Download or read book Scotland s Northwest Frontier written by Alister Farquhar Matheson and published by Troubador Publishing Ltd. This book was released on 2014-08-28 with total page 600 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The western coastal lands of the Northern Highlands are squeezed between the northern Hebrides and Drumalban, the mountainous spine of Highland Scotland. This is a region justly famed for some of the finest and most unspoilt scenery in the British Isles – but what happened here in times past? Scotland's Northwest Frontier provides the answer. For a long time, this area was a frontier zone between the medieval kingdoms of Norway and Scotland, and then between the Gaelic Lords of the Isles and the Scottish kings. In the 18th century, this remote seaboard was Britain’s ‘Afghanistan’, a dangerous region often beyond the control of London and Edinburgh. It was the last hiding place of Bonnie Prince Charlie before his escape to France after his Jacobite army had been crushed on Culloden Moor. A land of clans and lost causes, this is the story of powerful lords and warrior chiefs, Presbyterian soldiers of the Covenant and Hanoverian redcoats, Highland Clearances, road and railway builders, whisky smugglers and opium traders, from Viking times to the beginning of the 21st century. Scotland's Northwest Frontier is the entertaining story of what was for long a lawless region, followed through eight turbulent centuries. Backed by comprehensive appendices and glossary, this is one for the fireside, a travelling companion and an invaluable reference source for the bookshelf. Scotland's Northwest Frontier will appeal to those interested in Scottish history, and people who descend from Scottish clans and families.
Download or read book Forgotten Frontiers written by Dorothy Dudley and published by Forgotten Books. This book was released on 2017-12-02 with total page 508 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Forgotten Frontiers: Dreiser and the Land of the Free James, Herman Melville, Ambrose Bierce, Henry Adams; one could write of Stephen Crane, Sandburg, Masters, Frost, Carnevali, Carlos Williams, Charlie Chaplin; and of others named and nameless, if one knew them; wherever and whenever the grace of unaccustomed intellectual wildness, rare as radium in these States, has descended on them. Then there is another thing - the enterprise of Dreiser. Enterprise of an engineer - no looking back wards, no regrets, except where like correctives they are to be used in the new plans. This is tonic. It makes a journey of inquiry for one more intimate with old worlds than new, for one less ready than the true modern is, to relinquish old loves until they have receded irrevocably into distance. The speech of the past, tonal through age, recalling ancient relations, elaborate and seasoned through age - these I used to want back, and not in museums, and libraries, but by some impossible alembic distilled and then fused into American life. I could not be on with the new for not knowing how to forget the old. Discipline was futile. Years ago I tried to face the oncoming scheme; I tried saying to myself: Food, not delectation! Canned food, ham sandwiches, hard-boiled eggs, soft drinks too sweet in drug stores, cup of coffee counter-slung! Food and ice-water! Clothing, not elegance! Cloak and suit trade, ready-made novelties, smart fashions! Clothes, not impeccable fitting garments! Publicity, not privacy! Electric-lighted sleeping porches, lawns, salvia, gladioli, roads and automobiles, no doors, no fences, just vistas forever from publicity into publicity! Not intrigue, not intimacy! Radio, victrolas, not music! Extension, not intention! Sky scrapers, never arcades! Men without women, women without anything! Segregation, not relations!

Download or read book Forgotten Grasslands of the South written by Reed F. Noss and published by Island Press. This book was released on 2012-12-03 with total page 353 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Forgotten Grasslands of the South is the study of one of the biologically richest and most endangered ecosystems in North America. In a seamless blend of science and personal observation, renowned ecologist Reed Noss explains the natural history of southern grasslands, their origin and history, and the physical determinants of grassland distribution, including ecology, soils, landform, and hydrology. In addition to offering fascinating new information about these little-studied ecosystems, Noss demonstrates how natural history is central to the practice of conservation. Although theory and experimentation have recently dominated the field of ecology, ecologists are coming to realize how these distinct approaches are not divergent but complementary, and that pursuing them together can bring greater knowledge and understanding of how the natural world works and how we can best conserve it. This long-awaited work sets a new standard for scientific literature and is essential reading for those who study and work to conserve the grasslands of the South as well as for everyone who is fascinated by the natural world.
Download or read book Following Charcot written by Julien Bogousslavsky and published by Karger Medical and Scientific Publishers. This book was released on 2011 with total page 219 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Jean-Martin Charcot, the iconic 19th century French scientist, is still regarded today as the most famous and celebrated neurologist in the world. Despite the development of strong independent schools of thought in the USA, UK and Germany, his 'Salpêtrière' school has become symbolic of the early development and rise of neurological practice and research. This book presents a fresh look at the origins of nervous system medicine, and at the fate of Charcot's school and pupils. Special emphasis is placed upon the parallels and interactions between developments in neurology and mental medicine, clearly demonstrating that Charcot is not only the father of clinical neurology, but also wielded enormous influence upon the field we would come to know as psychiatry. Providing new insights into the life and work of Charcot and his pupils, this book will make fascinating reading for neurologists, psychiatrists, physicians and historians.

