To Serve the Living
ISBN: 9780674036215 / Angielski / Twarda / 2010 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. From antebellum slavery to the twenty-first century, African American funeral directors have orchestrated funerals or "homegoing" ceremonies with dignity and pageantry. As entrepreneurs in a largely segregated trade, they were among the few black individuals in any community who were economically independent and not beholden to the local white power structure. Most important, their financial freedom gave them the ability to support the struggle for civil rights and, indeed, to serve the living as well as bury the dead. During the Jim Crow era, black funeral directors relied on...

Early Georgia Wills and Settlements of Estates: Wilkes County
ISBN: 9780806307350 / Angielski / Miękka / 2009 / 88 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. The records in this excellent little book are supplementary to Mrs. Grace G. Davidson's Early Records of Georgia: Wilkes County (1932, 1933). The records--principally wills and settlements of estates, but also deeds of gift, inheritances, and marriage bonds--have more than ordinary genealogical significance, as they name not only principals but also beneficiaries (showing relationships), as well as witnesses and executors. The material is mostly of the period dating from the late 18th to the early 19th centuries and identifies nearly 5,000 early Georgians.

Is Milton Better than Shakespeare?
ISBN: 9780674028326 / Angielski / Twarda / 2008 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 18-20 dni roboczych. With literature waning in the interest of so many, is Shakespeare the only poet the public can still appreciate? John Milton, as this book makes clear, speaks more powerfully to the eternal questions and to the important concerns of our time. The Milton of this volume is an author for all Americans--conservative, liberal, radical--not only because he was a favorite of the founding fathers, his voice echoing through their texts and our very foundation, but also because his visionary writing embodies the aspirations that have guided Americans seeking ideals of ethical and spiritual...

ISBN: 9780674972001 / Angielski / Twarda / 2017 Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Joseph Stalin had been dead for three years when his successor, Nikita Khrushchev, stunned a closed gathering of Communist officials with a litany of his predecessor's abuses. Meant to clear the way for reform from above, Khrushchev's "Secret Speech" of February 25, 1956, shattered the myth of Stalin's infallibility. In a bid to rejuvenate the Party, Khrushchev had his report read out loud to members across the Soviet Union that spring. However, its message sparked popular demands for more information and greater freedom to debate. Moscow 1956: The Silenced Spring brings this...

The Oracle and the Curse

Condemned to hang after his raid on Harper's Ferry, John Brown prophesied that the crimes of a slave-holding land would be purged away only with blood. A study of omens, maledictions, and inspired invocations, The Oracle and the Curse examines how utterances such as Brown's shaped American literature between the Revolution and the Civil War. In nineteenth-century criminal trials, judges played the role of law's living oracles, but offenders were also given an opportunity to address the public. When the accused began to turn the tables on their judges, they did so not through...
