Download or read book By the Golden Gate Or San Francisco written by Joseph Carey and published by . This book was released on 2015-06-30 with total page 298 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from By the Golden Gate or San Francisco: The Queen City of the Pacific Coast, With Scenes and Incidents Characteristic of Its Life This work now offered to the public owes its origin largely to the following circumstance: On the return of the author from California and the city of Mexico, in November, 1901, his friend, the Rev. John N. Marvin, President of the Diocesan Press, asked him to contribute some articles to the Diocese of Albany. From these "sketches" of San Francisco this book has taken form. There are chapters in the volume which have not appeared in print hitherto, and such portions as have been already published have been thoroughly revised. Much of the work has been written from copious notes made in San Francisco, and impressions received there naturally give a local colouring to it in its composition.

Download or read book Latinos at the Golden Gate written by Tomás F. Summers Sandoval Jr. and published by UNC Press Books. This book was released on 2013-08-01 with total page 254 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Born in an explosive boom and built through distinct economic networks, San Francisco has a cosmopolitan character that often masks the challenges migrants faced to create community in the city by the bay. Latin American migrants have been part of the city's story since its beginning. Charting the development of a hybrid Latino identity forged through struggle--latinidad--from the Gold Rush through the civil rights era, Tomas F. Summers Sandoval Jr. chronicles the rise of San Francisco's diverse community of Latin American migrants. This latinidad, Summers Sandoval shows, was formed and made visible on college campuses and in churches, neighborhoods, movements for change, youth groups, protests, the Spanish-language press, and business districts. Using diverse archival sources, Summers Sandoval gives readers a panoramic perspective on the transformation of a multinational, multigenerational population into a visible, cohesive, and diverse community that today is a major force for social and political activism and cultural production in California and beyond.

Daniel asks her to return to him, and love-struck Richal is happy to oblige. She gives up her job in Dublin and begins a new life with the handsome Daniel.

They eventually start a family, but soon after, the cracks in their whirlwind marriage begin to show.

Their relationship becomes so estranged that they are now total strangers with four young children. As Daniel battles to keep his fortune, he uses the kids as pawns to ensure his wealth. From this point on, Richals nightmare battle is only beginning as she struggles to hold on to her beloved children and leave her abusive marriage behind.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: A team of leading American military historians here investigate the factors that shaped the United States Army in the nineteenth century. Throwing new light on its history, this deeply researched book explores a mulitplicity of themes. These include the social structure, command system and relationship with civil power which are all important in assessing its efficiency and behaviour in war; and the way the army is depicted in military literature and cinema which affects its social portrait. Deliberately exploring neglected themes, this key work includes discussion on: * the roles of the many volunteer colonels in the Mexican War, 1846-48 * Robert Wettemann and the alleged 'isolation' of the US Army in the nineteenth century * John Ford's famous 'cavalry trilogy' of motion pictures. Containing so much food for thought, for students of US history and military history this is an entertaining as well as instructional book.

This book was released on 2015-01-08 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the Golden Gate to Mexico City: The U.S. Army Topographical Engineers in the Mexican War tells the story of how the engineers performed a valuable combat support mission in America's first foreign war, making reconnaissances, planning routes of advance, and charting little-known terrain. Adrian G. Traas describes the engineers' decisive roles in the campaigns in the Southwest and Mexico, providing the new nation with maps of newly acquired lands and vast amounts of valuable scientific findings. He also shows that they were on the cutting edge of nineteenth-century technology as they laid the communication routes that would tie the nation together. Traas has written a compelling story for today's military students with an interest in not only the account of frontier adventures but also the influence of terrain on campaigns and battles, the principles of geographical intelligence in our era of computer and satellite technology still viable.
