Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from A Study of Cook County, 1914 It is true that the County shows backwardness in re form, that the recent movement that claims cities as the hope of democracy, has left in the forgotten background the County unit of government, that the so-called machine politician is found in evidence in County offices and County business; but it is also true that a large element in the County problem is the understanding of the voters. To many citizens the County exists as a mere boundary line, and this attitude has resulted in indifference to its complex functions and a lack of general interest that has brought f01th weak, inefficient, and, at times, dishonest government. To contribute to the understanding of County government, and to arouse the intelligent interest of the voters 1s the pur pose of this work.

Book excerpt: Excerpt from Greater Terre Haute and Vigo County, Vol. 2: Closing the First Century's History of City and County; Showing the Growth of Their People, Industries and Wealth John Nelson yvhite, whose name introduces this record, was but a young lad at the time of his parents' removal to Illinois and was there reared upon a farm in Clark county. There he acquired a com mon school education, and when not busy with his text books devoted his time and energy to the work of the fields. At the age of sixteen years, however. He left the farm and became engaged on construction work on the Vandalia Railroad. For six months he was employed as a laborer, after which he learned the' stone - cutting trade with the com pany, following that pursuit for about three years. He next entered the employ of the state of Indiana, his time being thus passed between June, 1874, and April, 1876, in assisting in the care of the insane at Indianapolis. Going thence to southwestern Kentucky, he went to work for the firm Booth, Delaney 8: Company, proprietors of a hub and spoke factory, where he learned the trade of spoke and hub turning. Eighteen months were spent in Kentucky, after which he returned to Terre Haute in the latter part of 1877. He then joined his father in the business of getting out railroad ties in southern Illinois, and the following year took up the occupation of farming in that state, continuing in active connec tion with agricultural interests for two seasons.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An exploration of how the Windy City became a postwar Latinx metropolis in the face of white resistance. Though Chicago is often popularly defined by its Polish, Black, and Irish populations, Cook County is home to the third-largest Mexican-American population in the United States. The story of Mexican immigration and integration into the city is one of complex political struggles, deeply entwined with issues of housing and neighborhood control. In Making Mexican Chicago, Mike Amezcua explores how the Windy City became a Latinx metropolis in the second half of the twentieth century. In the decades after World War II, working-class Chicago neighborhoods like Pilsen and Little Village became sites of upheaval and renewal as Mexican Americans attempted to build new communities in the face of white resistance that cast them as perpetual aliens. Amezcua charts the diverse strategies used by Mexican Chicagoans to fight the forces of segregation, economic predation, and gentrification, focusing on how unlikely combinations of social conservatism and real estate market savvy paved new paths for Latinx assimilation. Making Mexican Chicago offers a powerful multiracial history of Chicago that sheds new light on the origins and endurance of urban inequality.

And so I have devoted a chapter to the Mound Builders and another to their successors the Indians. Since the coming of the white man I have tried to describe conditions as they were in the beginning and the many changes he has wrought along the various lines of life.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: . Renewal of Life by Transmission. The most notable distinction between living and inanimate things is that the former maintain themselves by renewal. A stone when struck resists. If its resistance is greater than the force of the blow struck, it remains outwardly unchanged. Otherwise, it is shattered into smaller bits. Never does the stone attempt to react in such a way that it may maintain itself against the blow, much less so as to render the blow a contributing factor to its own continued action. While the living thing may easily be crushed by superior force, it none the less tries to turn the energies which act upon it into means of its own further existence. If it cannot do so, it does not just split into smaller pieces (at least in the higher forms of life), but loses its identity as a living thing. As long as it endures, it struggles to use surrounding energies in its own behalf. It uses light, air, moisture, and the material of soil. To say that it uses them is to say that it turns them into means of its own conservation. As long as it is growing, the energy it expends in thus turning the environment to account is more than compensated for by the return it gets: it grows. Understanding the word "control" in this sense, it may be said that a living being is one that subjugates and controls for its own continued activity the energies that would otherwise use it up. Life is a self-renewing process through action upon the environment.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: American Military History provides the United States Army-in particular, its young officers, NCOs, and cadets-with a comprehensive but brief account of its past. The Center of Military History first published this work in 1956 as a textbook for senior ROTC courses. Since then it has gone through a number of updates and revisions, but the primary intent has remained the same. Support for military history education has always been a principal mission of the Center, and this new edition of an invaluable history furthers that purpose. The history of an active organization tends to expand rapidly as the organization grows larger and more complex. The period since the Vietnam War, at which point the most recent edition ended, has been a significant one for the Army, a busy period of expanding roles and missions and of fundamental organizational changes. In particular, the explosion of missions and deployments since 11 September 2001 has necessitated the creation of additional, open-ended chapters in the story of the U.S. Army in action. This first volume covers the Army's history from its birth in 1775 to the eve of World War I. By 1917, the United States was already a world power. The Army had sent large expeditionary forces beyond the American hemisphere, and at the beginning of the new century Secretary of War Elihu Root had proposed changes and reforms that within a generation would shape the Army of the future. But world war-global war-was still to come. The second volume of this new edition will take up that story and extend it into the twenty-first century and the early years of the war on terrorism and includes an analysis of the wars in Afghanistan and Iraq up to January 2009.
