A Yankee in Rebel Prisons
ISBN: 9780979044397 / Angielski / Miękka / 232 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. This fascinating work by Lt Alva C. Roach, completed and published in the year 1865, is surely one of the most descriptive of many personal journals written during the years of America's terrible Civil War. His depictions are so detailed and compelling as to make the reader feel as though we were there with him and our forefathers during his battles and two years in Rebel prisons. Lt Roach's book, though, is uncommon in another way. He declared his work unvarnished truth, and much appears so. Yet, his words ring constantly with far more, oozing a remarkable hatred and vilification toward...

For decades Abraham and Mary Lincoln s marriage has been characterized as discordant and tumultuous. In "Abraham and Mary Lincoln," author Kenneth J.

Lincolnology: The Real Abraham Lincoln Revealed in His Own Words
ISBN: 9780982770092 / Angielski / Miękka / 1050 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. There are two Abraham Lincolns: Lincoln the political celebrity, whose image has been carefully crafted by Lincoln scholars, biographers, and mythographers, and the true Lincoln, whose actual words are almost completely unknown to the general public. Why are they not known? Because they have been concealed, ignored, or misconstrued by Lincoln apologists. In some cases they have even been destroyed. Lincoln's business associates, family members, and personal friends, for example, intentionally burned many of his writings. What is it that Lincoln devotees are so afraid of, and why have they...

ISBN: 9780807899694 / Angielski / Miękka / 312 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. During the 1840s and 1850s, a dangerous ferment afflicted the North-South border region, pitting the slave states of Maryland, Virginia, Kentucky, and Missouri against the free states of New Jersey, Pennsylvania, Ohio, Indiana, and Illinois. Aspects of this struggle--the underground railroad, enforcement of the fugitive slave laws, mob actions, and sectional politics--are well known as parts of other stories.
