Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The year 1910 saw the 50th anniversary of the Queen’s Own Rifles, Canada’s longest-serving reserve regiment. To celebrate this landmark, a series of events, military parades, and spectacular historical pageants featuring hundreds of participants were held in Toronto, all of which were bankrolled by financier and Commanding Officer of the QOR, Sir Henry Pellatt—better known to Canadians as the man who built Toronto’s Casa Loma as a private residence for his family. The highlight of the jubilee celebrations was Pellatt’s sponsorship of a trip to the UK for more than 600 young reservists to train in military manoeuvers with the British Army for four weeks, including a week’s vacation. The group was accompanied by reporters—known as the “Press Gang”— from six Toronto newspapers. Author Mima Brown Kapches’ father, J.N.M. (Jim) Brown, was one such reporter. When researching her father’s journalism career, Brown Kapches came across an article filed by her father in Toronto World about the trip. Surprised to discover that there was little comprehensive documentation of this fascinating bit of Canadian history, she set about painstakingly reconstructing the trip, primarily through newspaper accounts written by her father and his fellow journalists. The English Trip of 1910: Toronto, Sir Henry Pellatt, the Queen’s Own Rifles and the Press Gang is a meticulously researched and eloquently written account of the English excursion.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the nineteenth through the mid-twentieth centuries, millions of American men and women participated in fraternal associations--self-selecting brotherhoods and sisterhoods that provided aid to members, enacted group rituals, and engaged in community service. Even more than whites did, African Americans embraced this type of association; indeed, fraternal lodges rivaled churches as centers of black community life in cities, towns, and rural areas alike. Using an unprecedented variety of secondary and primary sources--including old documents, pictures, and ribbon-badges found in eBay auctions--this book tells the story of the most visible African American fraternal associations. The authors demonstrate how African American fraternal groups played key roles in the struggle for civil rights and racial integration. Between the 1890s and the 1930s, white legislatures passed laws to outlaw the use of important fraternal names and symbols by blacks. But blacks successfully fought back. Employing lawyers who in some cases went on to work for the NAACP, black fraternalists took their cases all the way to the Supreme Court, which eventually ruled in their favor. At the height of the modern Civil Rights movement in the 1950s and 1960s, they marched on Washington and supported the lawsuits through lobbying and demonstrations that finally led to legal equality. This unique book reveals a little-known chapter in the story of civic democracy and racial equality in America.
