The two can't agree on anything. When the Endeavour makes an emergency landing on the coast of West Africa and Elliot's life is hanging in the balance, can he and Vincent reconcile their cultural differences and became friends?

Book Synopsis The Zealot and the Emancipator by : H. W. Brands
Download or read book The Zealot and the Emancipator written by H. W. Brands and published by Anchor. This book was released on 2021-10-12 with total page 481 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the acclaimed historian and bestselling author: a page-turning account of the epic struggle over slavery as embodied by John Brown and Abraham Lincoln—two men moved to radically different acts to confront our nation’s gravest sin. John Brown was a charismatic and deeply religious man who heard the God of the Old Testament speaking to him, telling him to destroy slavery by any means. When Congress opened Kansas territory to slavery in 1854, Brown raised a band of followers to wage war. His men tore pro-slavery settlers from their homes and hacked them to death with broadswords. Three years later, Brown and his men assaulted the federal arsenal at Harpers Ferry, Virginia, hoping to arm slaves with weapons for a race war that would cleanse the nation of slavery. Brown’s violence pointed ambitious Illinois lawyer and former officeholder Abraham Lincoln toward a different solution to slavery: politics. Lincoln spoke cautiously and dreamed big, plotting his path back to Washington and perhaps to the White House. Yet his caution could not protect him from the vortex of violence Brown had set in motion. After Brown’s arrest, his righteous dignity on the way to the gallows led many in the North to see him as a martyr to liberty. Southerners responded with anger and horror to a terrorist being made into a saint. Lincoln shrewdly threaded the needle between the opposing voices of the fractured nation and won election as president. But the time for moderation had passed, and Lincoln’s fervent belief that democracy could resolve its moral crises peacefully faced its ultimate test. The Zealot and the Emancipator is the thrilling account of how two American giants shaped the war for freedom.
Book Synopsis The Martial Imagination by : Jimmy L. Bryan
Download or read book The Martial Imagination written by Jimmy L. Bryan and published by Texas A&M University Press. This book was released on 2013-10-10 with total page 268 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Martial experiences and the mythologies that surround them have profoundly affected the ways in which Americans think of themselves. Wars identify the heroes who help define national character, provide the stories for the grand narratives of belonging and sacrifice, and serve as markers for essential moments of transformation. However, only in the last several years have scholars begun using the term “cultural history of American warfare” to identify the study of how public discourse formulates these defining myths and narratives. This volume brings together scholarship from diverse fields in a common mission to demonstrate the usefulness and significance of studying the cultural history of American warfare. The Martial Imagination: Cultural Aspects of American Warfare canvasses the American war experience from the Revolution to the War on Terror, examining how it infuses legitimacy and conformity with an urgency that contorts ideas of citizenship, nationhood, gender, and other pliable categories. The multidisciplinary scholarship in this volume represents the varied perspectives of cultural history, American studies, literary criticism, war and society, media studies, and public culture analysis, illustrating the rich dialogues that epitomize the cultural history of American warfare. Bringing together both recognized and emerging scholars, this book is the first anthology to feature essays on this topic, comprising research from twelve authors who represent a wide range of experiences and disciplines. Their work uncovers new and surprising understandings of the American war experience that reveal the ways in which culture makers have grappled with the trauma of war, salvaged meaning from the meaningless, or advanced some ulterior agenda.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Sum of All Our Anger is a gripping story that takes the reader down the rabbit hole of the Second American Civil War in 2061. Newly elected President Devin Cyrus is determined to sweep away the last remnants of the Old Way in America to pave the way for a Socialist utopia under his New Way policy. He prepares to forge ahead at all costs. New Way supporter and 1619 Brigade founder DeShawn King, filled with anger, is more than eager to exact revenge for generations of oppression. Meanwhile, followers of the Old Way are determined to keep a remnant of the Old Union intact and let the New Way states forge ahead without them. The problem is that it means secession. Their de facto leader, Oklahoma Governor Mary Whitfield, rallies like-minded states and Americans to oppose the New Way and preserve the Old Way at all costs. Caught in the middle, politically moderate Bishop Jackson King, father to DeShawn, gets called up to deploy in the Illinois National Guard. Our Union and way of life hang in the balance as the two opposing world views collide head-on in a final showdown. For General Fiction, Political Thrillers, Military, and Dystopian fans, The SUM of ALL OUR ANGER is a must-read. Buy your copy now!

Book Synopsis From Martyrs to Murderers by : Robert L. Dahlgren
Download or read book From Martyrs to Murderers written by Robert L. Dahlgren and published by Springer. This book was released on 2017-04-13 with total page 167 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In From Martyrs to Murderers, the author explores the connections between the dark, unflattering representations of public schools, teachers and teaching in popular Hollywood films and the conservative attacks on public education that have culminated in a generation of neo-liberal standards reform measures. The author’s analysis is based on a survey of 60 movies that feature significant interactions between public school teachers and their students. This study employed a textual analysis method involving viewing the films alongside original script material, which reveals that the narratives involving public schools during the late 20th century and early 21st century are distinct from those involving other types of schools or eras. Rather than the romantic figures of earlier portraits, such as Eve Arden’s beloved Our Miss Brooks in the 1940s and 1950s radio and television serial, these teachers are consistently portrayed as negative archetypes, thus providing a rationale for the school reform agenda of the 1980s. The sheer repetition of these damaging images in Hollywood products of the period made the American public more susceptible to the deceptive arguments outlined in A Nation at Risk, the seminal 1983 report that provided the blueprint for the standards reform movement that has dominated education policy for the past generation. This work thus develops upon the critical perspectives of educational historians and social studies educators who have probed this turning point in the history of American schooling. It also offers an alternative means of viewing the reality of life in the nation’s public institutions.
