Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Historians have published countless studies of the American Civil War from 1861 to 1865 and the era of Reconstruction that followed those four years of brutally destructive conflict. Most of these works focus on events and developments at the national or state level, explaining and analyzing the causes of disunion, the course of the war, and the bitter disputes that arose during restoration of the Union. Much less attention has been given to studying how ordinary people experienced the years from 1861 to 1876. What did secession, civil war, emancipation, victory for the United States, and Reconstruction mean at the local level in Texas? Exactly how much change—economic, social, and political—did the era bring to the focus of the study, Harrison County: a cotton-growing, planter-dominated community with the largest slave population of any county in the state? Providing an answer to that question is the basic purpose of A Southern Community in Crisis: Harrison County, Texas, 1850–1880. First published by the Texas State Historical Association in 1983, the book is now available in paperback, with a foreword by Andrew J. Torget, one of the Lone Star State’s top young historians.

As a result, his volume presents the views of all parties to the sectional conflict and offers a vivid portrait of the interaction between them.--American Historical Review "Refocuses our attention on an important but surprisingly neglected group--the Unionists of the upper South during the secession crisis, who have been too readily ignored by other historians.--Journal of Southern History

This book was released on 2016-08-17 with total page 420 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the 1898 edition of Modern Culture, Vol. 6: On nearly all of the old bookstands of the country can be found a copy of "The Impending Crisis of the South: How to Meet It," by Hinton Rowan Helper, of North Carolina. That the book can be [easily] purchased indicates that it must have had a large circulation, but there are few persons under forty who have any other than a vague idea of what the work is about, and fewer still know that it was at one time the most talked-of book in America and was hated by the slaveholders even worse than "Uncle Tom's Cabin." THE BOOK MAKES A SENSATION From California, Mr. Helper turned East and then came into prominence by his book, which is the subject of this article. When "The Impending Crisis" was first published, in 1857, it attracted immediate attention for several reasons. In the first place it was an attack upon slavery by a Southern man. This, it is true, was not unprecedented, but his argument was a novel one. Heretofore the attacks on slavery had largely been based on the immorality of the institution. While Helper believed the institution immoral he attacked it on economic grounds. He took as the basis of his attack the Census returns for 1850 which had been collected with a completeness never before attempted. The Superintendent of this Census was Prof. DeBow, of Charleston, South Carolina, editor of the Review that bore his name. The Review was an ardent defender of slavery and the only publication in the South of any considerable literary merit. Thus it was impossible for the slaveholders to claim that the census figures had been juggled to meet anti-slavery ideas. SLAVERY, THE RUIN OF THE SOUTH Using these figure as well as other official statistics, Helper made an attack on slavery as a wasteful institution which had impoverished the South, injured the non-slaveholding classes, and was slowly but surely working its ruin. If he had confined himself to his deductions, with brief and impartial comments, the effect of the book on Southerners would have been much better. On the contrary he was as virulent and unsparing in his denunciation of slave owners as the warmest slavery propagandist was in advocacy of that institution; and in denunciation of those who held contrary views on the subject. Helper was no mean writer and he used his invective in a way that wrung the Southern heart; hence his book was denounced and condemned more bitterly than Mrs. Stowe's great work which showed the brighter as well as the darker side of slavery.

Download or read book Common Crisis North South written by Independent Commission on International Development Issues and published by London : Pan. This book was released on 1983 with total page 206 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: "Common Crisis" is a call to world government for emergency measures to halt International economic collapse and avoid the political anarchy that would inevitably follow.Three years ago, the Independent Commission on International Development Issues, under the Chairmanship of Willy Brandt, published its prophetic report, "North-South: A Program for Survival" (MIT Press paperback). This widely publicized earlier report spelled out the extent of the mutual interests between North and South and appealed for a program to avert disaster for the poorest countries, for a longer-term reorganization of the global economic system, and for a summit meeting of world leaders.Now, worsening economic conditions and the lack of global cooperation have impelled the Brandt Commission to prepare a new report - this time on not just what to do about the Third World but how to deal with our common crisis - to try to break the deadlock and avert economic collapse.In lucid and forceful terms, this book describes the different elements of crisis - in trade, in energy, in food - and concentrates on the overriding problem of how to compensate for the decline in liquidity, to reverse the decline in trade, and to revive the world economy.

Download or read book North Korea South Korea written by John Feffer and published by Seven Stories Press. This book was released on 2003-09-20 with total page 204 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Korean peninsula, divided for more than fifty years, is stuck in a time warp. Millions of troops face one another along the Demilitarized Zone separating communist North Korea and capitalist South Korea. In the early 1990s and again in 2002-2003, the United States and its allies have gone to the brink of war with North Korea. Misinterpretations and misunderstandings are fueling the crisis. "There is no country of comparable significance concerning which so many people are ignorant," American anthropologist Cornelius Osgood said of Korea some time ago. This ignorance may soon have fatal consequences. North Korea, South Korea is a short, accessible book about the history and political complexites of the Korean peninsula, one that explores practical alternatives to the current US policy: alternatives that build on the remarkable and historic path of reconciliation that North and South embarked on in the 1990s and that point the way to eventual reunification.
