Dirty Bomb
ISBN: 9780932440495 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 80 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 22 dni roboczych. Robin Behn called Mark Neely's first collection "nothing less than a mandala of the human spirit." Now, in Dirty Bomb, his formidable talents take on a wider and more public dimension. This book of poems explores life in 21st-century America, particularly the juxtaposition of intimate human relationships with the politics and violence of U.S. militarism, terrorism, and the threat of environmental apocalypse. Oil tankers leak, atrocities play out across the internet, "the present / always drags the past into the future." Yet Neely's piercing intelligence and dry wit keep the poems light on...

The Fate of Liberty: Abraham Lincoln and Civil Liberties
ISBN: 9780195080322 / Angielski / Miękka / 1992 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. If Abraham Lincoln was known as the Great Emancipator, he was also the only president to suspend the writ of habeas corpus. Indeed, Lincoln's record on the Constitution and individual rights has fueled a century of debate, from charges that Democrats were singled out for harrassment to Gore Vidal's depiction of Lincoln as an "absolute dictator." Now, in the Pulitzer Prize-winning The Fate of Liberty, one of America's leading authorities on Lincoln wades straight into this controversy, showing just who was jailed and why, even as he explores the whole range of Lincoln's constitutional...

ISBN: 9780674016101 / Angielski / Miękka / 2005 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. In 1863, Union soldiers from Illinois threatened to march from the battlefield to their state capital. Springfield had not been seized by the Rebels--but the state government was in danger of being captured by the Democrats. In The Union Divided, Pulitzer Prize-winning historian Mark E. Neely, Jr., vividly recounts the surprising story of political conflict in the North during the Civil War. Examining party conflict as viewed through the lens of the developing war, the excesses of party patronage, the impact of wartime elections, the highly partisan press, and the role of the...

Civil War and the Limits of Destruction
ISBN: 9780674045958 / Angielski / Miękka / 2010 / 288 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. The Civil War is often portrayed as the most brutal war in America's history, a premonition of twentieth-century slaughter and carnage. In challenging this view, Mark E. Neely, Jr., considers the war's destructiveness in a comparative context, revealing the sense of limits that guided the conduct of American soldiers and statesmen. Neely begins by contrasting Civil War behavior with U.S. soldiers' experiences in the Mexican War of 1846. He examines Price's Raid in Missouri for evidence of deterioration in the restraints imposed by the customs of war; and in a brilliant analysis of...

ISBN: 9781469625546 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 176 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 13-18 dni roboczych. Did preoccupations with family and work crowd out interest in politics in the nineteenth century, as some have argued? Arguing that social historians have gone too far in concluding that Americans were not deeply engaged in public life and that political historians have gone too far in asserting that politics informed all of Americans' lives, Mark Neely seeks to gauge the importance of politics for ordinary people in the Civil War era.
Looking beyond the usual markers of political activity, Neely sifts through the political bric-a-brac of the era--lithographs and engravings of...

Nicolay (1832-1901) was an undeniably apt and brilliant choice to inaugurate the landmark Campaigns of the Civil War series.

It is Nicolay's firsthand knowledge and personal observations of the key figures that imbue The Outbreak of...
