The Rural Cemetery Movement: Places of Paradox in Nineteenth-Century America
ISBN: 9781498529006 / Angielski / Twarda / 182 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. When Mount Auburn opened as the first "rural" cemetery in the United States in 1831, it represented a new way for Americans to think about burial sites. It broke with conventional notions about graveyards as places to bury and commemorate the dead. Rather, the founders of Mount Auburn and the spate of similar cemeteries that followed over the next three decades before the Civil War created institutions that they envisioned being used by the living in new ways. Cemeteries became places for leisure, communing with nature, and creating a version of collective memory. In fact, these cemeteries...

Two Charlestonians at War: The Civil War Odysseys of a Lowcountry Aristocrat and a Black Abolitionist
ISBN: 9780807169094 / Angielski / Twarda / 344 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. An incredible and fresh contribution to the saga of the Civil War, Barbara Bellows follows the parallel lives of two soldiers from South Carolina--a white aristocrat and a black artisan turned abolitionist--that intersect only once in a wartime prison on Morris Island.

Two Captains from Carolina: Moses Grandy, John Newland Maffitt, and the Coming of the Civil War
ISBN: 9781469642291 / Angielski / Miękka / 208 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. In Two Captains from Carolina, Bland Simpson twines together the lives of two accomplished nineteenth-century mariners from North Carolina--one African American, one Irish American. Though Moses Grandy (ca. 1791- ca. 1850) and John Newland Maffitt Jr. (1819-1886) never met, their stories bring to vivid life the saga of race and maritime culture in the antebellum and Civil War-era South. With his lyrical prose and inimitable voice, Bland Simpson offers readers a grand tale of the striving human spirit and the great divide that nearly sundered the nation.

The Quotable Robert E. Lee: Selections From the Writings and Speeches of the South's Most Beloved Civil War General
ISBN: 9781943737550 / Angielski / Twarda / 252 str. Termin realizacji zamówienia: ok. 5-8 dni roboczych. Ask the average American who their favorite Civil War general is and you will invariably get the name of the blue-coated Union military hero Ulysses S. Grant. Victorian Yankees loved him so much they put his face on their fifty-dollar bill and made him president of the United States - twice. We in the South, however, prefer our Civil War generals in Confederate gray, and none wore it better, or more nobly and prouder, than Robert E. Lee. Whether you are new to the Great Virginian or a longtime fan, award-winning Southern historian Colonel Lochlainn Seabrook's bestseller, The...
