focal point, she examines how these two cities dealt with the need for bodies over two centuries. The Appendix provides data relating to numbers of medical students and availability of bodies compiled directly from...
