This book was released on 2012-11-02 with total page 279 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The South Carolina Encyclopedia Guide to the American Revolution in South Carolina details the people, places, and struggles that defined the region's prominent role in the path to American liberty from British authority. Nearly 140 battles of the American Revolution were fought in South Carolina, more than in any other colony. As America's first civil war, the revolution pitted Loyalists against partisans and patriots in the fierce combat that established the legacies of figures such as Francis Marion, Nathanael Greene, Peter Horry, Henry and John Laurens, Daniel Morgan, and Andrew Jackson. In addition to profiling these leaders, this guide also chronicles the major combat operations, including the battles of Ninety Six, Cowpens, Camden, Kings Mountain, and Charleston Harbor. Also documented are the vital contributions of African Americans and Native Americans in the struggle and the roles of Revolutionary War heroines such as Kate Barry, Emily Geiger, Rebecca Brewton Motte, and Dorcas Nelson Richardson. The origins of the South Carolina state flag and seal in the war are detailed as well in this treasure trove of fascinating information for students and historians of the American Revolution.
Book Synopsis Press and Speech Under Assault by : Wendell Bird
Download or read book Press and Speech Under Assault written by Wendell Bird and published by Oxford University Press. This book was released on 2016-01-07 with total page 565 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The early Supreme Court justices wrestled with how much press and speech is protected by freedoms of press and speech, before and under the First Amendment, and with whether the Sedition Act of 1798 violated those freedoms. This book discusses the twelve Supreme Court justices before John Marshall, their views of liberties of press and speech, and the Sedition Act prosecutions over which some of them presided. The book begins with the views of the pre-Marshall justices about freedoms of press and speech, before the struggle over the Sedition Act. It finds that their understanding was strikingly more expansive than the narrow definition of Sir William Blackstone, which is usually assumed to have dominated the period. Not one justice of the Supreme Court adopted that narrow definition before 1798, and all expressed strong commitments to those freedoms. The book then discusses the views of the early Supreme Court justices about freedoms of press and speech during the national controversy over the Sedition Act of 1798 and its constitutionality. It finds that, though several of the justices presided over Sedition Act trials, the early justices divided almost evenly over that issue with an unrecognized half opposing its constitutionality, rather than unanimously supporting the Act as is generally assumed. The book similarly reassesses the Federalist party itself, and finds that an unrecognized minority also challenged the constitutionality of the Sedition Act and the narrow Blackstone approach during 1798-1801, and that an unrecognized minority of the other states did as well in considering the Virginia and Kentucky Resolutions. The book summarizes the recognized fourteen prosecutions of newspaper editors and other opposition members under the Sedition Act of 1798. It sheds new light on the recognized cases by identifying and confirming twenty-two additional Sedition Act prosecutions. At each of these steps, this book challenges conventional views in existing histories of the early republic and of the early Supreme Court justices.

Book Synopsis Discovering Your Divine Identity by : B. Dale Hansen
Download or read book Discovering Your Divine Identity written by B. Dale Hansen and published by Dog Ear Publishing. This book was released on 2016-03-01 with total page 441 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Dale, I read the chapter tying Chinese peoples to Hebrew origins through Joktan. It was most interesting and fairly convincing. I was particularly struck by the figure on a throne or chair that was found in both China and Egypt. Wow! That is a tremendous tying figure. Thanks for sharing. ~ John K. Carmack, Attorney, LDS Emeritus General Authority Los Angeles and Salt Lake City Dale, I read your paper about eternal man. It is profound and mind boggling. You have done a lot of research and have thought deeply about the subject. Are you going to publish it? I think most of us have little idea who we really are. The discussion about DNA is very compelling. Thank you so much for sharing such deep and wonderful thoughts with me. ~ Jack Rushton, Educator, CES, Quadriplegic for 26 yrs. Irvine, California Fascinating thoughts! Eastern Hebrew origins that link China and Asian people of God together, even DNA. Dale has introduced a unique view of the scattering of great populations throughout the world that has the potential to help many of us to re-think such events. A worth-while read for any-one interested in the early peoples of the earth and the connection between peoples, including pre-mortality. ~ Douglas Patterson, Business Entrepreneur, Washington, Florida - Currently in Arizona DNA— there’s an interesting paradox within the DNA. [It is] there are so many bits of information [in there] that it is absolutely very easy to identify you as a unique individual, different than any other individual that has ever lived on the earth or who will ever live on the earth. Each of you is truly a unique creation. But also locked within the DNA are pieces of DNA that you share with your most immediate ancestors, with your brothers and your sisters and your parents and your grandparents. ~ Dr. Scott Woodward, Geneticist, Molecular Genealogy Salt Lake City, Utah
