Interpreting American History: Reconstruction
ISBN: 9781606352922 / Angielski / Miękka / 2016 / 168 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Writing in 1935 in his brilliant and brooding Black Reconstruction, W. E. B. Du Bois lamented America's post-Civil War era as a missed opportunity to reconstruct the war-torn nation in deed as well as in word.

Interpreting American History: Reconstruction provides a primer on... Writing in 1935 in his brilliant and brooding Black Reconstruction, W. E. B.

"An Old Creed for the New South: " "Proslavery Ideology and Historiography, 1865 1918" details the slavery debate from the Civil War through World War I.

After the Civil War, Americans in both the North and the South continued to...

Edited by the award-winning historian John David Smith...

While we may be more familiar with certain elements, we may not realize the full extent of their influence or be too preoccupied to see how they relate to form the larger whole of how we are shaped. This book looks one-by-one at several ways in which...

Jackie Robinson: An Integrated Life
ISBN: 9781538110201 / Angielski / Miękka / 2018 / 184 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych.

Brooklyn Dodgers executive Branch Rickey famously told the young Robinson that he was "looking for a ballplayer with guts enough not to fight back." J. Christopher Schutz reveals the real Robinson, as a more defiant, combative spirit than simply...