De Katholieke Kerk, zegt hij, schikt zich in de vrije republiek, en zij is er de steun van. In een woord, door te toonen, dat die Kerk voldoet aan al de menschelijke vermogens, dat zij voorziet in alle behoeften en niet alleen den afzonderlijken mecsch maar ook de maatschappij verheft, dat zij bloeit onder alle klimaat en allen regeringsvorm, --levert de protestantsche spreker een levendig uitgewerkt bewijs, dat de Katholieke Kerk waarlijk katholiek, dat zij goddelijk is. Zou dit artikel niet afzonderlijk gedrukt en verspreid kunnen worden? Voor dit geval zouden wij den Schrijver raden, een meer sprekenden titel te kiezen en eenige hoofden te plaatsen in den loop van het stuk. Pius IX en het russische Gouvernement (in de 2e en 3" afl.). Pius IX, die den jeugdigen Mortara onder zijne bescherming genomen heeft, zou Hij zijne Katholieken in Rusland en Polan aan hun lot overlaten? De Paus had het gedoopte Jodenkind, nu een kind van God en van de Kerk, in zijne armen gehouden, ofschoon Goevernementen, afgevaardigden van godsdienstige genootschappen en al de liberale dagbladen en schreeuwers aanhielden op de uitlevering van dat kind: zou Hij dan vreezen, den Tzaar aller Kussen onder de oogen te zien, nu het de zaligheid gold van millioenen zielen?

Download or read book The Bone and Sinew of the Land written by Anna-Lisa Cox and published by PublicAffairs. This book was released on 2018-06-12 with total page 304 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The long-hidden stories of America's black pioneers, the frontier they settled, and their fight for the heart of the nation When black settlers Keziah and Charles Grier started clearing their frontier land in 1818, they couldn't know that they were part of the nation's earliest struggle for equality; they were just looking to build a better life. But within a few years, the Griers would become early Underground Railroad conductors, joining with fellow pioneers and other allies to confront the growing tyranny of bondage and injustice. The Bone and Sinew of the Land tells the Griers' story and the stories of many others like them: the lost history of the nation's first Great Migration. In building hundreds of settlements on the frontier, these black pioneers were making a stand for equality and freedom. Their new home, the Northwest Territory--the wild region that would become present-day Ohio, Illinois, Indiana, Michigan, and Wisconsin--was the first territory to ban slavery and have equal voting rights for all men. Though forgotten today, in their own time the successes of these pioneers made them the targets of racist backlash. Political and even armed battles soon ensued, tearing apart families and communities long before the Civil War. This groundbreaking work of research reveals America's forgotten frontier, where these settlers were inspired by the belief that all men are created equal and a brighter future was possible.

Download or read book Where Cultures Meet written by David J. Weber and published by Rowman & Littlefield Publishers. This book was released on 1997-08-01 with total page 277 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: In Where Cultures Meet, editors Weber and Rausch have collected twenty essays that explore how the frontier experience has helped create Latin American national identities and institutions. Using 'frontier' to mean more than 'border,' Weber and Rausch regard frontiers as the geographic zones of interaction between distinct cultures. Each essay in the volume illuminates the recipro-cal influences of the 'pioneer' culture and the 'frontier' culture, as they contend with each other and their physical environment. The transformative power of frontiers gives them special interest for historians and anthropologists. Delving into the frontier experience below the Rio Grande, Where Cultures Meet is an important collection for anyone seeking to understand fully Latin American history and culture.
