This Kindred People: Canadian-American Relations and the Anglo-Saxon Idea, 1895-1903
ISBN: 9780773527966 / Angielski / Twarda / 2005 / 264 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Kohn shows how Americans and Canadians often referred to each other as members of the same family, sharing the same blood, and drew upon the common lexicon of Anglo-Saxon rhetoric to undermine old rivalries and underscore shared interests. Though the predominance of Anglo-Saxonism proved short-lived, it left a legacy of Canadian-American goodwill as both nations accepted their shared destiny on the continent. Kohn argues that this new Canadian-American understanding fostered the Anglo-American special relationship that shaped the twentieth century.

Heir to the Empire City: New York and the Making of Theodore Roosevelt
ISBN: 9780465024292 / Angielski / Twarda / 2013 / 272 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Theodore Roosevelt is best remembered as America's prototypical "cowboy" president--a Rough Rider who derived his political wisdom from a youth spent in the untamed American West. But while the great outdoors certainly shaped Roosevelt's identity, historian Edward P. Kohn argues that it was his hometown of New York that made him the progressive president we celebrate today. During his early political career, Roosevelt took on local Republican factions and Tammany Hall Democrats alike, proving his commitment to reform at all costs. He combated the city's rampant corruption, and helped to guide...

Collection Evaluation in Academic Libraries: A Practical Guide for Librarians
ISBN: 9781442238602 / Angielski / Miękka / 2015 / 204 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 30 dni roboczych. Librarians have long used data to describe their collections. Traditional measures have simply been inputs and outputs: volumes acquired, processed, owned, or circulated. With the growth since the 1990s of cultures of assessment, librarians have sought statistics that are evaluative rather than simply descriptive. More recently, exponentially increasing journal prices and an economic recession have intensified the need to make careful purchasing decisions and to justify these to administrators. A methodical evaluation of a library collection can help librarians understand and meet user needs...

Hot Time in the Old Town: The Great Heat Wave of 1896 and the Making of Theodore Roosevelt
ISBN: 9780465024285 / Angielski / Miękka / 2011 / 304 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 16-18 dni roboczych. One of the worst natural disasters in American history, the 1896 New York heat wave killed almost 1,500 people in ten oppressively hot days. The heat coincided with a pitched presidential contest between William McKinley and the upstart Democrat William Jennings Bryan, who arrived in New York City at the height of the catastrophe. As historian Edward P. Kohn shows, Bryan's hopes for the presidency began to flag amidst the abhorrent heat just as a bright young police commissioner named Theodore Roosevelt was scrambling to mitigate the dangerously high temperatures by hosing down streets and...
