Download or read book Bankers and Empire written by Peter James Hudson and published by University of Chicago Press. This book was released on 2017-04-27 with total page 370 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: From the end of the nineteenth century until the onset of the Great Depression, Wall Street embarked on a stunning, unprecedented, and often bloody period of international expansion in the Caribbean. A host of financial entities sought to control banking, trade, and finance in the region. In the process, they not only trampled local sovereignty, grappled with domestic banking regulation, and backed US imperialism—but they also set the model for bad behavior by banks, visible still today. In Bankers and Empire, Peter James Hudson tells the provocative story of this period, taking a close look at both the institutions and individuals who defined this era of American capitalism in the West Indies. Whether in Wall Street minstrel shows or in dubious practices across the Caribbean, the behavior of the banks was deeply conditioned by bankers’ racial views and prejudices. Drawing deeply on a broad range of sources, Hudson reveals that the banks’ experimental practices and projects in the Caribbean often led to embarrassing failure, and, eventually, literal erasure from the archives.

The Centurion Papers is a thrilling new series of Sherlock Holmes mysteries. Too explosive for publication, kept hidden for a hundred years... until now.

Even as the evidence suggests the victim was killed by fairies, can Holmes finally expose the truth... however dark it might be? The M League Professor Moriarty is dead, but his legacy of evil lives on... Sherlock Holmes and Dr Watson are woken by the most macabre delivery to Baker Street - a boy left for dead, with the letter M scored into his back.

Download or read book The Life and Legacy of Allen Subdivision written by Deloris M. Harpool and published by AuthorHouse. This book was released on 2022-11-18 with total page 170 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The Life and Legacy of Allen Subdivision describes an African American community from its inception, where over ninety bustling African American-owned businesses emerged. Beginning in the early 1900s, in spite of segregation, discrimination, disparities in economic opportunities, and other Jim Crow practices, this little-known community in Tallahassee, Florida, thrived and produced African Americans and descendants of remarkable success. Through personal accounts of residents, oral history of neighborhood elders and official historical records, the author illuminates alluring messages about the value of this modest neighborhood in the American landscape. Inspired by 2008 city and county plans for urban redevelopment, including commemorative markers in the south central section of Tallahassee, this work is rare. With the launching of the civic project, it became evident that no deep-dive review of the cherished ‘Allen’ neighborhood had ever been published or made available to policy makers and civic planners. The untold, rich legacy of the once significantly independent community and its effect on its sons and daughters and their descendants required action. Deloris M. Harpool, who grew up in the humble neighborhood, accepted the challenge to document the unique character and consequential effects of her treasured home place. The book is enriched with a fascinating blend of humorous and yet sobering reported experiences reminiscent of life in ‘Allen.’ It presents early developers and environmental conditions, superstitions, myths and traditions that existed as a part of the neighborhood experience. It reveals medical home remedies, home-grown foods, ‘make do’ meals, meatless sandwiches, make-shift toys and games, favorite sweet treats, jokes, nicknames, coping strategies, fun experiences, and other aspects of life common to many individuals raised in African American communities. This rendering emphasizes the significance of the role of neighborhood churches, Black-owned businesses and an informal, yet integral relationship with Florida A&M University. It describes loyalty and loving relations among residents, collective discipline and protection of children, and sage advice of the elders in meeting social and economic challenges. It further describes the community’s little-known involvement in the civil rights movement and the achievement of ‘Allen’ residents. As a bonus, this depiction offers a roadmap for acceptance of ethic experiences and contributions in civic planning. Discover how an iron-clad, close-knit village enabled individual members to achieve lasting success and the lessons we can learn from its legacy and social determinants of success. “The author... takes me down an entertaining and amusing memory lane...She reminds me of how blessed I am to have grown up in a similar community. This work speaks to the important role such a community played in the development of resilient, productive and contributing African American citizens.” —Barbara R. Cotton, D.A., history professor emeritus, Florida A&M University, Tallahassee, Florida “In this book, Harpool illustrates that it truly took a village, including once thriving neighborhood businesses, to produce the fine caliber of African American leaders of today. This type of history is lost in many communities. Her work documents a great legacy and preserves history for future generations.” —Dianne Williams-Cox, commissioner, City of Tallahassee, Florida
