Book excerpt: I found the working people of Frome very intelligent; very well informed as to the cause of their misery; not at all humbuggered by the canters, whether about religion or loyalty. -from "Salisbury to Highworth, Saturday, 2 September" Son of an innkeeper, former soldier, champion of the working class, early anticorporate activist, and future Member of Parliament-Will Cobbett's unique eye offers us a perspective on 19th-century England we won't find anywhere else. Cobbett roamed Southern England on horseback in the years between 1821 and 1832, gathering his "economical and political observations relative to matters applicable to, and illustrated by, the state of" that charming part of the world, one in the throes of massive change in the wake of the Industrial Revolution. This is an extraordinary record of a world long gone, one very little documented when it existed, by a voice who was far ahead of his time. British journalist and radical WILLIAM COBBETT (1762-1835) is also the author of The Progress of a Ploughboy to a Seat in Parliament (1830).
Book Synopsis The Secret Chronicles of Henry Dashwood by : Anonymous
Download or read book The Secret Chronicles of Henry Dashwood written by Anonymous and published by Blue Moon Books. This book was released on 2004-12 with total page 231 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: To all outward appearances, the Albion Academy is the epitome of a respectable establishment for the education of the sons of Gentlefolk. But its pupils have other tales to tell – especially Henry Dashwood. His is the outrageous confession of a young man's sexual awakening, of the unleashing of repressed desires and of submission to the most pleasurable chastisement. This is the highly erotic and humorous exposure of forbidden pleasures, lost innocence, and extraordinarily uninhibited moral standards.
Book Synopsis A Key to Ricardo by : Oswald St. Claire
Download or read book A Key to Ricardo written by Oswald St. Claire and published by Routledge. This book was released on 2013-10-16 with total page 395 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Ricardo is one of the most imposing figures in the history of economic thought, yet at times his writings are among the most obscure. A Key to Ricardo traces, simplifies and clarifies Ricardo's ideas on the principal topics on which he wrote. The book provides a careful analysis of Ricardo's most cryptic passages and also explores areas where Ricardo appears to be mistaken. Setting Ricardo's writings against the context of his contemporaries, the relevance of the Ricardian contribution to subsequent economic thinking is nonetheless made very clear.

Book Synopsis The Once and Future Great Lakes Country by : John L. Riley
Download or read book The Once and Future Great Lakes Country written by John L. Riley and published by McGill-Queen's Press - MQUP. This book was released on 2013-10-01 with total page 545 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: North America's Great Lakes country has experienced centuries of upheaval. Its landscapes are utterly changed from what they were five hundred years ago. The region's superabundant fish and wildlife and its magnificent forests and prairies astonished European newcomers who called it an earthly paradise but then ushered in an era of disease, warfare, resource depletion, and land development that transformed it forever. The Once and Future Great Lakes Country is a history of environmental change in the Great Lakes region, looking as far back as the last ice age, and also reflecting on modern trajectories of change, many of them positive. John Riley chronicles how the region serves as a continental crossroads, one that experienced massive declines in its wildlife and native plants in the centuries after European contact, and has begun to see increased nature protection and re-wilding in recent decades. Yet climate change, globalization, invasive species, and urban sprawl are today exerting new pressures on the region’s ecology. Covering a vast geography encompassing two Canadian provinces and nine American states, The Once and Future Great Lakes Country provides both a detailed ecological history and a broad panorama of this vast region. It blends the voices of early visitors with the hopes of citizens now.
Book Synopsis Bootlegger's Other Daughter by : Mary Cimarolli
Download or read book Bootlegger's Other Daughter written by Mary Cimarolli and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2004 with total page 186 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The generation that toiled through the Great Depression and won the Second World War has become known as -the greatest generation.- But not all of them qualified for that exaggerated epithet in the eyes of their own children. In this tender but unsparing memoir, Mary Cimarolli remembers a world in which the family home was lost to foreclosure, her father made his way by bootlegging, and school was a haven to hide from her brother's teasing. Her stories are about struggle and survival, making do and overcoming, and, ultimately, reconciliation. From her perspective as a child, she describes the cotton stamps and other programs of the New Deal, the yellow-dog Democrat politics and racism of East Texas, and the religious revivals and Old Settlers reunions that gave a break from working in the cotton patch. The colorful colloquialisms of rural East Texas that dot the manuscript help express both the traditionalism of the region and its changes under the impact of modernization, electrification, and the coming of war. Along with these regional and national trends, Cimarolli skillfully interweaves the personal: conflict between her parents, the death of her brother a few days before his sixteenth birthday, and her own inner tensions.

Book Synopsis Imperial Heartland by : David Holland
Download or read book Imperial Heartland written by David Holland and published by Cambridge University Press. This book was released on 2023-05-31 with total page 371 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Working-class Britons played a crucial role in the pioneering settlement and integration of South Asians in imperial Britain. Using a host of new and neglected sources, Imperial Heartland revises the history of early South Asian immigration to Britain, focusing on the northern English city of Sheffield. Rather than viewing immigration through the lens of inevitable conflict, this study takes an alternative approach, situating mixed marriages and inter-racial social networks centrally within the South Asian settlement of modern Britain. Whilst acknowledging the episodic racial conflict of the early inter-war period, David Holland challenges assumptions that insurmountable barriers of race, religion and culture existed between the British working classes and non-white newcomers. Imperial Heartland closely examines the reactions of working-class natives to these young South Asian men and overturns our pre-conceptions that hostility to perceived racial or national difference was an overriding pre-occupation of working-class people during this period. Imperial Heartland therefore offers a fresh and inspiring new perspective on the social and cultural history of modern Britain.
