Book Synopsis The Course of History by : Struan Stevenson
Download or read book The Course of History written by Struan Stevenson and published by Simon and Schuster. This book was released on 2019-04-02 with total page 312 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: An entertaining seat at the table of ten power meals that shaped history—including the menus and recreated recipes! Some of the most consequential decisions in history were decided at the dinner table, accompanied—and perhaps influenced—by copious amounts of food and drink. This fascinating book explores ten of those pivotal meals, presenting the contexts, key participants, table talk, and outcomes of each. It offers unique insight into the minds and appetites of some of history’s most famous and notorious characters, including Bonnie Prince Charlie, George Washington, Alexander Hamilton, Thomas Jefferson, Adolf Hitler, Winston Churchill, Joseph Stalin, Mao Zedong, and Richard Nixon. Feasting on leg of lamb, Bonnie Prince Charlie doomed the Jacobite Army at Culloden. A uniquely American menu served with French wine lubricated the conversation between rivals Jefferson and Hamilton that led to the founding of the US financial system and the location of the nation’s capital in Washington. After schweinwürst and sauerkraut with Adolf Hitler at his Berghof residence, Austrian chancellor Kurt von Schuschnigg agreed to the complete integration of Austria into the Third Reich. Celebrity chef Tony Singh has researched the menus and recipes for all ten dinners down to the last detail and recreates them here. The book contains fifty-five recipes from soup to desert and lists the spirits as well.

Book Synopsis People That Changed the Course of History: The Story of Karl Marx 200 Years After His Birth by : Rachel Basinger
Download or read book People That Changed the Course of History: The Story of Karl Marx 200 Years After His Birth written by Rachel Basinger and published by Atlantic Publishing Company. This book was released on 2017-12-31 with total page 164 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: What if you could be a student in the morning, an accountant in the afternoon, and a physical therapist in the evening — then try three completely different trades the following day? This was Karl Marx’s vision for the world. Marx, a 19th century German philosopher, believed the proletariat, or the working class, was enslaved by the bourgeoisie, or ruling class. Despite being a small percentage of the population, the bourgeoisie controlled the vast majority of the world’s wealth and all means of production. But what if all the workers of the world got together. Could they oust the ruling class? Within a few decades of his death, Marx’s ideas swept across Europe and dramatically influenced the events of the 20th century. Millions perished at the hands of Russian dictator Joseph Stalin and other communist leaders, who followed their interpretations of Marx’s philosophy to its unintended ends. But long before Stalin assumed power or the Iron Curtain fell across Europe, there was a boy born into a German middle-class family in 1818. You will learn about Marx’s marriage to a young baroness, his seven children, and his longstanding relationship with fellow philosopher Friedrich Engels, one of the few people who could decipher Marx’s messy handwriting. When you are done reading this book, you may not exclaim, “Workers of the world, unite!” (as Marx famously did at the end of “The Communist Manifesto”), but you’ll understand more of what he meant by that — and more about the man behind the statement.

Book Synopsis The Course of Modern Jewish History by : Howard M. Sachar
Download or read book The Course of Modern Jewish History written by Howard M. Sachar and published by Vintage. This book was released on 2013-10-30 with total page 1225 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: When this encyclopedic history of the Jews was first published in 1958, it was hailed as one of the great works of its kind, a study that not only chronicled an assailed and enduring people, but assessed its astonishing impact on the modern world. Now this scholarly and comprehensive book has been massively revised and updated by its author, a professor of modern history at the George Washington University and one of the most respected authorities on the lives and times of the Jewish people. The new edition casts additional light on the milestones of the Jewish saga from the eighteenth century to the close of the twentieth: the Jews' emergence from the ghetto and into the heart of Western society, the debate between the voices of tradition, assimilation, and Zionism; virtual destruction during the Holocaust; and troubled rebirth in Israel. Here, too, are evocative portraits of today's disapora, from the Jews of America to the embattled communities of the former Soviet Union and the Third World.
Book Synopsis The Course of Russian History, 5th Edition by : Melvin C. Wren
Download or read book The Course of Russian History, 5th Edition written by Melvin C. Wren and published by Wipf and Stock Publishers. This book was released on 2009-01-08 with total page 638 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Now in its fifth edition, this definitive history of the Russian land and people builds on its success as a fascinating survey of two thousand years of struggle to harness vast resources and talents into a powerful and cohesive nation. From its beginning as a savage and exotic land, Russia underwent a complex evolution of political, social, and religious forces--the barbarism of its internal conflicts in seeming contradiction with its goals to advance in the realms of technology, art, education, and high culture. From the conflicts of the fantastically wealthy ruling class to the poor and oppressed masses emerged the Communist party and the enigmatic figures whose charismatic manipulation of political power reflected the myriad rulers before them. Finally, as the modern world watched, this great entity collapsed in a devastatingly brief time, millennia of precarious conflict proving too much for the tenuous coalescence of twentieth-century politics. Written in an engaging and accessible style, this text presents students with a comprehensive look at the momentous events and legendary figures which helped shape Russia's turbulent history.
Book Synopsis The Course of Andean History by : Peter V. N. Henderson
Download or read book The Course of Andean History written by Peter V. N. Henderson and published by UNM Press. This book was released on 2013-08-01 with total page 402 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The only comprehensive history of Andean South America from initial settlement to the present, this useful book focuses on Colombia, Ecuador, Peru, and Bolivia, the four countries where the Andes have played a major role in shaping history. Although Henderson emphasizes the period since the winning of independence in 1825, he argues that the region’s republican history cannot be explained without a clear understanding of what happened in the pre-Hispanic and colonial eras Henderson carefully explores the complex relationship between the Andean peoples and their land up until the fall of the Inka Empire in 1532 before addressing the Spanish conquest and the colonial aftermath, emphasizing the syncretism often unwillingly forced upon the original inhabitants of the region. His account of the nineteenth century discusses the attempts of the Andean elite to fashion modern nation-states in the face of many divisive factors, including race. The final chapters carry the story from 1930 to the present as the Andean countries debated different ways to create a more inclusive and prosperous society.
Book Synopsis A Course in Russian History: The Time of Catherine the Great by : Vasili O. Kliuchevsky
Download or read book A Course in Russian History: The Time of Catherine the Great written by Vasili O. Kliuchevsky and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2015-05-20 with total page 262 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In this newly-translated excerpt from his five-volume "Course", Kliuchevsky (1841-1911) provides a colourful description of Russian court life in the 18th century, a dramatic narrative of the coup d'etat that brought Catherine II to power, a portrait of the empress herself, and an analysis of her foreign conquests and her major internal initiatives. While Kliuchevsky is critical of Catherine, he draws upon her memoirs and other writings and the accounts of her contemporaries to achieve a well-rounded and deeply human analysis of her character and personality. It is an extraordinary act of historical re-creation of the sort that brought Kliuchevsky such renown in his own time, and it remains so lifelike that it fairly leaps off the page. Kliuchevsky's examination of Western influence in Catherine's reign leads him to questions that were of urgent significance for Russia's development in his own day, and have remained so ever since: how to use Western ideas and practices to improve and enrich Russian life, without turning them into idle fashions or political bludgeons, and where to find the social leadership capable of performing such a delicate task.
